Overwritten text with newcolumnsets

Overwritten text with newcolumnsets

[Charles Vejnar]

Hi,

I am trying to get a two-column document with figures. After failing 
with \startcolumns, I tried with newcolumnsets. But the most basic 
example (see below) is not working properly. The text at the bottom of 
the first page gets overwritten by the first two line of the column.

I think this problem was also reported on Sept 22, 2016 by Jose Luis 
Arellano on this mailing-list.

Do you confirm the problem? Any way/plan to fix it?

Thanks so much for your help.

Best,
Charles


% start of example
\usemodule[newcolumnsets]
\definecolumnset[example][n=2]
\starttext
\startcolumnset[example]
\dorecurse{12}{\input knuth \par}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
% end of example

Thanks Hans. It did fix it.

I am trying to add a figure now using \placefigure. But the placement in 
brackets is always ignored. AFAIK it's normal to get a figure at the top 
of a new page when it's larger than a column but it's also always on the 
left. I would like to get it horizontally centered (on the top of the 
next page as it is already). Any way to achieve that?

Thanks again for your help.

Charles

Please show us your code, otherwise nobody can spot the problem.

\setuplayout[grid=yes]
\setupbodyfont[10pt]
\definecolumnset[example][n=2]
\starttext
\startcolumnset[example]
\dorecurse{7}{\input knuth \par}
\placefigure[center]{Legend.}{\hbox{\externalfigure[dummy][height=8cm]}}
\dorecurse{8}{\input knuth \par}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
