Two questions about registers

Two questions about registers

[Marcin Borkowski]

Hi list,

I have two questions regarding registers.

1. How to change the title of the register (placed by
\completeregister) and its numbering style?  (Assume that e.g. I want
it to be an unnumbered section and not a numbered chapter.)

2. I'd like my register not to have the headers with subsequent letters
of the alphabet.  I did [indicator=no] in \setupregister, but still got
the *vertical spacing* between gropus of entries beginning with the same
letter. Then, I did also [before={}], but then the space between entry
groups is actually *smaller* than the usual interline space (confirmed
by doing \showgrid).  What should I do to prevent this from happening?

Regards,

OK, I've just found out about \setupheadtext[register={...}], but the
rest of my problems are still unsolved for me.

Me again: seems it was an ID10T error, the problem was insufficient
magnification in the pdf viewer.  Solution wikified under "Registers".

The problem with head style of the title of the register is still
unsolved, though not critical - I can use \placeregister and supply the
title myself.

Best,

When you use one of the \complete… (content, synonyms etc.) commands
context uses either \chapter or \title to place the heading for the register,
in addition it creates a reference to the register which has the name
of the register, e.g. “content” or “index”.

In cases where this heading type isn’t sufficient you can use \title
(or any other heading) in combination with \place…, the disadvantage
of this method is that you loose the multilingual labels (not really
a problem) but you can access the texts with \headtext{…},
e.g. \headtext{content} or \headtext{index}

Can you provide a example for this?

Just curiosity: when \chapter and when \title?

By "multilingual labels", you mean the texts like "Index", "Contents"
etc., right?

See my other email.  Tl;dr: I was wrong, everything is fine.
