Hi, I have a spacing problem with the units module. the sample code below shows the problem: an extra space is inserted before the unit when used in mathmode. Any suggestions? Kind regards, Maarten Sneep %% start sample code \usemodule[units] \unit[Wavelength] {\mathematics{\lambda}} {\Nano \Meter} \starttext \dots It is defined as $1/\Wavelength$ with \Wavelength\ the wavelength in vacuum, expressed in \Centi \Meter \dots. Notice the extra space before the $\lambda$ in the first paragraph. It should have come out as $1/\lambda$. \stoptext %% end sample code

%% start sample code \usemodule[units]
\unit[Wavelength] {\mathematics{\lambda}} {\Nano \Meter}

When no number is preceeding the unit, you have to use the command \Unit: $1/\Unit\Wavelength$. Btw: Is it still planned to customize the spacing between numbers and units in general? -- Eckhart
