Hans,

I have the following sample:

    \setuphead[section][alternative=margin]
    \starttext
    \section{afeasdf}
    \input knuth

    \section{afeasfdf}
    \input zapf
    \stoptext

Would it be possible to have value to the "alternative" key that
automatically places the head on the margin? I mean, not only the
number, but the whole title.

Probably this option should allow the user to set head in the inner,
outer, left and right margins.

I know that it should be possible with an extra command, but consider
that "reverse" is also a value for the "alternative",

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

I'll add something

% \definemargindata
%   [margintext:chapter]
%   [margintext:section]

% \defineheadalternative
%   [margintext:chapter]
%   [margintext]
%   [margintext=margintext:chapter]

% \setuphead
%   [chapter]
%   [alternative=margintext:chapter]

\setuphead
   [chapter]
   [alternative=margintext]

that uses the margindata margintext:section but no special rendering 
options because demands can differ

Hans

Many thanks for your implementation, Hans.

I’m looking forward deploying the new feature in next beta.
