Re: [NTG-context] index with more than one column?

26 Aug 2018

      Try it without the columns environment in your document, i.e.

\startchapter[title=\mytitle{Register}]
\placeregister[index]
\stopchapter

Could the following setup I used be the culprit?
\setupregister[index][pagestyle=slanted,textstyle=small,alternative=A]

The real question is why do you get an index without two columns.
\starttext
\dorecurse{26}{\convertnumber{a}{#1}\expanded{\index{\convertnumber{a}{#1}}}}
\placeregister[index]%[n=3]
\stoptext

How do I produce an index with more than one column?
This produces one column only:
\startchapter[title=\mytitle{Register}]
\startcolumns[n=2]
\placeregister[index]
\stopcolumns
Nor did \placeregister[index][n=2] or \placeindex[n=2], with or 
without the columns envirenment, produce the result wanted.
The \startsimplecolumns[n=2] environment did produce two columns, 
but then played havoc with the textheight.
