I am struggling with getting the first pages of my chapters laid out as
desired. What I want on the top third of the page is a roughly 2 inch square
graphic on the left with the chapter number and chapter title on the right
in large print. The following chunk errors out as shown but works when
hard-coded. Am I headed off in the wrong direction by trying to use columns
in this way? Previously, I tried treating the chapter number and title as
text with startfiguretext. It works but I can't format the chapter titles to
fit properly. Any suggestions for a ConTeXt beginner?
\def\ChapterTop#1#2{
\startcolumns[n=2]
\placefigure[left]{none}{\externalfigure[chief]}
\column
\switchtobodyfont[26pt] {\ss\bf\sl #1}
\blank[large]\blank[large]
{\ss\bf #2}
\stopcolumns}
\setuphead[chapter]
[command=\ChapterTop, header=high,footer=pagenumber,page=center]
\input c:. %chapter used to test the code
