I've modified your definition slightly, but in doing so I had to resort to plain TeX. The definition now places the Chapter title underneath the table of contexts. This is to cater for longer Chapter titles. My modification, using \llap, is very fragile, in that I've had to hardwire in dimensions. One day soon I'll think in multiple levels of indirection like you do. Again, however I'm stalled. My modification has had the side-effect that the chapter number which is the most important navigation aid, now commands little respect. I'd like to elevate its status, by pushing it up into the top-right corner (even perhaps slightly out into the margin) and increasing its weight to extra bold. I tried to increase the weight by using cmssbx10, but had no luck. Here's my attempt: % output=pdftex %% chapter head layout \setupcolors[state=start] \setuplist[section] [style=boldslanted, align=right, interaction=all, symbol=1, width=0.5em, pagenumber=no, before=, after=] \setuphead[chapter] [header=empty, style=BigHeadFont, alternative=command, command=\ContentsHead, page=right, after={\blank[2*big]}] \definefont[BigHeadFont][Serif at 36pt] \font\BigHeadNumberFont=cmssbx10 at 36pt \def\ContentsHead#1#2% {\setupframed[frame=off] \framed[width=\hsize,offset=overlay] {\placesidebyside {\doifelsenothing{#1} {\framed[width=.6\hsize]{}} % dummy {\framed [width=.6\hsize,offset=1em,strut=no,align=right,background=screen] {{\tfa In this chapter:} \blank \placelist[section][criterium=chapter]}}} {\framed [width=.4\hsize,offset=1em,strut=no,align=left] {{\BigHeadNumberFont #1}}}} \llap{\lower43.2pt\hbox{#2\hskip1em}}} % 36pt x 1.2 \starttext \chapter {Berend} \section {Botje} \section {Botje} \section {Botje} \stoptext ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread

The following code has the effect I was after. If you want to use it as a template, you'd be advised to read my method in constructing such ugliness. To remind you, I want to increase the font weight of the chapter number, but not increase the font weight of the chapter title. Thus, facing my usual dilemma -- so many commands and no f*cking clues, I added the \string command immediately before the parameter containing the chapter number, #1, to see what #1 actually contained. If you do this, you'll see that #1 contains something else, infact #1 starts out as ``dostartattributes@@ko ... ''. I've no idea how to read the source code, so at this point, I decided to redefine my chapter style parameter \BigHeadFont locally, before #1 is expanded. And so, if you read the code, you'll see a font definition \definefont[BigHeadFont][SerifBold at 40pt] buried deep within the code. This seems to work, although redefining font definitions on the fly is probably not good practice. I also wanted to move the chapter number, up to the top right hand corner of the main text area. I did this increasing the amount of glue until the number was pushed outside its box. Here is the code: %% chapter head layout \setupcolors[state=start] \setuplist[section] [style=boldslanted, align=right, interaction=all, symbol=1, width=0.5em, pagenumber=no, before=, after=] \setuphead[chapter] [header=empty, style=BigHeadFont, alternative=command, command=\ContentsHead, page=right, after={\blank[2*big]}] \definefont[BigHeadFont][Serif at 24.9pt] \def\ContentsHead#1#2% {\setupframed[frame=off] \framed[width=\hsize,offset=overlay] {\placesidebyside {\doifelsenothing{#1} {\framed[width=.6\hsize]{}} % dummy {\framed [width=.6\hsize,offset=1em,strut=no,align=right,background=screen] {{\tfa In this chapter:} \blank \placelist[section][criterium=chapter]}}} {\framed [width=.4\hsize,strut=no,align=left] {\definefont[BigHeadFont][SerifBold at 40pt] %% Typeset Chapter Number \hbox{% \vbox to 24.9pt{% size of BigHeadFont \vss #1}}} \vfilll}} %% Typeset Chapter Title \llap{\lower29.9pt\hbox{#2\hskip1em}}} % 24.9pt x 1.2 \starttext %\showmakeup \chapter {Berend} \section {Botje} \section {Botje} \section {Botje} \stoptext ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread
