width of cell in TABLE

width of cell in TABLE

[Peter Münster]

Hello,

How could I get a column with 0 width (useful for dummy columns).

Example, that shows, that the width is not 0:

\starttext
\setupTABLE[width=0pt, offset=0pt, height=1cm]
\bTABLE
\bTR\bTD\eTD\eTR
\eTABLE
\framed[width=0pt, offset=0pt, height=1cm]{}
\stoptext

Cheers, Peter

span ROWS in \starttables?

[Alan BRASLAU]

Hello,

Is there any mechanism to span ROWS in (\start)tables
similar to column spanning through \use{3}{}?
The aim is to produce a multi-row column entry
as can be done via \bTD[nr=3] in \bTABLE.

Thanks

Alan

\NC \use{3} ... \NC ...

or

\NC \THREE ... \NC ...

This mechanism spans COLUMNS not rows.

I would like to produce
---------
|    | b |
|    |---|
| A | c |
|    |---|
|    | d |
---------
using \starttables,
as can be done with:
\setupTABLE[c][1][align=lohi]
\bTABLE
\bTR \bTC[nr=3]  A \eTC\bTC b \eTC \eTR
\bTR \bTC c \eTC \eTR
\bTR \bTC d \eTC \eTR
\eTABLE

Note that:
\starttables[|c|c|]
 \HL
 \VL \VL b \VL\AR
 \DC \DL \DR
 \VL A \VL c \VL\AR
 \DC \DL \DR
 \VL \VL d \VL\LR
 \HL
\stoptables
does not quite do the job,
since the aim is to put a tall object
"A" spanning the three rows.

Sorry for this wrong information.

\VL \smash{\vcenter{\hbox{\definedfont[Serif at 70pt]A}}} \VL c \VL\AR

Ah, TeX magic!
Indeed, I never learned about \smash. Thank you

You can use \LOW and \LOWER.
See http://www.tug.org/TUGboat/Articles/tb29-1/tb91mahajan.pdf Section 6.

Re: Indexing macros

The following minimal example works as expected:
\setupregister[index][au][textstyle=\sc]
\def\Index#1{\index{#1}#1}
\def\Author#1{\index{au::#1}#1}
\starttext
The \index[TeX]{\TeX}\TeX \Index{typesetting} system (\Author{Knuth})
\page
\completeindex
\stoptext

Within a large project using the above definitions, author entries in the index 
are typeset normally, not in \sc.
However, if I use
\setupregister[index][au][textstyle=boldslanted]
I do get bold-slanted entries in my large project. Have I misunderstood the 
use of setupregister, or is this a bug?
Thank you, in advance.

Alan
