... sorry, it should not read *determine*, but *define* !!


I want to DEFINE the total with of a TABLE

But what is the keyword for this purpose with \setupTABLE?

This has already been asked here in the list, without any response, so I
believe it's a missing feature. When you find a possibility, it would be
nice to add it to the http://contextgarden.net/Tables_Overview

For example:

I'd like to set a "total width" that fits both tables
without specifying also the 2nd and 3rd column:

\setupTABLE[totalwidth=10cm,offset=5pt]

\setupTABLE[column][1][width=1cm,align=left]
\setupTABLE[column][5][width=1cm,align=middle]


\bTABLE
\bTR\bTD aa \eTD\bTD bb \eTD\bTD cc \eTD\bTD dd \eTD\eTR
\bTR\bTD aa \eTD\bTD bb \eTD\bTD cc \eTD\bTD dd \eTD\eTR
\bTR\bTD aa \eTD\bTD bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb \eTD\bTD cc \eTD\bTD dd \eTD\eTR
\bTR\bTD aa \eTD\bTD bb \eTD\bTD cc \eTD\bTD dd \eTD\eTR
\bTR\bTD aa \eTD\bTD bb \eTD\bTD cc \eTD\bTD dd \eTD\eTR
\eTABLE

\blank

\bTABLE
\bTR\bTD aa \eTD\bTD bb \eTD\bTD cc \eTD\bTD dd \eTD\eTR

Try yourself:

\setupTABLE[offset=5pt]
\setupTABLE[column][1][width=1cm,align=left]
\setupTABLE[column][5][width=1cm,align=middle]

\bTABLE[option=stretch]
\bTR\bTD aa \eTD\bTD bb \eTD\bTD cc \eTD\bTD dd \eTD\eTR

Not much left of those defined spaces, right?

Steffen

P.S.
And what has your proposal to do with the idea of setting a "total width"?

Sorry, now I see.
I had made the pdf before postings, but I had not understood well it.
(option=stretch seem related with \hsize;
I must admit that when I 'm typeset tables, I always fix dimension, to 
avoid surprises:
I never use stretch.)

core-ntb has changed from last time I saw it, and some things are not so 
clear to me now: I 'll try to investigate.

setting the total width is not that complex, (maxwidth is already taken so i use 
textwidth)

The problem is, that the other settings get lost:
\setupTABLE[column][1][width=1cm,align=left]
\setupTABLE[column][5][width=1cm,align=middle]
