Italic page number.

Italic page number.

[john Culleton]

IMO the following code should result in an italic iii on the
contents page. Instead I get a roman 1.
-------------------
\startfrontmatter
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,conversion=romannumerals]
\setuppagenumber[number=iii]
\setuppagenumber[state=start]
\completecontent
------------------------------
I have tried variations such as a single \setupagenumber with two
parameters, using \page[iii] instead and so on. 

This ought to be a smple task: start page numbering on the
contents page with iii. But I haven't mastered it yet.

\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]

% You can use this instead of \setuppagenumbering[numberconversion=romannumerals]
% to set the conversion of the pagenumber outside of the sectionblock environment,
% the first argument takes the name of the conversion which is applied to the
% userpage counter with \setupcounter[userpage][numberconversionset=pagenumber].
%
% You can set a conversion for a certain sectionblock when you write the name
% of the block before the name of the conversion set separated by a “:”.
%
%\defineconversionset[frontpart:pagenumber][][romannumerals]

\startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart]

\setuppagenumbering[numberconversion=romannumerals]

\setcounter[userpage][3]

\stopsectionblockenvironment

\startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart]

\setcounter[userpage][1]

\stopsectionblockenvironment

\starttext

\startfrontmatter

\completecontent

\stopfrontmatter

\startbodymatter

\dorecurse{100}
  {\chapter{Chapter #1}
   \dorecurse{5}
     {\section{Section #1.##1}}}

\stoptext

BTW: Send next time a complete minimal example.

This has to be (wrong command for the conversion and missing style for the numbers):

\setuppagenumbering [style=italic]
\setupuserpagenumber[numberconversion=romannumerals] % you can also use \setuppagenumber which is a synonym for \setupuserpagenumber

Thanks very much. Playing with your code I discovered that if I use:
------------------------------------------------------------
 \defineconversionset[frontpart:pagenumber][][romannumerals]
-------------------------------------------------------------
in your example then the following statement is not needed
---------------------------------------------------------
\setuppagenumbering[numberconversion=romannumerals]
----------------------------------------------------

but not vice versa. So the last statement quoted is defective in some
way or so it seems to me. In any case I now have code that works. Is
the command \defineconversionset documented anywhere or do I have to dig
into the macro code?

See my other mail for the correct usage of numberconversion.

You can find a explanation of the command in the mail archive but you have
to look for old name \definestructureconverionset.
