I am running into two issues with my mkii-to-mkiv conversion project - The \chapter command in mkiv uses more whitespace between the header and the first paragraph. How can I influence this? - \startitemize[packed,joinedup] inserts whitespace between the list and the paragraph before it where mkii doesn’t How can I fix this? G

I’m struggling to make a minimal example.It happens in my project, so it is a result of my …/products/prd_book.tex and ../environment/env_cataoia.tex and the test file. I need to give three files, two of which differ between mkii and mkiv because of different font commands and lettrine vs initial

The different space before the \chapter is caused by the “fixed” keyword for \blank which produce different result with MkII and MkIV and the MkIV behaviour need to be corrected. The space after \chapter comes from your \writetolist entry and you can correct this with the \GotoPar command at the end of the entry as shown below. %%%% begin example \showgrid \setuphead[chapter][before={\blank[force,2*line]}] \starttext \chapter{Knuth} \writetolist[chapter]{}{}\GotoPar \input knuth \stoptext %%%% end example Wolfgang

: I am running into two issues with my mkii-to-mkiv conversion project
- The \chapter command in mkiv uses more whitespace between the header and the first paragraph. How can I influence this?
The different space before the \chapter is caused by the “fixed” keyword for \blank which produce different result with MkII and MkIV and the MkIV behaviour need to be corrected.
The space after \chapter comes from your \writetolist entry and you can correct this with the \GotoPar command at the end of the entry as shown below.
%%%% begin example \showgrid
\setuphead[chapter][before={\blank[force,2*line]}]

\writetolist[chapter]{}{}\GotoPar

Can you send a *working* minimal example!
I don’t know how. It happens with my project. I can’t publish my entire project’s source code as it is for a book that is sold commercially. I’ll look into trying to make a minimal example. But so far I haven’t been able to. G

The initial is the problem but you can fix this when you replace \GotoPar with a different mechanism. %%%% begin example \showgrid \definelist[chaptertext][style=\itx] \define[1]\ChapterAbstract{\doflushatpar{\writetolist[chaptertext]{}{#1}}} \starttext \title{\headtext{content}} \placelist[chapter,chaptertext] \chapter{Knuth} \ChapterAbstract{\input ward } \placeinitial\input knuth \stoptext %%%% end example Wolfgang
