Just following up on my own post. The following code has the effect I
was after. If you want to use it as a template, you'd be advised to
read my method in constructing such ugliness.
To remind you, I want to increase the font weight of the chapter
number, but not increase the font weight of the chapter title. Thus,
facing my usual dilemma -- so many commands and no f*cking clues, I
added the \string command immediately before the parameter containing
the chapter number, #1, to see what #1 actually contained.
If you do this, you'll see that #1 contains something else, infact #1
starts out as ``dostartattributes@@ko ... ''. I've no idea how to
read the source code, so at this point, I decided to redefine my
chapter style parameter \BigHeadFont locally, before #1 is expanded.
And so, if you read the code, you'll see a font definition
\definefont[BigHeadFont][SerifBold at 40pt]
buried deep within the code. This seems to work, although redefining
font definitions on the fly is probably not good practice.
I also wanted to move the chapter number, up to the top right hand
corner of the main text area. I did this increasing the amount of
glue until the number was pushed outside its box.
Here is the code:
%% chapter head layout
\setupcolors[state=start]
\setuplist[section]
[style=boldslanted,
align=right,
interaction=all,
symbol=1,
width=0.5em,
pagenumber=no,
before=,
after=]
\setuphead[chapter]
[header=empty,
style=BigHeadFont,
alternative=command,
command=\ContentsHead,
page=right,
after={\blank[2*big]}]
\definefont[BigHeadFont][Serif at 24.9pt]
\def\ContentsHead#1#2%
{\setupframed[frame=off]
\framed[width=\hsize,offset=overlay]
{\placesidebyside
{\doifelsenothing{#1}
{\framed[width=.6\hsize]{}} % dummy
{\framed
[width=.6\hsize,offset=1em,strut=no,align=right,background=screen]
{{\tfa In this chapter:} \blank
\placelist[section][criterium=chapter]}}}
{\framed
[width=.4\hsize,strut=no,align=left]
{\definefont[BigHeadFont][SerifBold at 40pt]
%% Typeset Chapter Number
\hbox{%
\vbox to 24.9pt{% size of BigHeadFont

\vfilll}}
%% Typeset Chapter Title
\llap{\lower29.9pt\hbox{#2\hskip1em}}} % 24.9pt x 1.2
