When you want more control about the spacing before and after the description
entries the following modification can help:
\definedescription
[outline]
[style=normal,
width=fit,
distance=1ex,
before=, % before=\endgraf
after=,
headcommand=\groupedcommand{}{:}]
\definestartstop
[outlines]
[before={\blank[line]},
after={\blank[line]}]
\starttext
\input ward
\startoutlines
\outline{Welcome} Tea
\outline{Introduction} Tufte or Knuth? and more and more and more and more to
see what hanging does.
\outline{Snack} Chocolate Cake
\outline{Discussion} Knuth or Tufte?
\outline{Open End} Bear and wine
\stopoutlines
\input weisman
\stoptext

Dear All,
I’d like to use a mechanism that allows me to create an itemized list with my

However, instead of the above I would like to
— have the result “packed”, i.e. without lines between the descriptions
— have a stopper (“:”) after the label
— have the text of the description begin after the stopper and not at a fixed
indentation (distance=…)
How do I do that?
Thanks,
Matthias
The following works, but I suspect that there may be a better way to get
the packing.
\define[1]\outlinehead{#1:}
\definedescription[outline]
\setupdescription [outline]
[headstyle=bold,
style=normal,
% alternative=hanging,
width=fit,
distance=1ex,
before={\blank[back]},
headcommand=\outlinehead,
]
\starttext
\outline{Welcome} Tea
\outline{Introduction} Tufte or Knuth? and more and more and more
and more to see what hanging does.
\outline{Snack} Chocolate Cake
\outline{Discussion} Knuth or Tufte?
\outline{Open End} Bear and wine
\stoptext
Try it both with and without the hanging alternative.
And for me, beer is preferable to bear.
