Hi Stephan, Thanks for your help. Seemingly I missed that in my search on the list. \starttext \clubpenalty=10000 \widowpenalty=10000 \brokenpenalty=10000 [...] seems to do the job. Reards, Jan On 09.08.2012 14:25, Stefan Müller wrote:
Hi,
did you see [1]? You have to do something like
\starttext \clubpenalty=10000 \widowpenalty=10000
My text that should not contain any widow or orphan lines. \stoptext
If that does not work for you, please provide a minimal example.
HTH, Stefan

Dear List,
I ran into trouble with the widow/orphan-control in context. I searched the mailinglist, and saw that there were some other threads on the topic bevore, but as far as I am concerned what was suggested there did not work for me when I tried it.
I run context iv using the version which comes with TexLive 2011.
First trail was to include \widowpenalty=9000 and \clubpenalty=9000 at the start of the document, before \starttext (cause I do my setups, and definitions there) As this did not work I tried to put them after \starttext. As well I lowered \brokenpenalty. But both approaches, which were suggested in previous Posts on the ntg-context list failed to show an effect in my case.
Is there anything I could do to prevent the widow lines?
PS.: As I may be doing any noobish errors, here an overview of the documents structure and the placement of the penalty-commands _________________________________
