I want to make a cell overflow to the left.
In this Question:
Allowing cell to overflow without affecting indentation
we learn how to make an overflow to the right(row 1), but I cannot manage to make the box expand to the left.
\begin{table}[H]
\begin{tabular}{p{1.2cm}p{2.8cm}l}
Col1 & Col2 & Col3 \\
\cmidrule( r){1-1} \cmidrule(lr){2-2} \cmidrule(lr){3-3}
\makebox[0pt][l]{impressively long} & & short \\
short & & impressively long} \\
short & foo & impressively long} \\
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
How can I make the cells in row 2 and 3 of the last column make use of the second column. I prefer a solution with boxes as in the aforementioned post, but any simple solution will do.
\hfill\makebox[0pt][r]{impressively long}
tabular
column 3r
. On the other hand, if the alignment of col3 must remainl
, then maybe change the0pt
of her advice to some finite length, like5ex
.
