Hi list,
I am trying to achieve a layout where there is a brief line above the
bottom-centered page number (of a double-sided document). I am able to
achieve the centered bottom-located page number easily and obviously
enough with:
\setuppagenumbering
[alternative=doublesided,location={footer,middle}]
\setupfooter
[style=bold]
And I was able to achieve a result with a short line above where the
page number should be - but by adopting the solution below I have now
lost the page number.
\setuppagenumbering
[alternative=doublesided,location={footer,middle}]
\setupfootertexts[{\framed[frame=off,topframe=on,width=.5\textwidth]}]
So then I thought that having left out any reference to page numbers I
had better put it in, so I added [pagenumber] to the above, but I ended
up with two page numbers, one centered, the other to the inner or outer
margins (depending on recto/verso), and the line was likewise to the
right or left of the centred number. So clearly not what I want.
Maybe the solution lies with some combination of the above I haven't
thought of, or maybe there is another solution altogether. Any thoughts?
Julian

You forgot the braces for the argument of \framed.

1. Add a rule at the top of the footer.
\setuppagenumbering
[location=footer]
\setupfooter
[text]
[before=\hrule]
\starttext
\page[dummy]
\stoptext
2. Put the page number in a frame (preferred method).
\setuppagenumbering
[location=]
\setupfootertexts
[{\framed[width=max,frame=off,topframe=on]{\pagenumber}}]
\starttext
\page[dummy]
\stoptext

Thanks Wolfgang. It seems I was almost there, but had forgotten the
braces for \pagenumber! I am grateful for the observation. \framed is
definitely the preferred solution.
