Hi Troy, You are right, I am responsible for the old http://wiki.contextgarden.net/SlideWithSteps which is just adapted from what I used to use in the old good times of Plain TeX. But I wasn't successful in changing the macros to make them work in mkiv. I think the approach should

Use \setupblank[fixed,line]. Aditya's solution sees to force content at the bottom of the page to stay on the current page whereas Wolfgang's forces it to the next page. Both have benefits to me, so thanks for both solutions. Troy

When a page begins to get full, TeX automatically squeezes lines slightly closer together (vertically) to help the page break where it thinks that it should. If the page is less than full, then the (vertical) distance between lines is fixed. How can I make this fixed distance remain fixed even
