Ok, if you use p for the column definition you can just use \setupalign on individual cells...

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\starttext
\starttabulate[|pA{verytolerant,extremestretch}|pA{verytolerant,extremestretch}|]
\NC Heading flushleft \NC \setupalign[flushright] Heading flushright \NC \NR
\NC \input ward  \NC \input ward \NC \NR
\stoptabulate
\stoptext
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Best,
Denis

Betreff: [NTG-context] Tabulate: Change cell orienation for individual cells?

Hi,

is it possible to override the defined orienatation for a given cell ?

Take this example from the wiki:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\starttext
\starttabulate[|l|c|r|]
\NC this and that \NC left and right \NC here and there \NC \NR
\NC such and so \NC up and down \NC on and on \NC \NR
\stoptabulate
\stoptext
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

How can I change the alignment for a particular cell?

Best,
Denis
