Hi all,
Forwarding this from c.t.t. It looks like perhaps the OP's code is correct and something in ConTeXt is wrong (at least I cannot find anything wrong with the example code, even with \setupcolors[state=start], I get no background color). Perhaps somebody who has actually used table backgrounds can help?
I hope this can help; see chapter "Color and background" in cont-eni.pdf %------------------ \setupcolors[state=start] %% useful: default=stop \setupbackground[state=start] %% useless: default=start \starttext \placetable {Just a table.} %% from cont-eni.pdf :``The command \background expects %% an argument. Because a table is `grouped' it will generate %% by itself and no extra braces are necessary.`` \background \starttable[|c|c|c|] \HL \VL red \VL green \VL blue \VL \AR \VL cyan \VL magenta \VL yellow \VL \AR \HL \stoptable \stoptext %--------------------------- luigi
