Re: [NTG-context] reduced space below chapter title

Thanks Wolfgang. Clearly that fixes the problem. I also came up with
another solution which avoids the need to define a MyChapterCommand,
by first setting up the normal chapter as:
\setuphead
[chapter]
[header=empty,alternative=middle,style=bold,numbercommand=\groupedcommand{}{\blank[2cm]},after={\blank[3cm]}]
and then setting up a mychapter as:
\definehead[mychapter][chapter]
\setuphead[mychapter][header=empty,alternative=middle,style=bold,numbercommand=\groupedcommand{}{\blank[2cm]},after={\blank[.5cm]}]
That gives me the result I am after as well as maintaining the style
of the standard chapter head.
You can add a check for odd/even chapter numbers and use only a single
command.
\startsetups[chapter:after]
\ifodd\namedheadnumber{chapter}
\blank[4cm]
\else
\blank[1cm]
\fi
\stopsetups
\setuphead
[chapter]
[after=\directsetup{chapter:after}]
% \setuphead
% [title]
% [after={\blank[...]}]
\starttext
\dorecurse{10}
{\chapter{Chapter #1}
\input knuth}
\stoptext

Hi list,
I am attempting to achieve, for every second chapter, to have only
one line of space between the chapter title and the text that follows.
I looked at the following example in the wiki:
\setuppapersize[A6][A6]
\setupbodyfont[8pt]
\def\MyChapterCommand#1#2%
{\vbox to 4cm\bgroup
{#1\hskip.75em #2}
\vss
\egroup}
\setuphead[chapter][header=nomarking, command=\MyChapterCommand]
\starttext
\chapter{test} \input tufte
\stoptext
and presumed that I could adjust that to something like 1cm instead
of 4cm.
The problem is that when I try to process the original example, I get
a fatal error at the line which reads \chapter{test} \input tufte.
I'm not sure why that error, but that aside, would the
\def\MyChapterCommand approach suggested above be the right way to
achieve my purpose? In other words, I want the text that follows the
chapter title to follow immediately for specific chapters, rather
than the considerable vertical space that follows the default setup
for chapter titles.
Julian
Change
\def\MyChapterCommand#1#2%
to
\unexpanded\def\MyChapterCommand#1#2%
or
\define[2]\MyChapterCommand
