Hi, Hans:
bug report :
here is the test file. (old version of mkiv produce right result.
current mkii result is also right)
It is a bug introduced in this/last month.
The code is a stripped down version of
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Horizontal_Table_of_Contents (altough it
doesn't show toc horizontally)
\newcount\chapcounter \chapcounter=0
\def\tocchap#1#2#3{\advance\chapcounter by 1 #1 #2%
\placelist[section][criterium=chapter,number=\chapcounter]}
\starttext
\placelist[chapter][alternative=command,command=\tocchap]
\chapter{hello} \section{hello} \section{hello}
\chapter{good} \section{good} \section{good}
\chapter{bad} \section{bad} \section{bad}
\stoptext
feature request:
btw, Hans, context should give an option to iterate through all the
chapters/sections to do something tricky.
using \chaptercounter is a really bad idea (the materials should
follow strict rules, like cannot jump from chap 1 to chap 3).
I think with mkiv it is able to achieve that.
question:
I want to show toc before each chapter, and the toc only shows the
following chapter name in red.
How can I do that?
e.g. show the following before chapter 3
% A Page
Chap1
sec 1 sec 2 sec 3
Chap2
sec 1 sec 2 sec 3
Chap 3 %in red
sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 %in Red
Chap4
sec 1 sec 2 sec 3
% Next Page
Chapter 3 % title
a lot of materials
Yue Wang

This bug is still not solved in the current context mkiv version.

i'd like to ask what sort of regression testing you guys are doing. it's
very clear that things are constantly breaking, and even trivial ones but
aren't being spotted.

we have a couple of test docs but no regression suits .. there have been
several attempts to set this up but no one is following up on that
consistently and it's not something that taco and i are going to
maintain (too much to do already)
anyhow, most reports about bugs refer to mkiv and esp structure related
things; keep in mind that most counter, number conversion, multipass
info, etc has been completely rewritten from scratch so there are
definitely bugs esp in gray areas and since some of the control model
has changed, we even will have differnces in configuration between mkii
and mkiv (topic for the context meeting)
this will sort itself out as more is tested

add \number in front of \listparameter\c!number in strc-lst.mkiv or just
in front of your \chapcounter
\number\listparameter\c!number
(info passed to lua has to be expanded)
actually, there is in mkii:
\starttext
\placelist[chapter][after={\placelist[section][criterium=local]}]
\chapter{hello} \section{hello} \section{hello}
\chapter{good} \section{good} \section{good}
\chapter{bad} \section{bad} \section{bad}
\stoptext
but that does not yet work in mkiv

sure, but that's for later; the mkiv structure code has much more
possibilities but first i want to have the standard features complete
and debugged
