How to get rid of space around itemize?

How to get rid of space around itemize?

[Mojca Miklavec]

Hello,

I'm trying to remove space before (and after) items in the following
example, but the only way I have managed to do that was by using
\vskip-\lineheight, which I'm not particulary proud of. Any ideas?

\setupwhitespace
	[big]
\setupitemize
	[joinedup]
\setuplayout
	[grid=yes]
\showgrid

\starttext

How to reduce the space here?
\startitemize
\item a
\item b
\stopitemize
And here?

\stoptext

Thanks a lot,
   Mojca

Wow! Interesting, thanks.

The following keywords are also still missing in xml:
  nofit
  fit
  margin
  columns
  text

Just one more question. Some time ago, I have a feeling that

\setupitemize
    [paragraph]

was indeed working, so that one could get

----------------
This is a list:
- first
- second
- third

And a new paragraph started after that.
-------

Now I have seen the
    \startitemize[joinedup,nowhite,after]
in sources which does that, but I still don't quite understand the
"paragraph" keyword.

To my understanding (as described in the manual), one should need both
"packed" and "joinedup" in order to achive what joinedup does now, and
I have some fain momeries that that has been the case. Now it seem to
me as if joinedup would be doing did packed was supposed to do. But
I'm confused about all those options anyway.

Thanks again,
    Mojca

OK .... I need some fresh air. "paragraph" indeed works (I knew I saw
it working), but only in the inner level (starting with the second
one) of itemize.

The first (outer) level indeed needs to be tuned with "nowhite" -
paragraph has only a partial effect of squeezing items, but does not
prevent whitespace. The desired effect only starts with inner items.

That has been completely confusing to me, but now I know how to use
properly it at least.

Thanks a lot,
    Mojca
