Thanks Hans,

one could also \blank[medium] after the first (columns) variant but then
again the items seem not to sit on the grid which you can check with
\showgrid:

\showgrid

\startitemize[packed, joinedup, columns, two]
  \startitem
    top left item
  \stopitem
  \startitem
    bottom left item
  \stopitem
  \startitem
    top right item
  \stopitem
  \startitem
    bottom right item
  \stopitem
\stopitemize
\blank[medium]
Notice the size of the blank space?

\startitemize[packed, joinedup, horizontal, two]
  \startitem
    top left item
  \stopitem
  \startitem
    top right item
  \stopitem
  \startitem
    bottom left item
  \stopitem
  \startitem
    bottom right item
  \stopitem
\stopitemize
Notice the size of the blank space?

\stoptext

I'm just trying to make sure that you are aware of that

Cheers, Sebastian
