Re: [NTG-context] Strange problem with Blockquote

Hi Robert,
from what I get from your message, there is only one blockquote in the introduction.
How about adding the following code before \starttext?
\startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart] \setupinterlinespace[small] % or whichever value you want \stopsectionblockenvironment
I think it might work. I hope it helps,
Pablo
Hi Pablo, Thanks for your suggestion. I did try to insert this code where I thought I might help, though must admit that I'm not sure what to do with the argument [frontpart]. In my projectfiles, admittedly rather a mess, there is nothing with the name frontpart. Anyway, with or without this or some other possibly more appropriate argument, nothing changed the behaviour of this, or rather a blockquote in this first chapter, not even surrounding the blockquote itself with \setupinterlinespace[small] ... \setupinterlinespace[reset], as I wrote in my original post. But, while I was writing this reply it occurred to me that maybe there might be some local variant for \setupinterlinespace[small] and, yes, I found \setuplocalinterlinespace[line=4ex] on the ConTeXt wiki and this does the trick. (with [line-3ex]). So you did help me, though maybe not in the way you intended ;-) Thanks again, Best regards, Robert

Hi Robert, the command only changed the interline space in the front matter, not in the blockquotes placed in the front part. Sorry, because it was my fault. Today, I realized my mistake.
In my projectfiles, admittedly rather a mess, there is nothing with the *name *frontpart. Anyway, with or without this or some other possibly more appropriate argument, nothing changed the behaviour of this, or rather a blockquote in this first chapter, not even surrounding the blockquote itself with \setupinterlinespace[small] ... \setupinterlinespace[reset], as I wrote in my original post.
frontpart is the sectionblock name for frontmatter. BTW, I didn’t know it myself. Wolfgang explained to me in one of the many replies I received from him. A correct sample should read: \setupinterlinespace[line=4ex] \startsetups[interlinear:front] \setupinterlinespace[line=2.5ex] \stopsetups \startsetups[interlinear:general] \setupinterlinespace[line=5ex] \stopsetups \setupdelimitedtext [blockquote] [before={\directsetup{interlinear:general}}] \startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart] \setupdelimitedtext [blockquote] [before={\directsetup{interlinear:front}}] \stopsectionblockenvironment \starttext \startfrontmatter \dorecurse{2}{\input knuth\par \startblockquote\input zapf\stopblockquote} \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \dorecurse{2}{\input knuth\par \startblockquote\input zapf\stopblockquote} \stopbodymatter \stoptext But I don’t know whether the way of setting the interline space for delimited texts is the best one. Wolfgang, could you correct (or confirm) my previous statement? I hope it helps now, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
