Hello,
Code below shows some behaviour I cannot explain (csv file attached):
- If I run the code below as is, I get what I want, except that the header line of the table does not repeat at the top of each page.
Hi Geert, this is the standard and intended behavior (documented on page 10 from xtables-mkiv.pdf).
- Changing "split=yes" to "split=repeat" in the setupxtable gives me repeating headers, but the table starts at the second page, leaving the first page with only the text line and all the rest as blank spaces.
This is a known bug, already reported at the devel mailing list (https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/dev-context/2020/003694.html).
- Placing the table in a float by activating the 3 commented lines gives me an error ("extra } or forgotten endgroup") pointing to the external figure in my page header overlay. Replacing the \placefigure..... in the page header by ordinary text makes the error go away, but is no solution, since I need the company logo picture there, and even then with no error, the headers do not repeat.
Well, these are different issues.
- With the table in a float, I manage to get repeating headers when I change to "split=yes" and "headers=repeat" in the \setupxtable, but I still get the abovementioned error as soon as I want to put my figure back in the page header......
My guess: an alternative approach would be to use layers (and adapting the topspace to the layer on the top of the page). Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
