How do I create a table like this in ConTeXt?
In LaTeX, a tabular environment produces a box which then can be part of another tabular. I tried to do the same with ConTeXt, but failed. Can someone tell me how to produce http://mail.rna.nl/~gerben/latex-table.pdf with ConTeXt? Thanks, G
Hi Gerben, There are different options. first of all I would have a look into \bTABLE ...\eTABLE constructs see enatab.pdf manual. secondly you might use \starttabulate ..\stoptabulate look at MAPS22 Voorjaar 1999, pp 153. Willi Gerben Wierda wrote:

That link did not work, but going one dir higher and then selecting worked. Thanks. G

Having looked at these examples, I wonder if there is also a good description somewhere. For instance, how do I influence borders of cells? Can I have a dashed border (as in my LaTeX example which btw uses hvdashline.sty). G

\starttabulate[|l|k2c|r|] \NC this and that \NC left and right \NC here and there \NC \NR
Why 4(!) \NC's here? There are only 3 columns... Well, in prinziple two \NC would be enough "col1 \NC col2 \NC col3 \NR"; but the idea is seeming as follows: anytime a new column begins/ends the \NC is added, add it always when you would add a vertical line in a table (though nice-looking tables shan't have that many "|").

interesting thought -) as with most table mechanism that use halign, some separator is needed; also, in context actually there are (hidden) extra columns used for spacing issues; i once had a bunch of macros that took the ibm line/corner chars as separators, kind of ascii wysiwyg Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

I did look at that. I cannot see how that helps me recreating the example I posted, sorry. G PS. Is it me or is tabulating in ConTeXt a bit counterintuitive? For instance, take the exampl efrom MAPS: \starttabulate[|l|k2c|r|] \NC this and that \NC left and right \NC here and there \NC \NR Why 4(!) \NC's here? There are only 3 columns... G

to keep it kind of code-compatible with the starttable mechanism where each column is separated by NC or VL or .. ; just consider NC to be a column boundary mark Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
