Running Heads Question

Running Heads Question

[Helin Gai]

Hi all,

I have some trouble setting up the layout in ConTeXt:

1. I'm trying to place the running head in the margin, 5 cm away from
the top. My original idea is to use \setupheader[margin][...], but it
turned out that this doesn't work at all - the header is not in the
margin, and the setups in the second brackets are simply ignored.

2. I'm trying to use oldstyle for section numbers, so i specified
numberstyle=\os, but the dot in the section number become a
right-oriented triangle.

3. In LaTeX, I can use \thechapter to obtain the chapter number when
defining something. So what's the equivalance in ConTeXt?

Any input will be appreciated! Thanks!!

Sincerely,
Helin
