Stack margin text in ConTeXt

Question

If I try the following in ConTeXt:

\starttext 

text text\inmargin{this is a note.} text text\inmargin{Another note.}

\input knuth 

text text\inmargin[stack=yes]{this is a note.} text text\inmargin[stack=yes]{Another note.}

\input knuth 

text text\inmargin[stack=yes]{this is a note. Now longer.} text text\inmargin[stack=yes]{Another note.}

\input knuth 

\stoptext 

then it only works for short notes. For longer notes I found the suggestion to use stack=continue, but I could not make that work either.

So my question is: How to make it work with floating (not overlapping) text [edit: in MKIV]?

EDIT1: It only does not work in MKIV , MKII is fine

Answer 1

For ConTeXt MK II, add \setupinmargin[stack=yes] to your preamble, e.g.:

\setupinmargin[stack=yes]
\starttext
    This is some text.\inmargin{This is in the margin.}
    This is some more text.\inmargin{This text is also in the margin.}
\stoptext

For more available options, see this article about setupinmargin at the ConTeXt Wiki.

If you are using ConTeXt Mk IV, you may use \margintext in place of \inmargin and also add \setupinmargin[stack=yes] to the preamble, e.g.:

\setupinmargin[stack=yes]
\starttext
    This is some text.\margintext{This is in the margin.}
    This is some more text.\margintext{This text is also in the margin.}
\stoptext
