Re: changing number of columns

[Willi Egger <w.egger@boede.nl>]

Unfortunately this will not work with columnsets. Those always use a complete page. So after stating \startcolumnset there is always a page break, as is after \stopcolumnset.
If you intend to place text before and after the piece where you use two colums then you should think of another solution as mentioned by placing the columnpart in a float with combination.
