Re: [NTG-context] itemize in two columns and pagebreaks

Hi, The mechanisms of columns in itemize (which I think is the same as startcolumns) and in simplecolumns are indeed different, as Hans indicated once. The issue you encountered is indeed a bug as you point out: once (a few months ago) I had an analogous problem and Wolfgang S. suggested me to use simplecolumns to avoid the strange page breaks.

Hi Marcin,

I tested your file and noticed the issue you are reporting. In your case you can use \startsimplecolumns to get rid of the page break (however there is a small problem with the distance between the text and the items):

I knew that - but as you probably have noticed, the columns done by \startsimplecolumns and by \startitemize[columns] do not align correctly. So this is rather a workaround than a solution. (Well, thanks anyway!)

Currently I changed the file a bit and the problem disappeared, but still I'd like to know what's going on, since this tends to happen from time to time. (And this bug - because I guess it's a bug indeed - has been around for quite a few years: I noticed it for the first time something like 3 years ago...)

Best,
