Dear All,

The following code generates a title and some fake text:

\setuppagenumbering[location=right]

\usemodule[visual]

\usebtxdataset[bibliography.bib] \starttext \title{test} \fakewords{1000}{1200}

\stoptext

The following code does the same, but wraps the fakewords in a bodymatter environment:

\setuppagenumbering[location=right]

\usemodule[visual]

\usebtxdataset[bibliography.bib] \starttext \title{test} \startbodymatter \fakewords{1000}{1200} \stopbodymatter

\stoptext

In the first case, the title remains on the same page as the fake text. In the second case, a new page is forced after the title. Why does this occur? \startbodymatter starts a sectionblock (the “bodypart” block, to be exact) and by default these blocks all switch to a ‘right’ page. Add this in your preamble to get rid of the page switch:

\setupsectionblock[bodypart][page=no]

The better solution in my opinion is to put the title *in* the sectionblock. Wolfgang
