Hi all,
Attached is an example showing my misunderstanding about grid alignment. The attached works as expected when \setuplayout[grid=no] is used or the 'Author table' is commented out. The inclusion of the little table in the text is really just to convince myself that I can have a table with the grid enabled.
\placeongrid{% or e.g. \placeongrid[{broad,high}]{% your table } vit
Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Randall
