Re: [NTG-context] Customizing \cite alternatives
Thank you for the pointer to the options!
- “otherstext” works, yay! (when inserted after “\usebtxdefinitions[apa]”)
- “etallimit” (not “etaldisplay”) is the option for the max number of
authors before they’re replaced by “et al”. (“etaldisplay” controls how
many authors go before “et al” if the list is truncated)
I think I’ll add a more complete example to the wiki, all of this is pretty
complex due to being sensitive to order and overrides and so on.
Best, Philipp

If you use APA, you have to set up the APA cite options. The manual is a
bit on the short side here, but all the options are mentioned. If you
want to change the way et al. is displayed (for APA, the default is
\btxcomma\btxlabeltext{others}), you can do this:
\setupbtx [apa:cite] [otherstext={ et al.}]
The number of authors displayed is defined by the key etaldisplay, so
you would do this:
\setupbtx [apa:cite] [etaldisplay=4]

Makes sense, seems like no default is defined anymore, so it won’t render
without using a style.
I use apa, and the attached screenshot shows my problem.

Re: [NTG-context] Customizing \cite alternatives
It is difficult to answer your question because we don't know which specifications you use for your citations. You will have to provide a minimal example that allows us to see what you're doing.
