I think you are right, I don't know if this is really desired, but I
don't think so. Escpecially one gets problems with "2" in the denominator.
\setupbodyfont [dejavu,12pt]
\starttext
$1/2$
$1\,/\,2$
\stoptext
The second hand-tuned example is obviously nicer.

it looks like a font issue to me .. i could hack a solution but prefer
not to do that (the less exceptions we have the better)

Not a font issue. ConTeXt is using the fraction slash (which is intended
to be used with vulgar fractions) not the regular slash.

the problem is that (last time i looked into this) all math fonts had it
differently so i (for the moment) setteld on it

I'd use the regular slash and consider fonts without a proper one
(depends on what you expect from the slash) to be broken. Incidentally,
unicode-math package provide an option to select which slash character
to use because of this.

Khaled

I can revert to 002F and (if needed make a patch in lfg files) but
you're right with respect to xits and 2215 (002F does not have a
descender which looks somewhat weird).

Hello,
Using the dejavu font, inline math fractions (e.g. $a/b$) look to me to
be spaced too tightly. Below are some minimal examples:
\setupbodyfont [dejavu,12pt]
\starttext
$a/b$
$1/2$
$π/3$
\stoptext
Is this indeed the desired spacing? What do others think?
Thanks.
Alan
