[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2610 bytes --]

Hello,

I am using natural tables to make tables in my document. Can someone please
tell me how I can prevent context from applying features I choose for an
earlier table to a table that appears later in the document. Following is an
example of two tables. Even though I choose

\setupTABLE[frame=off]

for the second table, there is a frame created based on what I define for an
earlier table. I am using MKII (since I want to use Tikz).

I would really appreciate any help.

Example:

\setuplayout[letter,height=
9in,width=5.5in,topspace=1in,header=1cm,backspace=1.5in]

% Changing the location of the page numbers so that they appear in the
footer.
\setuppagenumbering[location=footer]

\setupcolors[state=start]
\setupcolor[xwi]

\starttext

%%%%%% First Table  %%%%%%
\setupTABLE[frame=off]
        \setupTABLE[column][3,4,5][align={middle,lohi},width=0.6in]
        \setupTABLE[column][2][align=lohi]
        \setupTABLE[row][3][align={lohi,middle}]

\setupTABLE[3,4,5][3,4,5][background=color,backgroundcolor=ivory,framecolor=midnightblue,frame=on]
% Using color names from xwi colorscheme
        \bTABLE
            \bTR

Hi,

If you place the setups outside the bTABLE - eTABLE then the setup is  
global. You can put the setups after the bTABLE and then they are  
local to the table.

\setupTABLE[..,..=..,..]

\bTABLE
...
\eTABLE

\stop

              ^^^^^^^

you *can't* use keywords and assignments in the same setup, it's not part of context’s syntax

Be careful with this because a few setup can't be done after \bTABLE like

- option=stretch
- header=repeat
- split=yes|repeat|auto

Thanks to both Willi and Wolfgang. I quickly tried Wolfgang's method and it
worked great.

 Willi, even if, as you said, the setting is global when placed before
\bTABLE. When I repeat the command \setupTABLE[frame=off] again before table
2, should that not be the new global setup and apply to things following it?

Thanks again.
