Re: [NTG-context] Metafun, difficulty with graphical element in the margin

Hi Willi, How about invoking the command \setups{Thumb-pictures} between a \start \stop pair as in the following: \showframe \starttext \startfrontmatter \startchapter[title=Test A] \samplefile{knuth} \stopchapter \stopfrontmatter %\page[yes] \start \setups{Thumb-pictures}
