No gridding for a single paragraph (ConTeXt)?












6














Is there a possibility to deactive grid=yes in the text for a single paragraph only? It should be something like nogrid{ paragraph.... }. There is placeongrid{} - but this does not allow page-breaking, so the whole paragraph is set as one on a new page, if breaking is needed. I think no minexample is needed here, any paragraph does it.

          You just put stuff in a vbox and vsplit it to break across pages. To not mess up the gridding around, use snaptogrid when placing the boxes.

          setuplayout[grid=yes]
