Good morning.

One reason for me to switch to ConTeXt were its macros for typesetting in columns that are highly superior to any such macro I have ever seen. (I typeset almost all my documnts in two columns.) But I am not able to supress one strange feature: some pages are one more line longer than they should be. It happen randomly -- or at least I was not able to find out when it happens. Therefore I'm not able to prepare an minimal file. I thougth that setting

Hard to see without example. You may try this (i have this in my local expermental setup)


\def\getmulticolumnlines
 {\mcscratchdimen-\columntextoffset
  \multiply\mcscratchdimen \plustwo
  \advance\mcscratchdimen \columntextheight
  \ifdim\precolumnboxheight>\zeropoint
     \advance\mcscratchdimen -\precolumnboxheight
  \fi
  \settotalinsertionheight
  \advance\mcscratchdimen -\totalinsertionheight
  \getnoflines\mcscratchdimen
  % added 30/7/2004
  \ifnum\layoutlines>\zerocount \ifnum\noflines>\layoutlines
    \noflines\layoutlines
  \fi \fi
  \nofcolumnlines\noflines}

Another option is to switch to column sets (see columns.pdf),
