Hi all!
I came across the following behaviour: cboxes seem to suppress white space in certain conditions.
In the following example there is no whitespace output between paragraph no. 2 und 3. Yet, if I change \setupwhitespace to 'none' or if I do not enclose the paragraphs in cboxes then the whitespaces between the paragraphs appear as expected.
Does anyone know a workaround for this 'strange' behaviour of cboxes?
Thanks for your attention, --Stefan
\setupoutput[pdftex] \setupinteraction[openaction={firstpage,FitHeight},state=start] \setupwhitespace[small] \setupblank[100pt] \def\Para#1{\cbox{#1 \dorecurse{10}{this is some paragraph text}}\par} \starttext \Para{1} \blank[big] \Para{2} \blank[medium] \Para{3} \blank[small] \Para{4} \stoptext
has to do with the way tex handles vbox/vtop's (tex does not have dual baseline boxes)
\def\Para#1{\cbox{#1 \dorecurse{10}{\begstrut this is some paragraph text \endstrut}}\par}
or something:
\long \def\Para#1#2\EndPar{\startalign[middle]#1 #2\stopalign}
Thanks for the reply. I am using the \startalign option now.
