Re: [NTG-context] Letter module: Subject below opening
Thanks, Wolfgang. That worked nicely.
I have added the information to the Wiki.
Best,
Parchd.

Re: [NTG-context] Letter module: Subject below opening
\usemodule[letter]
\startletter
[subject={How to change the position of the subject line},
opening={Hi Parchd,}]
The elements of the letter environment can be changed with the
\tex{setupletterelements} commands,
the default order of them is
\startitemize[packed]
\item title,
\item subject,
\item opening,
\item content,
\item closing and
\item appendices
\stopitemize
To put the subject after the opening you have to modify this order with
the following setup:
\starttyping
\setupletterelements
[section]
[title,
opening,
subject,
content,
closing,
appendices]
\stoptyping
\stopletter

British letters typically have the subject below the opening.
A stackexchange user asked many moons ago how to accomplish this in
ConTeXt, and received a rather hackish response
(https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/22438/how-to-place-the-subject-line-under-the-greeting-line-in-t-letter-module-in-cont).
ConTeXt and the letter module have changed a lot since then, if my
experience is correct. Is there a better solution than given there?
Best,
Parchd.

In answer to my own question, the following is certainly nicer than what
I found on stackexchange. Perhaps there is still something better,
though?
\startsetups[letter:section:opening]
\correspondenceparameter{opening}
\blank
{\bf\correspondenceparameter{subject}}
\stopsetups
\startsetups[letter:section:subject]
\stopsetups
\setuplettersection[opening][alternative=setups]
\setuplettersection[subject][alternative=setups]
