\startitemize[columns] and footnote

\startitemize[columns] and footnote

[Christoph Reller]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 361 bytes --]

Hi,

Consider the following MWE:

\starttext
Text \footnote{Bla}
\startitemize[columns]
\item Item
\stopitemize
\stoptext

In the rendered output, the footnote is drawn on top of the item (see
attached output.png). I am afraid this looks like a bug. Please consider
fixing this or tell me how to make footnotes render in the footnote area.

Regards,

Christoph

dunno if it's a bug,
but I usually do

\starttext
Text \footnote{Bla}
\startcolumns
\startitemize
\item \input knuth\relax
\item \input knuth\relax
\stopitemize
\stopcolumns
\stoptext

Thank you for your answer Luigi!

(And sorry for my slow response - spam filter was doing crazy things.)

Your solution indeed makes the footnote appear at the right place. But the
layout is not the same as with \startitemize[columns]. Consider:

Text \footnote{Bla}
\startcolumns
\startitemize
\dorecurse{8}{\item Item}
\stopitemize
\stopcolumns

This results in 5 "Item"s in the left column and 3 "Item"s in the right
column. On the other hand

Text \footnote{Bla}
\startitemize[columns]
\dorecurse{8}{\item Item}
\stopitemize

results in 4 "Item"s in both columns, which IMHO is more correct.

Don't you agree that \startitmize[columns] is buggy with respect to
footnotes? Or is the [columns] parameter not supported anymore?

Cheers,
Christoph
