I looked at your example. I ran your example, and on my installation, it has the same problem as I described. I have included a PDF file of my original sample file, and also the PDF generated from your example. What version of ConTeXt are you using? On my installation of context, columns are still coming out "ugly" as you will see in the PDF t1.pdf. In t2.pdf you'll see the problem shows up in the table labelled "Good". The "Good" refers to the row in bold, not to the row above it. David On Sun, Sep 30, 2018 at 07:44:12PM -0400, Aditya Mahajan wrote:

Full example at the bottom.
I'm making a table. So far so good.
Every so often I want to make something like a section header.
Regular table rows are like this:
\bTR\bTC \eTC\bTC NightShift \eTC\bTC Tension Lines 146 - 150 \eTC\eTR
For the section headers, I do this, and they look the way I want:
\bTR\bTC 30. \eTC \bTC[nc=2,align=center,style=] \bf{Foo Bar} \eTC\eTR
You can also use
\bTC[nc=2, align=middle, style=bold]
But then the regular lines have ugly line breaks and suddenly the column size of column 3 is squeezed. This shouldn't be, we have the whole page to work with.
I don't really see the difference in column sizes between the two cases. See attached (I simplified and cleaned the example a little)
