Hi Wolfgang,

danke, your way works. Still I am a little bit confused why my previous 
(plain tex) matrix works for you guys but not for me, since it worked a 
few days ago. i hope that I am not missing anything here like for 
example that i forgot to define anything in the beginning.
So only for the record: my context version is 2016.04.01 13:01.
If anybody wants to research deeper into this, i can provide logs, texs 
and pdfs.

Thanks a lot,

Sebastian
