Dear all,
Is there, in a book-project, a way to place unnumbered chapters, in casu Acknowledgements and Abstract, in the FrontMatter before the ToC, but still mentioned in the ToC?
(no idea why this would be required)
Thanks in advance for any advice,
Robert Blackstone

Please forget this message. The problem is solved. (I assume this was re-posted because initially I used a wrong email address).

Please use:
\completecontent[criterium=all]
to generate the ToC, and set
\setupcombinedlist
[content]
[list={title,chapter,section,subsection}]
to include the entries you want.

Thank you Wolfgang. This works and it will very likely also work for my project.
I'm afrraid though that I left out an important detail, namely that the ToC itself must be mentioned in the ToC.
What I'm expected to emulate is the following: (with real pagenumbers of course)
CONTENTS
Acknowledgements i
Abstract ii
Contents iii
List of Illusttratiions iv
List of Tables v
Abbreviations and Library sigla vi
Preface vii
Chapter 1 8
Chapter 2 etc.
So my real question should have been: Is there a way to place the ToC in an unnumbered chapter, which should not be at the very beginning of the book?
But you have suggested the answer already: Changing \title{Contents} to \prechapter{Contents} does just that. Clean solution for an, imho, odd request.
Best regards,
Robert Blackstone

Dear all,
Is there, in a book-project, a way to place unnumbered chapters, in casu Acknowledgements and Abstract, in the FrontMatter before the ToC, but still mentioned in the ToC?
(no idea why this would be required)
Thanks in advance for any advice,
Robert Blackstone
