Hi Mikael,
Thanks for your reply -- I was able to get great results after using the
\startbuffer ... \stopbuffer approach.
I'm still a bit of a beginner with ConText so I wasn't clear on what the
meaning of the $ symbols in your reply?
The reason I have been using the underbraces is for explaining how
botanical naming conventions work.
In certain fields of botany/horticulture, plant types follow certain rules
for naming. Here is a fictitious name
as an example:
Loremphylla mikaelii forma alba 'Aditya'
Genus = Loremphylla
Species = mikaelii
botanical form = forma
Cultivar Epithet = 'Aditya'
The problem I was running into was the labels might have more words than
can be contained within the space allotted
on one line (i.e., Cultivar Epithet would not fit in the space on the same
line, and hence my question on how to force a \crlf
between those two words).
Best,
Dean

Following on from Aditya's solution to my previous question, I have run
into a separate issue and would appreciate any assistance.
Sometimes text under the underbrace can become quite long, and should be
split into two (or more) lines. In the example below, "firstline" should be the top line of the underbrace label, and "secondline" should be on the lower line of the underbrace label, but as it stands, both are printed on the same line.
\underbrace[mindepth=0.5cm]{\tf x+y+z}_{\vrule width 0pt height
0.5cm\relax\text{firstline secondline}}
I have tried using \\ and \crlf, but to no avail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
Hans will add some annotation mechanism (already on my computer to test a bit). In your case you can use the first example here:
\startbuffer \unframed [align=middle,toffset=0.5cm] {firstline\crlf secondline} \stopbuffer
$ \underbrace [mindepth=0.5cm] {\tf x + y + z} _ {\mtext{\getbuffer}}
\quad
\mathannotation [bottom={\getbuffer}] {\underbrace [mindepth=0.5cm] {\tf x + y + z} } $
Since I am the curious type, I wonder a bit what is the use case here? Do you mind explaining and providing the complete example? (The reason I ask is that there might be better ways to do what you are doing.)
