Table problem

Table problem

Hi Hans,


I need to make a set of tables, which are quite simple. I wanted to use the
\starttable..\stoptable environment.

However I get very strange results in the last column (p-column)

Please have a look at the test.tex file.

Do I something in a wrong way or is there something broken?

Thanks for your support.

Willi

p.s. I am using the beta of 04.03.2003 with a format of 09-03-2003.

my table/.../ knowledge is very limited, but why don't you just
specify  p(8cm) there? Don't know what you need but that looks right
to me. (Yesterdays ConTeXt version.)

Hello Patrick,

> specify  p(8cm) there?

Thanks for the tip. I realize, that after |r| or |l| you need the w if you
want to specify a width of a column, but you should not use the w after |p|
when specifying a width. What happend with my setup is, that the two
coloumns with l and r where typeset as expected but the p column showed a
frame according to the w(8cm) but the text was typeset in a narrow column
centered within the frame of the column.

To me this way of coding a table lacks logic. - However it works now.

as patrick pointed out: use p(dimension)

\starttable[|rw(1cm)|lw(3cm)|p(8cm)|]

you had something wp(8cm) and the funny w spoils things (probably takes 
prev one)
