Thank you, I found that myself (could have written). But the problem is that there’s space introduced if I use both environments, but not if I use only one. And I didn’t find how I can avoid that.

Hi,

If the issue is the size of the sidebar, I think if you add something like

\setupsidebar[topoffset=-5mm,bottomoffset=-5mm]

you can get rid of the spurious length of the sidebar. Indeed here 5mm should be replaced with what looks better with your setting of interlinespace.

Best regards: OK

Ahoi, I’m trying to mark examples in a book with indent (\startnarrower) and a rule in the margin (\startsidebar). Each of those works on its own as it should, but combined there’s an additional empty line before and after introduced that I can’t get rid of. Any hints?

\starttext

\input tufte

\startsidebar \startnarrower \input knuth \stopnarrower \stopsidebar

\input tufte

The reason for the extra line is that \startsidebar begins a new paragraph but \startnarrower end the lest paragraph which results in a single empty line.

Thank you, that works in my MWE, but not in my real life book. (I was sure I tested that approach already...) I’ll investigate further. Greetlings, Hraban --- https://www.fiee.net http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.dreiviertelhaus.de GPG Key ID 1C9B22FD

I finally found out what’s the problem:

\starttext

\input tufte

\startnarrower \startsidebar \startparagraph \input knuth \stopparagraph \stopsidebar \stopnarrower

\input tufte

\stoptext

As soon as I use \start/stopparagraph within narrower and sidebar, there’s additional space introduced. How can I avoid that? swap 'm
