Re: [NTG-context] how to with \margindata

2020-07-15 Thread Hans van der Meer
I didn't miss that argument, of course, my actual code was:
\margindata[outer][hoffset=\marginoffset]

Using the following:

\margindata{some macro expansions}


You're missing the first mandatory argument, e.g. \margindata[inright]{...}.

I know that \margindata is typeset at a later moment than its place in 
the code suggests. The problem is that macro expansions inside the {}'s 
are expanded twice. This interferes badly with the things I want to happen.


No, the content is stored in a box and placed later.

\definecounter[test]

\starttext

\dorecurse{10}
  {\inleft{\incrementedcounter[test]}Line \recurselevel\par}

\stoptext

Tracing what happens, I conclude that the result of the first expansion 
is lost and is not carried into the actual placement of the marginnote.


The question this is: how to solve this problem?


Provide a working minimal example.

[NTG-context] how to with \margindata

2020-07-15 Thread Hans van der Meer
Using the following:

\margindata{some macro expansions}

I know that \margindata is typeset at a later moment than its place in the code 
suggests. The problem is that macro expansions inside the {}'s are expanded 
twice. This interferes badly with the things I want to happen.

Tracing what happens, I conclude that the result of the first expansion is lost 
and is not carried into the actual placement of the marginnote.

The question this is: how to solve this problem?
