Hi

1) the following code

\starttext \startitemize[n] \item \startitemize[a,horizontal,three] \startitem First \stopitem \startitem Second \stopitem \startitem Third \stopitem \startitem Fourth \stopitem \stopitemize \item On the outer level \stopitemize \stoptext

generates the error

tex error > tex error on line 9 in file /home/mickep/tmp/ctx-listexample14.tex: ! You can't use `\prevdepth' in restricted horizontal mode

Isn't it possible to have nested itemize with key horizontal?

2) If I change the horizontal key to columns, then there is an extra line (the extra line in nested itemization has been discussed before, but not with these keys given, as far as I could see). I.e. the file

\starttext \startitemize[n] \item \startitemize[a,columns,three] \startitem First \stopitem \startitem Second \stopitem \startitem Third \stopitem \startitem Fourth \stopitem \stopitemize \item On the outer level \stopitemize \stoptext

gives the attached pdf file, where I would have exptected the first a. in the inner itemize to be on the same line as the 1. in the outer itemize.

Anyone has an idea on what is going on here?

Best regards, Mikael

Thank you Henri, that works, and I can live with adding \blank[-line] in these cases. I still wonder if there is an automatic way, since it seems to only happen when one has the inner itemize in columns. For example, with \starttext \startitemize[n] \item \startitemize[a] \startitem First \stopitem \startitem Second \stopitem \startitem Third \stopitem \startitem Fourth \stopitem \stopitemize \item On the outer level \stopitemize \stoptext there is no extra line (result is attached). /Mikael

Hi Mikael,

The explanation and the solution given by Henri works fine here. The code below gives the attached PDF (with ConTeXt 2016.09.12 18:27 MKIV beta). The point is that an empty \item does not allow to begin a new level of itemization.

Best regards: OK %%% begin \starttext \startitemize[n] \item \blank[-line] \startitemize[a,horizontal,two] \startitem First \stopitem \startitem Second \stopitem \startitem Third \stopitem \startitem Fourth \stopitem \stopitemize \item % Here with a blank line \blank[small] \startitemize[a,horizontal,two] \startitem First \stopitem \startitem Second \stopitem \startitem Third \stopitem \startitem Fourth \stopitem \stopitemize \item On the outer level

\stopitemize \stoptext %%% end

Thank you Otared, and thank you Wolfgang. This problem is solved. If anyone knows about the spacing between items and around itemizations in the case of horizontal key (mentioned in the other thread I started a day ago), then I be all ear (it is then better to answer in that thread). /Mikael
