Hi everyone, I want part titles to appear on the own (empty) page, centered horizontally and vertically, and in small caps. To this end, I've set up the \part command as \def\Partcommand#1#2{\centerline{\smcp #2}} \setuphead[part][ placehead=yes, number=no, page=mychapterpagebreak, header=high, footer=high, before={\hbox{}\vfill}, command=\Partcommand, after={\vfill}, prefix=no, ] However, this does not seem to allow line breaks in a part title, which is a problem with very long titles, e.g. \part{Perspectives on Decision Ethics from the USA, Russian Federation, Egypt, and the Czech Republic} Is there any way to get a line break on the part page? I should note that in the TOC, the part title is broken properly, and also observes \crlf. Thanks, Michael

The problem is that \centerline puts things in a hbox, which won't break across lines. The solution below might not be the most ConTeXt-y way, but is perhaps the TeX way: \def\raggedcenter{% \hyphenpenalty=10000 % no hyphenation \parindent=0pt \rightskip0pt plus1em % add stretchy glue to left \leftskip0pt plus1em % and right \spaceskip.3333em \xspaceskip.5em \parfillskip=0pt % reg. word spacing \hbadness=10000 % Last line will usually be underfull, so turn off % badness reporting. } \def\Partcommand#1#2{{\raggedcenter\smcp #2}} \setuphead[part][ placehead=yes, number=no, page=mychapterpagebreak, header=high, footer=high, before={\hbox{}\vfill}, command=\Partcommand, after={\vfill}, prefix=no, ] -- Michael Murphy

Hi Michael!
Thanks for your answer!

\def\raggedcenter{% \hyphenpenalty=10000 % no hyphenation \parindent=0pt \rightskip0pt plus1em % add stretchy glue to left \leftskip0pt plus1em % and right \spaceskip.3333em \xspaceskip.5em \parfillskip=0pt % reg. word spacing \hbadness=10000 % Last line will usually be underfull, so turn off % badness reporting. }
\def\Partcommand#1#2{{\raggedcenter\smcp #2}} \setuphead[part][ placehead=yes, number=no, page=mychapterpagebreak, header=high, footer=high, before={\hbox{}\vfill}, command=\Partcommand, after={\vfill}, prefix=no, ] Hmm... that doesn't seem to do linebreaks. It shifts the part title a bit horizontally. It also does weird things to some my *chapter* titles (add a large space after the first word), which is configured as \setuphead[chapter][ page=mychapterpagebreak, number=no, alternative=c, align={center, nothyphenated, verytolerant}, style={\switchtobodyfont[16pt]}, header=high, footer=chapterpage, ]
WTF? Very very strange! Michael

That shows me for not testing it properly. -- Michael Murphy

Works great! I ended up with \definefont[PartStyle][Caps sa 1] \definepagebreak [mychapterpagebreak] [yes,header,right] \setuphead[part] [placehead=yes, page=mychapterpagebreak, number=no, before={\startstandardmakeup[align={middle,lohi}]\switchtobodyfont[18pt]}, after=\stopstandardmakeup, style=PartStyle, align=middle, prefix=no] The only things I had to add were the mychapterpagebreak, which makes sure the (left) page before the part title is empty, and the fontsize. Thanks! Michael
