[NTG-context] Column distance in natural tables

22 May 2012

      Hi,

How to set the distance in a generic way between individual columns
without breaking the frame rules? A workaround is to set the roffset
of all columns, except the last one, but that's not very universal.

\startsetups table
  \setupTABLE [frame=off, topframe=on]

  % generic, but frame rules are interrupted
  \setupTABLE [columndistance=1cm]

  % works, but ugly hard coded #columns
  %\setupTABLE [column] [1,2] [roffset=1cm]
\stopsetups

\starttext
  \bTABLE [setups=table]
    \bTR\bTD aaaaaa \eTD\bTD bbbbbbbb \eTD\bTD ccccccc \eTD\eTR
    \bTR\bTD dddd   \eTD\bTD eeeeeeee \eTD\bTD fffff   \eTD\eTR
    \bTR\bTD ggggg  \eTD\bTD hhhh     \eTD\bTD iiiiii  \eTD\eTR
  \eTABLE
\stoptext
