Please try it and report back, i.e. document it in the wiki. Someone has to do it… I only ever used plain \column.

Sorry, the wiki is very outdated and confusing in this regard. I’m planning to research and document columns better (my talk in Bassenge covered only a few aspects of old/new columns and columnsets), but have a lot of other things at hand… If your ConTeXt installation is quite recent, you have texmf-context/doc/context/documents/general/manuals/pagecolumns.pdf This is quite new and I don’t know how usable.

Re: [NTG-context] Columns with non-equal width; nested columns
Hello,
thanks for reaction - so I'm starting with column sets (@Wolfgang: text from
column 2a may flow into 2b).
My code so far:
\definecolumnset[example][n=3,balancing=no]
\definecolumnsetspan[wide][n=2,background=contrast]
\setupexternalfigures[location=default]
\setuphead[subsubsubsubsubject][style=bold]
\starttext
\startcolumnset[example]
\startcolumnsetspan[wide]
\externalfigure[hacker][width=95mm]
\stopcolumnsetspan
\dorecurse{2}{
\subsubsubsubsubject{Sub}
\input ward
}
\column
\column
\darkred
\starttabulate[|rB|lp|]
\NC a
\NC
AA
\NC\NR
\NC aa
\NC
AAA
\NC\NR
\stoptabulate
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
produces overlapping lines at the end of the first column.
- How to avoid this?
- Being in a columnset environment, is there a way to tell context "go to third
column" (regardless in which column I am currently typing)?
- Altough I found some wiki material about column sets (e.g.
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setupcolumnsetstart or columns.pdf), I found
nothing about "page columns" - can you give me a link?
- All wiki examples use "1" at the place of "nesting level":
"
\setupcolumnsetstart[...][...][...][...]
[...] columnset name
[...] nesting level
[...] number of individual column in columnset
[...] starting line (1 = start at the top)
...
\setupcolumnsetstart[three][1][1][15]
^
| -- HERE
"
Is there a sample which would use an other number? - I'm asking as I guess my
task has to do with nested column sets.
Best regards,
Lukas

I tried the following:

\startcolumns[n=2] % How to tell that ratio between columns should be 2:1?
\input knuth % Be 1a
Such a layout is not possible with simple old columns.
Try columnsets or page columns (see manuals of the same name).
