Hi Hans,

sorry to bother you again with this. I just had a look again on this issue with 20111112 12:34 MkIV. In the first part of your example, I see the three stacked footnotes and the first lines of the paragraph moved to the next page. In your second example I get the three notes stacked on the first page, one being in the bottom margin, and the paragraph properly wrapped, with two lines on the first page. This seems to be correct.

Unfortunately I don't understand how this should help me with my (now updated) previous example:

\starttext
\dorecurse{4}{\input knuth} \blank[2*line]

\inmargin[stack=yes]{This note ends up in the bottom margin}
\input tufte
\stoptext

It still looks the same. Does the stacking only influence the behaviour of (the breaking between) multiple margin notes?

Thank you for looking into this.  Best regards,
Stefan

Hi list!

In my document I have some margin notes that appear right before a page
break and so end up in the bottom margin, see the following example.

\starttext
\dorecurse{4}{\input knuth}
\blank[2*line]

\inmargin{This note ends up in the bottom margin}
%\margintext{This note ends up in the bottom margin}
\input tufte
\stoptext

Is it possible to automatically move the margin note in those cases to
the next page? I had a look at the manual where the issue is addressed.
As I understood it "\margintext{...}" should be able to handle this, but
it did not change anything in my example. In the garden I found
"\setupinmargin[stack=yes]" but this didn't help either.

This seems not to hard, but I can't find a way to fix it...

it's not supported in the current code but the next beta will have :

starttext

\dorecurse{4}{\input knuth} \blank[2*line]

\dorecurse{3}{\inmargin[stack=yes]{note}} \input tufte

\page

\dorecurse{4}{\input knuth} \blank[2*line]

\dorecurse{3}{\inmargin[stack=yes,bottomspace=10cm]{note}} \input tufte

\stoptext

with bottomspace one can set the threshold

Hans
