it looks like tikz expects shift={(a,b)} so with a brace but not a macro
inside as it does not expand the value; it sees \p and not the meaning
of \p which means that you cannot simply use the loop

ok, i found it but i'm not going to make it custom to fix tikz
you need to use this:
\normalexpanded{\noexpand\startscope[shift={\p}]}
instead of
\startscope[shift={\p}]
this can be automated with (maybe we need a m-fixz module for that)
% fix
\appendtoks
\let\normaltikzstartscope\startscope
\def\startscope[#1]%
{\normalexpanded
{\noexpand\normaltikzstartscope[#1]}}%
\to \everyinsidetikzpicture
% end of fix
but for that you need to use the attached module so that we hook it in
aftert tikz sets itself up
the fix you can put in your style or in a cont-loc.mkxl in a local tree

[NTG-context] Parallel columns using start/stop setups
Two concurrent situations can happen, which I'd like to typeset as two
parallel columns while keeping the overall page layout (i.e., headers,
footers, margins, and such).
current version: 2023.07.18 22:07
I'd like to find a way to set up start/stop environments, if possible, to
come up with a general-purpose solution (i.e., the prose itself is not
changed).
Here are a few examples. In the first, a "concurrent" environment is
created with two "timelines":
% SOT
\definestartstop[concurrent][
before={\startcolumns[n=2, align={verytolerant,stretch}, separator=rule]},
after=\stopcolumns,
]
\definestartstop[timelinea][
after=\column,
]
\definestartstop[timelineb][]
\starttext
\startconcurrent
\starttimelinea
\dorecurse{5}{\input ward}
\stoptimelinea
\starttimelineb
\dorecurse{5}{\input knuth}
\stoptimelineb
\stopconcurrent
\stoptext
% EOT
The ward and knuth texts end up in the same column because one is shorter
than the other. Here's another attempt:
% SOT
\defineparagraphs[concurrent][n=2]
\definestartstop[timelinea][
before=\concurrent,
after=\concurrent,
]
\definestartstop[timelineb][
before=\concurrent,
]
\starttext
\startconcurrent
\starttimelinea
\dorecurse{5}{\input ward}
\stoptimelinea
\starttimelineb
\dorecurse{5}{\input knuth}
\stoptimelineb
\stopconcurrent
\stoptext
% EOT
This loses much of the input text.
Can this be accomplished using LMTX and what would be the best approach?
Would this setupparagraphs, definecolumnset, synchronizestreams, or
possibly incomplete/experimental functionality?
Thank you!
