Hi all,
I am currently preparing a setup for my Master's thesis. The
regulations want me to typeset the main text with 1.5 line
spacing, quotations and notes with single line spacing. This is
quite cumbersome, as I would have loved to use a grid layout.
But in the worst case, a quotation could end at a place where I
would need to insert a whitespace of 1.5 grid lines to snap
back onto grid again.
Does anyone know of a neat way to handle this? (It would be
easiest, I guess, to forget about the grid...)
Cheers,
Marco

I don't see any problems here. Just set line spacing with:
\setupinterlinespace[1.5]
(whatever) and grids should still work. As far as I know grid
typesetting just removes the stretch in the page.
for quotations do something like:
\setupquotation
[before={\start\setupinterlinespace[1]},
after=\stop]

Hmm, that does not affect the grid at all. Only if I use
\setupinterlinespace[line=4.29ex]
or something like that.

But what I want to do with the grid is to accomplish that when
you look "through" the paper from one side of the ark, the
lines on the other side vertically align with the lines of this
side. If you use \showgrid, grids seem to do just that.

Doesn't work for me, sorry. Nothing happens with regard to the
interline spacing.

By default context does not add much stretch to whitespace, so i suggest
that in your case you just turn off the grid and do the following:
\setupwhitespace[line]
\setupblank[line]
(or halfline); then as berend suggests, you can tune the quotations; i
suggest that you add \endgraf before \stop

that's because you end the paragraph outside the group
\start par bound settings .... \endgraf\stop
so you need after=\endgraf\stop
tex applies the settings at the end of a par (when breaking into lines);
the same for left and right skips and indentation an dso
