Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ \cellcolor colors over table rules

[sk]

Hi everyone,

I use the command \cellcolor provided by the package colortbl to color some table cells using a gray scale. The problem is, even though I pute rules in the table using \cline, these are not show in some cells.

I attach a small example (.tex) together with the pdf file that ilustrates the problem.

Any hints on how to solve this are appreciated.

Don't use \cline, but \hhline from hhline package:

Code: Select all

it is only a problem with the viewer. Print it and compare
the output.

I thought about the viewer issue but then I printed and not all of them are OK. For example, al the cells in rows 3 and 4 that are colored in both rows do not have a rule.

I will try the hhline package.

EDIT: It seems to be working fine with hhline, I will print and then I will update the post if everything is OK

EDIT2: Printed also looks good. Thanks
