interlinespace and accented capital

interlinespace and accented capital

[Peter van Kranenburg]

Hi list,

I have an accented E (É) somewhere in my text. The height of this 
character changes the interlinespace, probably to avoid collision of the 
accent and the line above it. Unfortunately it is visually very 
disturbing to have a larger interlinespace for one single line on the 
page. I couldn't find a way to make ConTeXt ignore this height and space 
the lines evenly.

I would be very glad if someone could point me to a solution for this.

\smash[h]{É}

should work (see supp-box.tex for details).

Indeed. Thanks for the quick reply!

I see. Very interesting... there is a lot more in ConTeXt than I'm aware 
of. :) I'm often solving issues like this with my own dirty low level 
TeX hacks, but this is much better.
