Hello,

I'm just curious:

I tried to apply align specification to \b/e-TABLE, inframed, \start/stop-alignment and \start/stop-tabulate:

----
\setupbodyfont[11pt]

\starttext
   \bTABLE
     \setupTABLE[width=4cm,align=middle]
     \setupTABLE[column][1][align=left]
     \setupTABLE[column][4][align=right]
     \bTR
       \bTD ali=L\eTD
       \bTD B\eTD
       \bTD \inframed[width=1.5cm,align=left]{ali=L}\eTD
       \bTD ali=R\eTD
     \eTR
   \eTABLE

   \startalignment[left]
     \input tufte
   \stopalignment

   \starttabulate[|pl|pc|pr|]
     \NC ali=L \input tufte\NC\input tufte\NC ali=R \input tufte\NC\NR
   \stoptabulate
\stoptext
----

The text aligned by "align=left" inside TABLE cell, inside \inframed and inside \startalignment is aligned to the right border of the "bounding box" (ragged left).

The text aligned by "align=left" inside \start/stop-tabulate is aligned to the left edge of the "bounding box".

I must admit than tabulate's behavior seems more natural to me, but this may be just my point of view.

Anyway, why the behavior of alignment specification is different for {\b/e-TABLE, \inframed, \start/stop-alignment} and {\start/stop-tabulate}?

Wouldn't be nice to unite it?

Best regards,

Lukas
