PhD Style for ConTeXt

PhD Style for ConTeXt

Hi all,

I'm starting writting my phd thesis with ConTeXt in french. According to 
the fact that I'll write it in french, I need to design a specific style 
and consequently, I'll surely submit style-related questions soon.

Some advices ?

Best regards,

just ask -)

since there is a basic layout defined,

\starttext

\chapter{whatever}

your thesis

\stoptext

is a starting point; define the style as you go.

Hi Hans,

I'm working on it now, I've build my document following a complete 
structure (project, environment, products, components) as described in 
the manual, well done...
The layout is now as I want using \setuplayout.
Currently, I'm working on title. I've found the 
\setuplabeltext[fr][chapter=Chapitre] command to customize chapter name 
but then, I will draw a line or graphics under my chapter title and 
don't know how to deal with properly.

Moreover, I experienced some problems with TOC and the use of \title for 
my introduction chapter (I don't want numbering on this).
Eventually, how can I bypass header or footer for a chapter page ?

Thanks, up to now I'm very pleased with ConTeXt, METAFUN and METAPOST !!!

look for sectionblocks (frontmatter/part, bodymatter/part etc) in the wiki

\setuphead[chapter][header=high,footer=none]

Hi Renaud,

Since I ws dealing with some aspects of your questions recently ...

1. Lines under the chapter-title:
    If it should be a simple line then you can use    
\setupbackgrounds[header][text][bottomframe=on].
    If it should be a graphical element one can think of approaches like:
    \setupcolors[state=start]
    \startuseMPgraphic{HeaderDeco}
            numeric w, h, repeats;
            path p[];
            w := OverlayWidth ; h := OverlayHeight ;
            repeats := abs(TextWidth/BodyFontSize);
            p[1] := unitsquare xscaled w yscaled h ;
            draw p[1] withcolor white;
            p[2] := fullcircle scaled BodyFontSize;
            p[3] := fullcircle scaled .25BodyFontSize;
            draw p[2] shifted (.5BodyFontSize,0);
            for i = 1 upto repeats:
                if odd i :
                    filldraw p[3] shifted (i*BodyFontSize+.5BodyFontSize,0);
                else :
                    draw p[2] shifted (i*BodyFontSize+.5BodyFontSize,0);
            fi;
           endfor;
    \stopuseMPgraphic

    \setuphead[chapter][command=\Myheader]
    \setupheadtext
          [chapter=Chapitre]
    \defineoverlay[HeaderDeco][\uniqueMPgraphic{HeaderDeco}]

    \def\Myheader#1#2{%
        \framedtext
            [width= \overlaywidth,
            height=6\bodyfontsize,
            background={foreground,HeaderDeco},
            offset=0pt,
            strut=no,
            frame=off,
            align=middle]{%
                \headtext{chapter} #1
                \blank[small]
                #2}}

\starttext
    \chapter{Here we go!}
\stoptext

   2. Bypassing header and footer: \noheaderandfooterlines or 
\setuphead[chapter][header=high]

Kind regards
