Oh dear... The serried alternative does indeed solve the second "bug". And to answer your question, I literally encountered this problem in one of my own documents, so yes, it's a real world problem...
And also good to know the explanation of why the counter acts weird. I'll also check out enumerations, thanks. Also, I'll be more careful about what I call bugs, because apparently it's very possible that it's not a bug that I have to complain about. Thanks for your time. ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
