I have a table like this: enter image description here

But in some cells of the columns "Prerequisiti" and "Tipologia" I need multirow (like in case of "Node Js | Apache").

I would like that che my cells looks like enter image description here Is it possible?

This is my code 

\begin{center} \begin{tabular}{ |c|c|c|c|c|c| } \hline Framework & Linguaggio & Licenza & Prerequisiti & Tipologia \\ \hline Pybossa & Python & Open Source & & Applicazioni Web \\ CrowdThruth & PHP & Open source & & Applicazioni Web\\ Ionic & Angularjs & Open source & Node.js | Apache Cordova & Native | Cross Platform\\ Appcelerator Titanium & Javascript & Open Source & Node.js | Java & Cross platform \\ Xamarin & C\# & Open Source & Visual Studio & Native | Cross Platform \\ Django & Python & Open Source& Python& Applicazioni web\\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{center}

I use \usepackage{multirow}

but I don't know how to use it properly.

  • if possible also the cells equally high, but it's not fundamental. Commented Aug 29, 2017 at 14:37

One of the nicest (and in my opinion most underrated :-)) features of tabulars is that they can be nested. In this case, if the purpose is just to have some cells with a text written in more rows you can just define a command

\newcommand{\multlinecell}[1]{\begin{tabular}{@{}c@{}}#1\end{tabular}}

The @{} suppresses the spacing on the sides. You can then type your table as

\documentclass{article} \usepackage{array} \newcommand{\multlinecell}[1]{\begin{tabular}{@{}c@{}}#1\end{tabular}} \begin{document} \begin{tabular}{|*{6}{>{\vphantom{\multlinecell{two\\lines}}}c|}} \hline \bfseries Framework \multlinecell{\strut\\\strut}& \bfseries Linguaggio & \bfseries Licenza & \bfseries Prerequisiti & \bfseries Tipologia \\ \hline Pybossa & Python & Open Source & & Applicazioni Web \\ \hline CrowdThruth & PHP & Open source & & Applicazioni Web\\ \hline Ionic & Angularjs & Open source & \multlinecell{Node.js\\Apache Cordova} & \multlinecell{Native\\Cross Platform}\\ \hline \multlinecell{Appcelerator\\Titanium} & Javascript & Open Source & \multlinecell{Node.js\\Java} & Cross platform \\ \hline Xamarin & C\# & Open Source & Visual Studio & \multlinecell{Native\\Cross Platform} \\ \hline Django & Python & Open Source& Python & Applicazioni web \\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{document}

enter image description here

I've used the \multlinecell also in order to force all cells to have the same height.

With use of the makecell packages:

\documentclass{article} \usepackage{geometry}% otherwise the text width is to small \usepackage{makecell} \renewcommand\theadfont{\bfseries\normalsize} \setcellgapes{3pt} %---------------------------------------- for showing page layout \usepackage{showframe} \renewcommand\ShowFrameLinethickness{0.15pt} \renewcommand*\ShowFrameColor{\color{red}} %---------------------------------------------------------------% \begin{document} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{ |*{5}{c|} } \hline \thead{Framework} & \thead{Linguaggio} & \thead{Licenza} & \thead{Prerequisiti} & \thead{Tipologia} \\ \hline Pybossa & Python & Open Source & & Applicazioni Web \\ \hline CrowdThruth & PHP & Open source & & Applicazioni Web\\ \hline Ionic & Angularjs & Open source & \makecell{Node.js\\Apache Cordova} & \makecell{Native\\Cross Platform}\\ \hline \makecell{Appcelerator\\Titanium} & Javascript & Open Source & \makecell{Node.js\\ Java} & Cross platform \\ \hline Xamarin & C\# & Open Source & Visual Studio & \makecell{Native\\Cross Platform} \\ \hline Django & Python & Open Source& Python & Applicazioni web \\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \end{document}

enter image description here

Addendum:
Today, when tabularray package is available, I would write your table as follows:

\documentclass{article} \usepackage{geometry} % otherwise the size of \textwidth is to small \usepackage{xcolor} \usepackage{tabularray} \begin{document} \begin{center} \begin{tblr}{colspec = { *{5}{X[c, m, cmd=\linespread{0.84}\relax]} }, row{1} = {font=\bfseries, abovesep = 4pt}, row{2-Z} = 7ex, hlines = {gray!30}, vlines = {gray!30} } Framework & Linguaggio & Licenza & Prerequisiti & Tipologia \\ Pybossa & Python & Open Source & & Applicazioni Web \\ CrowdThruth & PHP & Open source & & Applicazioni Web \\ Ionic & Angularjs & Open source & Node.js Apache Cordova & Native Cross Platform \\ Appcelerator Titanium & Javascript & Open Source & Node.js Java & Cross platform \\ Xamarin & C\# & Open Source & Visual Studio & Native Cross Platform \\ Django & Python & Open Source & Python & Applicazioni web \\ \end{tblr} \end{center} \end{document}

where tblr is defined in tabularray package. Above MWE gives:

Here is a solution based on makecell, with some colour, and equal height rows (by trial and error):

\documentclass[svgnames, table]{article} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage{array, makecell, booktabs} \usepackage{xcolor} \newcommand\mystrut{\rule[-2ex]{0pt}{24pt}} \begin{document} \begin{center} \sffamily\renewcommand\theadfont{\normalsize\bfseries} \setcellgapes{5pt}\makegapedcells \setlength\tabcolsep{3pt} \setlength{\fboxsep}{0pt} \arrayrulecolor{Gainsboro} \fbox{\begin{tabular}{ *{5}{c|}c}%{ |*{5}{c!{\color{Gainsboro}\vrule width0.4pt}}c} \thead{Framework} & \thead{Linguaggio} & \thead{Licenza} & \thead{Prerequisiti} & \thead{Tipologia} \\ \Xhline{0.4pt} \mystrut Pybossa & Python & Open Source & & Applicazioni Web \\ \hline \mystrut CrowdThruth & PHP & Open source & & Applicazioni Web \\ \hline Ionic & Angularjs & Open source & \makecell{Node.js \\ Apache Cordova} & \makecell{Native \\ Cross Platform}\\ \hline \makecell{Appcelerator \\ Titanium} & Javascript & Open Source & \makecell{Node.js\\ Java} & Cross platform \\ \hline Xamarin & C\# & Open Source & Visual Studio & \makecell{Native \\Cross Platform} \\ \hline \mystrut Django & Python & Open Source & Python & Applicazioni web \\\arrayrulecolor{black} \end{tabular}} \end{center} \end{document}

Here is a solution with {NiceTabular} of nicematrix

\documentclass{article} \usepackage{geometry} \usepackage{nicematrix} \begin{document} \begin{center} \begin{NiceTabular}{ *{5}{X[c, m]} }[hvlines,rules/color=gray!50,cell-space-limits=2pt] \RowStyle{\bfseries} Framework & Linguaggio & Licenza & Prerequisiti & Tipologia \\ Pybossa & Python & Open Source & & Applicazioni Web \\ CrowdThruth & PHP & Open source & & Applicazioni Web \\ Ionic & Angularjs & Open source & Node.js Apache Cordova & Native Cross Platform \\ Appcelerator Titanium & Javascript & Open Source & Node.js Java & Cross platform \\ Xamarin & C\# & Open Source & Visual Studio & Native Cross Platform \\ Django & Python & Open Source & Python & Applicazioni web \\ \end{NiceTabular} \end{center} \end{document}
