[NTG-context] styling individual parts of ToC entry
Now that with Hraban's invaluable assistance I am able to include title,
subtitle, author as and when necessary in the ToC and put them on the
same line if I need to, I have two questions that I have not found a
satisfactory solution to after playing around with various possibilities.
I need:
(1) the author's names lined up vertically throughout the ToC, and
(2) the first part of the entry (e.g. Foreword) to be bold, but the
author name to be regular text.
An adjusted version of Hraban's setup can show what I have tried by way
of example:
%
\define[1]\TitleTocEntry{%
#1\hskip 1cm% title
\structurelistuservariable{author}%
}
\setuplist[title][textstyle=bold,
textcommand=\TitleTocEntry,
]
%---
/Question 1:/ /How to get the two author names to line up vertically./
Given that I have both a Foreword and a Preface, I am using \title for
these. And both have separate authors. The titles will be simply
'Foreword' and 'Preface', obviously.
*Foreword Author name*
*Preface Author name*
I am using \hskip 1cm to separate the authors' names from either of
those two words. But this does not give me the kind of exact positioning
I need to get the two author names directly underneath each other in the
list. I have tried various alternatives to \hskip, but none of them can
give me the correct proportional distance. The distance is obviously
being controlled by the fact that 'Foreword' is 8 characters and
'Preface' is 7. Is what I want only obtainable with a table setup?
The issue might or might not be more complicated when I get to main
chapters, where the author names need to line up with the Foreword and
Preface author names as well. There will be, e.g.
Chapter One Title
Author name
//
/Question 2:/ /How to independently get Foreword and Preface to be bold,
but the authors' names to be regular./ \setuplist offers me options like
textstyle, pagestyle, numberstyle, but they apply to everything (both
Foreword/Preface and Authors' name are bold). I thought perhaps I could
control it from within the document, e.g.
\starttitle[title={\ss\bf Foreword}][author={A. Uthor}]
But that does the same - both Foreword and A. Uthor end up bold. And
besides, I also want to style the ToC independently of the heads if I can.
The wiki and various manuals do offer various tips on modifying the ToC,
but I cannot find anything regarding the two questions above - not yet,
anyway. If someone knows where, please point me to it.

Thank you! This is quite sophisticated and I’ll keep it for next time, but for
my current book, Taco’s solutions needs less adaption.

[NTG-context] Quotation with footnote
My current book contains a lot of quotations with their sources marked as
footnotes, e.g.
\definedelimitedtext[Zitat][
%setups=Zitat, % doesn’t work!?
left=»,
right=«,
leftmargin=2em,
rightmargin=1.5em,
]
\startZitat
A rose is a rose is a rose.\footnote{Marx brothers}
\stopZitat
Now, since the quotations are whole sentences or paragraphs, the footnote
marker needs to be placed _after_ the closing quotation mark. (German
typography, I learned it’s different at least in US English.)
I tried several approaches e.g. with my own single start/stop macros that call
\start/stopnarrower or \start/stopZitat – that always lead to unclosed
environments.
* Only the delimitedtext approach gives a hanging opening quotation mark (which
looks nice and I’d like to have).
* \stopnarrower within a macro doesn’t seem to work (all following text stays
narrower).
* I can’t get rid of that space introduced by the CR before \stop – didn’t find
a place where \gobblespacetokens works, maybe that’s the wrong command.
Most preferred would be a solution that checked if there’s a footnote in front
of \stopZitat and would put the closing quotation mark in front instead of
after. Without a footnote it would just place the mark.
Something like \stopZitat\footnote{...} would also be nice, but I guess that’s
too far outside of TeX’s logic.
In the worst case I’d need to typeset the closing mark manually.
Some hints please?

Sorry that the command is still undocumented but I thought the example would be
clear enough:
You can’t check (i.e. use \doifnot) on \structurelistuservariable because that
always contains at least some invisible tokens, you must use
\rawstructurelistuservariable instead.
But if all of your chapters have the author set, you don’t need that check.

Have another look at your \ChapterTocEntry: you call the author by
\structurelistuservariable{author} and set the title as #1 in the next line.
Just adapt this to your needs.

Try \labeltext{chapter} in the right place.
Good luck & have fun!

