Dear, final formating of Beginners' manual shows a bug of breaking columns (in setup index). Here is a minimal example: ----------------------- \showframe \starttext \startcolumns [n=2,tolerance=verytolerant,rule=~\vrule height\maxcolumnheight~] \switchtobodyfont[10pt] \framed[height=.3\textheight,width=broad]{.3textheight} \framed[height=.8\textheight,width=broad]{.8textheight} \framed[height=.1\textheight,width=broad]{.1textheight} % \framed[height=.1\textheight,width=broad]{.1textheight} % \framed[height=.1\textheight,width=broad]{.1textheight} \stopcolumns \stoptext ----------------------- If we comment two last lines everything goes well. Uncommenting them the biggest frame leaves in the first column and extents the layout. In the manual it results in some setup syntax is out of the page. Please, could you help Vit
