Hi,
I have two questions related to margin:
- is it possible to move footnotes to margin?
\setupnote [footnote][location=none]
\setupnotedefinition[footnote][location=serried,width=broad]
\setuptexttexts
[margin]
[]
[{\framed[align=right,frame=off,height=\textheight,width=\rightmarginwidth]{\placenotes[footnote]}}]
\starttext
\dorecurse{20}{\input knuth\reference[foo:#1]{#1}\footnote{Knuth #1}}
\stoptext
- similar question: I want to have a list in the margin with all the
indexes in the given page.
How to make these possible?
Third question is related to layout.
I know how to change page layout for a particular page. but how to
change layout for a page whose number is unknown?
for example, I am writing a book that has several large pictures
(imagine a portfolio, or a book introducing photography).
in order to fit the pictures I plan to set each pictures as page
background or layers, that spans 3/2 pages, while leaving the
remaining span (1/2 page) for text.
however, I don't know which page number the picture should be reside,
but I know it should be put near some given text content.
it's not possible to manually give the page number according to the
content because usually document context/formatting change all the
time.
how to do that?
You can fix a float to a certain position with \placeFLOAT[force]{…}{…}.
TO shorten/enlarge a page you can put \adaptlayout in your document
and context change the layout of the page where the command is seen.

Dunno about the second question, maybe there is a tracker option you can use. For the third a few more infos can be useful. When you want to keep the picture and the text together you can try to place the text for the picture with layers too, there are examples for this in the “details” and the “style” manuals.

When you want to keep the picture and the text together you can try to place the text for the picture with layers too, there are examples for this in the “details” and the “style” manuals. the text main text (just normal text in between the start text and stop text). so details and style might not suffice. Since if I put it within a layer, the text will not flow correctly. for example: \starttext (a lot of paragraphs) surrounding paragraphs \some_command_to_include_the_picture surrounding paragraphs (a lot of paragraphs) \stoptext here, the paragraphs should run as normal paragraphs, with these requirement: 1. the paragraphs runs continuously 2. when the picture occurs, the layout of that span changes 3. the paragraphs still runs without (page) breaks through surrounding pages including the picture span page. 4. the surrounding paragraphs before and after, should appear near the picture. take an example: \starttext paragraphs A-P \include picture paragraph Q-Z \stoptext the final result should be: page1: para A,B,C page2: para D,E page 13: para M, N page 14: 2/3 picture page 15: 1/3 picture + text flow (para O,P,Q) page 16: paraR, S, when the user include the picture, he will have no idea where the picture might appear. So is there a way to automatically change the page layout at a specific page (at this example, page 14,15).
