[Tex/LaTex] Multirow not working with longtabu

longtabumultirow

I'm having trouble getting the multirow working with longtabu. The problem is the Time column is not vertically centering as I would expect using a multirow. Also I would like to use a multirow on the activity name and activity info columns. Each of these columns should span 3 rows. Any help is much appreciated!

Best Answer

The errors are from the fact that only Time label is wrapped by \multirow{3} in the OP. There are other labels in the same row that should be wrapped by multirow{2}, for examples turbing depth, Turbine weight, Liquid rate, and Activity name and Activity info should have been wrapped by \multirow{3}. Further, instead of * for natural width, the text width in this case needs to specify its width to break the lines as shown in the image, otherwise it prints in one single line and hits the margins.

[Tex/LaTex] \multirow and \bigstrut[b] not working together

I don't think you should normally put anything other than the \multirow arguments in the initial cell, nor anything at all in the cells that are spanned. Also you need a \noindent before the table so that the full width table fits on a line.

I don't know if this is the layout you wanted but it doesn't have the big gaps. I just moved the struts to the first column.

\documentclass[]{article}
\usepackage{bigstrut}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{tabularx}


\begin{document}

    \newcolumntype{R}{>{\raggedleft\arraybackslash}X}

    \noindent
    \begin{tabularx}{\linewidth}{X R}

    Column 1 & Column 2 \\ \hline

    1.1\bigstrut[t] & \multirow{2}[2]{*}{2a} \\
    1.2\bigstrut[b] &     \\ \hline 

    1.3\bigstrut[t] & \multirow{3}[2]{*}{2b} \\
    1.4 &   \\
    1.5\bigstrut[b] &   \\ \hline

    1.6\bigstrut & 2c \\ \hline

    \end{tabularx}

Once you have copied all the needed definitions, it mostly works, one use of \midrule generates an error, not sure why looks like some tabu weirdness. I commented it out here but you could use \hline or something, or perhaps in the context of teh full document it works..
