flow text
across several pages without manually breaking it, and in columns, I haven't
found a way to implement asymmetric columns.
How can I achieve this layout in ConTeXt? this is a MWE but it does not work
properly:
\definecolumnset[mymixedcolumn][n=2]
\setupcolumnset[mymixedcolumn:1]
Hello,
I managed to resolve the issue - which turns out bcos I had 2 back2back
columnset definitions. So instead, I combined them into 1 and the result
was ok.
*Before (leads to blank page or page with symmetrical columns):*
\definecolumnset[2col][n=2, distance=3.5mm, page=no]
\setupcolumnset
of \section or \subject in this matter (seems to be
somehow interfering with asymmetrical columnset).
\usemodule[newcolumnsets]
...
% \subject{} \definecolumnset[soi1][n=3, distance=3mm, page=yes]
% \definecolumnset[currency][n=3, page=yes]
\setupcolumnset[soi1:1][width=.25\makeupwidth
etuplayout [grid=yes]
\definecolumnset [numbered] [n=2]
\setupcolumnset [numbered] [distance=0.5cm,frame=on]

Hi Wolfgang,
thanks for the info. I will download the new manual right now.

Hi Peter,
the new columnset mechanism accepts only two arguments for the
\setupcolumnset command but you can load the old code with
\usemodule[old-columnsets].
How you can apply backgrounds per column with the new code is shown in a
example in the manual.

It seems a few examples from the columns manual --

Hi,
According to the columns manual, the following should produce a
two-column layout with the first column being 1/3 and the second
column being 2/3 the makeupwidth:

baselineskip is also 12pt!), while the gap shows up in the *second*

I was advised to report the bug back to this list, with an even more
minimized example.
Here it is below.
This bug occurs in both mkiv and mkii, in the latest versions (current
beta).

kiv i merged page-new.tex into
page-set without noticing that the balancing code was just experimental
and not even working currently
- so, the balancing code in page-set is just a hook
- in mkiv i had actually nilled the code so no error there
we can do some manual balancing, like:
\setupc
balance=no,
tolerance=verytolerant]
\definecolumnset [NormalThree] [n=3]
\setupcolumnset [NormalThree]

\setupcolumnset, and \setupcolumnsetlines. My concern is, does this
apply after other layout is performed, so that any test performed above

ght. What are the units of the argument to \testcolumn?
