I'm trying to use smallcaps with a font called SquarishSansCT.
According to mtxrun it has smcp as a feature...
$ mtxrun --script font --list --info --pattern=squar
[...]
mtx-fonts | gsub features:
mtx-fonts |
mtx-fonts | feature script languages
mtx-fonts |
mtx-fonts | c2sc grek dflt
mtx-fonts | latn dflt
mtx-fonts | smcp grek dflt
mtx-fonts | latn dflt
mtx-fonts |
...but I can't seem to get that feature to work in this MWE which works for TexGyreSchola.
\definefontfeature [smallcaps] [always] [smcp=yes]
\definefontsynonym [Squar] [name:SquarishSansCT-Regular] [features=smallcaps]
\definefontsynonym [Schola] [name:texgyreschola-regular] [features=smallcaps]
\definefont [chapterTitle] [Squar at 18pt]
\definefont [anotherTitle] [Schola at 18pt]
\starttext
{\chapterTitle A Chapter Title}
\par
{\anotherTitle A Chapter Title}
\stoptext
Have I missed something or is it the font?

Found it from an old email of Wolfgang's in the archive - not sure why I didn't see it before.
Solution is to use:
\definefontfeature[latin-smallcaps][smallcaps][script=latn]
\definefontsynonym [Squar] [name:SquarishSansCT-Regular] [features=latin-smallcaps]
instead of the first two lines in my example below.
