Re: [NTG-context] Page breaks with \defineparagraphs possible?
Hi Wolfgang,
\definetabulate[bilingual][|pA{normal,verytolerant,stretch}|pA{normal,verytolerant,stretch}|]
One more on this actually: how can I influence the white space between
the columns? I tried to set distance, but that didn't do anything.
Setting p(4cm) or so, made the paragraphs smaller, but did not impact
the white space between the columns.

Re: [NTG-context] Page breaks with \defineparagraphs possible?
Hi Wolfgang,
You can use the tabulate environment to create parallel paragraphs.
Just one thing for others, this solution as the same problem as
paragraphs: \placeinitial won't work.
I.e. this:
\setupinitial[text=#1]\placeinitial
inside the tabulate or paragraphs doesn't work (but here I simply use
a \hbox{\vbox{}\hfil\vbox{}} solution which works well enough I think,
as I only need this for the opening paragraph.

Hi Wolfgang,

Ah yes, that's working! Thank you so much!
One question on the pA{normal,verytolerant,stretch}: what does that do exactly?
From the manual I got that A only takes one key, what does specifying three
keys mean?

Dear all,
I've noticed that \defineparagraphs does not break across pages. That
would be a huge page saver in my case. Do I have any options for page
breaking across a set of parallel paragraphs?
Initially I just had a \hbox{\vtop{#1}\hfil\vtop{#2}} but obviously
that doesn't break, so went for more ConTeXt style, but couldn't see a
good mechanism.
You can use the tabulate environment to create parallel paragraphs.

The letters are very different in length -- some are long,

This way a letter could finish beyond the half of a page,

That's why I disabled page breaks from Title to the first
paragraph after Dear ...: it would be ugly having only
the title in one page and the rest in the next ones.
But there's a side effect: the title of the new letter
pulls the last two lines (the penalties are set to avoid
one-line widows) of the previous letter to the new page,
even when there's room for them on the previous page.
In this case I would like ConTeXt to break the page at
the end of the previous letter, before the next letter title.
That's why I've set
before={\blank[2*line]\page[preference]}
in LetterTitle. But it does not work.
Hi Massi,
how about before={\blank[2*line]\page[bigpreference]}?
As Wolgang noted before, a minimal sample is essential to be able to
provide a solution.

Re: [NTG-context] page breaks before titles
You can use the \testpage command where you can set how many
lines should remain on the page before a page breaks happens.
\setuphead[LetterTitle][before={\testpage[8]\blank[2*line]}]
If this doesn’t help you should make a *working* minimal example.

Thanks Wolfgang (and Pablo),
\testpage[lines] solved the problem.

Hi Malte,
since I experienced this before and Wolfgang kindly explained to me, the
workaround is:
\setuphead[section][after={\blank[samepage]}]
Only defining after for section (I think it) should work for other headings.
I hope it helps,
