Hello,

I am trying to change the width of a paragraph on a page. I found \defineparagraphs and \setupparagraphs and it almost works. But for doublesided documents the text on verso pages is incorrectly aligned. I tried [location=inner], but the macros do not seem to be aware of that. I also found \startlocal (\startlokaal) in the ConTeXt getting started pdf, but Mk IV does not know \startlocal (any more?).

My example:

% setup the page format
\definepapersize[wissenschaft][width=170mm,height=240mm]
% use the new page format
\setuppapersize[wissenschaft]
% shape the page 
\setuplayout[topspace=40pt,
			header=0pt,
			headerdistance=0pt,
			backspace=42pt,
			leftmargin=0pt,
			width=280pt,
			height=560pt,
			rightmargindistance=20pt,
			rightmargin=100pt,
			footer=0pt]
%\showframe
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]

\defineparagraphs
     [fullwidth][n=1,before={\blank},after={\blank}]
  \setupparagraphs
     [fullwidth][1][width=400pt]

\starttext
\input tufte
\startfullwidth
\input tufte
\stopfullwidth
\input knuth
\startfullwidth
\input tufte
\stopfullwidth
\input tufte
\stoptext

My questions are: Is there no more \startlocal, how to locally adjust the layout on a page and how to make the example work?

Thanks,
Andy
