Think of fill as a "spring" that pushes both sides. 2fill is a spring that pushes twice as hard. With a \vskip 1ex plus 2fill at top and \vskip 1ex plus 3fill at bottom, 2/5 th of the total blank space is on the top, and 3/5 th is at the bottom. With inbetween=\vfill, and two items, the equation changes to 2/6th of the empty space on top 1/6th of the empty space inbetween the two items 3/6th of the empty at the bottom Aditya ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
