In typesetting my endnotes with \placenotes[endnote] I seem unable to unfluence the text characteristics.I tried things like
(1) \setupnotes[endnote][textcolor=blue]
(2) changed fonts before the \ bgroup\bf\placenote\egroup call
(3)
\startsetups[setups:endnotes]
\setupwhitespace[0pt]
\stopsetups
% textstyle influences endnotemarker in the text.
\setupnote[endnote][textcommand=\hifnmarker,before=\directsetup{setups:endnotes}]
(4) \setupnotes[endnote][bodyfont=italic]
Where (3) made a difference in linespacing, nothing else does.
How can one determine the text characteristics of the endnotes?
