Hello ConTeXist.
I encountered a disproportion in initializing user counters. Why initialization
at the beginning of the source text does not work and what is the mechanism of
how the user counters work.
Thanx Jaroslav Hajtmar
Here is a sample example:
\definecounter[mycounter]
\def\getmycounter{\incrementcounter[mycounter]\getnumber[mycounter]}
\startbuffer[groups]
\startxrow
\startxcell \getmycounter\stopxcell
\startxcell Content of column\stopxcell
\stopxrow
\stopbuffer
\starttext
%\setcounter[mycounter][0] % initializing at this point not working (the
counter is 10 more than it should be). WHY?
\startxtable
\startxrow
\startxcell Column 1\stopxcell
\startxcell Column 2\stopxcell
\stopxrow
\setcounter[mycounter][0] % initializing at this point works fine
\dorecurse{5}{\getbuffer[groups]}
\stopxtable
\stoptext
