[NTG-context] Space before/after combinations + centring

Hi! I'm in the process of converting some projects to LMTX. Combinations lacking “”before” and “after” keys (that place content before/after the *entire* combination, rather than the individual cell pairs), I came up with the following ugliness – which worked for longer than it deserved:

[NTG-context] Ampersand in \unprotect fails in LMTX

Hi! the following example compiles with MkIV but fails in LMTX: \unprotect \setupinteraction [\c!author={Foo & Bar}] %% {Foo \& Bar} works for MkIV and LMTX \protect \starttext\null\stoptext LMTX: 1 \unprotect 2 \setupinteraction 3 [\c!author={Foo & Bar}] 4 >>

[NTG-context] Section head placement wrong when the after key is used

Hi! In the following example the 2nd section head stays on page one when the “after” key is used. If the blackrule is commented out the section head moves to page two as intended. What's the reason the section head stays on the previous page when the “after” is used and how to fix this?

[NTG-context] Subfigures, referencing and resetting counter
