Alternating screen/noscreen rows on table
I am required by my customer to alternate between white and screen backgrounds for each row of a table for all tables, and there are lots of tables. I am considering adding code to each row of the table or else doing the thing in metafun/metapost. Advice, anyone? Just to mess things up further she wants the table number etc. above the table and left justified. I can handle that. The customer is not always right but the customer is always the customer. She who pays the bills calls the shots. -- John Culleton Able Indexing and Typesetting Precision typesetting (tm) at reasonable cost. Satisfaction guaranteed. http://wexfordpress.com

Like this you mean? \def\line{\bTR\bTD something \eTD\bTD nice \eTD\eTR} \setupTABLE[r][even][background=screen] \bTABLE \dorecurse{10}{\line} \eTABLE

No, the custumer is always right ;) Mojca

Amazing! But it uses a table writing program I hadn't heard of before. I am printing out a wiki page on natural tables. Is there a manual somewhere? -- John Culleton Able Indexing and Typesetting Precision typesetting (tm) at reasonable cost. Satisfaction guaranteed. http://wexfordpress.com

Hi John, there is http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/enattab.pdf for natural tables. You should also look at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TABLE. To setup the caption (position, layout, numbering) search for \setupcaption(s) in one of the two manuals (ma-cb-en and cont-en). Wolfgang
