Subject: keeping headings with following texts
Date: Sat, 13 Jul 2013 14:07:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <51E14307.6000602@web.de> (raw)

Dear list,

writing an article on ConTeXt, I have found what I think is a surprising
feature (at least, a surprising default): headings don’t always keep
with next paragraph, so they can end up in being widowed (heading + page
break + first paragraph on next page).

Sorry, but I’m afraid that I don’t understand this default. I have never
seen a printed book that displays this behavior (unless the heading was
alone on its page).

Don‘t get me wrong, I‘m more than happy with ConTeXt. But would anyone
be so kind to explain the reason of the described default? (I’m trying
to understand, so I can explain to others.)

I have found on the list
(http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2007/023357.html) the way to
avoid this:

    \setuphead[section][before={\page[bigpreference]}]

How can I know which is the exact default value in any given command? (I
need to know the before values for headings, at least.)

Is there a way to enable the “keep with next” option for all headings?

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo
