Sorry, I wasn't right. context uses a default width for head. Accidentally the longest term I used in my document was almost the same as the default head width, therefore I thought that the head was calculated according to my term's width. >>Neither width=fit nor width=broad,distance=dimension results in the same. > >Some information is given here: http://www.ntg.nl/maps/36/09.pdf >Enumerations and descriptions share a lot of settings. Thank you. I read it. I have a question: is it possible to add some text or command between the head and text in description? For example a dash or symbol which separates the head from the text. In enumerations it seems to be different, because there the variable head (title) goes after a static head. I would need the opposite: variable head part - static head part. I tried to use headcommand option but it puts stuff before head. >There is no way to reset options in ConTeXt.
