Instead if \choose you can use \binom which is the recommended way in context. The \dbinom command sets the content in display style while \tbinom use textstyle. \starttext Using \tex{binom} in text $\binom{n}{\frac{n}{2}}$. Using \tex{dbinom} in text $\dbinom{n}{\frac{n}{2}}$. Using \tex{tbinom} in text $\tbinom{n}{\frac{n}{2}}$. \startformula \binom{n}{\frac{n}{2}} \stopformula \stoptext Wolfgang ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
