Remarks
The * widths in the command »Column« allow dynamic cell widths. For that the total width of the table must be set and the attribute (on Table) stretch must be set to max.
The widths of the columns are calculated as follows: first the absolute widths are taken into account. After that, the * columns are distributed across the remaining space. The
numbers before the * denote the fraction of the space. In the example below the third column gets 1/6 of the remaining width, the fourth column get 5/6.
