The margin notes are always placed in the right margin (on even pages in the left margin but with left<->right swapped margin dimensions). Using \showframe i can verify that the margins swap between odd and even pages, but i do not understand why the dimensions of the inner margin should have an effect on the placement of objects in the outer margin. Is this again a we-have-started-ConTeXt-mainly-for-singlesided-documents issue? Regards, Jens
