Creating two-column enumeration inside a frame

Creating two-column enumeration inside a frame

Hello,

I have a problem with creating two-column enumeration inside a frame.

If I don't use framed text command (commented here), everything goes well - in two columns. But once I uncomment those lines, the list appears pretty framed but not in columns. Since I have a lot of math formulas indeed, that's bothers me.

Thank you in advance.


\defineframedtext[assignment][rulethickness=2pt, corner=round, width=\textwidth]

\starttext

%\startassignment
\startitemize[packed, columns, two]
\item\math{(c + 4*d - 123) \over (1 - a/2)}
\item\math{(2*c + d - 52) \over (a/4 + 1)}
\item\math{(c/4 - d*62) \over (a*a + 1)}
\item\math{(-2*c - d + 53) \over (a/4 - 1) }
\item\math{(2*c - d/4) \over (a*a + 1) }
\stopitemize
%\stopassignment

\stoptext

This is because the framedtext creates its own box, that is confusing 
the startitemize command. you had better use the (more modern)
textbackgrounds instead. This bit of code is roughly equivalent
to the \defineframedtext:

   \definetextbackground[assignment]
     [rulethickness=2pt,
      location=paragraph,
      corner=round,
      width=\textwidth,
      background=none,
      topoffset=10pt,
      bottomoffset=10pt,
      leftoffset=10pt,
      rightoffset=10pt]


Best, Taco


Side note: Hans, it would be neat if textbackgrounds would understand
a singular offset= option that sets all four offsets in one sweep.
The definition above is overly verbose, IMO.
