Re: resetting footnote counter

[Robert Zydenbos <context@zydenbos.net>]

Pablo's example works well on my machine. So there must be a disturbance at a different level in my complex text – perhaps in my settings:

\setupnotedefinition [footnote] [location=serried, distance=1em, hang=1em]

or

\setupfootnotes[bodyfont={Mainfont,8pt}, width=\textwidth, frameoffset=1em, location=none, way=bychapter]

which in all other respects work fine? ('Mainfont' is my own definition, from a typescript; I also added 'way=bychapter', to no effect.) The only thing that does not happen is the resetting of the note counter.

If I had a command that simply says "the counter named X (=footnote counter) is now 0 again", which I could insert at the beginning of every chapter, the problem would be solved. (Not so elegant, but it would be a solution.)
