(long) footnotes in column sets messed up

(long) footnotes in column sets messed up

[Stefan Müller]

Hi folks,

please consider the following example.

\starttext
\startcolumnset[n=2]
\dorecurse{4}{\input knuth\footnote{Some footnote which is not wrapped 
correctly and has a bad number}}
\stoptext

The footnotes are very messed-up (overlapping, numbers all in left 
column).  Is there a better way to place such footnotes in column sets? 
  Am I doing something wrong?  I'm using 20111028 22:32 MKIV.

Thank you very much in advance!
Stefan

Hi again,

I tried MkIV 20111112 12:34 now and added 
"\setupfootnotes[location=columns]", trying also all other values listed 
in [1], at the beginning of my example below.  They don't seem to do 
something that looks as if it is intended behaviour.

The only thing I can do by now is using \setupfootnotes[location=text] 
together with \placefootnotes after \stopcolumnset, but I don't like 
that very much in my current document.

I also note that, whichever method I use to place the footnotes, the 
number always ends up in the first column, never in the second (even 
with \placefootnotes between \start...\stopcolumnset).

I hope someone can give me some insight here.  Thanks in advance and 
best regards,
Stefan
