footnote numbering

footnote numbering

[Horacio Suarez]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 548 bytes --]

hello

I insist in a question:

I have:

\setupfootnotes[way=bychapter]

but it doesn´t restart the footnote numbering at chapter.

But if I write:

\setupfootnotes[way=bysection]

It does restart each \section.

Is the sintax ok?

What i´m doing wrong?

The last book i´ve fix it inseriting fake and empty chapters, but now it 
doesn´t work.

Please help!

Play with this:

==============================================
% output=pdf interface=en

\starttext

  Test.\footnote{Test}

  Test.\footnote{Test}

  \resetnumber[footnote]

  Test.\footnote{Test}

  Test.\footnote{Test}

  \incrementnumber[footnote]

  Test.\footnote{Test}

  Test.\footnote{Test}

  \decrementnumber[footnote]
  \decrementnumber[footnote]
  \decrementnumber[footnote]

  Test.\footnote{Test}

  Test.\footnote{Test}

\stoptext
==============================================

Hans, can one add an option like 
\decrementnumber[2][footnote]
to subract 2 instead of declaring the command three times?

Best

Hi all,

can someone tell me, how to set the counter of footnotes (e.g., one back,
or to zero)?

With many thanks

i still have to interface the number macros

\ifx\resetnumber\undefined \let\resetnumber\resetnummer \fi

\resetnumber[footnote]

Since it is stated in the manual to look at core-not.tex, I did so
and found the command \resetnummer[...]. I have no idea if this is ok
to use (but I guess it is not, since Hans always comes up with a
better solution ;->) but here is the simple hack anyway:

\setupfootnotes[conversion=romannumerals]
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
Some text\footnote{interesting}.
\stopfrontmatter 
\resetnummer[footnote]
\setupfootnotes[conversion=numbers]
\startbodymatter
Some text\footnote{interesting}.
\stopbodymatter 
\startbackmatter
Some text\footnote{interesting}.
\stopbackmatter
\stoptext

Then give this a try:

\setupfootnotes[conversion=romannumerals,way=bypart]
\starttext
\part {one}
Some text\footnote{interesting}.
\part {two}
\setupfootnotes[conversion=numbers]
Some text\footnote{interesting}.
\part {three}
Some text\footnote{interesting}.
\stoptext

Footnote numbering

[cohsb]

Hi,

is there a possibility to restart the numbering of footnotes? (i.e. i, ii,
iii,... in the front matter, and then 1,2,3... in the body). I could switch to
the roman numerals quite easily but I could not manage to let the new
numbering start at 1. I also tried to use parts for that, which just led to funny
page numbers but did not have any influence on the footnote numbering at all.

Perhaps somebody knows a simple solution?

Many thanks and cheers, Chris.
