Re: [NTG-context] itemize in two columns and pagebreaks

      Hi Marcin,

I tested your file and noticed the issue you are reporting. In your case you can use \startsimplecolumns to get rid of the page break (however there is a small problem with the distance between the text and the items): 

\startchapter[title={Nim-suma liczb całkowitych nieujemnych}]

\startexercises
  \startitem
    Przelicz następujące liczby w~zapisie dwójkowym na system
    dziesiątkowy:

    \startsimplecolumns
    \startitemize[r][left=(,right=),stopper={}]
      \startitem
        \math{(101)_2}
      \stopitem
      \startitem
        \math{(101011)_2}
      \stopitem
    \stopitemize
    \stopsimplecolumns
  \stopitem
  \startitem
    Przelicz następujące liczby na system dwójkowy:

    \startsimplecolumns
    \startitemize[r][left=(,right=),stopper={}]
      \startitem
        \math{10}
      \stopitem
      \startitem
        \math{77}
      \stopitem
    \stopitemize
    \stopsimplecolumns
  \stopitem
\stopexercises
\stopchapter

Best regards: OK

Hello,
I encountered a weird problem with
\startitemize[columns]
Namely, sometimes ConTeXt (MkIV) puts a pagebreak before the
itemization.  I tried to distill the problem to a minimal example,
until now without success, but I'll post a ME if I'm able to reproduce
a problem in a small file.
OK, so I didn't succeed in isolating this problem.  I attach the
complete file (it's in Polish, sorry;)).  The problem appears at page 3
in the resulting pdf (line 141 of the source file).
...
Anybody encountered this, too?  Are there any solutions/workarounds
known?
I naively tried putting \page[no] in various places around the
problematic line, but to no avail.  Also, while trying to isolate the
problem, for instance by removing things before the itemization, it
turned out that it's difficult to reproduce it: often, everything is
fine (at the beginning of the page as well as near the end).
Any ideas?
