Re: [NTG-context] memoir-style chapter heading
Thank you Otared. The power of ConTeXt never ceases to amaze me, though
despite the excellent work done on the wiki recently, it is the little
things like the use of \raise that could be better described, especially
in a range of applied instances. We find it, combined with hbox, in
reference to marginal and centered headers, but it is not intuitive -
for me at least - to be able to apply it as you have done in your
example. The little process we have gone through, which is step-by-step,
is most helpful, and I feel that I can now use these ideas in other
instances and in slightly different ways. Thank you.
How important is the 'lohi' addition you made to \framed? I removed it
to see what would happen and did not notice any appreciable difference
in the output.

Hi Julian,
Actually one can tweak more or less the height at which the chapter number
appears: below is an example in which one uses \raise and \hbox.

Thanks Otared - and whether using the earlier example (Aditya's with my minor
'centering' adjustment)) or yours, I agree - the number is just a bit too low,
and of course, using this method we probably can't make adjustments to that. So
ultimately it looks like I'll have to get my skills up to working with layers
as well as overlays, where minute adjustments of the kind can be made. But
wouldn't it be great if we could just do a bit of vertical adjustment in the
overlay!

I have read through the Metafun manual, and I think I can understand how

to draw numbers of the kind we find in, say, the Memoir examples.
Has anyone created such an example? I was keenly looking for one in the
manual and elsewhere, in terms of ConTeXt/Metafun commands, but could
not find one. But I'd be quite prepared to 'have a go' at this, if I had
some pointers of just where to start! I assume I would have to
\defineoverlay[number] and then add text on top \framed (but without the
frame borders). Am I at least correct about this?
You don't need metafun for something this simple. Here is a crude
implementation:
\setuphead[chapter]
[
numberstyle={\switchtobodyfont[48pt]},
numbercolor=gray,
alternative=command,
command=\MemoirChapter,
]
\define[2]\MemoirChapter%
{\startoverlay

Overlays don't allow tuning the location...for that you need layers. See the

[NTG-context] Index confusion with first entry
Hi, my index of locations shows a strange problem:
Hamburg 6, 12, 14, 24–25, 27, 31, 33, 35, 44, 46, 48, 57, 59, 64, 75, 79, 81,
93–94, 96, 102, 104–105, 108–110, 112, 116–118, 120, 121–125, 6, 126–135, 6,
137– 147, 149, 151–159, 161, 165, 168, 169–171, 174, 176, 178, 182, 207, 209,
211, 215–216, 219–220, 224, 240, 242–244, 291
Page 6 is mentioned two times out of order. The problem doesn’t show at other
locations.
The first index entry (p.6) is made by
\startregister[locations][test]{Someplace}, second is Hamburg (single entry).
If I replace Hamburg with another town, the problem moves.
If I move the Hamburg entry in front of \startregister, it disappears!
I.e. if the first index entry is set by \startregister, the subsequent entry
gets confused.
I tried to come up with a MWE, but couldn’t reproduce the problem in a simple
example like
\starttext
\placeregister[index][criterium=all]
\startregister[index][test]{Knuth}
\input tufte
\index{Donald}
\page
\input knuth
\index{Donald}

[NTG-context] TOC chapter and section numbering
Hello,
I'm attempting to typeset a short book using ConTeXt (current version:
2020.08.09 22:03).
EXAMPLE:
\setuplist[content][alternative=c]
\setuphead[title][alternative=middle,style=cap]
\setuphead[chapter][number=no]
\setuphead[section][sectionsegments=section]
\setuplist[section][width=1.5em,margin=3em]
\starttext
\title{contents}
\placecontent
\startchapter[title={Introductory}]
\startsection[title={The concept of a function}]
\stopsection
\startsection[title={Extension and intension}]
\stopsection
\startsection[title={Functions of several variables}]
\stopsection
\startsection[title={Abstraction}]
\stopsection
\stopchapter
\startchapter[title={Lambda-Conversion}]
\startsection[title={Primitive symbols, and formulas}]
\stopsection
\startsection[title={Conversion}]
\stopsection
\startsection[title={Fundamental theorems on well-formed formulas and on the
normal form}]
\stopsection
\stopchapter
\stoptext
I would like all the chapters to be prefixed with "Chapter RN." and the
sections to keep a single count,
for example:
Chapter I. Introductory .
1. The concept of a function
2. Extension and intension
3. Functions of several variables
4. Abstraction
Chapter II. Lambda Conversion .
5. Primitive symbols and formulas
6. Conversion
7. Fundamental theorems on well-formed formulas and on the normal form
I tried to the following for the chapters:
\defineconversion[church][Chapter \Romannumerals.\quad]
\setuphead[chapter][conversion=church]
Which appeared to generate the prefix correctly but it overlapped the title.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