Re: [NTG-context] author in ToC and other design complications
Thanks, and I am sure that this entry into the wiki will be also helpful
for others. For me it will be step by step, and using your information I
can now at least get an author's name into the toc! But that's about
all. Just know that when you say (in the new wiki addition) 'check on
\rawstructurelistuservariable' that link simply tells me 'There is
currently no text in this page'. That leaves someone like me without a
lot of the long-gained knowledge that others have, quite lost :-)
But I took your example and adjusted it for, say, a chapter which has
just a title (no subtitle) and an author, and added, below what I
already have in the preamble:
\define[1]\ChapterTocEntry{%
\structurelistuservariable{author}\crlf%
#1\crlf% title
%\structurelistuservariable{subtitle}}%
}
\setuplist[chapter][
textcommand=\ChapterTocEntry,
]
So, in other words I swapped the word 'section' in your example with
'chapter'. That now gives me in the ToC, something like the following:
One Author name
Title pg no.
Which is pretty much what I am after. Hooray! But how do I get that in
reverse? And how do I get the word 'chapter' to also appear in front of
'One'? You see what I mean by needing step-by-step. Maybe there are not
too many nearly 75+-year-olds still surviving Covid and working with
ConTeXt! But I don't give up too easily, so let me just get this next
step right with a bit of help.

Of course, I would prefer it to say 'Chapter One' not just 'One', so that is a

something quite different and I really do not know how to go about it. I did
look at 'Author in ToC' in the wiki, but that referred me to a somewhat
complicated Proceedings style, and given that my Chapters are all set up
anyway, I just couldn't follow that. Am hoping there is some other way I can
achieve the design that follows:
ForewordAuthor's nameiii
Chapter One Chapter title

Chapter Two1820-1880

Hi,
I’d like to have an (person) index entry like
Ramm, Hraban passim
i.e. without actual page number.
How can I force that?
I also need to be able to refer to it like
\seeindex{Hraban}{Ramm, Hraban)
You can use this when the entry appears only once which replaces the
page number with "passim".
\define[1]\Passim
{passim}
\defineprocessor [passim] [command=\Passim]
\starttext
xxx\index{First}
yyy\index[passim->]{Second}
zzz\seeindex{Third}{Second}

Use check=yes

i.e. the reference target often has a different wording from the entry,
and thus \seeindex{Something}{} always inserts a "see".
Now I understand.
Since I'm working with XML, I'm using registers in an even stricter way:
the text I'm indexing is actually the ID of a person in a database.
Something like this:
Carolyne
in the main text results in a \index[miller_carolyne]{v18in231}
In another place of the XML there's a record like this:
Miller, Carolyne ...
The deeptextcommand parameter of \setupregister is set to a macro that
takes the ID and gives back the text of the person.
Maybe in the database there's also another record like this:
sort-key="sayn_wittgenstein_carolyne">Sayn-Wittgenstein, Carolyne
Miller, Carolyne
that results in a
\seeindex[sayn_wittgenstein_carolyne]{Sayn-Wittgenstein,
Carolyne}{Miller, Carolyne}
I don’t know how common these "passim" entries are in scientific works; maybe I
could use
Mainperson firstpage–lastpage
instead to avoid the major hassle of tricking the index mechanisms.
in that case \startindex...\stopindex or \startregister...\stopregister
could be your friends.

Re: [NTG-context] \setupuserpagenumber not working as expected
Jan Willem Flamma schrieb am 03.09.2020 um 10:29:
Dear Julian,
I use something similar using a main product file, an environment file
that contain the styling and several components that build up the
frontmatter, the manual and the appendices.
Below my setup where I start the roman numbering on the table of
contents page (page 5 or v in roman)
Once the bodymatter starts the pagenumber is set to the arabic 1 (see
below in the main product file)
You should be able to copy and adapt to your needs.
There are lot of things which can be improved in your example.
1. Pass the filename of the component/product to \startcomponent and not
some dummy name (or just use *), this allows you to print the filename
with \currentcomponent or \currentproduct
2. Use \setvariables or \setupdocument to set the document title,
revision etc.
3. Use \startsectionblockenvironment to move setups from the document
content into the environment file.
4. Use pagestate=start to increase the page counter with
\startstandardmakeup.
5. Set search path for figures (\copypages use the figure mechanism)
with \setupexternalfigure[location=...].
Below is a modified (but untested) version of your sample document.
