Hi Massi,

Why don't you try this kind of parallel paragraphs ?

% \setuppapersize[A5]
\defineparagraphs[TwoThird][n=2]
% The second paragraph width is automatically calculated, if not specified.
\setupparagraphs[TwoThird][1][width=.66\textwidth]
\starttext
\startTwoThird
quotation{...{\it pourquoi y a-t-il quelque chose plutôt que rien ?}
Parce que rien n’est plus simple et facile que quelque chose.
Plus loin, sachant que les choses existent,
on doit être en mesure d’expliquer
{\it pourquoi elles existent ainsi,}
et pas autrement.}
\nextTwoThird
G. W. Leibniz, {\it\fr Principes de la nature et de la grâce fondés en raison,} 
1714.
\stopTwoThird
\stoptext

Another solution is :

\defineparagraphs[TwoColumns][n=2,align=verytolerant]
\startsetups[TwoColumns]
\setupinterlinespace[line=5ex]
\stopsetups
\setupparagraphs[TwoColumns:2][inner=\directsetup{TwoColumns}]

\starttext
\input tufte

% here start the twocolumns
\startTwoColumns

Thanks for the answer, Wolfgang.

That's not style and color, it's a sort of two-column layout with the
main text in the left column and annotations (comments) in the right
one.
Example (it does not work):

\starttext

This is the main text\sidenote{annotation} flowing in the left
column...

\stoptext

resulting in

|This is the main text flowing   | annotation               |
|in the left column...           |                          |

You can do it with setuplayout and a wider right margin, using \inright
for annotations, but it's for the whole document or a whole page.
Is that possibile only for a section of text inside a page?

Best regards,
Massi
