None of the table environments use the global alignment settings and you have to set them again to get better results for the content.

Martin, have you tried streams? http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Columns#Streams Under the examples you will find an example of a columnar, aligned streams setup - by Wolfgang.

Ok, needed a break from work, so for fun and for learning something new: ============== \setuppapersize[A4][A4] \defineparagraphs[TwoLang][n=2] \setuptabulate[split=yes] \setupalign[verytolerant,stretch] \starttext \showframe \startoutputstream[one] \setupalign[flushleft] \framedtext[width=17.4em,align=verytolerant,stretch,frame=on,offset=overlay] {\input lorem } \hfill \par \stopoutputstream \startoutputstream[two] \setupalign[flushright] \hfill \framedtext[width=17.4em,align=verytolerant,stretch,frame=on,offset=overlay] {\input davis } \par \stopoutputstream \synchronizestreams[one,two] \startoverlay {\raise2\strutdp\outputstreambox[one]} {\raise0\strutdp\outputstreambox[two]} \stopoverlay \startTwoLang \input lorem \nextTwoLang \input davis \stopTwoLang \starttabulate[|p|p|] \NC\input lorem \NC\input davis \NC\NR \stoptabulate \bTABLE[frame=off,align=yes,split=yes] \bTR \bTD[roffset=2mm]\input lorem\eTD \bTD[loffset=2mm]\input davis\eTD \eTR \eTABLE \startcolumns[n=2] \input lorem \column \input davis \stopcolumns \stoptext ============== The \raise2\strutdp etc. feels like a hack, Wolfgang knows better why it's needed, as as how and why the value for one stream affects the other..

There are a few half-finished mechanisms. There's also one based on parallel figures etc that Thomas and I still need to finish.
