All,
Why is it that the rest of the page after Answers on page 4 of the
compiled pdf is blank?

I have a similar problem. Attached is the (not so) minimal example that I could prepare. (This is part of my way on mathalignment). See the page break on page 2, while all the page is empty.

This compatibility feature may disappear in the future. So, I suggest not to use it. There are subtle differences from the \type{amsmath} syntax, and it is much easier (and logical) to follow the \CONTEXT\ syntax. \section{Missing Features} As compared to \AmSTeX\ and \type{amsmath} package of \LATEX, the only display math environment missing from \CONTEXT\ is \type{multline}. I do not completely understand what is the expected behavior of \type{multline} environment. If someone understands what it is supposed to do, and needs that feature, make a feature request :) Subformula numbering is a kludge. The subformula number needs to be specified manually. Using mixed formula and subformula number needs some user intervention. However, it is possible to make these transparent by defining your own macros. \stoptext \setups[lastpage] [-- Attachment #3: Type: text/plain, Size: 139 bytes --] _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread

Changing line 303 of core-mat.tex \doif => \doifsomething and regenerating formats, does not change the output of the test file. I still get the incorrect page breaking. If I use the framedtext, then everything works fine. Something seems to be going wrong with \startbackground \stopbackground.
