Description

When a table is printed (using \placetable) the 'split' option can be specified to enable a long table to be split over several pages. If this happens then the table on each page is labelled "Table 1a Your Caption", "Table 1b Your Caption", "Table 1c Your Caption" and so on.

This command controls the formatting of the sub-table label.

Example

1) Use lower case Roman numerals for the table page instead of characters:

\setupfloatsplitting [conversion=romannumerals]

2) Use "Table 1 (cont’d)" for second and subsequent table pages, instead of a, b, c etc.:

\setuplabeltext [en] [continued={ (cont’d)}]
\setupfloatsplitting [conversion=continued]
