If you are certain that the there will be no multi-line item (i.e. item text is
short enough that it fits in slightly less than half of textwidth) you can use
an enumeration, and put the contents inside a two-column layout:
%%% start example-1
\define[1]\aitemcmd{\inframed[width=1cm,align=flushright,frame=off]{(#1)}}
\defineenumeration
[aitem]
\setupenumeration
[aitem]
[text=,
alternative=empty,
headstyle=normal,
width=fit,
align=flushright,
closesymbol={\getnumber[aitem]},
closecommand=\aitemcmd]
\starttext
\startcolumns[distance=1cm]
\startitemize[n]
\dorecurse{5}{
\startaitem
whatever left
\stopaitem
}
\stopitemize
\startitemize[a][left=(,right=),stopper=,width=1cm]
\dorecurse{5}{
\startitem
whatever right
\stopitem
}
\stopitemize
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
%%% stop example-1
[You can tweak the alternative, align, closesymbol, closecommand to get exactly
what you want; the example above will give a somewhat symmetric layout]
More generally, if the text can multi-line, then I think TABLE (with proper
alignment options) might be better-suited:
%%% start example-2
\define\startItemize{
\bTABLE\setupTABLE[frame=on,align=lohi]
\setupTABLE[2][distance=1cm,align={flushright,lohi}]
\setupTABLE[2,3][width=0.05\textwidth]
\setupTABLE[1][align=flushright,width=0.4\textwidth]
\setupTABLE[4][align=flushleft,width=0.4\textwidth]
}
\define\stopItemize{\eTABLE}
\define[1]\metI{\bTR \bTD #1 \eTD \bTD (\character{\currentTABLErow}) \eTD}
\define[1]\Item{\bTD (\currentTABLErow) \eTD \bTD #1 \eTD \eTR}
\starttext
\startItemize
\dorecurse{5}{
\metI {whatever here on the left}
\Item {whatever here on the right}
}
\stopItemize
\stoptext
%%% stop example-2

Re: [NTG-context] Strange behaviour of TABLE with \currentTABLErow
Hi Wolfgang,
thank you for your reply.
The split=repeat -- my fault, sorry. But -- surprisingly -- this mistake
helped me along understanding the problem. I discovered -- if head
and next head are defined -- that the "line number 1" servers for the
opening head at the beginning of a table whereas "line number 2"
is used for all "next heads" at all pages of the table.
So the problem is reduced to substracting one or two for only heads
and head+next heads, respectively.
Best wishes,
Tomáš
P. S.
One possible solution can be e.g.:
\newcount\myrow
\def\currentTABLEbodyrow{\def\takenumber##1{\myrow=##1\advance\myrow-2
\the\myrow}\takenumber\currentTABLErow}
The number of rows is now determined by the number of all rows
# (including header and footer) and the counting starts also from the first
# row in the table independent of the type of the row.

[NTG-context] \bTD\numexpr\currentTABLErow\minusone\relax\eTD
Hello, I naively tried using \bTD\numexpr\currentTABLErow\minusone\relax\dTD in a TABLE. As I do not master even simple calculations under TeX, I do not see what I am missing in order to label TABLE rows, starting from 0? (Row 1 is a heading, set off by \bTABLEhead\eTABLEhead, which is why I am looking to subtract 1 from \currentTABLErow, but this does not matter of course. But perhaps the addressing of TABLE rows, including within \setupTABLE, should or could handle this situation? This is a secondary question to think about...)

Re: [NTG-context] Setting options for every n-th row in natural TABLEs
... Thanks Hans for implementation and Sietse for wikifying. BTW: Wouldn't be better to enclose ConText source on wiki into context mode=mkiv source=yes rather than texcode even if the source doesn't compile due to wiki-ConTeXt oldness? I believe one day the wiki-ConTeXt engine will be updated and so all examples with the current result (context error, something is wrong with the input) will work. Otherwise, inside texcode element, the result will never appear, which seems to me to be pity...

Well, I can always change what odd and even means :) (I also realized that
odd and even are just dummy values. I can change them to anything, and can
in fact even turn \v!oddeven to a switch statement that returns multiple
values)

\setupTABLE[row][odd][backgroundcolor=blue]

What I would do is to use a overlay in combination with metapost to
create the background but there is no global register to access the
current column/row of a cell, e.g. \currenttablecolumn (this name is
already used by tables) and \currenttablerow.
Thanks for the hint. It is relatively easy to access the local counter for
a cell, and changing background colors dependon the current row works
well.
\defineconversion
[triadcolors]
[blue,blue,blue,red,red,red]
\startsetups zebra:three
\setupTABLE[frame=off,background=color]
\setupTABLE[row][backgroundcolor={\convertnumber{triadcolors}{\getvalue{m_tabl_ntb_positive_row}}}]
\stopsetups
If I need rules, I guess I can explicitly check for the value of \m_tabl_ntb_postive_pow
inside an overlay.
Thanks,
