[NTG-context] Re: Vertical alignment and columns

15 Jul 2025

      Hi Mikael,

Thanks a lot for your reply! Yes, using  \startboxedcolumns ...
\stopboxedcolums gives (as far as I can see) a consistent alignment.

Cheers,
Florent

Hi,
Just guessing: Does \startboxedcolumns ... \stopboxedcolumns work?

Hi!
I've encountered a (to me) unexpected behaviour with the columns
environment: the vertical alignment looks slightly different depending on
whether the text fits on a single column or not. The following example
demonstrates this behaviour (ConTeXt LMTX version 2025.07.08 17:48 on a
64-bits Linux machine): the first line looks slightly higher than the
second one.
\starttext
  \startframed[offset=0pt]
    \startcolumns
      This is a test
    \stopcolumns
  \stopframed
  \blank[medium]
  \startframed[offset=0pt]
    \startcolumns
      This is a slightly longer test using two columns
    \stopcolumns
  \stopframed
\stoptext
If this is intended, is there a way to get the same vertical alignment
independently of whether the text fits on one or two columns?
Cheers,
Florent
