Dear list, I have the following sample: \setuppapersize[A6] \setuplinenumbering [width=margin, location=outer, align=middle] \setupnote[linenote] [paragraph=yes, compress=yes, compressmethod=separator] \setupnotation[linenote] [alternative=serried, width=broad] \definelinenote[otherlinenote] %~ \setupnote[otherlinenote] %~ [compress=yes] \starttext \startlinenumbering \dorecurse{20} {uvwxyz\linenote{abcdef} } \stoplinenumbering \stoptext For some reason unknown to me, "compress=yes" only works in linenote if I setup another linenote and set it up with "compress=yes". Could anyone tell me what I am missing or have I hit a bug? Many thanks for your help, Pablo
