It is a long time since I used ConTeXt. I am starting again.
I have the following code:
\setvariables[meta][type=cecil]
\if\getvariable{meta}{type}=cecil
\setvariables[meta][
name={Cecil Westerhof},
]
\setvariables[layout][
header=0mm,
]
\fi
But that does not work.
For the conditional I also tried:
\ifx\getvariable{meta}{type}\cecil
But that does not work either.
What is the correct way to define the comparison?

That works. In my case I use a \doif. Is there also something like a switch statement? If not I could use a nested \doifelse. -- Cecil Westerhof -- Cecil Westerhof ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
