Hi everyone,

a quick follow-up to todays monthly meeting: A couple of months ago I ran into issues getting “flushbottom” typesetting right. See:

Today, some of these issues seem to have been fixed. But I still have the impression that vertical glue is still not working completely reliable. Below are a couple of examples.

While the second example seems to work ok with \setupalign[height] the last line differs if we have different font size, cf. e.g. page 3 and 4.

Best,

Denis
