Hello, I can't get the 'align' parameter to have any effect on label text in definitions. Here is a simple test case: \setuplayout[backspace=40mm] \definedescription [test] [location=inleft, width=25mm, align=left, margin=standard] \starttext \test{Hello} World! \par \test{Misaligned} Labels \stoptext Changing the value of 'align' to 'middle' or 'right' does nothing. I'm using ConTeXt ver: 2009.04.28 08:46 MKIV fmt: 2009.5.9 int: english/ english, and LuaTeX, Version beta-0.40.0-2009042219 luatex.web >= v2344 Any help much appreciated, and congratulations to all those who have helped make ConTeXt such an excellent tool.

I'm already having problems with the following minimal test: --- \definedescription[test] \starttext \test{Hello} world! \stoptext --- TeX complains that the file ended while it was scanning \dodowithpar. For TeX this is probably not surprising, and a new line before \stoptext solves the problem. Is it possible to make ConTeXt insensitive to new lines in the above situation (and similar ones)? Oliver

best use
\starttest{Hello} World! \stoptest \starttest{Misaligned} Labels \stoptest In that case, perhaps there's a simper way to achieve my aim: I'm doing dialogue, and want to have the speakers' names right-aligned (ie. ragged left) in the margin. Is there a better way to do this than descriptions?
for example: Jim: Isn't ConteXt fun? John: Sure. When you know what you're doing.

Thanks Wolfgang, that's very helpful. If I understand correctly, headeralign has not yet been implemented, but for now we can use text= \hfill to give the same result. It certainly seems to work fine for me. Cheers, Tim
