Hi again. I use columnsets and wanted to setup my section titles to have one blank line before and none after them. If I use before={\blank[line]}, I sometimes don’t get that blank line. If I use \blank in my section command, I get it always, but also if the section starts on top of a column. How can I reliably get one blank line before a section title, but not on the top of a column? That’s the original problem. The MWE also shows: – There’s irregular space at the top of columns, esp. on the first page. – Sometimes the multi-line section title is moved into the previous paragraph. These issues get fixed with grid=yes. The original problem is also fixed in the MWE if I enable grid mode, there are just sometimes two blank lines instead of one. In my actual project I get one or zero lines. Couldn’t reproduce that in a MWE. \usemodule[visual] \setuppapersize[A5] \showframe[text] \definecolor[fakerulecolor][gray] %\setuplayout[grid=yes] %\showgrid \define[2]\MySection{\vbox{% \definecolor[fakerulecolor][blue] %\blank[line,max]% {\strut #2}\par }} \setuphead[section][ command=\MySection, before={\blank[line]}, %before=, after=, style=\tf, ] \definecolumnset[Two][n=2] \starttext % \startcolumnset[Two] \dorecurse{10}{ \section{\fakewords{3}{15}} \fakewords{10}{50}\par \fakewords{10}{50}\par \fakewords{10}{50}\par } \stopcolumnset \stoptext
