Problem with special first page of chapter setup
I have this setup in my environment file: ================================================= \setuphead [chapter] [page=, before=\setups{chapter:before}, after=\setups{chapter:after}] \startsetups chapter:before \page[left] \noheaderandfooterlines \startalignment[left,nothyphenated] \startnarrower[4*left] \noindent \em \setups[chapter:quote] \stopnarrower \stopalignment \resetsetups[quote:text] \page[right] \noheaderandfooterlines \blank[force,2*big] \stopsetups \startsetups [chapter:after] \blank[3*big] \stopsetups =============================================== But when I call it =============================================== \starttext \startsetups [chapter:quote] Lee Chong's is to the right of the vacant lot (although why it is called vacant when it is piled high with old boilers, with rusting pipes, with great square timbers, and stacks of five-gallon cans, no one can say).\crlf {\tf John Steinbeck} --- Cannery Row\crlf \crlf Doc explained patiently, ``Both players know exactly the same things. The game is played in the mind.''\crlf ``I don't get it.''\crlf ``Well, look! You can't cheat in mathematics or poetry or music because they're based on truth. Untruth or cheating is just foreign, it has no place. You can't cheat in arithmetic.\crlf {\tf John Steinbeck} --- Sweet Thursday \stopsetups \chapter[h:foo]{Foo} =============================================== I get that every word that is in the input file at th eend of a line is glued (no whitespace) to the word that is on the next line of the input line. How can I solve this? Thanks G

I changed it into \setuphead [chapter] [page=, before={\setups[chapter:before]}, after={\setups[chapter:after]}] That did not help. Then I changed
\startsetups [chapter:quote] ^^^ maybe this is ok, but I don't use any brackets here
to something without [] but that did not help either, G

Hello Gerben, use your second try and *remove* \definebuffer[chapter:quote] from your environment. That's was all :) Greetings, Peter Gerben Wierda wrote:

Hello Gerben,
use your second try and *remove*
\definebuffer[chapter:quote]
from your environment. That's was all :)
Indeed! I have no idea why this worked, but it did. Thank you very much. G PS. Now I only need to know how I can use \placefigure in an endnote (and not get the figure in the main text but in the end notes chapter) and how to get rid of the extra whitespace around a \textline

unspecified behaviour but it seems to work for normal notes (fixed directive): \starttext test \footnote {test \placefigure[fixed]{}{}} test test \footnote {test \placefigure[fixed]{}{}} test test \footnote {test \placefigure[fixed]{}{}} test test \footnote {test \placefigure[fixed]{}{}} test test \footnote {test \placefigure[fixed]{}{}} test test \footnote {test \placefigure[fixed]{}{}} test test \footnote {test \placefigure[fixed]{}{}} test test \footnote {test \placefigure[fixed]{}{}} test \stoptext
