Blank line before placehead=empty

Blank line before placehead=empty

[Kate F]

Hi,

I have a document where I'm showing chapter titles in headers, rather
than on the page in the usual place in the body text area.

Using placehead=empty, what causes the blank line before the text? Is
there a way to suppress it?

I see there's no line when specifying placehead=no, but I want the
chapter heading to appear in my TOC, so that's why I'm using
placehead=empty. Or maybe there's another way to add something to the
TOC without showing anything in the document.

\setuphead[chapter][placehead=empty] % has an unwanted blank line
%\setuphead[chapter][placehead=no] % no blank line

\showgrid
\showstruts

\starttext
\startchapter[title={Something}]
cows cows hasselt
\stopchapter
\stoptext

Thank you,

-- 
Kate

Hi Kate,

as far as I know, placehead=no only affects to the heading, not to the TOC.

At least, this sample works:

    \setuphead[chapter][placehead=no]

    \showgrid
    \showstruts

    \starttext
    \completecontent
    \dorecurse{10}{\startchapter
        [title={My Chapter}] cows cows hasselt
        \stopchapter}
    \stoptext

Or have I misread your message or am I missing something?

I hope it helps,


Pablo
