Dear all, could you tell me how to prevent a name from being splitted in two pieces if it is at the end of a line? Thanks, -- Flavien. ---------------------------- "Quantum objects are completely crazy but, at least, they are all crazy in the same way." R.P. Feynman.

Just try the non-braking space. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-breaking_space

\hbox{Some Very Very Very Very Very Long Name} The other question is how to make the rest of text look acceptable. Mojca

A bad suggestion by the hyphenation lady ... how about: \setupalign[verytolerant] \starttext \starttabulate[|p(8cm)|p(8cm)|] \NC \hyphenation{Mi-kla-vec} \dorecurse{100}{Mojca Miklavec turns \recurselevel\space} \NC \hyphenation{Mikla-vec} \dorecurse{100}{Mojca Miklavec turns \recurselevel\space} \NC \NR \stoptabulate \stoptext ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

btw: is it possible to define eg. one column of a (natural) table to be set *not* hyphenated? st.

I thought the same, but why does this end in lines that are not only nothyphenated but also "not-wrapped"?? See example bellow, please.

Perhaps because it's a long word ?

No, this has no effect ... see attached, please: The three words in the first row "Lehre mit Abschluss" are quite uncomplicated (no componds etc.) I can see no reason why this line does not wrap after "mit"? Steffen -------

There is also \hyphenchar\font=-1 (which is global) \setupbodyfont[lmroman,10pt] \starttext \vbox{\hsize10cm\hyphenchar\font=-1 \input knuth\relax} \vbox{\hsize10cm\hyphenchar\font="17\input knuth\relax} \stoptext I haven't found it in base/*: maybe it's use is discouraged. -- luigi

I'm not sure if he wanted to prevent hyphenation or to prevent to break between two words. Is the following solution: Some~Very~Very~Very~Very~Very~Long~Name combined with \hyphenation{some}\hyphenation{very}\hyphenation{long}\hyphenation{name} also unacceptable? Mojca
