I have two contexts, let's call them Sitewide and Section.
On my section context, I want three blocks in a single region.

block1 (from Global context)
--
block2 (from Section context)
--
block3 (from Global context)

Since the UI for Section context does not let me choose the weight of blocks in other contexts, I cannot create this.

I have the same problem, is there a solution for this?

Export the contexts, you can then edit the weights so that they interact correctly.

Possibly should just expose this UI instead of hiding it.

Same problem here.

I'm using context 3.0

As 3.0 is the current main release...

Edit: This solved it for me: http://drupal.org/node/772006#comment-2891978 I didn't know about the inline context editor. Pretty mind blowing stuff... :)

I know this is closed in #772006: Odd behaviour with block order with sub sections in different namespaces. as won't fix but I'd just like to add my support that there should be a native way to set default block weight in the context ui without having to add yet another module just to add one (what I would consider fundamental) piece of functionality.

As far as I can tell, the issues highlighted here are the same as those raised in several other threads. In addition, it looks like the maintainer may be intending for the following thread to highlight a solution (use the inline editor):

#455908: Allow setting block weight via context admin UI

As a result, I hope it's ok to mark this as a duplicate.
