We have a more accurate limiter so you get one more word (keep in mind that the ... is part of the width). Then, when being used stretch and shrink kick in and your '4cm' gives too much space. I'll enable the features that freezes the spacing to fit the width but even then you will overflow. So, you need to decrease the 4cm.

Bump. This is still a problem. Can anyone acknowledge that the problem exists outside my own installation? If so, is there a work-around? An explanation?

[NTG-context] Index formatting difference LMTX and MkIV
Hello list, I have an index which uses multilevel indexing (a+b+c) to insert entries which contain snips of text. LMTX behaves differently from MkIV when trimming that text, resulting in line wrapping which does not happen with MKiV. I am not sure when this began -- I just picked up work again on this project this week after a hiatus of a couple of months. This does not occur in every instance, but it happens often enough in this 20 page two-column index to add another full page, and it looks ugly in comparison (although perhaps no index looks good). The source is the same for both LMTX and MkIV. There is no explicitly conditional coding. With MkIV, I get: With LMTX, I get: I am struggling to prepare a MWE, but will try to do so if there is no obvious difference to those who ken the code. The problem may not be unique to register creation, but I have not noticed other appearances of the issue in the text. -- Rik ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
