Like I said, I tried "margin" and it does NOT work. "Margin" has no effect on sub-lists. \startitemize[n] \item top level \startitemize[a,margin=5cm] \item sub item 1 \item sub item 2 \stopitemize \stopitemize "margin" does NOT affect the sublist at all. Oh I apologize for the rant. (At least it got your attention!) However, I was just stating the obvious: a plethora of other options (scribus, latex, etc) combined with poor docs and a lack of help, will just send new users packing. Eventually, you'll just be left with veteran users. It happens all the time with open source projects... I'm really trying to make this work for me though :) On Tuesday 11 August 2009 12:42:35 Wolfgang Schuster wrote:

Say I want to change the whitespace before an item in an enumeration.

Say I want to change the whitespace (represented by the dots) in a list? How can I do that? Tried various settings: changing margin, adding hskip, but nothing seems to do the trick. There doesn't seem to be anything in the docs...
\showframe
\starttext
\startitemize[a][stopper=,left=(,right=),margin=2cm] \item Item 1 \item Item 2 \stopitemize
\stoptext
How can I get a question answered on this list, BTW? It seems that no one either knows anything or are too busy for simple questions. FYI, devs, this language is going to die if you don't get more users....
You're really impolite for someone who wants help from others.
BTW: Your question was already questioned and answered in the past, it would have been easy for you to get the answer when you tried to search in the mail archive.
