nested itemizations setup

nested itemizations setup

[Idris S Hamid]

Dear gang,

Is there a way to setup, say, three levels of itemizations in a consistent 
way? For example, can I set things up so that

\startitemize
  \startitemize
     \startitemize

      \stopitemize
   \stopitemize
\stopitemize

is always equivalent to

\startitemize[n]
  \startitemize[a]
     \startitemize[r]

      \stopitemize
   \stopitemize
\stopitemize

It appears from the manual that this has to be done each time manually which, 
of course, goes against the TeX/ConTeXt philosophy:-)

and therefore, you can say:

\setupitemize[1][symbol=r]
\setupitemize[2][symbol=a]
\setupitemize[3][symbol=g]

(in this case a symbol is tried as conversion first)

Hi,

You can setup itemize-levels indipendently:

\setupitemize[1][.....] %highest level
\setupitemize[2][.....] %middel level
\setupitemize[3][.....] %innermost level
