WG: Adjust Grid to last line textheight

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 602 bytes --]

Hi,

I have to use grid typesetting and the grid has to be aligned to the last line of textheight. I have to replicate a layout made with Indesign where there seems to be a bit of additional spacing before the first line, whereas in ConTeXt that happens to be after the last line of the page (see attachment).

Is that possible?

I have already found the various grid snapping methods, but they seem to change how content is placed on the grid, not the placement of the grid itself.

=======
\setuplayout[grid=yes]
\showgrid
\starttext

\input knuth

\stoptext
=======

Best,
Denis

I've tried adjusting interlinespacing, but it seems to make no difference :

==========================
\setupinterlinespace[
                height=.72,
                depth=.28,
                top=2,
                %top=0,
                %top=5,
                %top=1,
                bottom=0,
                %bottom=0.4,
                %bottom=0,
                %bottom=1,
                %bottom=5,
                line=2.8ex,
                ]

\setuplayout[grid=yes]
\showgrid
\starttext

\dorecurse{5}{\input knuth\par}

\stoptext
==========================

Even extreme values for top and bottom (e.g. 0 or 10) seem to make no difference at all.
What am I missing? Is that even the right place to make that adjustment ?
