Re: [NTG-context] math: `\overbar` with fractions and subscripts

In text $\overline{q} = \frac{\overline{q}}{\overline{α_0}}$.
\startformula
\overline{q_0} = \frac{\overline{q}}{\overline α}

(one gets as expected the « conjugate » of α_0, for instance).
thank you for your answer. `\overline` works as you say, but it looks
typographically different in the respect that the bar is closer to the
letter, which of course solves the issue for the inline fraction. For α
this looks quite strange in my eyes. But I do not know a lot about
typography.
Please find the PDF-output attached with the following ConTeXt version.

IIRC, \overline is meant for long entities, like \overline{(a+b)}. For
single letters, it is better to use the accent \bar.

[NTG-context] math: `\overbar` with fractions and subscripts
Dear ConTeXt folks,
I do have some problem with the following example (also attached,
executed with `context test`).
\starttext
\startformula
\overbar{q} = \frac{\overbar{q}}{\overbar{α_0}}
\stopformula
In text $\overbar{q} = \frac{\overbar{q}}{\overbar{α_0}}$.
\startformula
\overbar{q_0} = \frac{\overbar{q}}{\overbar α}
\stopformula
\stoptext
I am using the latest ConTeXt Minimals distribution.

1. The bar divides for subscripts/indices.
2. If you look at the first fraction, the bar is as long as the stroke
from the fraction and therefore I think too long.
3. When inlining the fraction in text the bar fuses with the stroke from
the fraction.
Are these know problems or do I just use the wrong commands?
Thanks,
Paul
