In \setupfloats[] what exactly is the difference between textmethod and sidemethod? Compared with the gridsize, why does a 1 point window (method=2) help when typesetting on grids? Isn't 1% (method=1) much more in the most cases than 1 point? Wolfgang ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

I assume it corrects for the \lineskip glue. > Isn't 1% (method=1) much more in the most cases than 1 point? Yes it would be. Perhaps that one is because of \maxdepth, but I am only guessing. The fact that there are two methods could be simply a trial-and-error left over. Taco ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

While I was reading 'In the Details' to learn more about grid- typesetting, I could not comprehend the examples with grid={broad,...}. Then in section 1.8 I read that grid=line should be a shortcut for grid={broad,high,depth}. But these two variants gave me not the same result! Try \setuplayout[grid=yes] \definehead[Demo][section] \setuphead[Demo][style=\bfb, before=\blank, after=\blank, grid={broad,high,depth}] %\setuphead[Demo][style=\bfb,before=\blank,after=\blank,grid=line] \showgrid \starttext \Demo{Agathe} Bla blubber \stoptext Hmm!

Section 1.8 deals \exclusively with \externalfigure. Apparently the grid option for sectioning commands is handled differently. Taco ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
