Greetings!
I am writing a German critical edition in which I am using endnotes, and I
am encountering severe difficulties with formatting them as I should wish.
The idea is to indent the entire footnote?marker and text?0.5in.
In ConTeXt (Mark II) on XeTeX, I can move the footnote marker with this
set-up:
\definenote[critical][conversion=characters,
way=bychapter,
location=text,
bodyfont=12pt,
margindistance=-.5in,
align=flushleft]
Then I move the text by adding the unsightly but functional hack
\hskip.5into the beginning of the argument of
\critical or \criticaltext. Unfortunately, the endnotes do not flow from
page to page in Mark II, and, from the comments on the source code, it
appears that this cannot be helped. Given the length and number of
endnotes needed for my project, ConTeXt (Mark II) on XeTeX does not seem
viable.
In ConTeXt (Mark IV) on LuaTeX, on the other hand, the endnotes do flow
from page to page, but the formatting does not appear to respond to the
margindistance key. From various related posts, the answer appears to lie
in \setupnotation, but, whenever I attempt to pass this command, I get an
?undefined control sequence? error.
In short, my question is, How do I code indenting each endnote .5in with
the highest degree of automation and fewest hacks possible?
Sincerely yours,
Adam Khan
You can try, what I use for footnotes, maybe this is what you want or helps?
\setupnotation[footnote][
alternative=left,
width=2em,
numbercommand=\hskip1.6em\high] %Fußnoten werden eingerückt und Nummer
hochgestellt
\setupnotation
[endnote]
[alternative=left,
hang=1,
width=1.6em,
headalign=flushright]
\starttext
\input knuth\endnote{\input ward }
\placenotes[endnote]
\stoptext

Re: [NTG-context] Indented footnotes in ConTeXt
Thank you for your solutions, Huseyin, Wolfgang, but this still does not fix my problem with passing \setupnotation. Why does Mark IV keep throwing the error “undefined control sequence”? I have reinstalled ConTeXt and run both luatools --generate and mtxrun --generate.
