Hi,
In ConTeXt MKIV, there are selectors (\defineselector, \select). In ConTeXt
LMTX, they are gone.
In LMTX, how can I achieve the following without using selectors:
(Different heading and reference texts for descriptions)
\defineselector[sel][max=2, n=2]
\definedescription[desc][headcommand={\setupselector[sel][n=1]}]
\starttext
\startdesc[title={\select{sel}{Long title}{Short}}, reference=desc]
\input jojomayer
\stopdesc
\about[desc]
\stoptext
Any help is welcome!
Cheers,
Christoph

Hm, I'll check it.

Actually, what you want is:
\definedescription
[desc]
\starttext
\startdesc[title={Long title},reference=foo,referencetext={Short
Title}]
\input jojomayer
\stopdesc
\about[foo]
\stoptext
So I'll add that (after all, occasionally we need to add some
functionality in order to indicate progress.)

Great! That would be a good solution for me.
Thanks,

Thank you for the implementation, Hans!
A small issue: When omitting the referencetext, then the shown text is now
something like "248>desc:referencetext".
MWE:
\definedescription[desc]
\starttext
\startdesc[title=Long title, reference=foo]%, referencetext=Short title]
\input jojomayer
\stopdesc
\about[foo]
\stoptext
For backward compatibility, it might be better to use the title as a
default for the reference test.
Cheers,
Christoph
