Hey guys, I wanted to see if I'm doing something wrong or if this program can't do what I want it to do. My buddy installed this on my computer and I'm very impressed. It's version 3.1 and from what I hear version 4 is better. But before I spend 130 bucks I want to make sure it has some details that I'm looking for...
Content Layout Cells and Tables Issue
Well, basically at first I was trying to organize my information in a table using frontpage. In frontpage the information looked like this... http://i.imgur.com/L7mSr.jpg
My idea was to basically organize all my information using frontpage and then copy the html of the table and paste it in the "HTML source" part of artisteer. But when I paste the code into artisteer it looked almost nothing like it did in frontpage. Here is an example. http://i.imgur.com/957f8.jpg
I want "Welcome to the Site!" to be at the bottom of that cell but even when I go to Cell > Vertical Align > Bottom it doesn't move at all. So I have a bunch of space between the title and the paragraph and can't seem to do anything about it. To be honest this is driving me nuts.
So I decided to try a different approach and us the "Content Layout" feature but I'm having a problem with this too.
I set up the layout editor like this... http://i.imgur.com/TV6Po.jpg
My idea was to put "Welcome to the Site!" at the top left and then put the change language part in the little box on the top right and just put the rest in the block below that part. However, there seems to be like a "padding" or space in these content layout cells which I don't want.
I'm new to this program so what I would like to know is there any way to get rid of the space between the text and the border in these content layout cells. Here is a picture to show you what I mean http://i.imgur.com/5uoTZ.jpg
I really like this program so far but the inability (or my ignorance) to be able to customize where the text is in cells and this content layout thing really bothers me. Am I doing something wrong or is this just not possible with this program?
If I'm just doing something wrong and you can do what I'm trying to do I will probably buy the full version as soon as I can. If you can't then I probably won't be buying this program. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

The cells probably have some "padding" on them that you will have to remove. Just off to bed now, so you'll have to do a Google Search.

1. Edit->Paragraph section -> Options (it's the down arrow).
2. Paragraph Tab-> Spacing section -> Make the Before and After Fields to have negative values. You need to experiment to get it just right.

Ah wow. I guess I'm just an amateur lol. Thanks for the tip that helped a lot actually.
By the way, I've been very impressed with version 3.1. What are the major differences between 3.1 and 4?

V4 has a lot of new features -- but has reduced support for IE7 and IE8 -- and has been reported to be less stable than V3. Also the out of the box designs are not as nice looking as those in V3.
See http://www.artisteer.com/Default.aspx?content_id=newsletter_2012_10_1&p=c for a full outline of the new features.
