Hello, I'm trying to get nested descriptions (using "tab") to form a "cascade". The result should look like: AAA ababababababab ababababababab BBB ababababab ababababab CCC ababab ababab <--> indent (margin?) of the first nested description in relation to its parent should equal width of parent's head (+ distance?), i.e. width of "AAA ", <--> indent (margin?) of the second nested description in relation to its parent should equal width of parent's head (+ distance?), i.e. width of "BBB ", <------> so it should be width of "AAA " + 'width of "BBB " in total. I'm not able to achieve this. My code so far is (and I also played with various combinations of alternative, margin, hang, indent...): ---- \starttext A \bgroup \setuptab[headstyle={\bold\tt},sample=123,width=fit,alternative=left] \starttab{abc} \input knuth \starttab{def} \input knuth \stoptab \stoptab \egroup \bgroup \setuptab[headstyle={\bold\tt},sample=123456,width=fit,alternative=hanging] \starttab{ghijkl} \input knuth \starttab{mnopqr} \input knuth \stoptab \stoptab \egroup \stoptext ---- - Paragraphs of "abc" and "def": size of indentation of the paragraphs is good in relation to width of head, but paragraph "def" is not "cascaded". - Paragraphs "ghijkl" and "mnopqr" are "cascaded" well; but width of (margin?) is any - it is not related to the width of the sample text. So how to combine both approaches to get the desired result? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.
