Dear Mr. Hagen.
I apologize that I bother you once more, but I really need your help (deadline for my document is quite soon). :-(
I have to follow a rather complex document design. According to it tables must be framed with two different lines: The outer frame must be thick and the inner thin. Moreover, a part of the header (the first row) must be black. I didn't know how to do it, so I used Metapost in a company with the overlay mechanism provided with the ConTeXt. It works well, but:
1) When a cell has black background, it turns its frame from black to white. It's awfull. How can I switch this behavior off?
2) The frame of the first and last row doesn't fit precisely to frames of the rest rows. What's wrong? Are those cell of a different sizes? How can I improve it?
Many thanks for your kind help. Your sincerely Michal Kvasnicka
P.S. I include a minimal (but not a small, I apologize) example.
you can avoid the ugly def by :
\startsetups[table]
\setupTABLE[frame=off, background={color,tabulka5}, backgroundcolor=white]
\setupTABLE[column][1][background={color,tabulka2}]
\setupTABLE[row][1,2][background={color,tabulka4}]
\setupTABLE[column][last][background={color,tabulka8}]
\setupTABLE[row][last][background={color,tabulka6}]
\setupTABLE[1][1,2][background={color,tabulka1}]
\setupTABLE[last][1,2][background={color,tabulka7}]
\setupTABLE[last][last][background={color,tabulka9}]
\setupTABLE[1][last][background={color,tabulka3}]
\setupTABLE[column][2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20][backgroundcolor=svetleseda]
\setupTABLE[column][3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17,19][backgroundcolor=tmaveseda]
\setupTABLE[2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20][1][backgroundcolor=black,color=white]
\setupTABLE[1][1,2][backgroundcolor=white, color=black]\stopsetups
\placetable[here][tab:spotrceny]{A Time Serie}{\setups[table]...}
however, i wonder if you really need all that mp code:
\defineframedcontent[SomeTable][offset=1pt,rulethickness=2pt] \startframedcontent[SomeTable] \setupTABLE[2][1][background=color,backgroundcolor=black,foregroundcolor=white] \bTABLE \bTR\bTD Date \eTD\bTD Index CPI \eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD jan 1991 \eTD\bTD 59.4 \eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD feb 1991 \eTD\bTD 63.1 \eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD mar 1991 \eTD\bTD 65.7 \eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD $\vdots$ \eTD\bTD $\vdots$ \eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD dec 1995 \eTD\bTD 112.5 \eTD\eTR \eTABLE \stopframedcontent
(\defineframedcontent is just a kind of preset framed text)
