Re: [NTG-context] Changed behavior from \convertnumber{arabicdecimals}{..} as a textcommand for note
Dear Hans,
Thank you for your reply.
Here is the missing MWE. (I will also try to attach it.)
% mwe
% document is an English translation of Arabic text; all annotations are in
English.
%
% concerning footnotes to Arabic text:
% numbers in body should use Mashriki numbers (e.g. ٠١٢٣٤٥٦٧٨٩), and
appear between parenthesis
% numbers in footer should use Arabic numbers (e.g. 0123456789), and
without parenthesis
%
% MWE uses dejavu for English and Amiri for and Arabic. Amiri is availble
at https://www.amirifont.org/

[NTG-context] Changed behavior from \convertnumber{arabicdecimals}{..} as a textcommand for note
This week I updated ConTeXt minimals. Before then, I used the following
code so that footnotes to Arabic passages would have parenthesis around
them and use the digits used in Arabic texts in the Middle East (e.g.
٠١٢٣٤٥٦٧٨٩).
\setupnote [arfootnote] [
headstyle={\switchtobodyfont[kitab]},
textcommand=\footnotenotenumbercommand,
alternative=text,
]
\define[1]\footnotenotenumbercommand{{\high{(\convertnumber{arabicdecimals}{#1})}}}
Since the update, for the 123rd footnote, I now get `(123arabic)` instead
of `(١٢٣)`.
Elsewhere, I do get the expected output (i.e. `١٢٣٢`) when calling
\convertnumber{arabicdecimals}{1232}
I'm still relatively new to ConTeXt, so I'm unsure if what used really is
correct, or if it was wrong and I now need to find the right way to do it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
—Musa

Thank you, Hans. This pointer is exactly what I needed.

you can probably best use
\startsection[title={...},list={...},bookmark={...}]
...
\stopsection
I do not think that is an option for me.
The book is bilingual, with Arabic and English. There are places where I
want the chapter, section, and subsection titles to be bilingual as well,
with English on the left and Arabic on the right. I accomplish this using
the following…
\defineparagraphs[BilingualTitle][n=3,before={\blank[2*line]},after=,]
\setupparagraphs[BilingualTitle][1][width=.4\textwidth]
\setupparagraphs[BilingualTitle][2][width=.12\textwidth]
\setupparagraphs[BilingualTitle][3][width=.4\textwidth]
\define[2]\BilingualChapter
{\expanded{\writetolist[chapter]{}{#1}}
\startBilingualTitle
\noindentation\setlatin{}\tfd\setupinterlinespace\feature[+][smallcaps]\word{#1}\feature[<]
\nextBilingualTitle
\hfill\nextBilingualTitle
\noindentation\setarabic{}\tfd\setupinterlinespace{#2}
\stopBilingualTitle
}
…with variants for section, subsection, and subsection.

Musa

[NTG-context] Confusing interaction between \writetolist and bookmarks (bug?)
I am relatively new to ConTeXt and have encountered something that does not
work as I expected it to based on various documentation and examples.
My book design requires the front matter to contain an abridged table of
contents just for chapters, and a detailed table of contents in the back
matter.
Everything worked fine -- including the PDF bookmarks and table of contents
-- until I started using \writetolist to manually inject additional
sections and subsections into their respective lists. The manually injected
entries do show up (as I expected), but their corresponding PDF bookmarks
get repeated (not what I expected).
Here is a M(not)WD:
###begin
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\placebookmarks[chapter, section][chapter, section]
\setupinteractionscreen[option=bookmark]
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\title{Contents}
\placelist[chapter]
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
\chapter{Chapter ONE}
\section{Section ONE}
\writetolist[section]{}{Section via writetolist ONE}
\chapter{Chapter TWO}
\stopbodymatter
\startbackmatter
\chapter{Detailed Table of Contents}
\placecontent[criterium=all]
\stopbackmatter
\stoptext
###end
The repetitions go away when any one of the following is done:
-- commenting out the front/body/back commands
-- commenting out both contents at front and back
-- commenting out just back contents
-- commenting out the \writetolist
Have I misunderstood something?
Many thanks,
Musa
