Subject: [NTG-context] changing the symbol used in \footnote{}
Date: Sun, 20 Oct 2024 23:29:06 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <172946694636.1601626.17045567471831090226@cgl.ntg.nl> (raw)

I want to use the crucifix symbol as a footnote symbol on the title page of a book.  I don't want this to increment the footnote counter.  The best I can do is: 

\setupnotation[footnote][way=bypage, state=stop, number=†]

but this does not produce any symbol at all.

If I do:

\setupnotation[footnote][numberconversion=set 2]

then I get an asterix, not a crucifix, and I don't know how to prevent or otherwise reset the footnote counter for subsequent footnote numberings.
 
David Roderick.
