Dear all,
To put vertical space in an itemized construction is easy via
\startitemize[inbetween={\blank[30pt]}]
\item first
% a 30pt vertical space will be inserted here
\item second
% a 30pt vertical space will be inserted here
\item third
% a 30pt vertical space will be inserted here
\item fourth
\stopitemize
But, now assume I want to typeset the list in two columns:
\startitemize[inbetween={\blank[30pt]}]
\item first
\item second
\item third
\item fourth
\stopitemize
the vertical space is discarded, whereas I would like to get the
following result
\startitemize[inbetween={\blank[30pt]}]
\item first
\item second
% a 30pt vertical space will be inserted here
\item third
\item fourth
\stopitemize
Is there a way to achieve this?
Thanks,
Olivier

There is probably a nicer solution, but this works:
\startitemize[inbetween={\blank[30pt]\hrule height 0pt}]
Cheers, taco

I forgot to emphasize that the issue is with two columns mode.
Hence,
\startitemize[columns,inbetween={\blank[30pt]\hrule height 0pt}]
indeed put vertical space between items, so that then, there are no
columns anymore :)

Ah. I had:
\startcolumns
\startitemize[inbetween={\blank[30pt]\hrule height 0pt}]
..
\stopitemize
\stopcolumns
This should do the trick:
\startitemize[columns,unpacked][inbetween={\blank[30pt]}]
Cheers, Taco

Well, I must confess it works perfectly this way :)
Thanks a lot,
Olivier
