I'd like to set a default background color for all the tables in my document.
This is what I have tried (using the latest beta):
\setuptables[background=color,backgroundcolor=red]
\starttext
\starttable[|cm|]
\HL
\NC \bf R \NC \AR
\NC A \NC \AR
\HL
\NC \bot \NC \AR
\NC 1 \NC \AR
\stoptable
\stoptext
No red background, though. What am I missing?
The next step would be how to use a hatched pattern, but for now I'd
be happy with a flat color.
Nicola

The table environment does not support backgrounds but you can use the
tabulate environment.
\starttext
\defineframedcontent[nicola][frame=off,background=color,backgroundcolor=yellow]
\setuptabulate[frame=nicola]
\starttabulate[|k{0.25}cm|]
\HL
\NC \bf R \NC\NR
\NC A \NC\NR
\HL
\NC \bot \NC\NR
\NC 1 \NC\NR
\stoptabulate
\stoptext

Thanks, it works! And it does with tables, too. From there, I think I
know how to use a
MetaPost pattern instead.
