Hello Hans,
I would like to prevent caption stoppers from appearing in
references in ConTeXt.
Here is a minimal example:
\starttext
\setupcaptions[numberstopper=.~---~, distance=0em]
\placefigure[][cow]{A Cow}{\externalfigure[cow]}
\in{Figure}[cow] shows a cow.
\stoptext
Aditya suggested that I use suffix instead of numberstopper, which
works very well, but Wolgang said:
‘I’m sorry to disappoint you but there is no official solution to
achieve this.
There are ways to change the stopper for section numbers in the
heading and
the text but not for the other counters (floats, descriptions etc.).
The solution you got from Aditya at stackexchange works but it’s
more a hack
because suffixes are used when you use a splitted float (e.g. a
table which spans
multiple pages) where you get 1.a., 1.b etc. (the a and b are
suffixes) as numbers.’
So since numberstoppers — of any kinds (for floats, sections,
descriptions) — are supposed to separate numbers from titles, it
would be logical that they don’t appear in references because
references don’ have titles, only numbers, so no separation sign
(numberstopper) is needed. Could you change that behaviour Hans, or
add a command for setting the layout of the numbers in references
(separators, counter conversion, etc.)? There is already such a
command for section numbers and you only have to add another one for
other counters.
Best regards.
