Change font of single floatrow object

Question

I'm using floatrow and want to change the the font of a single float object. It says here that this should be possible by placing \fleatsetup{} inside the float object. This doesn't work for me.

My setup:

\usepackage{floatrow}
\floatsetup[table]{style=plaintop}
…
\begin{table}
\floatsetup{font=tt}
\caption{A caption}
\label{label1}
\begin{tabular}{l l}
A & B \\
C & D \\
\end{tabular}
\end{table}

I would expect the font to be changed to monospaced, but nothing happens.

it works if you place \floatsetup{font=tt} outside the table environment and enclose everything in a group. — d-cmst, Nov 09 '13 at 18:14

As pointed out by dcmst, \floatsetup{font=tt} needs to be placed outside the environment, but inside a group. The above example would have to look like this:

\usepackage{floatrow}
\floatsetup[table]{style=plaintop}
…

{ % or \begingroup
\floatsetup{font=tt}
\begin{table}

\caption{A caption}
\label{label1}
\begin{tabular}{l l}
A & B \\
C & D \\
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
} % or \endgroup
