Subject: Definestartstop, Narrower, and Blockquotej
Date: Sat, 17 Dec 2022 09:03:20 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <09D8F96A-1291-45CA-A7B4-87346E3A69A7@ca.rr.com> (raw)

I get a decidedly odd (or, at least, unexpected by me) result from this, based on the example on the contextgarden page for definestartstop:

\starttext

\defineblank[ExtractDistance][3pt]
\definestartstop[Extract][
   style=slanted,
   before={\blank[ExtractDistance]
      \setupnarrower[left=2in,right=1in]
      \startnarrower[left,right]
      \noindent},
   after={\stopnarrower
      \blank[ExtractDistance]
      \indenting[next]}]
%Now the following commands are available: \startExtract and \stopExtract

\starttext
The extract from Knuth
\startExtract \input knuth \stopExtract
\stoptext

But now, blockquote is altered:

\startblockquote
\input lorem
\stopblockquote

But not narrower itself:

\startnarrower
\input lorem
\stopnarrower

\stoptext
