Hi all,
the background mechanism of tabulations is quite simplistic: it extends only to the first line of a cell irrespective of its length. Example:
······································································· \starttext \starttabulate[|p|r|] \CM [red] \input knuth \NC was said by The Don \NC \AR \stoptabulate \stoptext ·······································································
Is there a way to get the whole cell covered? (Textbackgrounds only color the area where text is, not the entire cell.)
The TABLE macros are more flexible than tabulate. (Untested) \startsetups table:setup \setupTABLE[frame=off] \setupTABLE[r][1][background=color, color=red, width=0.5\hsize] \stopsetups \startTABLE[setups={table:setup}] \NC \input knuth \NC was said by the Don \NC \NR \stopTABLE Aditya
