Dear List,

I'm trying to move up a section title (section b) 2cm upward:

\starttext \section{a} \blank[-2cm,force]\ \section{b} \section{c} \stoptext

The empty space (\ ) after the \blank is necessary here, without which the \blank does nothing. I would like to ask whether there is a less hacky way to let \blank work than the hidden space.

You could use the low level method of \vskip-2cm

Indeed this is a clearer hack. Thank you for the suggestion! Sylvain

Works as a charm! Thanks! Sylvain
