Grid and footnotes [repost]

Grid and footnotes [repost]

[Oliver Buerschaper]

Hi all,

I'd like to bring this issue up again because I didn't get any  
replies about two weeks ago (also I'm getting closer to handing  
things in to the printhouse) ... so comments, ideas, suggestions,  
solutions etc. very welcome ;-)



Consider the following:

---

\setuplayout
	[lines=41,
	 grid=no]

\starttext

%\showframe[text]
\showgrid

\dorecurse{2}{\input tufte\footnote{This is some text} \par}

\section{Test}

\dorecurse{2}{\input tufte\footnote{This is some text} \par}

\stoptext

---

As long as the grid is turned off, the footnote block perfectly
aligns with the bodytext frame. However, turn the grid on and the
footnote block suddenly jumps about a line downwards. What's going on
here?

Best wishes,
Oliver

in core-one: change the getnoflines call into

   \ifbottomnotes
     \ifgridsnapping
\ifcase\layoutlines % todo: make macro of this
    \getrawnoflines\textheight
\else
    \noflines\layoutlines
\fi
%        \getnoflines\textheight

and remake the format 

usual rounding errors mess

I'm afraid I can't find no file core-one.tex on my machine ... it  
seems that there's also none at ConTeXt live :-( What to do?

Hi Oliver,

Following Willi's hint I patched the right file and ... it works like  
a charm! Thanks so much! Now there's just the linespacing thing left ;-)
