The cat was too long (mkiv)

The cat was too long (mkiv)

[Peter Rolf]

hi,

'minimal' example for clipping bug in mkiv:

% engine=luatex
\starttext

\setbox\scratchbox\hbox{The cat was too long to fit in this small sentence.}
\framed[offset=overlay]{\clip[width=110pt,height=20pt]{\box\scratchbox}}

\stoptext


final text should be "The cat was too long". mkii does it right, mkiv 
gives "The cat wa". mkiv made the cat fit somehow, but it's not the way 
i want it :)


best wishes, peter

mh, i should have made a test run at 'context live' first. works there 
too. sorry for the noise.
i'm currently back to luatex 0.25.3, context is from 13.05.2008.
