tables

[Hans Hagen]

Hi,

two table mechanisms now have the textwidth (max available width) set to 
local which makes it work inside for instance text backgrounds

\starttext

\starttextbackground

     \input ward

     \bTABLE % [textwidth=local]
         \bTR
             \bTD \input ward \eTD
             \bTD \input ward \eTD
         \eTR
     \eTABLE

     \startxtable % [textwidth=local]
         \startxrow
             \startxcell \input ward \stopxcell
             \startxcell \input ward \stopxcell
         \stopxrow
     \stopxtable

\stoptextbackground

\stoptext

Hans

tables

[Meer, H. van der]

I started using starttable..\stoptable.

Question: How can I force the table cells to fixed dimensions, for example squares of 1cmx1cm?

I can see \setuptables[height= width= depth=] but that does not take dimensions (error Illegal unit). What it does with the numbers given is not clear to me, because the ConTeXtGarden has no explanation of its effect.

By the way, the page Command/setuptables has the bodyfont parameter occurring twice in the table.

Hi Horacio,

look at the following links for information about natural tables:

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TABLE
http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/enattab.pdf
http://dl.contextgarden.net/myway/NaturalTables.pdf


You can also ask more precise questions on this list.

You can go to

http://articles.contextgarden.net/

and search for 'btable' there.

Can this search box also be added to the main wiki page, between the 
search in wiki and search with google search boxes.

Yes. (Done) Could anybody send me a more clever (then 'articles/full

Tables

[David Arnold]

All,

If I want to learn to typeset tables the "Context Way," there are many
references, some old and out dated, some new?

Where should I start (documentation) so that I am working with tables in
Context in the most current up-to-date manner?

At the current state I guess it's best to use the HTML-style "natural 
tables", see
http://contextgarden.net/TABLE

BTW: You ask a lot of single questions; ok, it's better than send the 
whole lot in one mail, but perhaps you could have found some answers in 
the wiki and in the docs! (We can't simply write RTFM, since there is 
too much wide spread docs, but please look first at the wiki!)

tables

[dr. Hans van der Meer]

Does someone knows where there is information on the table environment 
in ConTeXt?
I have read the intro on ConTeXt and the pamphlets from the Pragma-site 
on tabulate and btable, but there seem to be a lot more options than 
can be found in these; I encountered something like \AR etc. whose 
effects I could not figure out with some tests.

Also there is some mention of Wichura's manual. Is this somewhere to be 
found on the internet?

Thanks in advance.

This is a FAQ, please search the ML archive.

In short: The manual is sold with the TaBlE package.
Better try ConTeXt's newer HTML-like tables.

I just added an overview of the different table environments to the 
Wiki:

tables

[Roef Ragas]

For an invoice I'd like to spread some figures over the page, but I
can't seem to find the argument to make the table use the whole of the
page (or: adjust the width). Is there a way to adjust the size of every
part of a row?

looks like a bug in TaBlE itself (no EndPar.. not expanded for each p) and 
so no info about height of cells

maybe you can better use bTABLE ... which gives you more control

Hi,

This is a nice example! Specially I like the dorecurse construction!

Unfortunately I do not get the table head above the table on following
pages.
Do I miss something?
