Hi,
I am trying to define two tabulate styles as follows:
- \setuptabulate[split=yes, bodyfont=small]
- \setuptabulate[split=yes]
...such that I can just refer to them when I \starttabulate...\stoptabulate somewhere. I thought, the command \definetabulate would come in handy here, but I can't work it out and it appears the documentation on that command is pretty scarce.
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/definetabulate
Any help?
Thank you,
Malte.

To refer to a table, you place it as a float and use the
`reference=tab:alphatable` key. Then in the text you refer to the
table, see \in{table}[tab:alphatable].

Feel free to add an example. It's a wiki!

Marco,

This does not work for me quite the way I need it to. I am really just after defining the font-size, but I would like to leave the column setup to the user (I am building an environment and that I would like everyone in my team to use to ensure a consistent look-and-feel or all documents). So, ideally, I would like to do this:

...but that does not seem to work. Any way I can achieve this?

Sure. Will do, once I have this working.
Thank you,
Malte.
