Tables query (MKII, latest beta)
I have a simple, multi-page table that is currently defined by \setuptables[bodyfont=9pt] \starttables[|l|p(15pc)|] The problem is that the text in the cells on the right that have more than one line is set almost solid and is often too close to the next row. So how can I adjust/control the vertical spacing both between and within rows? \setuptables[bodyfont=9pt,\setupinterlinespace[line=2.4ex]] gets: ! Missing \endcsname inserted. <to be read again> \def \doifnextoptionalelse #1#2->\def \nextoptionalcommandyes {#1}\def \nextoptio... <argument> \setupinterlinespace [line \dosetvalue #1#2->\@EA \def \csname #1#2 \endcsname \p!doassign ...r \else \@EAEAEA #1\fi \fi {#2}{#3} {#4} \xprocesscommaitem ...@relax@ #1==\empty \@relax@ \@EAEAEA \xprocesscommaite... ... l.397 ...font=9pt,\setupinterlinespace[line=2.8ex] ] I apologize if this is a FAQ: my review of the wiki and of core- tab.tex has been most instructive, but not on this issue.

You could use this for the time being but I hope myself Hans can fix the spacing. \starttable[|l|b{\setupinterlinespace[line=2.8ex]}p(.6\textwidth)|] Wolfgang
Thanks, Wolfgang! This is a great improvement---here is no crowding any cell now. There remain , however, a few (many fewer) crowded rows. So here’s hoping that Hans can get to this and make the required adjustments. Alan On Mar 26, 2009, at 14;12,11 , Wolfgang Schuster wrote:

i'll upload a fix (wolfgang: at some point we can clean up this table module, merge everything into one file erc etc; then i can also redo the coloring of cells) ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
