Depends on the situation, for left aligned numbers it didn't matter because you can't see where the space comes from (1) but for right aligned numbers you need a postive value for distance (2).
(1) Left aligned number:
\starttext \bTABLE[frame=off] \bTR\bTD[width=1cm] 1 \eTD\bTD header \eTD\eTR \eTABLE \bTABLE[frame=off,distance=5mm] \bTR\bTD[width=5mm] 1 \eTD\bTD header \eTD\eTR \eTABLE \stoptext
(2) Right aligned number:
\starttext \bTABLE[frame=off] \bTR\bTD[width=1cm,align=flushright] 1 \eTD\bTD header \eTD\eTR \eTABLE \bTABLE[frame=off,distance=5mm] \bTR\bTD[width=5mm,align=flushright] 1 \eTD\bTD header \eTD\eTR \eTABLE \stoptext
I'm impressed... So you really have an MBA in Klingon! :O)

Ok I see. Now, in \placecontent or \setuplist, which parameter allows to influence where long lines are cut off in two (or more) ?
Like...
(number) This long long chapter title (pagenumber)
vs.
(number) This long long chapter title (pagenumber)
Using the brute force tactic I tried setting width and textwith which didn't work. It could be textcommand. If so what does \command#1 mean ( see main manual pg 150 ) ?
The effect for maxwidth (3cm in my example) is this:
\starttext \limitatetext {This long long chapter title} {3cm} {\unknown} \stoptext

I just tried with style={\switchtobodyfont[small]\setuplinewidth[(x)pt]\setupinterlinespace[line=2.4ex]} and several values for (x) in \startinteractionmenu[myMenu] \placecontent[ criterium=all, alternative=b, % style={\switchtobodyfont[small]\setupinterlinespace[line=2.4ex]}, style={\switchtobodyfont[small]\setuplinewidth[150pt]\setupinterlinespace[line=2.4ex]}, interaction=all, before={\blank[small]\startnarrower[left,right]}, after={\stopnarrower\blank[medium]}] \stopinteractionmenu but that generates a compile error. Grrr... Best, Alan
