\setupinteractionmenu
  [before=\vskip5pt,
   between=\vskip2.5pt,
   after=\vfill]

This worked nicely, once I changed to:

\setupinteractionmenu
  [before=\vskip5pt,
   inbetween=\vskip2.5pt,
   after=\vfill]

I am making some assumptions here:

1. before =\vskip5pt will put 5 points of space before the menu is set. 

2. inbetween=\vskip2.5pt refers to the space between buttons place with \but.

3. after=\vfill refers to the space after the menu is set

Based on what I have above, it seems that all I really need is

\setupinteractionmenu
  [between=\vskip2.5pt]

At least, this seems to work equally well.

Comments?

before  : before first menu item 
between : between menu items  
after   : after last menu item 

menu items can be \but \txt \got etc ending with \\

For bottom and top menus: use the left middle and right keys
