I'd like to set a default background color for all the tables in my document. This is what I have tried (using the latest beta): \setuptables[background=color,backgroundcolor=red] \starttext \starttable[|cm|] \HL \NC \bf R \NC \AR \NC A \NC \AR \HL \NC \bot \NC \AR \NC 1 \NC \AR \stoptable \stoptext No red background, though. What am I missing? The next step would be how to use a hatched pattern, but for now I'd be happy with a flat color. Nicola
