Re: [NTG-context] notes in the margin

While I’m still waiting for answers to my other questions, I got some 
more:


In my layout, left margin width is zero, but \inmargin always uses 
left margin.
I didn’t find a setup to change that – should 
\setupmargindata[location=right] do the trick? (it doesn’t, also not 
with left)


Further I’d like to place "foot"notes into the margin.
It works like this:

\setupnote[footnote][location=none]
\setupnotation[footnote][
align=flushleft,
location=serried,
width=broad,
]
\setuptexttexts[margin][]
[{\framed[%
align=right,
frame=off,
height=\textheight,
width=\rightmarginwidth
]{\placenotes[footnote]}}]

But I’d like the notes to start in the line of the marker, if there’s 
space.

How can I achieve that?
The only way I found to achieve this is by flushing the notes at the end 
of each footnote
entry which can be done with the next key. The positioning of each 
margin text is tricky
because \placenotes adds skips at the begin of the block (which can be 
reduced with
\placelocalnotes) but a inline version of the command (e.g. 
\placeinlinenotes) which

flushes the notes without vertical skips and a rule at the begin would help.

\define\PlaceFootnote
  {\inrightmargin{\vtop{\placelocalnotes[footnote][before=,after=]}}}

\setupnote
  [footnote]
  [location=text,
   bodyfont=,
   next=\PlaceFootnote]

\setupnotation
  [footnote]
  [alternative=serried]

\setuplayout
  [width=12cm,
   rightmargindistance=0.5cm,
   rightmargin=5cm]

\starttext
\dorecurse{6}{\input ward\expanded{\footnote{This is a footnote 
\recurselevel}} }

\stoptext

Alright, so the answer is: "use linetables!" Thanks, Hans: I will play 
with them and report back!

Hi Hraban,

since your layout had left margin width set to zero, I recommended
[location=right].

Glad to read it helped.

Even if there were no collision, I guess that using the same margin for
both notes would be misleading.

I guess Hans won’t be able to take a look until ConTeXt and LuaTeX are
released for TeX Live 2017.

Which code? The file you mention is all Greek to me.

I don’t know, but both mechanisms aren’t able to split content between
pages:

\setupmarginblocks[width=.8\rightmarginwidth]
\starttext
\dorecurse{5}{\input zapf
\startmarginblock\input knuth\stopmarginblock}
\stoptext

Just in case it helps,

Pablo
