Subject: Re: Grid typesetting and inline math
Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2011 13:29:51 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4DB6ACAF.9040909@tu-harburg.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4DAD5D06.9070704@tu-harburg.de>

After some trial and error, I'm using

\setuplayout[grid=yes]

\startlinecorrection
   Paragraph with inline math
   \gform{math stuff} % without the optional [-]
   and some more text that belongs to this parapgraph
\stoplinecorrection

and

\blank[-1*line]

where necessary. It is not really a convenient solution, but it works 
and I've got the impression that I can do what I want.

Again: Does anyone have a better solution or advice regarding grid usage?

Regards,

Christoph
