Re: [NTG-context] resetting footnote counter
What I've done is the following: I've made a zip archive (see attachment) with a few relevant files – the two first files that will be a part of the book: preface.tex and how-to-use.tex, together with an environment file manual-environment-xasia.tex with a lot of settings, and the starting file sample.tex which puts everything together. This does not need odd things like exotic fonts, and it does not contain uncommon tables etc. I've changed the main font to TeX Gyre Termes, which all of us have (so I assume, since it comes with the major TeX distributions), so there should be no problems there either; but if there is an error message, you can comment out line 12 in manual-environment-xasia.tex and de-comment line 13 to turn the font into Times (or you can change the name of the font to anything you have on your computer).

You disable the chapter counter with \setuphead [chapter] [incrementnumber=no] which prevents the reset of the footnote counter.

\setupfootnotes[way=bychapter]

Re: [NTG-context] resetting footnote counter
Pablo's example works well on my machine. So there must be a disturbance at a
different level in my complex text – perhaps in my settings:
\setupnotedefinition [footnote] [location=serried, distance=1em, hang=1em]
or
\setupfootnotes[bodyfont={Mainfont,8pt}, width=\textwidth, frameoffset=1em,
location=none, way=bychapter]
which in all other respects work fine? ('Mainfont' is my own definition, from a
typescript; I also added 'way=bychapter', to no effect.) The only thing that
does not happen is the resetting of the note counter.
If I had a command that simply says "the counter named X (=footnote counter) is
now 0 again", which I could insert at the beginning of every chapter, the
problem would be solved. (Not so elegant, but it would be a solution.)

With regard to your other thread about documentation of footnotes, the
way I understand it is that \setupnotation is used to configure how the
actual footnote is displayed and setupnotation has similar options to
\setupdescription. So, alternative=serried corresponds to a similar
option for descriptions.
Note that the above is for MkIV. For MkII, I think that you need
\setupfootnotes insted of \setupnotation[footnote].
Indeed, mkiv is different ... in fact notes are a complex mechanism:
- rendering in line (the marker)
- rendering the text (anywhere)
- interaction with the page builder (depending on kind)
- stacking multiple classes
- line notes (refering to lien numbers)
etc. Most of what is in mkii is there in mkiv but in mkiv the textual
rendering has been split and is called notation (on top of a generalized
mechanism that also does descriptions, enumerations and more).
The complication is that we need to group settings for (1) the markers,
(2) the text, (3) the overall mechanism. Of course inheritance also
kicks in then.

I’m afraid Robert needs that for MkII (although he didn‘t mention it).

your command reads:
