Subject: Natural Tables---Including a bit of cell style in a \define
Date: Tue, 22 Nov 2011 07:08:31 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4ECB90BF.6020706@waroc.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 721 bytes --]
I am creating documentation labeling the circuits of electrical and network
panels for a project of mine.
Enclosed is a minimal example.
What I would like is to define two macros: \unused and \spare (\unused
referring to a circuit with no breaker installed, while \spare referring to a
circuit with a breaker, but no load). I wish these definitions to not only
include the represented text and font directives, i.e., {\tt [Unused]}, but also
shade the cell in a background color. However, I cannot seem to figure out how
to do that. Including the `[background=color,backgroundcolor=gray]' in the
\define seems to be expanded back simply as text.
Any suggestions?
advTHANKSance.
