That was incorrect. \setupmarginblocks governs the placement and of course the last call gets precedence when several are placed on one page. I would like to be able to place the notes individually to the left or to the right, but startmarginblock has no [location=left/right] parameter]. It should in principle not be a problem to place floating notes left and right into the margin independently? (2) In doublesided layout startmarginblock places the notes on the right side neatly centered in the margin. But on the left it does not, there they are pressed against the left edge of the page. In both the doublesided as in the singlesided setup i gave \setuplayout[margin=30mm]. yours sincerely, dr. H. van der Meer
