\bTABLE, splitting and align

\bTABLE, splitting and align

[Martin Kolařík]

Hello,

I need to place \bTABLE into the text, and:

1. I do not want to use floats, so \bTABLE should lie directly in the text
2. I want to have table centered
3. I need to leave table's automatic splitting (over pages) untouched and
working

If I directly use \bTABLE inside midaligned text the items 1. & 3. (of the
list above) are satisfied, but table is not centered.

If I use \bTABLE inside some box (e.g. \midaligned, \hbox{\hfil..\hfil}) the
items 1. & 2. are satisfied, but table is (of course) not splitted even it
is long.

If I use \placefloat, the item 1. is not satisfied (but it is my wish :-),
the item 2. can be simlpy achieved using \setupfloat and the behaviour of
item 3. is unknown for me. I guess the table will not be splitted too.

So, how to satisfy all items 1.,2. & 3. simultaneously? Maybe there is some
straightforward way which I cannot see...

Thanks,

Martin

ok, should not be a problem, although you may want to add some spacing

>2. I want to have table centered

no problem either, but i'll have to extend in-text placement in case of split

splitting works when (in my latest version, not sure if in uploaded version) :

   \setupTABLE[split=yes]

is set (and table heads are defined).

so, i need to make some placement option (will think of it)

yes, it works pretty well
