Hi, It seems that the Lettrine module is one of those affected: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/562534/does-context-fail-in-the-lmtx... But, honestly, first, I don't know what means "/Of course it might have other side effects once in lmtx we everywhere expect freezing to be enabled./" I suppose that, in order not to be a nuisance (and not to digress into this real subject of interest), a short answer would be enough to put me on track to investigate it. On the other hand, I suppose the best practice, from what I have just read, would be not to use \forgetparagraphfreezing globaly, but \forgetparagraphfreezing and \setparagraphfreezing at the beginning and end of the first paragraph respectively of each chapter. Would this be the least harmful way? That is, wrapping it up to avoid this provisional failure of the Lettrine with LMTX module, but at the same time to avoid affecting that default freezing proposal in the rest of the document, right? By the way, and just out of curiosity, how does the recommended provisional command work? Would it be something like this in the preamble?: \definingparagraphs firstparagraph][n=1] \setupparagraphs [firstparagraph][1][align={hanging}] And then this arrangement in the \input files?: \startfirstparagraph \lettrine{B}{lah} blah, blah, blah... \stopfirstparagraph \blank [overlay] \strut I know it's a dirty, inelegant solution, but I can't think of a better one at the moment.

Below is a minimal example which doesn't rely on the module, the problem is caused by the order of the \noindent and \parshape command. When a paragraph starts before the \parshape values are set the arguments are ignored because the values are already frozen at this moment, when you set the values before the paragraphs starts ConTeXt applies them. \starttext \hsize 10cm % lettrine module, \noindent before \parshape \noindent \parshape 3 1cm 9cm 1.5cm 8.5cm 0cm 10cm \input weisman \blank % working order, \parshape before \noindent \parshape 3 1cm 9cm 1.5cm 8.5cm 0cm 10cm \noindent \input weisman \stoptext Wolfgang
