picture before \chapter breaking \header \footer setup

[Jelle Huisman]

Hi all,

Another question, this time about \headers and \footers. On the first 
page of the chapter I have the page number in the footer and on all 
other pages they are in the header. This works fine, as expected. 
However I have to include an \externalfigure *before* the \chapter 
command and I discovered that I have to use \startcombination because 
otherwise the \chapter moves to the next page. However, when I use 
\startcombination ... etc \chapter is not longer the first thing on the 
page and the special header/footer setup is not triggered (apparently 
\chapter has to come first for that to happen). See sample code:

% sample
\definetext[mychapter][footer][pagenumber]
\setuphead[chapter][header=high,footer=mychapter]
\showframe
\starttext

%\startcombination[1*1]{\externalfigure}{ % uncomment to see problem
\chapter{first}
%}\stopcombination % uncomment to see problem

\dorecurse{20}{\input tufte \relax}
\chapter{second} \dorecurse{20}{\input tufte \relax} % this works as 
expected
\stoptext
% sample

Is it possible to make this work? (maybe an extra \chapter command 
before the combination that triggers the header-footer setup, but that 
is not printed after all?)

Thanks for any help.

Jelle

You can try to play around with \setuphead[chapter][command=\something] 
and make sure that \something puts a figure where you want. You will need 
to specify the figure by other mechanism (define a command, pass two 
arguments trough one argument, etc).

I would put the externalfigure in the before= of the chapter head,
maybe wrapped in some form of \doifelse.

Best wishes,
Taco

I managed to get it working, thanks again Taco. (Once this project is 
finished I'll add stuff like this to the wiki.)

Groeten,

Jelle
