\section{Why is the align key not used?}
\setupTABLE[width=3cm, height=3cm, align={middle, lohi}]
\bTABLE
\bTR \bTD bla \eTD \eTR

\section{Workaround}
\setupTABLE[each][each][width=3cm, height=3cm, align={middle, lohi}]
\bTABLE
\bTR \bTD bla \eTD \eTR
\eTABLE
\stoptext

TIA for any explanation,

The \bTABLE does set its own values for the align-key which overwrites your
settings from \setupTABLE. The arguments in the second argument are
processed at a later stage (this happens always when you use row/columns setups)
and taken into account when the cells are typeset.

Hello Peter,

two more ways which work OK (my preferred ways):

----
\section{Alt 1}

   \bTABLE
     \setupTABLE[width=3cm, height=3cm, align={middle, lohi}] % Place setup just after \bTABLE...
     \bTR \bTD bla \eTD \eTR
   \eTABLE

\section{Alt 2}

   \bTABLE[width=3cm, height=3cm, align={middle, lohi}] % ... or perform setup in the scope of \bTABLE
     \bTR \bTD bla \eTD \eTR
   \eTABLE
----

Best regards,

Lukas

This isn’t good style and you would loose the option to use \setupTABLE[textwidth=<dimenson>].

Better methods are

   \setupTABLE[start][..,..=..,..]
   \bTABLE
      …
   \eTBALE

or

   \startsetups[table:format]
     \setupTABLE[..,..=..,..]
   \stopsetups

   \bTABLE[setups=table:format]
     …
   \eTBALE

Wolfgang
