I'Ve been trying dozens of combinations to try to reduce the vertical space between the a table and the local footer to some items in the table, but have just been running into a wall.

Here is a minimal example.   For my application there is just too much space between the bottom of the table and the footnote.   That is the problem.  Also is there a more elegant way to get the footnote aligned under the table to the left side.  I am using narrower to force it to postion.  This doesn't show up right in the minimal, but it works.

Help in solving this would be greatly appreciated.

%----------------

\defineconversion[fnsym][\m{\dagger},\m{*},\m{**},\m{***}]  % footnote header symbols

\starttext
\subject{Subject Name}
        \blank
  \startlocalfootnotes   % [conversion=set fnsym]
  \setupnotation[footnote][numberconversion=fnsym,rule=off] % change footnote symbols
\midaligned 
  {
  \placetable[here,none][]{}
    {
    \setuptables[bodyfont=10pt,after=\nowhitespace,spaceafter=none]
     \starttable[|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|]
     \HL
     \VL X-ITEM \VL  \VL$\oplus$ \footnote[hanzi]{Traditional Characters} \VL

    }
  }
\setupnarrower[left=2.5cm]	% to align footnote under the table
\startnarrower[left]
   \placelocalfootnotes[here]
\stopnarrower

   \stoplocalfootnotes
 \setupnotation[footnote][numberconversion=n,rule=on]  % restore footnotes to global 

\stoptext
