* \setuphead and \startchapter request

I would like to use, for example,

\setuphead [chapter] [after={\placecontent\blank}]

But sometimes, I would like to use something like

\startchapter [number=no,incrementnumber=no,after=,
	title={Conclusions of the first part}]

\stopchapter


1. I request to have after=, (and other setup head keywords)
taken into account, or some other mechanism, so as here
not to \placecontent for a specific instance of \startchapter.

2. If I have:
\setuplabeltext [chapter=Chapter ] % with trailing space; blank by default
would there be some way to specify chapter=, (or another mechanism)
to have the Chapter label blank for a specific instance of \startchapter?

Thanks

Alan

You know \starttitle, it’s the unnumbered version of \startchapter.

We have the following key for \setuphead:

- beforesection (called before \startchapter),
- insidesection (called after \startchapter) and
- aftersection (called after \stopchapter)

The easiest way is to create a new heading for this purpose.

Wolfgang,

Thank you for the suggestions.
However, I have tried many such, things...

Yes, of course, but \starttitle does not, by design, add an entry
to the TOC, nor a bookmark. And

\starttitle [title={Conclusions}]
\writetolist[chapter]{}{Conclusions}% works
\bookmark{Conclusions}% Does not work!

is less elegant than

\startchapter [number=no,incrementnumber=no,title={Conclusions}]

(but does have the advantage of suppressing the "Chapter" label.)

You suggest that I use insidesection={\placecontent\blank}
rather than after={\placecontent\blank}. OK, this works.

However, in both cases, the contents get placed after the above
\starttitle (or \startchapter) commands, something that one really does
not want. Alternately, adding \placecontent\blank everywhere else is
sloppy.

I do not really want to create new headings for this purpose,
if I can avoid it, and should be unnecessary.
The suggestion would be for specific instances of \startchapter etc.
to be able to take \setuphead keywords as local definitions.

Is this what you want?

\setuphead[title][incrementnumber=list]
\setuplist[title][width=2em] % default value for chapter entry

\setuphead[chapter][insidesection=\texsetup{chapter:list}]

\startsetups[chapter:list]

  \doif{\structureuservariable{list}}{yes}{\placelist[section]}

\stopsetups

\setupinteraction[state=start]

\placebookmarks[chapter,title]

\starttext

\startfrontmatter

\starttitle[saveinlist=no,title=Content]

\placelist[chapter,title]

\stoptitle

\stopfrontmatter

\startbodymatter

\starttitle[title=This is a \tex{title}]

\input knuth

\stoptitle

\startchapter[title=This is a \tex{chapter}][list=yes]

\startsection[title=Tufte]

\input tufte

\stopsection

\startsection[title=Ward]

\input ward

\stopsection

\stopchapter

\startchapter[title=This is another \tex{chapter}]

\startsection[title=Knuth]

\input knuth

\stopsection

\startsection[title=Zapf]

\input zapf

\stopsection

\stopchapter

\stopbodymatter

\stoptext
