Looking

I've attached the example now.
Hans, the problem is that the bottom set [n=3,balance=yes]
does not balance at all, it just fills the avaiable space
top-to-bottom until the text runs out.
Best wishes,

Hi,
When using columnsets is it possible to have footnotes placed at the
bottom of the page rather than in columns? I searched the
documentation and haven't found a way to do this.
Minimal examples.
Using columnsets:
\definecolumnset[twocolumn][n=2]
\starttext
\startcolumnset
I'm trying to typeset English and German texts in two columns.
With the following example every bilingual section goes on a new
page. How can I avoid that?
(Using only columns instead of columnsets I get single-section
pages with alternating languages.)
%% setup
\definecolumnset[twocol][n=2
[visual]
\definecolumnset[example][n=4,distance=5mm]
\startuseMPgraphic{columnrule}
path p ; p := unitsquare xyscaled (OverlayWidth+5mm,OverlayHeight) ;
draw lrcorner p -- urcorner p ;
setbounds currentpicture to p ;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\defineoverlay[columnrule][\useMPgraphic{columnrule
It works! Thanks Wolfgang.

o How can I tell ConTeXt to balance the last page? I've tried something
like
\definecolumnset[two][n=2,tolerance=tolerant,distance=12bp]
\setupcolumnset [two][balance=yes]
but this doesn't work.
ah, column sets ... see an earlier
]
\definecolumnset [test-1] [n=2]
\definecolumnset [test-2] [n=3]
\starttext
\startcolumnset [test-1] \dorecurse {1}{\input tufte \par} \stopcolumnset
\startcolumnset [test-2] \dorecurse {2}{\input ward \par} \stopcolumnset
\page
\setupcolumnset [test-1] [balance=yes]
\setupcolumnset [test-2] [balance
tried to use a
columnset span but the problem was the same.
Can anyone provide me with some hints so that I
can use some background color in columnsetareas ?
Thanks,
Miguel Queirós
\definecolumnset[example][n=2]
\setupcolors [state=start,conversion=yes, reduction=no, rgb=yes, cmyk=yes

Hi out there,
what is wrong with the following code?
\starttext
\definecolumnset[twocol][n=2]
\startcolumnset[twocol]
\dorecurse{10}{\section{hello}
\dorecurse{8}{\input tufte \par}}
\stopcolumnset

it gives me:

(not good)
Is there a way to do this? Probably yes with something \if-like?
After sttudying the sources and a bunch of trial and errors I can come up
with the following solution which works for a two solumns set!
\definecolumnset[example][n=2]
\define[1]\MargText{%
\ifodd\mofcolumns

Great. This works. Now for something different. While learning ConTeXt,
I find that often the syntax escapes me. Take for instance:
\definecolumnset[example
