No, but you can combine \inmargin and a counter: \usemodule[annotation] \define[2]\SidenoteCommand {\rawnumber[sidenote]% \inright{#1: #2}} \defineannotation [sidenote] [alternative=command, command=\SidenoteCommand, number=yes] \starttext text text\sidenote{this is a note} text text \input knuth text text\sidenote{this is a note} text text \stoptext Wolfgang ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

Is there a way to make the note continuing on the next page if it doesn't fit? No, margin texts are unbreakable blocks. When you many side notes with lots of text it’s better to use a layout with a wider margin and a narrower textblock, before you do this you can try “\inmargin[stack=yes]{…}” in the definition of the side note command.

I will adjust my text flow "manually" if necessary as I only have a couple of pages to deal with. While I was searching for an answer in the mailing list archive I found this email: [NTG-context] Flowfram-like behavior? http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20110706.133155.c488c215.en.html I think such a feature would have been great here, and I was wondering if there was any plan for this in the future?

There is an experimental stream feature but I haven't looked into that one for a while.
