Hello Wolfgang,
Use the “textwidth” key but keep in mind with the linecorrection you can use split tables, for tables which use indent from \startnarrower and split across pages you can use tabulate.
I am afraid I don't get the full meaning of your answer. When I use tabulate, I have exactly the same problem as I have with TABLEs: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- \starttext \startnarrower \input tufte \starttabulate[|l|l|] \HL \NC format \NC meaning \NC\NR \HL \NC c \NC centered \NC\NR \NC l \NC left aligned \NC\NR \NC r \NC right aligned \NC\NR \NC w(1cm) \NC one line, fixed width \NC\NR \NC p(2cm) \NC paragraph, lines broken to fixed width \NC\NR \NC cg(.) \NC align on a character \NC\NR \HL \stoptabulate \stopnarrower \stoptext ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (and I couldn't find a key from setuptabulate that changes the width of the table) Patrick
