This seems to be much better but does not lead to the wanted result. The full example now is: ``` \definestartstop[myhl][style=mono,left={›\thinspace}] \definedescription[categorie][ alternative=top, headstyle=bold, width=broad, ] \definedescription[desc][ width=broad, distance=\spaceamount, headcommand={\groupedcommand{\startmyhl}{\stopmyhl :}}, headstyle=, before={\startpacked}, after={\stoppacked}, alternative=hanging ] \starttext This is a \myhl{highlight}. Some listings \startcategorie{Itemize} \startitemize[packed] \item \myhl{first}: one \item \myhl{second}: two \stopitemize \stopcategorie Now the same as desc: \startcategorie{Desc} \startdesc{first} one \stopdesc \startdesc{second} two \stopdesc \stopcategorie \stoptext ``` This adopts the correct style in \startdesc \stopdesc and sets the colon but omits the › (the left part).
