Float option “top” affects page break (on following pages)
Hi all, consider the following example. \starttext \showgrid Try to comment the \tex{placefigure} command, there will be 40 lines on the second page. If you uncomment it again there are 41 lines! \placefigure[top,nonumber]{}{\externalfigure[dummy]} \page \dorecurse{30}{line \recurselevel\par} \blank[medium,small] \dostepwiserecurse{31}{50}{1}{line \recurselevel\par} \stoptext It's really a problem if compiling a component file which ends up with another page breaking than the corresponding product file. I hope there will be soon a fix for that … is there already one? Regards Andreas

I found a workaround. One can set \setupinterlinespace[top=0] Is this a bad idea? Are there any disadvantages? I would appreciate some explanations. Greeting Andreas

Mostly a matter of border cases I guess. Btw, you show a grid but don't turn grid snapping on. No fixes to be expected in mkii, but in mkiv the lot will be redone at some point. ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
