(I have more problems with understanding how they work, but more about the rest later.) 1.) How do I get some space between "title" and "abc"? (I currently put the space there manually.) If I set distance=1em, weird things start happening. 2.) What exactly does "hang=1" do? I have no idea what it does there, but that was the only way to get the desired result, else everything gets indented. width=fit makes problems. With width=5cm everything is OK. \definedescription [ma] [headstyle=bold, style=italic, align=left, location=left, width=fit, distance=0pt, margin=0pt, hang=1, indenting=never, ] \starttext \input tufte \startma{title} abc. \input tufte \stopma \input tufte \stoptext Thanks a lot, Mojca ___________________________________________________________________________________ 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 : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
