Natural tables | 2 tables in a page seem to interfere with each other?
Hi, I have 2 "natural tables" in one page and it appears that I have to (manually) reset the columns in the second table, for those columns that I had set specific width. See the example below - Maybe I am missing a trick or two - or this indeed is the desired behavior? Thank you very much. \setupTABLE[r][each][height=0.5cm,frame=on] \setupTABLE[c][each][width=0.6cm] \setupTABLE[r][1][height=0cm,topframe=off] \setupTABLE[c][1][width=5cm] \setupTABLE[c][4,7][width=3cm] \bTABLE ... \eTABLE \setupTABLE[r][each][height=1.3cm,topframe=on] \setupTABLE[c][each][width=1.7cm] \setupTABLE[c][1,4,7][width=1.7cm] %This is to reset from the previous Table \setupTABLE[r][1][height=0cm,topframe=off] \setupTABLE[c][2][width=0.3cm,frame=off] \bTABLE ... \eTABLE - Ramkumar

When you need a certain setup for multiple tables you can put all \setupTABLE commands in a setups-environment and load these settings at the start of the table, e.g. \startsetups [tablesettings] \setupTABLE [r] [1] [..,..=..,..] \setupTABLE [c] [2] [..,..=..,..] \stopsetups \bTABLE[setups=tablesettings] ... \eTABLE When you need individual settings for each table add \start before the setup-commands and \stop after the table, this keeps all setups local to the current table, e.g. \start \setupTABLE [r] [1] [..,..=..,..] \setupTABLE [c] [2] [..,..=..,..] \bTABLE ... \eTABLE \stop Wolfgang
Wolfgang, Thank you very much for the information. Yes, this was the trick I was looking for. I haved added this information in the Wiki - https://wiki.contextgarden.net/TABLE#Settings_for_multiple_TABLEs_in_a_singl... Hope it is accurate enough. Thank you once again! -Ramkumar On Wed, Jun 16, 2021 at 11:41 PM Wolfgang Schuster < wolfgang.schuster.lists@gmail.com> wrote:

\setupTABLE[r][each][height=0.5cm,frame=on] \setupTABLE[c][each][width=0.6cm] \setupTABLE[r][1][height=0cm,topframe=off] \setupTABLE[c][1][width=5cm] \setupTABLE[c][4,7][width=3cm] \bTABLE ... \eTABLE \setupTABLE[r][each][height=1.3cm,topframe=on] \setupTABLE[c][each][width=1.7cm] \setupTABLE[c][1,4,7][width=1.7cm] %This is to reset from the previous Table \setupTABLE[r][1][height=0cm,topframe=off] \setupTABLE[c][2][width=0.3cm,frame=off] \bTABLE ... \eTABLE

\startsetups [tablesettings] \setupTABLE [r] [1] [..,..=..,..] \setupTABLE [c] [2] [..,..=..,..] \stopsetups
\bTABLE[setups=tablesettings] ... \eTABLE
When you need individual settings for each table add \start before the setup-commands and \stop after the table, this keeps all setups local to the current table, e.g.
\start
\setupTABLE [r] [1] [..,..=..,..] \setupTABLE [c] [2] [..,..=..,..]
\bTABLE ... \eTABLE
\stop
