Dear ConTeXt users,

Time goes by but I haven't yet found a nice solution to this issue. When having mathematics, I'd not like to adjust by hand the factor of \linewidth for the \godown command.

Here's a MWE

\starttext

\startitemize[n][style=\bf] \item \godown[-\lineheight] \startitemize [a,columns,four,packed,broad][stopper=),before={\blank[nowhite]}] \item $6(x - \dfrac{5}{12})^2 - \dfrac{1}{24}$ \item $-3(x - \dfrac{1}{3})^2 + \dfrac{1}{3}$ \item $7(x + \dfrac{5}{14})^2 + \dfrac{199}{28}$ \item $-\dfrac{1}{2}(x + 2)^2 + \dfrac{9}{2}$ \stopitemize \stopitemize

\stoptext

Thanks in advance.

Dear all,

I'm struggling to setup a nested itemize with no blank line and several columns.

What I mean is something like 1. a) bla c) bla b) bla d) bla

The following MWE is my starting point

\starttext \startitemize[n] \item \blank[-line] \startitemize[a,horizontal,two] [margin=2cm] \item First \item Second \item Third \item Fourth \stopitemize \item \blank[-line] \startitemize[a,horizontal,columns,two] \item First \item Second \item Third \item Fourth \stopitemize \stopitemize \stoptext

Thanks in advance

Not really tested, but \blank[overlay,-depth] seems to work OK (thanks Hans!). I also take the opportunity to push a bit for the new itemtable mechanism: \defineitemgroup[alex] \setupitemgroup [alex] [each] [a,two] [margin=2cm, before=\blank[overlay,-depth]] \showboxes \starttext \startitemize[n] \startitem \startalextable \startitem First \stopitem \startitem Second \stopitem \startitem Third \stopitem \startitem Fourth \stopitem \stopalextable \stopitem \stopitemize \stoptext Please test for a larger document to see if it works well. /Mikael

It seems that displaystyle fractions insert extra vertical space before the main item. With textstyle fractions, the code works fine. \blank[back,overlay] can get rid of the gap above the first row, but not the space inserted by \dfrac. \defineitemgroup[alex] \setupitemgroup [alex] [each] [a,two] [ margin=2cm, before={\blank[overlay,-depth]}, after={\blank[nowhite]}, stopper=) ] %\showboxes \autofences \starttext \samplefile{ward} \startitemize[n][style=\bf,before={\blank[back,overlay]},after={\blank[medium]}] \startitem \startalextable \startitem \m{6(x - \frac{5}{12})^2 - \frac{1}{24}} \stopitem \startitem \m{-3(x - \frac{1}{3})^2 + \frac{1}{3}} \stopitem \startitem \m{7(x + \frac{5}{14})^2 + \frac{199}{28}} \stopitem \startitem \m{-\frac{1}{2}(x + 2)^2 + \frac{9}{2}} \stopitem \stopalextable \stopitem \stopitemize \samplefile{ward} \stoptext Alexandre Christe 於 2023年8月22日 週二 下午5:48寫道：

Hi Mikael,

That looks very attractive. However, with the following code, I end up with a large gap above the first row.

\defineitemgroup[alex]

\setupitemgroup [alex] [each] [a,two] [ margin=2cm, before=\blank[overlay,-depth], stopper=) ]

\showboxes \autofences
