Hi all.
I was surprised that when I set up (in the MKII and MKIV too) topspace parameter to a nonzero value and the value of the bottomspace parameter to zero value, then the size of bottomspace is the same as topspace size. On the other side, if I set topspace to zero value and the bottomspace to nonzero value, ConTeXt behaves as I expected.
Is this a normal behavior ConTeXt?
Ie. when bottomspace is zero, then the paper has only the tops and not bottoms?

Thanx

My minimal example (watch showlayout):

1. topspace is nonzero, bottomspace is zero value:

\setuplayout[
    backspace=0cm,
    leftmargin=0cm,
    width=fit,
    rightmargin=0cm,
    cutspace=0cm,
    topspace=2cm,
    headerdistance=0cm,
    header=0cm,
    height=fit,
    footerdistance=0cm,
    footer=0cm,
    bottomspace=0cm
]


\starttext
\showlayout
\input tufte
\stoptext


2. topspace is nonzero, bottomspace is nonzero value too:

\setuplayout[
    backspace=0cm,
    leftmargin=0cm,
    width=fit,
    rightmargin=0cm,
    cutspace=0cm,
    topspace=2cm,
    headerdistance=0cm,
    header=0cm,
    height=fit,
    footerdistance=0cm,
    footer=0cm,
    bottomspace=1cm
]


\starttext
\showlayout
\input tufte
\stoptext


3. topspace is zero, bottomspace is nonzero value:
\setuplayout[
    backspace=0cm,
    leftmargin=0cm,
    width=fit,
    rightmargin=0cm,
    cutspace=0cm,
    topspace=0cm,
    headerdistance=0cm,
    header=0cm,
    height=fit,
    footerdistance=0cm,
    footer=0cm,
    bottomspace=1cm
]


\starttext
\showlayout
\input tufte
\stoptext
