tabularx inside tcolorbox not centered properly
I am trying to put a tabularx inside a tcolorbox but it's not centered properly, it's shifted slightly to the right. Here is the code I am using. I am using figure
environment for the caption. Is there a better way to do this?

it is centred but as yiou have forced all the columns to be the same width, entries with smaller structures have more space around them. (if you used |Y|Y|Y|Y| so it added rules it would be clearer that the table itself is centred but there is white space inside the first column

Since line breaking inside the cells is neither expected nor desirable, and since the natural widths of the four columns are quite different, using a tabularx
environment seems wrong. I suggest you use a tabular*
environment instead.

@Tanton - One of the main differences betweentabularx
andtabular*
is that whereas the former works by adjusting the widths of the columns, the latter works by adjusting the amount of intercolumn whitespace. Since there is no reason for why the 4 columns should occupy equal widths, thetabular*
environments seems to be the more natural device to employ.
