Hi Willi, sorry for the late reply, was a bit ill Willi Egger wrote:

I'll try that, but the frame coloring is just for debugging. My intention was to control the exact aligning of the table on the page.
bTABLE breaks over pages if you use [split=repeat] together with a\ bTABLEhead...\eTABLEhead.
Using the \rotate command prevents breaking, Possibly you better use \setuppapersize[a4,landscape][a4,landscape], which of course rotates the whole layout including headers and footers.
I didn't think of that, I'll try it out.
I am afraid, that once you include the table into a \placefigure environment, breaking is prevented.
Is there a way to add a caption without \placetable then?
I was able to break a long table with a merged cell as you have it in the first column. However there is possibly a bug, because this column has no "bottomframe". In order to place the "LOW TECH" text correctly you might use a \framed command within the table \bTD[nr=7,align=lohi] \rotate[rotation=90]{\framed[frame=off, offset=.5em,align=center,width=3cm]{Low Tech}}\eTD
I'll try that too. Thanks alot, Karsten -- | ~ Karsten Heymann ~ | Christian-Albrecht-Universität zu Kiel | | Fon: +49 431 880-1186 | Netzwerkteam des Ökologiezentrum | | Fax: +49 431 880-4083 | http://www.ecology.uni-kiel.de | | ----- Selbständiger EDV-Dienstleister im Auftrag des ÖZK ----- |
