Hi Pablo,
Reading the documentation again (i.e. columnsets.pdf), I see that the module
\definecolumnset[example][n=2] allow how to define how many pages we want a set
of columns, each of one being define with its own number of lines and so on.
Therefore, the behaviour of the first page will be different of the second,
etc. Further, one have to imagine a first recto (odd) page blank, followed by
an even page (even, left page) with a double columns (greek-latin text) and the
next third page (odd one) with commentaries. Then, one have to define the
layout, because the number of lines of the greek-latin text on left page has to
fit with the commentaries on the right page (and because it is not the same
layout). Moreover, one can imagine for the moment a printed odd page (on left
page) and a blank one (on the right page).
Maybe it is this behaviour (when a page is filled)- and necessary there is
another behaviour to deal with when context parse for the even page - about
which we have to scrutinize.
The purpose of columnset module is to set how many column for a single page and
how to fit this columns to a number of defined pages (with titles and
pictures). Its goal is not to make separate columns on the same page. At least
as far as I can understand the process.

Hi Pablo,
I'm trying to find a path through the 2 columns set greek-latin with 'criticus
apparatus'.
1. If you put a bigger text for avoid the \dorecurse command, with
\definecolumnset[example][n=2, balance=yes] in the preamble, then the following
coding (note: \startcolumnset and \stopcolumnset commands), all is well as ends
well IF ONLY the text's length is less than a page. If the text length is
larger than one page, there is a mismatch as a result, where the latin text
goes is overprinted on the French text and the footnotes are overprinted by the
Greek text.
2. Moreover, if you comment the \dorecurse command, with a short Greek and
Latin text (only a paragraph each), all the notes are well printed, the same
for the numbering line, but the French text is overprinted by the right column
Latin ! (Points 1., and 2. without ConteXt complaining or any error in the log
file.
3. Now, return to the \dorecurse command, as follow :
\dorecurse{8}{
\startcolumnset[example]{
\Stephanus{1a} [1a] Ὁμώνυμα [...greek text...]
etc.
The result is the same as point 2.
I conclude there is a problem with the columnset command...
4. Now, I wonder if there is not a problem with brackets around the Greek-Latin
text...

Hi Jean-Pierre,
there is something weird with columns and the last paragraph.
Even using exactly the same text for both left and right columns (as
shown in https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2016/085544.html),
the paragraph on the left fits on the first page, but the paragraph on
the right doesn’t.
Well, if that isn’t a bug, I’d like to know what I’m missing there.
Pablo
