Hi, for my section titles I’m looking for the alignment parameters that give me: - left aligned - no hyphenation (or only where I set breakpoints manually) - no overfull hboxes

At the moment I have align={flushleft,extremestretch,nothyphenated} (would use also hz and hanging, if they don’t interfere), but in a few cases I still get section titles that are much wider than the text column.

align={flushleft,broad,nothyphenated}

Thank you, but unfortunately it makes no difference. Best, Hraban

You have to provide a minimal example.

I know. My project setup is just so extensive, and there are several problems that I'm trying to isolate since days… I was hoping for an easy solution in this case. I already learned that \setuplayout[grid=strut] makes more problems than it solves while fontfeature dimensions=strut is good; I should avoid frames in section titles (not necessarily, but it’s more controllable without); how to get more control over makeups and that columnsets are somewhat fastidious, esp. with floats… Still open: this one, different behaviour of \blank in before vs. command, chapters always starting on left pages despite page=no (a side effect of the columnset, I guess), and floats, floats, floats. But here we are: \setuppapersize[A6] \showframe[text] \setupalign[flushleft,broad,nothyphenated] \define[2]\MySection{\vbox{#2}} \setuphead[section][ command=\MySection, %align={flushleft,broad,nothyphenated}, ] \starttext \section{Rübenheimer Klimaschutz\-kommission interveniert wohlwollend.} % It should break "Klimaschutz-komission" or put the whole word in the next line, % but it keeps the first two words together. \section{Ein Schwarzelf mit Gelatinewürfel zagt im Regen nie.} \section{Die Donau\-dampfschifffahrts\-gesellschaft lädt zum Tanztee.} \stoptext Best, Hraban

Use \setuplayout[grid=yes] when "grid=strut" doesn't work.

That’s what I do.

\setuppapersize[A6] \showframe[text] \setupalign[flushleft,broad,nothyphenated] \define[2]\MySection{\vbox{#2}}

Put the alignment command in the box.

\define[2]\MySection {\vbox{\setupalign[flushleft,broad,nothyphenated]#2}}

Oh yes, thank you! Could have tried that myself. Best, Hraban
