how to set \lineskiplimit-\maxdimen
Hi, controlling the lineskip in the old-fashoined way "\lineskiplimit-\maxdimen" doesn' work in mkiv anymore! Please have a look at the example below. Attached you may find the resulting PDFs, set with mkii resp. mkiv.

Hi Steffen, this works, but the \startlocal...\stoplocal combination is not used very often in 'the source' (so there must be a better way). \definestartstop[quotetest] [before={\startnarrower\startlocal\switchtobodyfont[8pt]\setupinterlinespace[line=16pt]\setupwhitespace[0pt]\setupindenting[0em,yes]},after=\stoplocal\stopnarrower] best wishes, Peter

Hi Peter, it looks like you answered to thread "how to setup local interlinespace" ;o) Yes, this works now. But this ... \setupinterlinespace[line=7pt]\lineskiplimit-\maxdimen} ... does not work as it worked in mkii. Just set line=8pt and run mkiv, next set line=7pt and run mkiv. See the problem?! Steffen

Hi Peter,

my attempt to make this list a little more chaotic ;)
Yes, this works now. But this ... \setupinterlinespace[line=7pt]\lineskiplimit-\maxdimen}
... does not work as it worked in mkii.
Just set line=8pt and run mkiv, next set line=7pt and run mkiv. See the problem?!
yes, i see it. the interlineskip with line=7pt is bigger than the one with line=8pt. i looked for the definition of \lineskiplimit at http://www.tug.org/utilities/plain/cseq.html#lineskiplimit-rp [..] IF the glue specified by \baselineskip brings two adjacent boxes in a vertical list closer together than \lineskiplimit, then \lineskip glue is placed between the boxes [78]. -- \def\checkgridsnapping {\lineskip\ifgridsnapping\zeropoint\else\normallineskip\fi} so setting this value while using grid make not much sense. took me some time (also grid beginner), but i guess the attached example is a starting point. oh, and thanks to Wolfgang for his much nicer code (assimilated).

ah, thanks for the info. i guess this is the reason why i had to add the grid correction. :) Peter
