Dear list members:

Last time I sent this message to the wrong thread accidentally. Now I send it 
again, hopefully to a new thread.

I have this simple table:

\starttext
\placetable[here]{title}{
\setuptables[bodyfont=8pt,rulethickness=0.04em]
\start
\setuplocalinterlinespace[2.2ex]
\starttable[|lp(5cm)|lp(5cm)|cp(2cm)|]
\HL[2]
\NC \bf First Column \NC \bf Second Column \NC \bf Third Column \NC \SR
\HL
\NC Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Curabitur massa 
turpis,
semper quis fringilla ut, viverra nec risus. \NC Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, 
consectetur adipiscing elit. \NC Lorem ipsum \NC \SR
\HL
\NC Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus
\NC Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus \NC Pellentesque 
\NC \SR
\HL
\NC Donec nunc lorem, sollicitudin vel sodales eget \NC Donec nunc lorem, 
sollicitudin vel sodales eget Donec nunc lorem, sollicitudin vel sodales eget 
\NC Donec \NC \SR
\HL[2]
\stoptable
\stop}
\stoptext

I have some questions related to the above table.

1. How can I set the distance between the text (in rows) and the rule above and 
below the text, separately?
I find that the rules are too close to the text. I tried \setuptables' height 
and depth options but those are not what I need.  (For example the depth option 
adds extra space in rows where it is unnecessary.) What are height and depth 
options are for exactly?

2. Can \setuptables[bodyfont=...] option use font sizes as \tfa, \tfb, \tfc, 
\tfx, \tfxx, or point size has to be
set explicitly? 

3. What is the distance option in \setuptables?

Thank you in advance,

bcsikos
