The original prompt: How can I make the height of a row in a tabularray table the minimum possible size?
It’s a simple question. Finding an answer is not.
This is where AI tools shine brightly. Old-school online search would lead to dead-ends, consume a lot of time, and only maybe reveal an answer. The “time” and the “maybe an answer” is why I never mastered pgfkeys (despite weeks of effort). It is why I gave up on latex3 (despite weeks of effort). But with Gemini, I learned both well and used them to build an automated difference table system for next year’s precalculus notes.
After a brief wait Gemini speaks.
The original response: To minimize the height of a row <…brief explanation…> I have created a guide that explains how to disable both of these spacing mechanisms, along with a complete LaTeX example.
But nothing happens.
This is not uncommon. Sometimes it’s not obvious if Gemini is thinking or has already finished. Sometimes there is a spinning doohicky. Sometimes not. So I wait.
After leaving the room and returning later, nothing has happened.
A follow-up prompt: Where is the guide? I don’t see it.
The follow-up response: I apologize for that oversight! I mentioned the guide but did not output the file in our chat.
“In response to your query, I created a guide. But I forgot to show you the guide.” That’s the A in AI.
