\blank[reset] in MkIV

\blank[reset] in MkIV

[Ogam]

Hi,

The command \blank[reset] works in MkII but not in MkIV. Is it a bug, or 
has the keyword "reset" been changed?

Stoppers in captions also appear in references

[maggyero]

Hi,

There is a problem with the references to figures (command \in[...]) 
when you put a stopper for the captions: the stopper also appears in the 
references. Here is a minimal example:

\starttext

\setupcaptions[numberstopper=\quad\emdash]

\placefigure[][cow]{A cow}{\externalfigure[cow]}

This is the figure \in[cow].

\stoptext

How to avoid that?

Two stopper bugs (tables of contents and head titles)

[maggyero]

Hi,

I've noticed two bugs (I think) with stoppers:

1) Stoppers in table of contents
When you set stopper=~ in \setuplist the stopper also appears for 
unnumbered heads of the table of contents (chapters, sections etc. that 
are in frontmatter and backmatter).

2) Stoppers in head titles
When you set stopper=~ in \setuphead it has no effect. Apparently all 
spaces (\,| |~|\ |\quad|\qquad) are ignored here, because when you set 
stopper=abc it works.

Will Hans fix these two bugs in next betas?

Controlling the space between the number and the title in heads

[maggyero]

Hi,

How to control the space between the number and the title in heads? By 
default it seems there is a space of about 1 em. I want to change that 
space and set a normal space instead (a word space), since I've put a 
dot stopper after the numbers (\setupheads[stopper=.]). Example:

1.     Title (what I get)
1. Title     (what I want)

% if you know how to get the width of 1 space:
\setuphead[section][stopper=., distance=WidthOf1Space]

% if you don't know, workaround:
\setuphead[section][stopper=.~\strut, distance=0pt]

\starttext
\startsection[title=test]
  bla
\stopsection
\stoptext

Related question: is there a macro, that returns the width of some
content, so that one can use "distance=\widthof{ }"?

distance=\spaceamount

Thanks! So it seems, that there is nothing like that in the core.

Little feature request: could you add something like
\widthof{}, \heightof{}, \depthof{} and \heightanddepthof{}
to the core?
