I'm impressed...
So you really have an MBA in Klingon! :O)

I just tried with
style={\switchtobodyfont[small]\setuplinewidth[(x)pt]\setupinterlinespace[line=2.4ex]}
and several values for (x) in
\startinteractionmenu[myMenu]
\placecontent[
criterium=all,
alternative=b,
% style={\switchtobodyfont[small]\setupinterlinespace[line=2.4ex]},
style={\switchtobodyfont[small]\setuplinewidth[150pt]\setupinterlinespace[line=2.4ex]},
interaction=all,
before={\blank[small]\startnarrower[left,right]},
after={\stopnarrower\blank[medium]}]
\stopinteractionmenu
but that generates a compile error. Grrr...
Best,
Alan
