[NTG-context] button

\button is defined to jump to a given reference. However, I would like to place a button that can execute a macro to be defined by myself.
Thus for example pushing the button \executebutton{text}{macro} will execute that macro.

Is this available somewhere in ConTeXT? If not, can it be provided in a future update?

yours sincerely
dr. Hans van der Meer

Did you try \button[Options]{Something}[YourJSFunction] ?

I don’t know it that’s limited to a few predefined functions.

see https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Widgets#JavaScript and 
https://source.contextgarden.net/scrn-but.mkvi

Just to be sure: You understand that this works via JavaScript in the 
viewer, only supported by Acrobat and PDF Studio?
