| Mar 24, 2022 at 13:59 | comment | added | Nicholas G | @ChrisDegnen Thanks. Alignment->"." works for the numbers column but the rest of the table is right-aligned. Alignment->{Left,"."} does not work, nor does it if I add one more Left for the third column. The entire table is aligned left, I think. What works is to use the alternating pattern, ->{{Left,"."}}. | |

| Mar 24, 2022 at 12:45 | comment | added | Nicholas G | I suppose that to align by decimal point one could separate the numbers into their integer and decimal components and put them in two columns. It seems somewhat clumsy but that would be the complete answer, no? | |

| Feb 21, 2016 at 17:52 | comment | added | Chris Degnen | You could also put the 2nd & 3rd column together with Row, inside the grid. | |
| Feb 21, 2016 at 17:50 | comment | added | Cham | Wow ! The Frame->All option is nice, as a table in the 3D view ! | |
| Feb 21, 2016 at 17:45 | comment | added | Chris Degnen | See the ItemSize option for Grid. Also using Frame->All to see the grid cells. | |
| Feb 21, 2016 at 17:34 | comment | added | Cham | This solution is doing exactly what I was asking. Thanks a lot ! I'm very tempted to mark it immediately as "THE" solution. Just a question before : what controls the spacing after the numbers, just before their units ? What if I prefer a smaller spacing for the units only ? | |
| Feb 21, 2016 at 17:24 | comment | added | Cham | Appears to work very well. I'll study this... | |
