Hello, could anybody explain, why the "DRAFT" is bigger on the last two pages please? \defineoverlay[Draft][{\scale[factor=max]{\rotate[rotation=60]{~DRAFT~}}}] \setupbackgrounds[page][background=Draft] \starttext \starttables[|l|] \dorecurse{200}{\NC hallo \NC\AR} \stoptables \stoptext Cheers and TIA, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

From the page where \starttables start till the prelast page where the "tables" stop, '~' is "squeezed" somehow. There's also no \strut
I played with \defineoverlay[Draft][{\scale[factor=max] {\rotate[rotation=60]{\framed[strut=no,offset=0pt]{\strut~DRAFT~\strut}}}}] \setupbackgrounds[page][background=Draft] \showstruts \starttext \dorecurse{400}{hallo \crlf} \starttables[|l|] \dorecurse{200}{\NC hallo \NC\AR} \stoptables \showlayout \stoptext present in that lines if you take a closer look. I don't have a clue, but you have good imagination! If you need a solution: use {\ Draft\ } If you need the reason: wait for the expert(s) Mojca

Thanks a lot! I didn't think about this kind of space at all...

I don't need it, but it would certainly be interesting ;) Cheers, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

From looking at it quickly, it seems sometimes the output routine is called when the ~ command has the 'normal' definition, and sometimes when it has TaBlE's definition. These do not produce identical results (~ in TaBlE has the width of a 'zero' digit). I'm not sure why this happens, though. Taco

the meaning of ~ chances inside a table and the last pages are flushed when the table is already typeset; a solution is: \let\normalactivetilde~ \let\normalactivebar | \appendtoks\let~\normalactivetilde\to\everypagebody \appendtoks\let|\normalactivebar \to\everypagebody another solution is to set the meaning of ~ at the table cell level; you may add that to the wiki as a feature reaquest -) 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
