Hi,<br><br><br>I&#39;m experiencing an issue where, when the width of a block of text is small, the occasional word sticks out from the otherwise flush right.  I&#39;ve previously seen an example of this in an image on the contextgarden wiki, but now can&#39;t find it.  To reproduce what I mean, compile this with Mark IV:<br>
<br>\mainlanguage[en]<br>\usetypescript[palatino]<br>\setupbodyfont[palatino,11pt]<br><br>\setuppapersize[A4][A4]<br> <br>\setuphead[title][header=empty]<br><br>\starttext<br>\title{Personal statement}<br><br>\startcolumns[n=2]<br>
This heavily-hyphenated<br>jauntily-formatted<br>flush-left<br>flush-right<br>justified-text<br>paragraph set in<br>a two-column layout and<br>subtly-quirky-but-never-offensive<br>Palatino shouldn&#39;t produce<br>out-of-flush<br>
sticking-out-like-a-sore-thumb<br>words from the<br>flush-right.<br>\stopcolumns<br>\stoptext<br><br><br>In this example, the string &#39;sticking-out-like-a-sore-thumb&#39; sticks out to approx 3mm from the right edge of the paper.  In this situation, I would much prefer that that string is hyphenated, using one of the hyphens already in the string.<br>
<br>Based on one other test (in which my text was far less hyphenated than the above), it seems that the hyphenation algorithm refuses to hyphenate strings of words that are already hyphenated.  Is this true?  If so, is it deliberate?  And how do I turn it off?  (And do other people agree with me that it&#39;s awfully ugly?)<br>
