* Multicolumn itemizations - again... @ 2008-11-05 20:09 Marcin Borkowski 2008-11-05 20:39 ` Marcin Borkowski 0 siblings, 1 reply; 9+ messages in thread From: Marcin Borkowski @ 2008-11-05 20:09 UTC (permalink / raw) To: Mailing list for ConTeXt users Hi, I have \setupitemize[2][a,paragraph,intro,columns,two][stopper=)] in the environment. In one place, however, I want to have a one-column itemization. What do I do? I thought that \startitemize[columns,one] would override the environment setting - but it didn't work. I tried to do something like this: \defineitemgroup[onecolumnitemize] \setuponecolumnitemize[2][a,paragraph,intro][stopper=)] but it didn't work - still the settings from \setupitemize[2][...] were in use. What's going on?

Before anyone asks me for an example, here it is: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/User:Mbork (the last part) Greets -- Marcin Borkowski (http://mbork.pl) Jest tak. Friedman ma weksel Schapira z żyrem Glasa i windykator jest Balenstein. On daje dwadzieścia pięć procent franko loko, towar jest u Lutmana, tylko ten towar jest zajęty przez Honigmana z powodu weksel Roitberga. Za ten weksel Roitberga można dostać gwarancję od jego teścia Rozenzweiga, tylko on jest przepisany na Rozenzweigową, a Rozenzweigowa jest chora.

I'll be waiting patiently for progress in luatex;). However, I tried \startitemize[1] and it didn't work (neither at my computer nor in online ConTeXt, with the example I have provided on my user page). Please do not think that I am angry at you, Hans, or anything like that; I really admire your (and not only your) work with ConTeXt. But I am a bit disappointed - and hope that itemizations will eventually work. And now I guess I'll have to work this around in some nasty way (most probably, I'll just do the only one-column itemization by hand). And you may be pretty sure that I will be a good beta-tester for the itemization stuff - as I already told, I use itemizations a lot, together with math, nesting itemizations, two-column ones etc. For the purpose of testing any new things in this area I'm leaving the examples on my user page, too. PS. Looking back at the steady progress of ConTeXt & luatex, I am pretty sure that this _will_ be solved in finite time anyway, so I can just \relax, wait and then test and provide feedback;).
