Is there a way to place items in "horizontal" columns?
I have placed some math problems in a column set, like this:
\starttext
\startcolumns[n=2]
\startitem 1+1=\stopitem
\startitem 1+2=\stopitem
\startitem 4+1=\stopitem
\startitem 1+4=\stopitem
\startitem 3+1=\stopitem
\startitem 1+5=\stopitem
\startitem 2+1=\stopitem
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
This confuses my readers though. They are typically used to seeing math
problems presented more in "rows" than in columns, so for instance,
stead of this arrangement...
1 5 9
2 6 10
3 7 11
4 8 12
(the above is made more confusing if columns are split after the first
"row" across a page)
...they are used to solving problems in this arrangement...
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9..
How can I arrange my items to appear more in rows or "horizontal"-like
columns in this way?
\starttext
\startitemize[horizontal,three]
\startitem 1+1= \stopitem
\startitem 1+2= \stopitem
\startitem 4+1= \stopitem
\startitem 1+4= \stopitem
\startitem 3+1= \stopitem
\startitem 1+5= \stopitem
\startitem 2+1= \stopitem
\stopitemize
\stoptext
