Hello,

I have a complicated TABLE, but I simplified it to the following example:

----
\def\DoTable#1{%
  \bTABLE
    \setupTABLE[width=2cm]
    \setupTABLE[column][#1][align=flushright] % 
....................................................... [1]
    \setupTABLE[row][1][align=middle] % Settings for ALL columns in the row 1 
should be overwritten ... [2]
    \bTABLEhead
      \bTR
        \bTH a\eTH
        \bTH b\eTH
      \eTR
    \eTABLEhead
    \bTABLEbody
      \bTR
        \bTD a\eTD
        \bTD b\eTD
      \eTR
    \eTABLEbody
  \eTABLE
}

\starttext
  No column specification: \DoTable{}

  With column specification: \DoTable{2}
\stoptext
----

The problem is that row #1 should be mid-aligned in all columns. So I wrote:

----
    \setupTABLE[column][2][align=flushright] % Column #2 has its own 
alignment...
    \setupTABLE[row][1][align=middle] % ... but overwrite here for the whole 
row #1 (including column #2)
----

But column #2 keeps the previously assigned alignment.

The situation doesn't change even if I swap [1] and [2] (for the case "the earlier 
setting, the higher priority").

Moreover, if the column number if not specified (\DoTable{}), the row setting 
overwrites setting for ALL columns; so only if the column is specified 
precisely, its setting is kept.

So how to overwrite row #1 setting globally?

And how setting priorities are evaluated? I guessed the later specification, 
the higher weight (which would allow overwriting)...

Note that in the example it would be possible to specify settings for each 
row/column, but it not useful way in the case of more/very complicated tables.

TIA.

Best regards,

Lukas
