Dear list,
I have a sample with multiple layouts:
\showframe
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided, location=]
\setuplayout[margin=20mm, width=fit, topspace=45mm, bottomspace=25mm,
height=fit]
\definelayout[shorter][backspace=80mm, cutspace=20mm, topspace=110mm,
bottomspace=30mm]
\setuplayout[shorter]
\setuplayout[reset]
\definelayout[1][shorter]
\definelayout[2-last][reset]
\starttext
\dorecurse{20}{\input knuth\par}
\stoptext
I found two issues: the first lines on the second page have the margin
from previous page, and from the third page text doesn’t reach the page
bottom.
Am I missing something or have I found a bug?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

You can’t define layouts for page ranges (e.g. 2-last), only page numbers (e.g. 2,5, or -3), names (e.g. mylayout) and keywords (e.g. first, last, odd and even) are possible. 3. The width of a paragraph is fixed and tex doesn’t changed the width of the part which is moved to the next page (there are a fix tricks to work around this limitation but they work only when you have a text only document). 4. TeX has its limitations and you have to live with them, with LuaTeX there are ways to get rid of a few of them but it takes time to write the necessary code Wolfgang ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Many thanks for your reply, Wolfgang. I want to have a different top and bottom space only for the first page. From I what I understand, here is a new sample (that doesn’t work): \showframe \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided, location=] \setuplayout[margin=20mm, width=fit, topspace=45mm, bottomspace=25mm, height=fit] \definelayout[first][topspace=110mm, bottomspace=30mm] \starttext \dorecurse{20}{\input knuth\par} \stoptext I define a the standard layout, a layout for the first page, but I don’t know why the text doesn’t fill the full text area in pages other than the first. > 3.

What I mean is that in the following sample the text flow avoids the rectangle: \definelayer[avoidasfloat][x=0mm, y=0mm, hoffset=8mm, voffset=101mm, location={right,bottom}, state=start] \setlayer[avoidasfloat]{\startMPcode draw (0mm,0mm)--(55mm,0mm) ; draw (0mm,0mm)--(0mm,-86mm) ; draw (0mm,-86mm)--(55mm,-86mm) ; draw (55mm,-86mm)--(55mm,0mm) ; \stopMPcode } \setupbackgrounds[page][background={avoidasfloat}] \starttext \dorecurse{4}{\input knuth\par} \stoptext How could this be done?
