What is "cutspace" and "bottomspace"?

What is "cutspace" and "bottomspace"?

[Sylvain Hubert]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 455 bytes --]

Dear List,

according to https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setuplayout ,
"cutspace" and "bottomspace" are the counterparts of "backspace" and
"topspace", and "If cutspace is set to 0, it is taken to be equal to the
backspace". But in fact, the following document stays the same no matter
what value is given to cutspace.

\setuplayout[cutspace=0.01cm]
\starttext x  \showframe \stoptext

Has anyone actually used these two parameters?

Best,
Sylvain

Hi Sylvain,

\setuplayout[width=fit, cutspace=0.01cm] does the trick.

Just in case it helps,

Pablo

Use "width=middle".

Many thanks for your reply, Wolfgang.

I found something weird here.

Compare the four options:

  %~ \setuplayout[width=middle, backspace=0.001mm]
  %~ \setuplayout[width=fit, backspace=0.001mm]
  %~ \setuplayout[width=middle, cutspace=0.001mm]
  %~ \setuplayout[width=fit, cutspace=0.001mm]
  \starttext \showframe \showsetups \stoptext

Each of the options gives a different result.

I thought the same might happen with topspace and bottomSpace. I’m
afraid this is also different:

  %~ \setuplayout[height=middle, topspace=0.001mm]
  %~ \setuplayout[height=fit, topspace=0.001mm]
  %~ \setuplayout[height=middle, bottomspace=0.001mm]
  %~ \setuplayout[height=fit, bottomspace=0.001mm]
  \starttext \showframe \showsetups \stoptext

I wonder whether there might be a bug here.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo
