Subject: Seems to be a bug with \definelayout
Date: Sat, 10 Dec 2022 09:23:16 +1300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <82F6E970-E07A-444D-B1C6-1FB6168667B3@icloud.com> (raw)

I’ve rewritten my last email. The context below produces the pdf in the screenshot below.

I expect the layout[short] to be applied to pages 2 and 3. It is. But there seem to be 2 bugs:

1 - Pages 4, 5 and 6 have the [short] layout. They should have the default layout.

2 - On pages 5 and 6, the text flows beyond the bottom of the frame. It should stop at the bottom of the frame.

Why do I think these are bugs? If I change the page number in \definelayout[3][short] to \definelayout[4][short], then it behaves differently and as I expect: only pages 2 and 4 have the [short] layout and the text flows within the frames.

Peter
