==============================
\starttext
\defineparagraphs[TwoColumns][n=2,distance=2cm]
\setupparagraphs[TwoColumns][each][width=5cm,tolerance=stretch]
\setupframedtexts[frame=off]
\startframedtext[middle]
\startalignment[middle]
\startTwoColumns
\hbox spread \textwidth{Here is the first line 1a}
\TwoColumns
Here \hfill is \hfill the \hfill first \hfill line \hfill 1b
\stopTwoColumns
\startTwoColumns
Here \hfill is \hfill the \hfill second \hfill line \hfill 2a
\TwoColumns
Here \hfill is \hfill the \hfill second \hfill line \hfill 2b
\stopTwoColumns
\stopalignment
\stopframedtext
\stoptext
==============================
How can I get the first column right? Note that, according to the manual,
\textwidth gives the width of a column but in this case it apparently
gives a full \hsize.
RELATED QUESTION: How can I control the distance between rows? I do not
want any extra whitespace between rows (i.e., except the normal
interparagraph space).
Please advise!
Best
Idris
