Three basic questions on alignment

Three basic questions on alignment

[Steffen Wolfrum]

May I add something to the previous "Alignment" thread?

I have 3 cases where the usual command "align=left|right|... doesn't work:


1) \setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided,location={header,inmargin}]

The page number is aligned left on a right page and vice versa. 
How can I change this to align left on left pages and right on right pages?
(So the page number doesn't rag when flipping from page 1 to 100)


2) \setupheader[style=\MyStyle] \setupheadertexts[section][][][chapter]

The chapter title behaves like the pagenumber. How can I change the alignment from inner to outer here?


3) \setupfootnotedefinition[location=inleft]

The footnote's numbers here are aligned left, both on the left and the right page.
What would be the command to align them right, with a constant distant to the note's text?



In all cases I couldn't use align=left|right|..., so I guess there must be the same other syntax suitable for all three?

Does anybody has an idea?

Grazie, Steffen

Could you please be more verbose where exaclty you want the
pagenumber? Please check with 

\setuppagenumbering 
     [alternative=doublesided,
      location={header,inmargin}]
\showframe
\starttext
\dorecurse{40}{\input tufte }
\stoptext

where and how should the 1 be aligned? You want it in the margin, but
how far to the right?

outer of what? 


\setuppagenumbering 
     [alternative=doublesided,
      location={header,inmargin}]
\setupheadertexts[section][][][chapter]
\showframe
\starttext
\dorecurse{10}{\chapter{chaptertitle}
        \input tufte 
        \dorecurse{5}{\section{crazy section} 
        \input tufte }}
\stoptext

Sorry, can't help you here. don't know anything about footnotes.
Please provide an example.


And a note: please provide minimal but complete (!!!) examples. It
saves much time on giving me (and others) an idea of what you want.
And be more specific about inner/outer and alignment. 

To emphasize the importance (for me) once again:

Hi,

my solution would be like this:

\setupheadertexts[][section][chapter][] % that wasn't too difficult o)

>2) \setupheader[style=\MyStyle] \setupheadertexts[section][][][chapter]
>

\def\mypagenumber#1{\inframed[width=\marginwidth,frame=on,align={\doifoddpageelse{left}{right}}]{#1}}
\setuppagenumbering [command=\mypagenumber,alternative=doublesided,location={header,inmargin}]


>3) \setupfootnotedefinition[location=inleft]
>

\def\myFNnumber#1{\inframed[width=20pt,offset=.0em,frame=on,align=right]{#1}}
\setupfootnotedefinition[command=\myFNnumber,location=left]


Probably not very elaborated - but it's working.
