Nested itemize (spaces before and after inside environment)
Hello ConTeXist. I tried convert plainTeX source code into ConTeXt source code so that the output PDF gave the same (or approximately the same) result. I did it for one of plainTEX developers (Mr. Olšák), which compared results of PlainTeX, LaTeX and ConTeXt. However, I encountered the following problem. Is there a way to adjust the spacing before internal itemize environment when the external itemize environment is set as PACKED? Thanx JaroslavHajtmar Here is my minimal example: \setupitemize[1][packed][symbol=n,before={\blank[medium]},after={\blank[medium]}] \setupitemize[2][packed][symbol=a,stopper=),before={\blank[big]},after={\blank[big]}] \starttext This is normal text before itemize list. \startitemize \item First 1 level \item Second 1 level \startitemize \item First 2 level (before this line should be big space) \item Second 2 level \item Third 2 level (after this line should be big space) \stopitemize \item Third 1 level \item Fourth 1 level \stopitemize This is normal text after itemize list. \stoptext
Hi Jarda and all, I tested it on my computer using CTX from TL 2010 and 2013 and I have got the same result in both cases. It seems that the content of the option before is completely ignored. I tested another values for this option (\page,\vskip,\godown...), no result. The only one way which works is the manual addition of \blank before and after the nested itemize environment, unfortunatelly. --- Another interesting thing is that the compiler of CTX in TL 2013 does not report an error when I forgot the opening \starttext, or the closing \stoptext, or both, whereas in TL 2010 it does. Is this expected behaviour?

Thanx Tomas. Of course I know about the possibility of solving the problem by directly entering a space before internal environment. However, I prefer setting off the source text, so I wonder how it can be solved. Jarda Hajtmar Dne 24.10.2013 14:21, Tomas Hala napsal(a):
