Hi,
I have encountered another issue with columns: it seems that in some cases
the height of the content is not entirely accounted for. From the small
experiments I made, the problem seems to only occur when the content of the
left column is larger than the content of the right one by a fraction of
the line height.
The example below demonstrates the issue.
The same issue seems to occur with \startboxedcolumns ... \stopboxedcolumns
but not with \startsimplecolumns ... \stopsimplecolumns.
Is there a way to have a frame or hrules around the full content of
\startcolumns ... \stopcolumns?
_______________________________________________________________________
\starttext
% The left frame is slightly too small
\startcolumns[n=2,frame=on]
Line \par
\blank[1.5ex]
Line \par
Line \par
Line
\stopcolumns
\blank[big]
% Same issue with hrules: the lower one overlaps with the content of the
left column
\hrule
\startcolumns[n=2]
Line \par
\blank[1.5ex]
Line \par
Line \par
Line
\stopcolumns
\hrule
\blank[big]
% Same issue with \startframed ... \stopframed
\startframed[offset=none]
\startcolumns[n=2]
Line \par
\blank[1.5ex]
Line \par
Line \par
Line
\stopcolumns
\stopframed
\blank[big]
% Using strut=local seems to fix the issue in this case...
\startframed[offset=none,strut=local]
\startcolumns[n=2]
Line \par
\blank[1.5ex]
Line \par
Line \par
Line
\stopcolumns
\stopframed
\blank[big]
% ... but becomes a problem on this example...
\startframed[offset=none,strut=local]
\startcolumns[n=2]
A longer phrase which does not fit on one single line \par
Line \par
\stopcolumns
\stopframed
\blank[big]
% ... which works fine without strut=local
\startframed[offset=none]
\startcolumns[n=2]
A longer phrase which does not fit on one single line \par
Line \par
\stopcolumns
\stopframed
\blank[big]
% Using \startsimplecolumns ... \stopsimplecolumns seems to consistently
give a good enough frame
% (although with maybe a bit too much white space at the bottom in this
case)
\startframed[offset=none]
\startsimplecolumns[n=2]
Line \par
\blank[1.5ex]
Line \par
Line \par
Line
\stopsimplecolumns
\stopframed
\stoptext
