Ah…thanks for the pointer to \definecoversion. Looks promising. I had also tried:
\defineitemgroup[Steps] \setupitemgroup[Steps][each][n,packed] \starttext \startSteps \item A \sym{k} B\incrementnumber[itemgroup:Steps] \item C \stopSteps \stoptext Which is similar to your \txt solution and increments the counter. Thanks again for the help. -kk > On Apr 25, 2020, at 2:11 PM, Wolfgang Schuster > <wolfgang.schuster.li...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Kevin Kenan schrieb am 25.04.2020 um 21:24: >> I’m trying to create a conditional that changes the symbol used for certain >> item numbers.
