structure head alignment nullifies spaceskip

structure head alignment nullifies spaceskip

Hi,

is there a way to have \spaceskip working in a centered section
head?

I have something similar to these exaggerated values:

··8<·····························································

\def\broadspacing{%
  \dontleavehmode%
  \spaceskip 1em plus .5em minus .5em%
}
\starttext

\setuphead[section][%
  style={\WORD\broadspacing},
]

% This one is left aligned but correctly spaced.
\section{test test test}

\setuphead[section][%
  style={\WORD\broadspacing},
  align=middle,
]

% This one is centered but spaced too tightly.
\section{test test test}

\stoptext

··8<·····························································

As you can see, adding “align=middle” to the section setup leads
to the \spaceskip setting being ignored. Any idea how to space my
capitalized words in section heads?

Thanks very much, Philipp

\setuphead
  [section]
  [      style=WORD,
         align=middle,
   textcommand={\setuptolerance[space]}]

Maybe better is “textcommand=\SectionCommand” with

\define[1]\SectionCommand
  {\setuptolerance[space]#1}

Thanks a lot, Wolfgang, I hadn’t thought of “textcommand”.
Headings work (and look) like a charm now.

Best regards, Philipp

This can also be of interest for you (copied from the source):

\setuphead[section][style=\sca,textstyle={\kerncharacters[.5]}] \section{Section}

Thanks, but I already had capital spacing (factor .05 with my
bodoni font) defined in my section font command.

The long way (across a couple of definition files):

··8<·····························································

\definecharacterkerning[capitals]
\setupcharacterkerning [capitals] [factor=.05]

\unexpanded\def\cap{\setcharacterkerning[capitals]}

\def\broadspacing{\dontleavehmode\spaceskip .33em plus.25em minus.05em
                                \xspaceskip .66em plus.25em minus.05em}

\unexpanded\def\fontsection{\setupbodyfont[bodoni-of,12pt]\cap\WORDS\broadspacing}

\setuphead[section][
  …
  textstyle=\fontsection,
  …
]

··8<·····························································

(I just typed this from another laptop screen so beware of
typos.)

Alternatively I have a definition commented out that would rely
on the cpsp font feature instead -- but I don’t really notice an
effect when I turn it on.
