Hi there,
I am a newbie, and have /seem/ to have discovered that
\setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided] generates a blank page
between chapters.
\setupheadertexts[chapter]
\setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided,location={header,inmargin}]
\starttext
\startchapter[title={October 2000}]
Blah One
\stopchapter
\startchapter[title={November 2000}]
Blah Two
\stopchapter
\stoptext
This produces a PDF in TeXworks containing 4 pages:
* Page 1 with a header an 'October 2000' header and 'Blah One' content
* Page 2 with a header an 'October 2000' header only.
* Page 3 with a header an 'November 2000' header and 'Blah Two' content
* Page 4 which is completely blank
If I remove the \setuppagenumbering line the PDF contains just two
pages, with the expected content.
I'm using "ConTeXt ver: 2019.10.11 15:47 MKIV beta fmt: 2019.10.25
int: english/english"
Am I doing something wrong, or is this just a bug?
With \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] you get a doublesided
document
with left and right pages. The default setting for chapters is to start
always on a right page
which can lead to empty left pages.
The normal layout are single sided document
(\setuppagenumbering[alternative=singlesided])
with right pages only which can't lead to empty pages unless you add an
extra check at the
begin of each chapter.
There is also a third mode which creates the same layout on each page
but you can
checl for left and right pages, this mode is enabled with
\setuppagenumber[alternative={singlesided,doublesided}].
