\widowpenalty=10000 and still a widow line

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 395 bytes --]

In my environment file, I have

\clubpenalty=10000
\widowpenalty=10000

\setuptolerance[vertical,verystrict]
\setuptolerance[horizontal,tolerant]

and yet on occasion I still get widow lines.Does any one have suggestions
about strategies to remedy this either in general or on a case by case
basis? (I am not sure of how to generate an example of the problem or if
that would even help.)

1. Do the widow lines only appear in certain cases, e.g. after a heading.

2. Use the context way to change the penalties:

\startsetups [mypenalties]

    \setdefaultpenalties

    \setpenalties\widowpenalties{3}{10000} % 3 == number of lines, 10000 == penalty between these 3 lines
    \setpenalties\clubpenalties {3}{10000}

\stopsetups

\setuplayout[setups=mypenalties]

\starttext
…
\stoptext

Many thanks, Wolfgang. The widows actually appear at the close of “normal”
paragraphs. Around the headers, all seem to be as it should. The “ConTeXT”
solution solves the problem nicely! (I have et the number of lines to 2.)

All best, Alan
