[Qgis-user] Proposal to enhance table handling in QGIS 2.12

[Neumann, Andreas]

Hi, 

At the QGIS meeting in Denmark I discussed with Nyall Dawson some
interesting table improvements in print composer. 

Now he sent me a quote handling the following improvements: 

 	* Better handling of long text content in table cells, including
several text-wrapping or shortening options
 	* Improved background color options for rows/columns, separate for
even/odd rows/columns, header, first/last rows/columns
 	* Data-defined background color options for individual table cells
with expressions

All of the above improvements will help a lot with Atlas serial
printing, but also for individual layouts and will allow very flexible
styling of the tables. 

My employer can finance only one of the three options. I am looking for
organizations financing the other two options. All improvements come
with unit tests and will also be compatible/useful for the upcoming
planned print composer rewrite. 

If you are interested in these improvements and can help financing
these, please contact me. I can then send you the detailed quote. The
quote also contains some mockups how this would look like in the GUI. 

Thanks and greetings,
 Andreas
