make array of tables

make array of tables

[Dalyoung Jeong]

Dear all,

I'd like to display several tables of the same size in an 3*2 array form.
I tried the commands \placetables and \startcombination like in thd dispaly of figures, but it didn't work. My only solution is to use \startcolumns right now.
Is it possible to use \startcombination in some way?
Or, is there any way to perform such a display?

Thank you for reading.

Hi,

antoher approach could be to place the tables in buffers. Later on call 
the buffers with something like
\placefigure
    [middle]
    []
    {none}
    {\startcombination[3*2]
       {\externalfigure[buffer1][type=buffer]}{caption1}
       {\externalfigure[buffer2][type=buffer]}{caption2}
       ...
      {\externalfigure[buffer6][type=buffer]}{caption6}
    \stopcombination}

Dear Dalyoung,

Try \placetable   with \startcombination as it is in 'ConTeXt an  
excursion' p. 30 and see if that produces what you want.

\startbuffer[a]
your first table
\stopbuffer

etc

\startcombination[3*2]
  {\getbuffer[a]} {a}
  {\getbuffer[b]} {b}
  {\getbuffer[c]} {c}
  {\getbuffer[d]} {d}
  {\getbuffer[e]} {e}
  {\getbuffer[f]} {f}
\stopcombination
