Re: [NTG-context] professional looking tables
Thank you for your help so far. Now I am close to what I'd like to achieve. I want to insert a foot on every pages except on the last page (at the end of the table). Is it possible? I have this simple code: \starttext \setupxtable[split=repeat,header=repeat,footer=repeat] \startxtable[frame=off,topframe=on,bottomframe=on,toffset=2pt,boffset=4pt] \startxtablehead \startxrow[bottomframe=off,rulethickness=2pt] \startxcell Head \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtablehead \startxtablenext \startxrow[topframe=off] \startxcell Continued from previous page \stopxcell \stopxrow \startxrow \startxcell Next \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtablenext \startxtablefoot[bottomframe=off] \startxrow \startxcell Continued on next page \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtablefoot \startxtablebody \startxrow \startxcell \input tufte \stopxcell \stopxrow \startxrow \startxcell \input tufte \stopxcell \stopxrow \startxrow \startxcell \input tufte \stopxcell \stopxrow \startxrow \startxcell \input tufte \stopxcell \stopxrow \startxrow \startxcell \input tufte \stopxcell \stopxrow \startxrow \startxcell \input tufte \stopxcell \stopxrow \startxrow \startxcell \input tufte \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtablebody \stopxtable \stoptext Thank you, bcsikos ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

Using longtable package I could make nice looking multipage tables. I see that context offers several table environments. Which one of them is suitable for making professional (publication quality) tables? The requirements for such tables are the follows: - Only horizontal rules are needed - Ability to set the rule's thickness for top rule, bottom rule, middle rule - Ability to set the distance between rules and table content - Ability to set rule length shorter than cell or row width on both left and right sides - Ability to set rules for spanning only some of the columns Natural tables can give the same visual output as booktabs but the only way to shorten rules is to either use a "fake" column as spacer or use metapost to draw borders. For simple tables, you could get around this by being a little creative. For example, here is the example from the booktabs package with very little manual tweaking. \startsetups booktabs \setupTABLE[frame=off, rulethickness=0.5bp, loffset=1em] \setupTABLE[column][first][loffset=0em] \setupTABLE[row][first][topframe=on, rulethickness=1.5bp] \setupTABLE[row][last] [bottomframe=on, rulethickness=1bp] \stopsetups \starttext \bTABLE[setups=booktabs] \setupTABLE[column][3][align=flushright] \bTR[topframe=on] \bTD[nc=2, align=middle] Item \eTD \bTD \eTD \eTR \bTR[bottomframe=on] \bTD[topframe=on] Animal \eTD \bTD[topframe=on] Description \eTD \bTD Price (\$) \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD Gnat \eTD \bTD per gram \eTD \bTD 13.65\eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD \eTD \bTD each \eTD \bTD 0.01 \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD Gnu \eTD \bTD stuffed \eTD \bTD 92.50 \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD Emu \eTD \bTD stuffed \eTD \bTD 33.33 \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD Armadillo \eTD \bTD frozen\eTD \bTD 8.99 \eTD \eTR \eTABLE \stoptext Aditya ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
