Is such a thing possible? I'd like to have a gradient changing from blue to white across my table header, spanning all columns. I'll probably be using the TABLE environment.
Regards,
Felix

you can also see columns set (search in wiki.contextgarden.net or

)

each table cell can have a background and one can put a gradient in it
using an mp graphic

Okay. I've heard of this Metapost thing. After further investigation
it doesn't look as scary as I first thought. I can't seem to find
anything saying that gradient fills are supported directly but I've
found a few examples of drawing multiple shapes with changing colours
which will recreate the effect, so I'll start with those.
Many thanks,
Felix

Here’s a sample with a gradient:

Just a quick follow up in case Google points anyone this way: it looks
as though the linear_shade function will produce nice looking
gradients. Some examples can be found in:
http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/metafun-p.pdf
I will post again once(/if) I solve this for tables.
