[NTG-context] bug?: interaction between columns and background

2006-09-01 Thread Mojca Miklavec
Hello, When I place a graphic in the bacground and switch columns on, the background gets shifted for some reason. I hope that the problem will be evident from this example (since it behaves in a pretty random way - sometimes it's OK and sometimes it's pretty much shifted to the left). (Using

2006-09-01 Thread Fidel Viegas
Hello folks,I have been playing around with Context for over a month and I think it is a fantastic tool. Comparing it with LaTex it is a more general tool and gives you far more options. Now, I was wondering if any Context user has created photobooks with contexts and how they went about doing it.
