Subject: chapter page on right.
Date: Tuesday 08 July 2008
From: John Culleton <john@wexfordpress.com>
To: mailing list for ConTeXt users <ntg-context@ntg.nl>

I have set up the \chapter command thus;
\setuphead[chapter][page=right,style={\nimbua},header=high]
....where nimbua is a font. 

The chapter head appears on a recto (odd numbered) page as expected 
but the verso blank page inserted where necessary before the chapter 
head has a running header. It should be blank. I can kludge this up 
with a wrapper macro   containing  \ifodd\pageno etc. but it seems 
there should be a more Contextish way to handle it.

Consider this slightly altered text from a mock-up I did for page
headers:

% Set up double-sided page numbering, backspace, and margins.
\setuppagenumbering[location=footer,alternative=doublesided]

% Use a format that does not autonumber chapters.
% Put at least the chapter in the heading.
% Center the heading and put whitespace between the header and
% the chapter heading.
\setupheadertexts[chapter][]
\setuphead[chapter][page=right,after={\blank[2*big]},alternative=middle]

\starttext
\language[en]

\startfrontmatter
\setuppagenumbering[conversion=romannumerals]
