Setting vertical spacing of lines inside a \framed[align=]

I have been experimenting with \startpacked..\stoppacked but it doesn’t seem to work. What is the preferred way of getting lines in a normal paragraph (actually, we’re talking about a \framed with align, so a full paragraph in a TeX \vbox) (In addition, I try to find this kind of information first, in the manuals and in ConTeXtgarden, but I am failing. E.g. I look it up in the manual, do not really find it, then look it up in ConTeXt garden but it isn’t really documentend, then click ‘look in source’ and th elink doesn’t work. So, I have to bother people on the list for a basic question like this. I must be doing something wrong and looking in the wrong place) Gerben Wierda Chess and the Art of Enterprise Architecture https://ea.rna.nl/the-book/ Mastering ArchiMate https://ea.rna.nl/the-book-edition-iii/ Architecture for Real Enterprises https://www.infoworld.com/blog/architecture-for-real-enterprises/ at InfoWorld On Slippery Ice https://eapj.org/on-slippery-ice/ at EAPJ

Do you want to have a linebreak at the end of the frame \starttext \startframed \samplefile{knuth} \stopframed \startframed[width=max,align=normal] \samplefile{knuth} \stopframed \stoptext or do you want to change to change the spacing \starttext \startframedtext[width=max,style={\setupinterlinespace[medium]}] \samplefile{knuth} \stopframedtext \startframedtext[width=max,style={\setupwhitespace[medium]}] \samplefile{knuth} \stopframedtext \stoptext Wolfgang

I want the lines in this frame packed more closely together: \starttext \framed[align=flushright,frame=on,offset=none,width=106.400bp]{\setupinterlinespace[0.9]\colored[r=0.000, g=0.000, b=0.000]{\switchtobodyfont[11.0pt] \rm [My]\\Application\\(Component)}} \stoptext I tried a bit of fiddling, and the following changes the height of the first line only: \starttext \framed[align=flushright,frame=on,offset=none,width=106.400bp]{\colored[r=0.000, g=0.000, b=0.000]{\switchtobodyfont[11.0pt] \setupinterlinespace[20pt] \rm [My]\\Application\\(Component)}} \stoptext and if I change the value to 0.6, only the first line break gets packed somewhat. But I can’t get the entire paragraph inside the frame packed. I played around with the placing of setupinterlinespace in that snippet above, but nothing really works so far. I left the \colored etc in, because I also need to do all of those, so I need a solution that works in the above setting.

Do you want to have a linebreak at the end of the frame

\starttext

\startframed \samplefile{knuth} \stopframed

\startframed[width=max,align=normal] \samplefile{knuth} \stopframed

\stoptext

or do you want to change to change the spacing

\starttext

\startframedtext[width=max,style={\setupinterlinespace[medium]}] \samplefile{knuth} \stopframedtext

\startframedtext[width=max,style={\setupwhitespace[medium]}] \samplefile{knuth} \stopframedtext

\stoptext

At the end of your frame, you need an explicit \par to make the change of linespacing work: \framed[align=flushright,frame=on,offset=none,width=106.400bp]{\colored[r=0.000, g=0.000, b=0.000]{\switchtobodyfont[11.0pt] \setupinterlinespace[14pt] \rm [My]\\Application\\(Component)\par }} https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg45676.html Thomas

Not possible in my case, unless I redefine them for each use (my code is generated from data with unpredictable colors), hut thanks anyway Gerben Wierda Chess and the Art of Enterprise Architecture Mastering ArchiMate Architecture for Real Enterprises at InfoWorld On Slippery Ice at EAPJ
