Chapter heading with rules

Chapter heading with rules

[jbf]

Have achieved a Chapter title with rules either side (see below - not an 
original invention!) but I want the chapter number to be part of 'My 
Chapter Title'; instead, the following MWE means it comes before the 
ChapterLeftRule. I know I can do it by actually putting the number 
before My Chapter title (e.g. 1 My Chapter Title), since the proper 
numbered version still appears in the TOC, but my preference would be to 
include a command in the \setuphead, if possible (so long as it still 
allows the numbered chapter to appear in the TOC of course). Possible?

\definefiller
   [ChapterRule]
   [alternative=rule,
    color=gray,
    height=0.8ex,
    depth=-0.6ex]

\definefiller
   [ChapterLeftRule]
   [ChapterRule]
   [left=\zerowidthnobreakspace,
    right=\quad]

\definefiller
   [ChapterRightRule]
   [ChapterRule]
   [left=\quad,
    right=\zerowidthnobreakspace]

\setuphead
   [chapter]
   [%align=middle,
    textstyle={\setcharactercasing[WORD]\ssa},
textcommand=\groupedcommand{\filler[ChapterLeftRule]}{\filler[ChapterRightRule]}]

\starttext

\chapter{My Chapter Title}

\stoptext

Hi Julian,

Indeed you can acchieve what you want, but it is better to define a command which takes care of the number and the title of the chapter at the same time (as in \ myChapterCommand below).

%% begin example.tex
\definefiller[ChapterRule]
	[alternative=rule,
	color=gray,
	height=0.8ex,
	depth=-0.6ex]

\definefiller[ChapterLeftRule]
	[ChapterRule]
	[left=\zerowidthnobreakspace,
	right=\quad]

\definefiller[ChapterRightRule]
	[ChapterRule]
	[left=\quad,
	right=\zerowidthnobreakspace]
	
\define[2]\myChapterCommand{%
	\midaligned{{\filler[ChapterLeftRule]}#1.~#2{\filler[ChapterRightRule]}}
	}

\setuphead[chapter]
	[textstyle={\setcharactercasing[WORD]\ssa},
	command=\myChapterCommand]

\starttext

\startchapter[title={My Chapter Title}]
\input knuth.tex
\stopchapter

\stoptext

%% end example.tex
