What's the reaosn for this behaviour? Try: \starttext \startbuffer \start \setupTABLE[frame=on] \bTABLE\bTR\bTD text \eTD\eTR\eTABLE \stop \stopbuffer \framed[offset=overlay]{\getbuffer} \startbuffer \start \setupTABLE[frame=on] \setupTABLE[c][1][align=right] \bTABLE\bTR\bTD text \eTD\eTR\eTABLE \stop \stopbuffer \framed[offset=overlay]{\getbuffer} \startbuffer \start \setupTABLE[frame=on] \setupTABLE[c][1][align=right] \setupTABLE[c][1][align=right] \bTABLE\bTR\bTD text \eTD\eTR\eTABLE \stop \stopbuffer \framed[offset=overlay]{\getbuffer} \startbuffer \start \setupTABLE[frame=on] \setupTABLE[c][1][align=right] \setupTABLE[c][1][align=right] \setupTABLE[c][1][align=right] \bTABLE\bTR\bTD text \eTD\eTR\eTABLE \stop \stopbuffer \framed[offset=overlay]{\getbuffer} \stoptext

Try:

\starttext \startbuffer \start \setupTABLE[frame=on] \bTABLE\bTR\bTD text \eTD\eTR\eTABLE \stop \stopbuffer \framed[offset=overlay]{\getbuffer}

\startbuffer \start \setupTABLE[frame=on] \setupTABLE[c][1][align=right] \bTABLE\bTR\bTD text \eTD\eTR\eTABLE \stop \stopbuffer \framed[offset=overlay]{\getbuffer}

Hi, you comment chars after your \setupTABLE commands. Your \start/\stop pair can also be removed in your examples, \framed keeps the \setups local. Wolfgang

Got it. Thanks. I didn't know that the chars after setupTABLE could disturb the alignment. On 7/3/07, Wolfgang Schuster wrote:

Hi,

Not exactly. I only framed it in order to demonstrate my problem. You may encounter it even when you don't explicitly frame the table. I became aware of it when I noticed that my legends under the table were slightly off to the left. That means that the code that joins the legend to the table must put an invisible frame around the table. On 7/4/07, Wolfgang Schuster wrote:
