Hi,
I realized yesterday that my counter for the module does not reset
itself as before. What I need is a counter that resets after each
heading (chapter, section, subsection, subsubsection and so on).
This is what I know about counter reseting at the moment:
\definecounter[ParagraphNumber][prefix=no,way=bysection]
- way=bychapter: reseting counter at every chapter (default)
- way=bysection: reseting counter at every section (not at chapters)
- way={bychapter,bysection,bysubsection,bysubsubsection}: does not work
\setuphead[chapter,section,subsection,subsubsection][after={\resetcounter[ParagraphNumber]}]
does work but it messes with the distance between heading and normal
text.
What is the correct/best way to make the counter reseting every
heading without messing around?
Thanks
P.

we probably need something byheader or maybe indeed a comma separated list

Or perhaps a \c!setups key for \setuphead commands.
Another option is to add spacebefore and spaceafter keys to set distance,
rather than the before and after keys. A few commands use spacebefore and
spaceafter, and it will be nice if all commands used them.

Hi,
few months ago (18th may) I asked about how to setup a counter that
resets after each heading (chapter, section, subsection, subsubsection
and so on.
I got three possibilities then but none of them was implemented (and
still is not):
1)
\definecounter[ParagraphNumber][prefix=no,way={bychapter,bysection,bysubsection,bysubsubsection}]
2)
\definecounter[ParagraphNumber][prefix=no,way=byheader]
3)
\setuphead[chapter,section,subsection,subsubsection][after={\resetcounter[ParagraphNumber]}]
as soon the spaces are defined over spaceafter instead of after.
Is there a forth option out? Or can anyone tell me
what the defaults spaces are so that I can copy them manually?
Thanks
P.

When you use the start/stop commands for the headings you can use the inside section key to reset the counter, e.g. \setuphead[insidesection={\resetcounter[…]}]
> Or can anyone tell me what the defaults spaces are so that I can copy them manually?
Here are the default values taken from strc-def.mkiv, the subsection etc. inherit the settings from section.
part, chapter:
before = \blank[2*big]
after = \blank[2*big]
section:
before = \blank[2*big]
after = \blank

Thanks Wolfgang,
the solution with \startchapter and insidesection works fine.
I wasn't aware of that \startchapter-stucture at all. Regarding to
"The \startchapter command is recommended over \bookmark as the
latter might become obsolete" from
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/PDF_Bookmarks_and_Headers
is that also the new recommended way of defining chapters instead of
\chapter{..}?

With \startchapter etc. it’s easier to set different texts for the heading, header,
bookmarks and table of contents because there is a key for each of them while
for \chapter you can only set one text for all of them. Only with the \bookmark
command you can at least set a different text for the bookmarks.

You can use them but you don’t have to, the old commands while stay but the new
ones but they are helpful when you want endnotes end the end of each chapter etc.
When you have a simple structure in your document you can use \startsectionlevel
instead of \startchapter, \startsection etc. for your headings because the command
switches always to the next heading (chapter -> section -> subsection).
