Align text to grid in ConTeXt












6















Guys am working on a page title and I need align some text to grid in definemakeup



MWE:



showframe
showgrid
definemakeup[custom][headerstate=none,footerstate=none]
setuplayout[custom][grid=yes,backspace=30mm]
setuplayout[grid=yes,backspace=30mm]
setupwhitespace[big]
starttext
startmakeup[custom]
setupwhitespace[big]
input wardpar
input ward
stopmakeup
input wardpar
input ward
stoptext


As you can see, commands like backspace= are working when setuplayout is used, but grid=yes.



EDIT:
Thanks for the answers DG' and Aditya, the option grid=high is very close from what am looking for, but it fails when i use another font eg. sans serif.
See the following MWE:



showgrid

definefontfamily [mainface][rm][TeX Gyre Pagella]
definefontfamily [mainface][ss][TeX Gyre Heros]
setupbodyfont[mainface,
sans,%<---
]

setuplayout[grid=normal]

definemakeup[titlepage][
headerstate=none,
footerstate=none,
]

setuplayout[titlepage][
grid=high,
backspace=30mm,
]

starttext
startmakeup[titlepage]
input wardblank
input ward
stopmakeup

input wardblank
input ward
stoptext

    The makeup environment doesn’t support grid snapping but this shouldn’t matter for a simple title page or full page chapter etc. title. Please describe what exactly you’re trying to achieve and we can provide you a solution.

Makeup doesn't play well with grid, because basically it's a vbox. In this case, internally there is a dontleavhmode that adds a vertical space, and its effect can be compensate using the top option and guessing the value by try-and-error:



showgrid
%
definefontfamily [mainface][rm][TeX Gyre Pagella]
definefontfamily [mainface][ss][TeX Gyre Heros]
setupbodyfont[mainface,
sans,%<---
]
%
%
setuplayout[grid=normal]
%
definemakeup[titlepage][
headerstate=none,
footerstate=none,
]
setupmakeup[titlepage][
top=vskip-0.75em,
bottom=,]
setuplayout[titlepage][
backspace=30mm,
]
starttext
startmakeup[titlepage]
input wardblank[line]
input ward
stopmakeup
input wardblank[line]
input ward
stoptext


You can also use top=vskip-0.75emvskip10lineheight if you want to set the position of the box at 10 lines from the top of the text area.
