Hi
Happy new year:
Just curious - I tried this again after some months with the latest beta - it
fails differently now:
system tex error on line 8 in file csetest.tex: Undefined control
sequence ...
1 \setuppapersize[A4][A4]
2 \definecolumnset[columntest][n=3]%
3 \definecolumnsetspan[wide][n=2]%

6 \input knuth
7 \startcolumnsetspan[wide]%

9 \stopcolumnsetspan
10 \dorecurse{10}{\input knuth\par}
11 \stopcolumnset

to be read again
\dorecurse

[NTG-context] problem with columnsetspan
Hi All,
I wonder if you can help:
I have been having a problem with \startcolumnsetspan when I was trying to
create a magazine layout for a Uk psychodrama organisation.
Out of curiosity ( and in the hope i might learn something) i turned on tracing
for a short example that gives the problem
here is the source of the test.
\setuppapersize[A4][A4]
\definecolumnset[columntest][n=3]%
\definecolumnsetspan[wide][n=2]%
\starttext
\startcolumnset[columntest]
\input knuth
\tracingall
\startcolumnsetspan[wide]
\dorecurse{3}{\input knuth\par}
\stopcolumnsetspan
\dorecurse{10}{\input knuth\par}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
of course it spewed out a huge log file but when looking at it i found this:
\dostartcolumnsetspan [#1][#2][#3]-\endgraf \vskip \zeropoint \bgroup
\forgetall \ifnum \columnsetlevel \zerocount \else \columnsetspanhsize \hsize
\nofcolumns \plusone \mofcolumns \plusone \fi \setupframedtexts [cs:#1]
[\c!width =\columnsetspanhsize , \c!linecorrection =\v!off , \c!depthcorrection
=\v!off , #2]\!!countc \namedframedtextparameter {cs:#1}\c!n \!!countd
\nofcolumns \ifnum \!!countc \!!countd \!!countc \!!countd \fi \advance
\!!countd -\mofcolumns \advance \!!countd \plusone \doif
{\namedframedtextparameter {cs:#1}\c!alternative }\v!a {\ifnum \!!countc
\!!countd \!!countc \!!countd \fi }\setcolumnsetspanhsize \mofcolumns
\!!countc \hsize \columnsetspanhsize \setbox \scratchbox \vbox \bgroup
\dostartframedtext [cs:#1][\v!none ]\ifnum \columnsetlevel \zerocount
\namedframedtextparameter {cs:#1}\c!before \fi \unexpanded \def
\stopcolumnsetspan {\dostopcolumnsetspan {#1}}
#1-wide
#2-
#3-
{\par}
Lua linebreak_filter failed, reverting to default on line 9
Any ideas? my actual document exhibits the same sort of fault. It used to work
before I had to update the minimals ( some time ago) when I moved to another
computer and it failed then.
I must say I really like context and appreciate all the hard work that must
have gone into it. I know that it is a large system and will take me some time
to get to grips with.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
Gordon

Thanks very much. That seems to have sorted things out.

[NTG-context] problem with columnsetspan
Hi
I am fairly new to Context and as a way to learn I am working on a magazine
layout for a an organisation to which I belong.
I was getting along well ( with information I got from the web site and the
mail lists).
I am having a problem with \starcolumsetspan. Until a week or two ago it
appeared to be working but I have just installed the minimals on a new machine
and it no longer works with the latest version.
I found this example on the mailing list which give the same results:
\definecolumnset[columntest][n=2,balance=yes]
\definecolumnsetspan[wide][n=2]
\starttext
\startcolumnset[columntest]
\startcolumnsetspan[wide]
\dorecurse{3}{\input knuth\par}
\stopcolumnsetspan
\dorecurse{10}{\input knuth\par}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
I'm just wondering if there is anything I might need to do to the above to get
it to work?
Any help would be greatly appreciated but I am in no hurry for this and could
wait until it gets fixed in the normal round of releases.
Cheers
Gordon
