Hi I am fairly new to Context and as a way to learn I am working on a magazine layout for a an organisation to which I belong. I was getting along well ( with information I got from the web site and the mail lists). I am having a problem with \starcolumsetspan. Until a week or two ago it appeared to be working but I have just installed the minimals on a new machine and it no longer works with the latest version. I found this example on the mailing list which give the same results: \definecolumnset[columntest][n=2,balance=yes] \definecolumnsetspan[wide][n=2] \starttext \startcolumnset[columntest] \startcolumnsetspan[wide] \dorecurse{3}{\input knuth\par} \stopcolumnsetspan \dorecurse{10}{\input knuth\par} \stopcolumnset \stoptext I'm just wondering if there is anything I might need to do to the above to get it to work? Any help would be greatly appreciated but I am in no hurry for this and could wait until it gets fixed in the normal round of releases. Cheers Gordon
