Re: [NTG-context] table layout

9 Nov 2007

      Hi Wolfgang,

nice patch. I just looked at the comparison of the table type
(http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Tables_Overview). There it says:

tabulate problems: very limited

Add some more stuff and we can change this to 'limited' ;)

Best wishes, Peter

Hi Peter,
your solution would be really a option but I hope the real bugs will be
fixed,
I see :)
So things could be worse. You have
- a workaround (?)
 - a complete minimal description/example of the problem (as starting
point for Hans)
 - some good hints/solution for fixing
If you add some patience this all looks quite promising. ;)
Best wishes, Peter
Hi Peter,
most of the are also possible with the tabulate environment and I was able
to get a nearly perfect result (a few minor spacing problems) with it.
