Re: [NTG-context] margin notes (was: lmtx update)
Hi Hraban, Thanks for the hint… indeed I did see that \ColWidth command but didn't think about its definition… Sorry! Now with \ColWidth defined, your code works fine and it has the advantage that the text of the sidenote begins in the margin at the level where the \footnote command appears. However, it cannot control the overflow of a sidenote to the next page, whereas the code given by Hans can do that. I admit that this does not happen very often since a well designed text should not have too many long sidenotes… In case other users would like to use your code, I put the whole example below.

Re: [NTG-context] margin notes (was: lmtx update)
Hi Hraban, Thank you for taking the time to send your code for sidenotes. Unfortunately when I add \starttext test\footnote{A footnote in the margin.} \stoptext to your code, I get an error and unfortunately with recent versions of LMTX the error message ! Undefined control sequence is not helpful to find the error… (LMTX considers \footnote as an undefined control sequence…).
