Thanks for that, Wolfgang. I can only hope that, as the culprit is known, it can be apprehended!
Talal, here is a barbarous workaround using \thinrule: ====================== \setuppapersize[A6] \starttext \showframe \setupthinrules[color=white] \setupwhitespace[big] \section{Incorrect} \startlinenumbering \startalignment[r2l] Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Pellentesque molestie dictum quam non congue. Integer ut dolor vel mi vestibulum molestie vel et nulla.\thinrule Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Pellentesque molestie dictum quam non congue. Integer ut dolor vel mi vestibulum molestie vel et nulla. \stopalignment \stoplinenumbering \section{Correct} \startalignment[r2l] Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Pellentesque molestie dictum quam non congue. Integer ut dolor vel mi vestibulum molestie vel et nulla. \stopalignment \stoptext ====================== This effectively hides the problem. Unfortunately it is apparently not straightforward to invoke the \thinrule automatically at the end of every paragraph [see the other thread with Alan].
