Strange table cell spacing

[Stuartpool]

I have a table that for some reason is spacing info differently on different rows. 

 

In the image below the £200 per module text will not sit in the cells the same way, everything in it is identical and I cant for the life of me work it out. 

 

Does anyone have any ideas?

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums.

One of them appears to be center-aligned vertically, and the other top-aligned. That's where I would start looking.

Or, if you enable Text > Show Special Characters you might find that the one that looks top-aligned might have 3 text lines rather than 2.

Thanks, Walt. I looked at both of these, and there was no joy from what I could see.

Probably would need to see more details then, perhaps including a sample .afpub  document. But at a minimum, the Character and Paragraph panels for both cells when the text cursor is in them.

Look at the Paragraph's vertical alignment. Here it is Top Aligned:

And here it is Centre Aligned:

So few interesting things have happened. Old Bruce checked yours, and they are all aligned centre, so not that. But when I copied the table to a new doc to put on here it magically fixed the issue. So I thought I'd do that for each tablTest file.afpube, but every time I do the second one, it crashes.

Then there is the posibility of a baseline shift with the Character Panel.

Select all cells in the table

Go into the Paragraph panel and toggle the "Align to Baseline Grid" check box to on then off

The vertical alignment options will then work as expected

Just to complete the options: There is also the Table Panel where text offset may get set for "Insets" and "Vertical Position".

car123 for the win!!! That has indeed fixed the issue for me; thank you! 

 

And thank you, Thomaso, Bruce and Walt, for your help, too. much appreciated, folks!
