xtables different frame thickness for one side only

xtables different frame thickness for one side only

[Csikos Bela]

Dear context users:

Is it possible to change the rulethickness of one side of a row in xtables?
I the example below I'd like the bottom of the first row to be thicker than other sides.

\starttext
\startxtable[frame=on]
\startxrow % bottom frame of this row should be thicker
\startxcell AAA \stopxcell
\startxcell BBB \stopxcell
\stopxrow
\startxrow
\startxcell CCC \stopxcell
\startxcell DDD \stopxcell
\stopxrow
\stopxtable
\stoptext

If I understand correctly xtables uses framed mechanism. For framed I could not
find an option to change the frame thickness of individual sides. There's only
rulethickness option which applies to all sides. According to this what I want to do
in xtabels is not feasible. Please correct if I misunderstand something.

Thanks you in advance,

bcsikos

Sorry for the delayed reply, Csikos.

You can accomplish it with the following code (recursion only used to
show the single thicker bottom frame):

    \installbottomframerenderer{thicker}
    {\blackrule[width=\overlaywidth,height=3\linewidth]}
    \starttext
    \startxtable[frame=on]
    \startxrow[bottomframe=thicker] % bottom frame should be thicker
    \startxcell AAA \stopxcell
    \startxcell BBB \stopxcell
    \stopxrow
    \dorecurse{5}{\startxrow
    \startxcell CCC \stopxcell
    \startxcell DDD \stopxcell
    \stopxrow}
    \stopxtable
    \stoptext

If this is what you want, would you be so kind to wikify it?
