Try it by uncommenting various lines:
%\setupwhitespace[none]
%\setupwhitespace[small]
\starttext
\startcolumns[n=2]
%\setupwhitespace[small]
\input knuth
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
Do people agree with that characterization; has the bug been found; what's
being done about it? I don't want to have to re-setup whitespace every time
I go to columns.
\startcolumns[n=2,blank=medium]
\input knuth
\stopcolumns
it's not a bug as by default columns are set up with
blank={line,fixed}
this has always been the case; as columns can be mixed with no columns
we want the lines to align

Re: [NTG-context] columns and whitespace
Hallo Wolfgang, Neither \setupwhitespace[halfline]nor \setupcolumns[blank=halfline]is working. Grid is off by default, isn't it? Set the whitespace after \startcolumns. This works, but shouldn't be the whitespace a global setting? I found an other ?solution? When BOTH \setupwhitespace[small] \setupcolumns[blank=halfline] is set then halfline is accepted. But halfline small. I like context very much, but finding the right option is often a game of pure chance.

Re: [NTG-context] columns and whitespace
is it possible to get a half line space after paragraphs in columns? The default is no space. And \setupwhitespace[small] produces a whole line of space. halfline should work unless the grid is forced (although in mkiv different rules apply than in mkii) Hans Neither \setupwhitespace[halfline]nor \setupcolumns[blank=halfline]is working.
