How to use local setups in selected components of a project only

How to use local setups in selected components of a project only

[Elias Oltmanns]

Hi all,

it has been suggested on this list before, that people should use modes
instead of \localenvironment and friends. Unfortunately, I don't seem to
get either of them working as expected. Consider the following example:

% project.tex
\startproject project
\environment environ
\component compa
\component compb
\stopproject


% environ.tex
\startenvironment environ
% global setups
% ...
\startmode[compa]
\setuphead[section][number=no]
\stopmode
\stopenvironment


% localenv.tex
\startlocalenvironment [compa]
\setuphead[section][number=no]
\stoplocalenvironment


% compa.tex
\startcomponent compa
%\enablemode[compa]
\project project
\localenvironment localenv

\section{First section}
Some text

%\disablemode[compa]
\stopcomponent


% compb.tex
\startcomponent compb
\project project

\section{Second section}
More text
\stopcomponent


Compiling project.tex results in both sections being unnumbered.
Compiling just compb.tex yields the expected result. Apparently, the
setups of localenv stay in effect for all components processed
subsequently.

Commenting out \localenvironment and uncommenting \enablemode /
\disablemode in compa.tex, however, does not solve the problem either:
When I compile just compa.tex, everything works as expected. Compiling
preject.tex, however, results in all sections being numbered. Obviously,
the call to \enablemode comes too late.

What is the recommended approach to such a problem? Do I have to undo
local setups manually at the end of a component?

Thanks in advance for any advice,

Elias

indeed, local is not local in the sense of grouped, it just permits 
nesting ; you need to use grouping to localize settings

grouping
