Hi list,
When I define an items group, it seems to mess up the spacing for a nested item group. See example below. Any ideas?
I’m typesetting with

on an M1 Mac.
Thanks!
Gavin

This is what is happening: \usemodule[visual] \defineitemgroup[questions] \starttext This numbered list uses my item group \quotation{questions.} The itemize inside is missing space above item (a). \startquestions[n][inbetween={AAA}] \item \fakewords{15}{20} \startitemize[a][left=(,stopper=,right=),before={BBB}] \item \fakewords{10}{15} \item \fakewords{10}{15} \stopitemize \item \fakewords{10}{15} \stopquestions This numbered list uses itemize. The itemize inside has the expected space above item (a). \startitemize[n][inbetween={AAA}] \item \fakewords{15}{20} \startitemize[a][left=(,stopper=,right=),before={BBB}] \item \fakewords{10}{15} \item \fakewords{10}{15} \stopitemize \item \fakewords{10}{15} \stopitemize \stoptext Note that in the first case, the inbetween does not get inserted at the start of the nested itemization (because, ConTeXt doesn't think that they are nested as the names are different). But the before key of the nested itemization doesn't get inserted in both cases because ConTeXt thinks that the itemization is nested! You can change this behavior by using: \unprotect \c_strc_itemgroups_spacing_mode\plusone \protect in which case both outputs are similar. @Hans: Does it make sense to add a setups key to \setupitemize to keep such changes local?

I changed my documents so I use three levels of question, which solved the problem. My code might be more readable if the different levels had different names (question, part, subpart), rather than nested questions in questions. This was my original intention. I was certainly surprised by the result. Now I’m moving on to the problem set's diagrams with MetaFun.

For multiple choice questions, it is nice to have the columns option. However, this produces somewhat inconsistent results. In the code below, without Aditya's tweak, there is space before the choices in the first two cases, which use columns, but not the last. Aditya’s tweak makes them more consistent. Adding [columns, one] to the last \startchoices makes the results consistent. When doing that, I noticed that the spacing between column rows is slightly larger than the spacing between items without columns. So, I am happy using [columns, one] as a solution for multiple choice problems, just somewhat surprised by the difference.
