Zu beurteilende Tabelle
Critique about the table
- The grid encloses the entire table. This should be avoided, because it breaks up the data. (Use white spaces or rules under the header and over the footer instead) (Page 136).
- Time based data should be arranged in columns from left to right rather than in rows from top to bottom (Page 142).
- Groups and Breaks: All the content is put in one table. Split the table instead in all the data groups that belong together (Page 143).
- No whitespacing between different groups of the table (Page 144).
- Headers are not repeated over the different group sections (Page 144).
