\=d in a table: weird behaviour
Hello, It seems that \= and table interact in a strange way in the following example: \starttable[|c|] \NC \=d \NC\NR \stoptable \=d alone works OK. I suggested to use $\rm\overline{d}$ to the one who asked me about it, so it's not really crutial to fix that, I just find it a bit strange. Thanks, Mojca

Thanks, it works this way, but there's no need to add it to the definitions in the core since it's not even in unicode. (The only strange thing is that \=a ("valid" char) or \=d work OK in text flow, but not in the table, where faking the character seems to interact in a strange way with the table typesetting.) But this solution is OK for me, thanks again, Mojca

\startencoding[default]
\definecommand Dmacron {\buildtextaccent\textmacron D} \definecommand dmacron {\buildtextaccent\textmacron d}
\defineaccent = D {\Dmacron} \defineaccent = d {\dmacron}
\stopencoding
\starttable[|c|] \NC test \dmacron\ test\NC\NR \stoptable

that's because \= is defined as a TaBLe command 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
