Here I do not see that the placement of the table is incorrect. I tried to use \doerecurse with the table-environment and I also did not get a result. A possibility is to use another table environment: \bTABLE \bTR \bTD ... \eTD \eTR \eTABLE This environment has more possibilities than \starttable. Herein \dorecurse does work. Moreover support for colouring is more advanced. Look for details in the enattab.pdf I suggest you to use buffers for the content that the loops typeset.

However, there's one caveat, I could not start the table at the beginning of the page, I had to put a ".\par" in first. Other than that, it works. \setupcolors[state=start] \showframe \def\TEntry#1#2#3#4#5#6{ \bTR \bTD #1 \eTD \bTD #2 \eTD \bTD #3 \eTD \bTD #4 \eTD \bTD #5 \eTD \bTD #6 \eTD \eTR } \setupTABLE[c][each][align=middle,height=\lineheight] \setupTABLE[r][1][background=color,backgroundcolor=darkyellow] \setupTABLE[c][each][width=0.12\textwidth] \setupTABLE[c][3,4][width=0.18\textwidth] \starttext .\par \startalignment[middle] \dontleavehmode \bTABLE \bTR \bTD Verwerkt \eTD \bTD Datum \eTD \bTD Km-stand \eTD \bTD Kilometers \eTD \bTD c/l \eTD \bTD Liter \eTD \eTR \getnoflines{\dimexpr\pagegoal-\pagetotal-3\lineheight\relax}% \dorecurse{\noflines}{\TEntry{}{}{}{}{}{}} \eTABLE \stopalignment \stoptext Bart [-- Attachment #1.2: Type: text/html, Size: 11987 bytes --] [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/plain, Size: 487 bytes --] ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
