margintext example

• \setuppapersize[A8,landscape][A8,landscape]
  \setuplayout[leftmargin=2.5cm,
               leftmargindistance=0.2cm,
               backspace=2.9cm,
               width=4cm,
               rightmargin=0cm]
  \showframe
  
  \starttext
  \margintext{I have discovered a truly
              marvelous proof ...  but
              this margin is too narrow
              to contain it.}
  There is no \math{n > 2} to solve
  \startformula
  a^n + b^n = c^n.
  \stopformula
  \stoptext

Use in titles

Hans wrote that "using inmargin inside a title is sort of unpredictable" and that for titles \margintitle is the way to go.

Bug report: margintitle is currently undocumented, which is why its example is included here. (See: Bug List)

• \setuppapersize[A8,landscape][A8,landscape]
  \setuplayout[leftmargin=2.5cm,
               leftmargindistance=0.2cm,
               backspace=2.9cm,
               width=4cm,
               rightmargin=0cm]
  \showframe
  
  \starttext
  \margintitle{a special command}
  \section{section title}
  \stoptext
