Re: [NTG-context] Tables query (notes, MKII)
Hi Alan,
I tried your code. Here with the latest beta and minimals from
11-06-2009 MKIV: I get the footnotes at the left margin and they will
fill the whole width of the table and break lines correctly. However
the conversion of the numbers into characters does not work. Instead
the [conversion=characters] is displayed at the top of the file. - I
assume, that this is an issue related to the new sectioning code...
Otherwise compliation of your code in MKII results in a correct
conversion of the numbers to characters, but indeed the width is
restricted to a fairly small column. You can circumvent this by
adding a width= to the list of options [conversion=characters, width=
\.9\textwidth]
Kind regards
Willi

Re: [NTG-context] Tables query (notes, MKII)
Thanks, Willi. I am now using the very latest ConTeXt minimals and
find that setting width=fit works too.
All best, Alan

Re: [NTG-context] Tables query (notes, MKII)
After some experimentation, it became clear that to place the local
notes properly, one must use \note[...] and \footnotetext[...]{}, and
put the series of \footnotetext entries just before
\placelocalfootnotes.

[NTG-context] tables with notes
I have a dim recollection that this question has been asked before, but I have not been able to find the answer. So please excuse me if this goes over old ground. I have prepared a fairly complex table (using \starttables) that has notes to various entries. What I should like is to • mark the notes with the letters, a, b, c,... • put the notes immediately beneath the table caption (in single column text) and to keep the notes with the table, and • maintain the proper sequence of numbered footnotes in the surrounding text. Any suggestions or pointers to previous discussions will be gratefully received.
