Hi all,
the background mechanism of tabulations is quite simplistic: it
extends only to the first line of a cell irrespective of its
length. Example:
·······································································
\starttext
\starttabulate[|p|r|]
\CM [red] \input knuth \NC was said by The Don \NC \AR
\stoptabulate
\stoptext
·······································································
Is there a way to get the whole cell covered? (Textbackgrounds
only color the area where text is, not the entire cell.)
Regards
Philipp

The TABLE macros are more flexible than tabulate.
(Untested)
\startsetups table:setup
\setupTABLE[frame=off]
\setupTABLE[r][1][background=color, color=red, width=0.5\hsize]
\stopsetups
\startTABLE[setups={table:setup}]
\NC \input knuth \NC was said by the Don \NC \NR
\stopTABLE

Yes, I know that, but I cannot rule out that I will be needing
page breaks inside paragraphs. (Besides, the wiki doesn’t mention
this behavior and afair I’m partially responsible for that
omission ;-))
