This is probably an easy one, but I couldn't figure it out: I want to set up a tabulation with a whitespace of 0.5 lines between rows. But no matter where I put my \blank, the tabulation always appears as packed. Thanks for your help! (Is there any more elaborate docu on tabulate than the three pages in the manual and the few lines in core-tbl.tex?) Thomas

Hans, thanks for your reply. I works with your minimal example, but not with my file. When I try this \setuptabulate[|w(.3\textwidth)|p|] \starttabulate \NC arrghl \NC barrghl \NC \NR \TB \stoptabulate I get this error: check : missing or ungrouped '=' after '|w(.3\tekstbreedte )|p|' in li ne 53 (@@tttabulate::) Runaway argument? !

Any idea what this could mean?

\setuptabulate[|w(.3\textwidth)|p|]
this setup command expects key/value pairs, and since the = is missing, tex sees a \textwidth (being a dimension register) and therefore expects some assignment Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Thomas,
set up a tabulation with a whitespace of 0.5 lines between rows. But no
Once upon a time I made a note in the article by Hans Hagen published in the MAPS 22, 1999. The article deals with all kind of possibilities of the \starttabulate \stoptabulate environment. The note is: \TB[medium] This command inserts blank between tabulate rows. The \setuptabulate[] command has an option inner=command. Inner is executed before the first column is typset. - May be this is also an option for your problem. Willi
Willi, thanks, you made me discover MAPS, which I had not known before! Seems to be a lot of interesting stuff in there, and thank god I was born in Aachen, so Dutch isn't too difficult for me... But alas, the module must have changed since 1999--not even the minimal examples from the article you mentioned work. \setuptabulate[inner={\blank[big]}] gives a blank line before my first row, but not between rows. Mmmh - maybe a bug in core-tbl.tex? Probably Hans is the only one to know... Best Thomas

Indeed, the MAPS is always a pleasure to read.

I was born in France, but french is definitely giving me a hard time when reading.

This does not contradict the article in the MAPS 22. Do you have your problems solved? Patrick -- Silent is the goldfish in its bowl
I feel like a complete fool now. I had given up, assuming it couldn't be done. When your post arrived, I had a last look at my file to copy the error message into this mail--and now it works! I guess what I did wrong was to REPLACE the \NR with \TB instead of ADDING it. So for whoever might find it useful: this works: \starttabulate[|w=0.3\textwidth|p|] \NC arrggl \NC barrgl \NC \NR \TB[big] \NC barrgl \NC arrgl \NC \NR \TB[big] \stoptabulate Little by little, I'm learning how to use this wonderful tool.
