[NTG-context] Set default background color or pattern for tables

30 May 2016

      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.
