Much of the functionality of the \define and \setup commands is
using shared code (for efficiency and QA).

 What is the proper Context way, should I define the location with 
 \defineenumeration or with \setupenumerations ?

Where ConTeXt provides both, the use of \setup version depends on
your input file. I've had documents where the location changed
based on the placement of the enumeration in the overall document
(chapters with different layout styles), so I clearly needed a
\setup version for that.

If you do not need that, I suggest you just put it in the \define.
Otherwise you have two macros where one is enough, and at one point
you may become confused when a change somewhere in your environment
does not work at all.

Cheers, Taco

[NTG-context] defineenumeration and setupenumeration

2006-04-30 Thread WN




Hi,

I have a question (probably a dumb question) relating to some of the
define/setup commands. One in 
particular, but it may relate to the other define/setup commands as
well.
Looking at the defineenumeration and setupenumerations command
in the Context manual page 223 and page 224 an example is given how to
use
these commands.

I am a bit confused, the example setups the enumaration remark
and specifies the location=top

\defineenumeration
[remark]
[location=top,
text=Remark,
between=\blank,
before=\blank,
after=\blank]

But on page 224 the command \setupenumerations is shown where one can
also 
specify the location among others. 

What is the difference, reason or usage for doing this ? 
What is the proper Context way, should I define the location with
\defineenumeration or with \setupenumerations ? 

Kind regards

Wim
