Hi,

please have a look at testfile below: without a footnote everything works fine, but with the footnote the columnset gets crashed!

this is a tricky situation: - the note is built in one column mode - but flushed in column mode (dus to postponing) - so actually what you see is a mixture you may try: \starttext \chapter{Heading\notesymbol[x]} \definecolumnset[litera][n=2,distance=1cm] \startcolumnset[litera] \footnotetext[x]{xx}\dorecurse{10}{test \input zapf \input ward} \stopcolumnset \stoptext or \starttext \definecolumnset[litera][n=2,distance=1cm] \definecolumnsetspan[litera][n=2] \startcolumnset[litera] \startcolumnsetspan[litera] \chapter{Heading\notesymbol[x]} \stopcolumnsetspan \footnotetext[x]{xx}\dorecurse{10}{test \input zapf \input ward} \stopcolumnset \stoptext

I noticed this bug in a bigger book project: The columnset is at the end as a seperate document (\component). And the footnote was added 300 pages and 5 component files before !!!

As this footnote was one of the last changes that were done before I wanted to send the book to the printer a fast help would be very much appreciated.

Sorry, but it's really quite urgent -

Steffen

%&context \starttext \chapter{Heading\footnote{x}}

\definecolumnset[litera][n=2,distance=1cm]

\startcolumnset[litera]

\dorecurse{10}{test \input zapf \input ward}

\stopcolumnset \stoptext
