I am running into two issues with my mkii-to-mkiv conversion project
- The \chapter command in mkiv uses more whitespace between the header and the first paragraph. How can I influence this?
The different space before the \chapter is caused by the “fixed” keyword for \blank
which produce different result with MkII and MkIV and the MkIV behaviour need
to be corrected.
The space after \chapter comes from your \writetolist entry and you can correct
this with the \GotoPar command at the end of the entry as shown below.
%%%% begin example
\showgrid
\setuphead[chapter][before={\blank[force,2*line]}]
\starttext
\chapter{Knuth}
\writetolist[chapter]{}{}\GotoPar
\input knuth
\stoptext
%%%% end example
Thanks. I tried this
% Every chapter starts with a quote on the LHS page:
\setuphead
[chapter]
[page=,
before={\setups[chapter:before]},
after={\setups[chapter:after]}]
\startsetups chapter:before
\page[left]
\noheaderandfooterlines
\startalignment[left,nothyphenated]
\startnarrower[4*left]
\em \getbuffer[chapter:quote]
\stopnarrower
\stopalignment
\resetsetups[quote:text]
\page[right]
\noheaderandfooterlines
\blank[force,2*big]
\stopsetups
\startsetups chapter:after
\blank[3*big]
\stopsetups
\definelist[chaptertext]
\setuplist[chaptertext][margin=1.3em,pagecommand=\gobbleoneargument]
\define[1]\ChapterAbstract{\writetolist[chaptertext]{}{\start\itx#1\stop}\GotoPar}
(Adding the \GotoPar at the end) but it did not had any effect. At one place (no chapter but an unnumbered title, it doesn’t work as well. Here I now have:
\title[h:grief1]{Intermezzo:\\
A short story about grief}
\writetolist[chapter]{}{Intermezzo: A Short Story about Grief}\GotoPar
\ChapterAbstract{A small fragment of a movie script that beautifully
illustrates the gap between the rational and the real.}
I changed it to
\title[h:grief1]{Intermezzo:\\
A short story about grief}
\writetolist[chapter]{}{Intermezzo: A Short Story about Grief}\GotoPar
\ChapterAbstract{A small fragment of a movie script that beautifully
illustrates the gap between the rational and the real.}\GotoPar
And that works. So I changed it in another chapter to
\chapter[h:loosely]{Prologue:
\\Loosely Coupled Spaghetti}
\ChapterAbstract{Starting with an example of how things can go wrong in a
current Business-IT landscape, we notice that these kinds of problems have
existed almost for as long as IT has existed, and that no proposed `silver
bullet' has ever solved them. The goal of the book is introduced.}\GotoPar
\placeinitial S{\kap{\bf uppose we}} have a system for the approval of loans. The
business logic has been put into a Business Rule Engine (BRE)
system\footnote{If you are not technical and terms like `application server',
But there it doesn’t. Apparently, I am still missing something.
