Hi Thomas,

It seems that if you use \setuplinenumbering the issue is fixed: please have a look here:

\setuppapersize [A6] \setuplinenumbering[location=text,distance=0.5cm] \starttext

\startlinenumbering

\dorecurse{2}{\input tufte}

\stoplinenumbering

dummy

\stoptext

Best regards: OK

Hi Otared, thanks for your suggestion, but it only shifts the problem elsewhere without solving it. New example (I need several different linenumbering setups in my real word document so I can't put a general setup before the \starttext): \setuppapersize [A6] \starttext \start \setuplinenumbering [location=text,distance=0.5cm] \startlinenumbering \dorecurse{2}{\input tufte} \stoplinenumbering \stop \start \setuplinenumbering [location=text,distance=1.5cm] \startlinenumbering \dorecurse{2}{\input knuth} \stoplinenumbering \stop dummy \stoptext

Hi Otared,

thanks for your suggestion, but it only shifts the problem elsewhere without solving it. New example (I need several different linenumbering setups in my real word document so I can't put a general setup before the \starttext):

\definelinenumbering[one][color=red] \definelinenumbering[two][color=blue]

Wolfgang, your approach is right, but hasn’t Thomas hit a bug? According to the description from page 301 in i-context.pdf, \startlinenumbering ... \stoplinenumbering inherit from \setuplinenumbering. Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Thanks Wolfgang, this solution works (I must admit I wasn't aware of \definelinenumbering). Nevertheless, I think Pablo is right because this means one must define every setup in advance. In some situations, it might be useful to change on the fly, and I think this "bleeding" of setups into preceding blocks is unexpected.

\startlinenumbering [location=text,distance=0.5cm] \dorecurse{2}{\input tufte} \page \stoplinenumbering line number placement is delayed till a page is constructed (only then do we know where the margins are) and settings get reset after \stoplinennumbering (there are more cases when grouping can interfere with pagebreaks after the group ends) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

I changed it, valid keys are continue, start, step and method.

Wolfgang, many thanks for your explanation and for fixing the documentation. Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
