how to: doublesided component but no empty pages

[Uwe Koloska]

Hello Hans, hello all,

is it possible to use components in a document with doublesided layout, 
without forcing each component to start at an odd page?

I am making a journal and have all articles organized as components -- that 
helps setting each article and then combining all in one journal.  The 
titlepage and the last page are components as well.  So I don't want to 
have an empty page after the title- and backpage ...

Is this possible with components?  Is this a proper use of components, or 
shall I use another structure?

Uwe

right now the web page is in german only
but this will change as time goes by ;-)

In what sense components? You can set up chapter etc titles to start on any
page: 

\setupsection[chapter][page=yes] % right = default

if you use sectionblocks, you can also set the page key there. 

if you use standardmakeup, you can pass key/value pairs concerning page and
doublesided, see qrc.
