Hi there,
I encountered some problems with the built in units command in MKIV. I provide a minimal example which should demonstrate my problems. Maybe I am doing something wrong...
Cheers,
Andreas
%%%%%MINIMAL EXAMPLE%%%%%
\setupbodyfont[pagella]
\starttext
% this is just my default setting - if I comment the next line I get the same behaviour
\setupunits[method=3,order=reverse,separator=small]
\unit{11,1e-1 micro mol per second} \par %no effect if I change the separator (holds also for cdot)
$\unit{11,1e-1 micro mol per second}$ \par %wrong spacing
\unit{11,1e-1 per second} \par % one over is not working (no unit displayed)
\unit{11,1e-1 / second} \par % one over not working (no unit displayed)
\stoptext
%%%%%MINIMAL EXAMPLE%%%%%

Clearly, I could do something like $\alpha = $ \unit{1,2 meter} but I think this is likely to result in problems with the look of the result in case this is close to a line break.

Is there going to be a solution considering the spacing problems with the use of units (native mkiv command) in near future (within 2-3 weeks)? If there is none and I am not doing something wrong, I'll add a local work around every time I use units. As this is much work, I'd appreciate if someone told me if this is something that might be fixed soon. If not I'm good - I just need to know. Explanation of my problem: Maybe I am doing something wrong, but in the resulting document the spacing is bigger in math mode then in the text mode in case I use \units{...}. In particular, the distance for the decimal separator is as if I would type $1,2$ instead of $1{,}2$ (example: $\units{1,2}$). Thanks.

The problem with the decimal separator is solved. You made my day with just 4 commands! Just that you know: I still observe a tiny difference in the blank space between numbers and times symbol (\times) when comparing math mode to standard text mode (minimal example below). AFAIK this does not make a difference. If I find the time i might just put every unit stuff into math mode (for consistency reasons). So my document is ready for being published (in this respect). It just still lacks content :) Happy holidays to all of you.
