Hi again,
I'm using simplefonts (TeX Live 2013 version) and I have a main font:
\setmainfont[Gentium Book Basic]
and I can set a fallback for it,
\setmainfontfallback[Gentium Plus][range={ipaextensions}, force=yes,
rscale=auto]
and that works.
But then I have another font for the title:
\definesimplefont[titleface][Gentium Basic][size=40pt]
How do I set a fallback for it?
After looking at the source code for simplefonts, I tried:
% undefined cs: \definesimplefontfallback[titleface][Gentium
Plus][range={ipaextensions}, force=yes, rscale=auto]
% undefined cs: \fontfallback[titleface][Gentium
Plus][range={ipaextensions}, force=yes, rscale=auto]
% undefined cs: \definefallbackfont[titleface][Gentium
Plus][range={ipaextensions}, force=yes, rscale=auto]
But they all gave "undefined control sequence" errors.
I can work around the problem by setting the main font before the title,
using the main font for the title, and then changing the main font after
the title is done. But that seems kludgy.
Thanks,
Lars

There is no support for this with the old version of the module.

For posterity, here is how I worked around it:
\usemodule[simplefonts]
% The main font for text:
\setmainfont[Gentium Book Basic]
\setmainfontfallback[Gentium Plus][range={ipaextensions}, force=yes,
rscale=auto]
% The font for the title:
\def\titlefont{Gentium Basic}
\starttext
% Temporarily change the main font, while keeping the main font fallback:
{ \setmainfont[\titlefont] \switchtobodyfont[40pt] Title with a fancy
ɠlyph }
% Back to our previously defined main font:
Body text ...
\stoptext
Lars
