Dear list,
according to the wiki and the ConTeXt manual, the ConTeXt equivalent for the LaTeX \flushbottom command is \setupalign[line]. However in my tests this setting doesn't have the desired effect. For example:
\setuplayout[height=720pt] \setuphead[subject][before={\vskip4pt plus 1fil},after={\blank[small]}] \setupalign[line] \showgrid
\starttext \dorecurse{3}{\input knuth}
\subject{My Subject}
\dorecurse{8}{\input knuth} \stoptext
Here at the first page there is a small gap between the last line and the page border, although the glue above the heading can safely be expanded to make the page filled. However I do get the desired result if I replace \setupalign [line] with a low-level command (\alignbottom).
So what is the correct way to get pages bottom-aligned in MKIV?
Use \setupalign[height]. Wolfgang
