Hi John,

there is http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/enattab.pdf for
natural tables.

You should also look at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TABLE.

To setup the caption (position, layout, numbering) search for
\setupcaption(s) in one of the two manuals (ma-cb-en and cont-en).

Amazing! But it uses a table writing program I hadn't heard of before. I am 
printing out a wiki page on natural tables. Is there a manual somewhere?

Like this you mean?

\def\line{\bTR\bTD something \eTD\bTD nice \eTD\eTR}

\setupTABLE[r][even][background=screen]
\bTABLE
\dorecurse{10}{\line}
\eTABLE

No, the custumer is always right ;)

[NTG-context] Alternating screen/noscreen rows on table

2007-01-25 Thread John R. Culleton

I am required by my customer to alternate between white and screen backgrounds
for each row of a table for all tables, and there are lots of tables. I am 
considering adding code to each row of the table or else doing the thing in 
metafun/metapost.  Advice, anyone? 

Just to mess things up further she wants the table number etc. above the table 
and left justified. I can handle that.

The customer is not always right but the customer is always the customer. She 
who pays the bills calls the shots.
