Thanks Christof! Still I wonder about the reasons for the different
behavior described in my last post.
[table] simply didn't care to disable the property menu. [array define] is more consequent in this respect.

So can I set all the options from [table's] properties for [array
define] as well? Drawing as bezier curves etc?
No. Also, why would you? [array define] and [table] are not really meant to be looked at (except for debugging purposes). If you need to set visual properties, what you actually want is a regular graphical array.

Any chance this could be

The improvement is called [array define] ;-) [table] is legacy and shouldn't
be used in new projects.

Generally, use a graphical array if you need the array to be visible,
otherwise use [array define]. The latter still allows you to look at the
data (e.g. for debugging purposes), but the properties menu is completely
disabled.
Indeed, [array define] even throws an error message "array: no method for
'done-popup'" when one tries to access the enabled Properties entry in
its context menu.

So can I set all the options from [table's] properties for [array
define] as well? Drawing as bezier curves etc?

Also, contrary to [table], you can save the content with the "-k"
flag.
Could the "save table" flag of tables be disabled/made invisible as
well?

best, P
