I was trying to implement the solution provided by this thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg51152.html and it works very well. However, finding a problem related to this implementation, I found that the output of the new \start ... \stop versions of the title, section, chapter, subject, etc. commands is different from the old \title, \chapter, \subject, etc. As you can see in the following MWE, the new implementation indents the first paragraph of the given section, by some amount (even different from the default for paragraphs). Is this a bug or a new feature that I don't understand? mtx-context | current version: 2013.06.10 22:51 %******** START MWE **********% \setuplayout[grid=yes] \setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided,location={footer,center}] \showgrid \setupindenting[yes,big,next] \usemodule[lettrine] \define[2]\SectionCommand {\inoutermargin{#2}} \setuphead [title,subject] [page=no, alternative=text, command=\SectionCommand, distance=0pt, style={\tf\sc}, before={\blank[line]}] \starttext \title{Knuth} With title: \input knuth\par \starttitle[title={Tufte}] With starttitle: \input tufte\par \stoptitle \subject{Knuth} With subject: \input knuth\par \startsubject[title={Tufte}] With startsubject: \input tufte\par \stopsubject \stoptext %******** STOP MWE ************%
