This command alleviated the problem without eliminating all the shorter pages. \setuplayout[grid=yes] actually made it a lot worse; almost every page was several lines short. I suspect it might have something to with itemizations (of which there are quite a few); this seems to confuse (Con)TeX(t). If you really want your problem solved, you should post an example.

Hi,
i can add to this:
{\hangafter=-2\hangindent=5em \noindent\input tufte\relax}
will not work, but
{\hangafter=-2\hangindent=5em \noindent\input tufte\relax\par}
will
But that is not strictly ConTeXt related, is it? It is more a matter
of local/global values before \par is complete?!

Can I be sure now to have the current version?
Or even a super-current version...

Hello Peter,
with your code +
\button[width=2.5mm, height=2.5mm]{Please, print me!}[test]
\button[width=2.5mm, height=2.5mm]{Not this time!}[test]
I get two empty square buttons which look about 2.5 mm wide and high. I
could send you a screenshot or the resulting pdf file.
I tried the ConTeXt version 2003.9.24. But maybe I don't understand
your question.

Hi Patrick, Somehow I really felt like walking on thin ice when I wrote the email you mention. Well, I knew it will be difficult to serve the different aims of communication: - politeness and - political correctness I asked some friends, and we discussed on this topic, trying to find a suitable way, to get the message transferred, and not to hurt anybodies feelings - as the later is very quickly done, and it's a pity, cause often quite unnecessary. So finally, after carefully looking at the pro and cons, I decided to write a bi-lingual answer, exactly one sentence each: Gibt es etwa Bücher zum Thema ConTeXt? (Did you ment editing books *on* ConTeXt?) Sure, I have to admit that I used brackets for the second sentence. Btw.: Why didn't you quote that second sentence? So it might have given you the feeling that I made a *main* answer and a less important. But my intention was only to stay in the logical structure of the mail I was answering to: - Jörg once started a threat in German - ok, as you told him this was an initial mistake. - Willi (a typical multilingual Dutch) also answered in German So I wrote my contribution also in the main language of this thread, AND, to stay in the rules of the mailing list, I translated it, as best as I could, into a kind of international English. Obviously my mistake were the brackets. I knew I am walking on thin ice ... and so I forgot to look on my orthography carefully. Thank you Patrick for pointing me to that. Steffen P.S.
