Re: [NTG-context] description renders unintended results

[Otared Kavian]

Hi Floris, Since you specify align=left in the setup of your description, I don’t see why the output would be unexpected. With the following version of your example code I get the attached PDF output. %%% begin  \setuppapersize[A5] \definedescription[descr][ headstyle=bold, style=normal, % align=flushright, location=hanging, width=broad, margin=1cm ] \starttext \startdescr{Para} This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it. The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented. This is another paragraph under the "Para" item. \startdescr{Sub Item}    This is a description of an item which is within the "Para" item.    \stopdescr \startdescr{Sub Item}   Another Sub Item     \stopdescr \stopdescr \startdescr{Short} A short item that's not part of that really long "Para" item. \stopdescr \stoptext %%% end
