Hello,
thanks for the help, attached snippet seems to work.
So I guess my question basicly was caused by misunderstandings
in using define/setup commands.
Is there a document describing the grammar of context---how to
use or to combine \setupsomething, \definesomething
ttartstosomethig or \setupanything{something=[]}?
Just combine them in the way you need it in your document.

Sorry for stupid question, but is there a difference
between \nohyphens and \nothyphenated ?
The second line are the commands which are used when your write
\setupalign[flushleft,nothyphenated] but when I wrote my mail
it wasn't possible to use \setupalign with the style key
(works now but i guess only in mkiv).

[NTG-context] Hanging indent in startstoplines for poems
Hello,
I have a question regarding hanging indentation in
startstoplines-environment.
So I try to use ConTeXt to typeset poems. In some texts/poems
ar long lines, which have to be broken. They should be broken
into hanging indentations.
That means:
Every line of poem should start left.
If a poemline is longer than text width, the rest of this line
should be indented in a new text line. (just like here)
The width of this indentation should be fixed (e.g. 3em).
The width of this indentation shouldn't depend on a word.
It would be fine, if I don't have to set (poem)linebreaks.
Additionally, it should still be able to indent a verse
(e.g. a chorus), for instance using narrower.
Hyphenation should be switched off inside the poems.
So I found \setuphanging, but these instruction seems made
another job---indenting a paragraph to be placed right beside
the first words of the paragraph.
That's the example, which does not work (all lines are indented)
%-- snip ---
\definestartstop[verse]
[command={\setupwhitespace[1.2em]}% % follow the grid
,before={\setupindenting[-2em,yes]% % trial to construct
\startnarrower[2em]%% hanging indent
\startalignment[flushleft]% % even inter-word-dist.
\startlines%% no justification
\indenting[first]}%
,after={\stoplines%
\stopalignment%
\stopnarrower%
\endgraf}]
\starttext
Three lines, first should be broken:
\startverse
FIRST---this should be one line, please remove linebreaks made by the
mail programms or similiar possibly until HERE.
SECOND---next line without carriage return or line feed,
THIRD---because startstoplines accept linebreaks.
FOURTH---is also one who don't make much words.
\stopverse
\stoptext
%-- snap ---
Any idea how to do that?
Thanks for help
Torsten

@Hans, can you change \setupalign to
\unexpanded\def\setupalign
{\dosingleargument\dosetupalign}
else it can't be used in the style key.

sure, but i'd expected you to implement a proper align=... then -)
i made a few more in that module unexpanded
i'll upload a beta in a couple of minutes so you were just in time

no problem but what comes next, spacebefore/after, setups,
interlinespace ...
new keys are a way is it a good idea to add a new one just to use have a
setup function like alignment?
