Dear ConTeXt users, I have a question (well, it was not really my question in the beginning, but I could not find any answers). The first tabulate gives me rules, the second does not. Which would not harm if this is documented. But in the MAPS article mentioned recently and in the up-to-date the examples clearly show that \HL should give me a horizontal line. What is going on? %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \starttext \starttabulate[|l|p|] \HR \NC small \NC They say, small is beautiful. \NC \NR \HR \NC medium \NC It seems that the medium is the message. \NC \NR \HR \NC large \NC Large T||shirts are always sold out. \NC \NR \HR \stoptabulate \starttabulate[|l|p|] \HL \NC small \NC They say, small is beautiful. \NC \NR \HL \NC medium \NC It seems that the medium is the message. \NC \NR \HL \NC large \NC Large T||shirts are always sold out. \NC \NR \HL \stoptabulate \stoptext %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Patrick -- nothing here
Hi Patrick

I tried your example and indeed there are no horizontal lines in the second tabulate. - I checked then may latest document, where I have such tabulations included. And indeed there are no horizontal lines too. The mentioned document was compiled on 19-09-2003 before the update to the latest beta version on 20-09-2003. - Unnoticed this problem was already present in the previous beta-version. Willi
Hello Willi,

OK, thanks for your answer. So I hope that Hans gets this note and resolves the problem.... :-) Patrick -- Silent is the goldfish in its bowl

(i added a few more options like grid based lines and some settings and somehow this got messed up)
it seems still a bit messed up. I have tried 2003.9.24 (not your patch) and the above gives me small They say... ------------------- medium It seems... ------------------- large Large T.... instead of ------------------- small They say... ------------------- medium It seems... ------------------- large Large T.... ------------------- Patrick -- You are your own rainbow!

Also here with the beta of 24.09.2003 there is no horizontal line before the first row and after the last row. Willi
