 hi there,

 i am puzzled about the following issue.
 there's extra whitespace between the centered line
 and startlines, while when using \crlf, there is not.
 \startlines is an environment i guess (i come from latex)
 and some environments sometimes add extra whitespace
 in latex, if i recall correctly.

 when i use \nowhitespace between midaligned and startlines,
 the whitespace is smaller, but still there, depending on
 where the actual text is on the page.

 how can i get rid of the whitespace entirely?


Use the before and after mechanism.

\setuplines[before={\startnarrower[3cm]},after=\stopnarrower]

\midaligned{test}
\startlines
There snores -- I mean sleeps -- my wife so frail.

\stoplines

thanks for the tip.
sometimes there still is extra whitespace.  but \nowhitespace
seems to supress them without problems.

i think i should also add, that the document has

\setuptolerance [strict]

so it's not verystrict...
