Hi Fabrice, replace the following command: \startxtable[align={middle,lohi}] It works now. It is rather weird that the total width for the table is 1.7cm and one of its cells is 3.5cm. I hope it helps, Pablo
Thank you. Fabrice

Hi Pablo,
Thank you, I thought that indicating width = 1.7cm, the size of the cells
would have been 1.7cm.

Hi Fabrice,
replace the following command:

You’re correct and what Pablo meant is the textwidth option for natural tables where you can set a width for the whole table. The big space below the table in your example is a wrong calculation of the cell height for the merged cells. The height is probably wrong because ConTeXt uses the width of the first column (and not of all merged cells) to determine the height. \starttext \startxtable[width=2cm] \startxrow \startxcell Column 1 \stopxcell \startxcell Column 2 \stopxcell \stopxrow \startxrow \startxcell[nx=2] Merged column \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable \stoptext When your goal of the merged cells is to create a caption for the table you can use the “nonumber” keyword for placetable to get rid of the label and counter of the float. \starttext \startplacetable[location={nonumber,right},title={A long title for this short table}] \startxtable[width=2cm] \startxrow \startxcell Column 1 \stopxcell \startxcell Column 2 \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable \stopplacetable \input knuth \stoptext Wolfgang
