Hi Willi,

sorry for the late reply, was a bit ill

 \setupbackgrounds[text][state=repeat,background=screen,backgroundscreen=.8]

I'll try that, but the frame coloring is just for debugging. My
intention was to control the exact aligning of the table on the page.

 bTABLE breaks over pages if you use [split=repeat] together with a\ 
 bTABLEhead...\eTABLEhead.

 Using the \rotate command prevents breaking, Possibly you better use
 \setuppapersize[a4,landscape][a4,landscape], which of course rotates 
 the whole layout including headers and footers.

I didn't think of that, I'll try it out.

 I am afraid, that once you include the table into a \placefigure 
 environment, breaking is prevented.

Is there a way to add a caption without \placetable then?

 I was able to break a long table with a merged cell as you have it in 
 the first column. However there is possibly a bug, because this column 
 has no bottomframe.
 In order to place the LOW TECH text correctly you might use a \framed 
 command within the table
 \bTD[nr=7,align=lohi] \rotate[rotation=90]{\framed[frame=off, 
 offset=.5em,align=center,width=3cm]{Low Tech}}\eTD

I'll try that too.

Thanks alot,
Karsten

[NTG-context] some basic TABLE questions

2006-04-27 Thread Karsten Heymann
Hello,

it would be very kind if someone could answer the following questions
about the possibilities of TABLE:

- there some semi-automatic way of splitting tables on multiple pages if
  those tables are in landscape mode (which I achieve by putting them
  into a \rotating{}-Command)?
- How do I add a caption to (portrait) multipage TABLEs? \placefigure
  obviously doesn't work.

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Yours,
Karsten

Hi Karsten,

I hope to be able to give at least partial answers

Instead of using a \framed construct I would suggest to use a background:

\setupbackgrounds[text][state=repeat,background=screen,backgroundscreen=.8]

bTABLE breaks over pages if you use [split=repeat] together with a\ 
bTABLEhead...\eTABLEhead.
Using the \rotate command prevents breaking, Possibly you better use
\setuppapersize[a4,landscape][a4,landscape], which of course rotates 
the whole layout including headers and footers.
I am afraid, that once you include the table into a \placefigure

AFAIK \placetable or \placefigure accepts a single caption only and will 
not break over pages.

Kind regards
Willi
