The first and third setup do not give an underbar, the second does.
Question: why does "ex" qualify as a dimension unit but "pt" and "mm" do not?
Sounds strange.
If I want an underbar exactly 1mm or 3pt's thick, why isn't that made possible?
Doing the math myself is no option, becaus ex will not be known beforehand.
The underlying Lua code accepts only “ex” and “em” as valid options for the
“unit” key but I would also vote to accept either “pt”, “mm” etc. as unit value
or to allow “rulethickness=…pt”.
actually it does accept more units but they were pretty small (needed an
1/u)
anyhow, in the next beta we can do
\starttext
\setupbars[unit=mm,rulethickness=1]
bar\startbar[underbar]foo\stopbar bar\blank
\setupbars[unit=ex,rulethickness=1]
bar\startbar[underbar]foo\stopbar bar\blank
\setupbars[unit=pt,rulethickness=1]
bar\startbar[underbar]foo\stopbar bar\blank
\setupbars[unit=pt,rulethickness=10pt]
bar\startbar[underbar]foo\stopbar bar\blank
\stoptext
but someone has do document it
