resetting footnote counter

resetting footnote counter

[Robert Zydenbos]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1642 bytes --]

What I've done is the following: I've made a zip archive (see attachment) with a few relevant files – the two first files that will be a part of the book: preface.tex and how-to-use.tex, together with an environment file manual-environment-xasia.tex with a lot of settings, and the starting file sample.tex which puts everything together.

This does not need odd things like exotic fonts, and it does not contain uncommon tables etc. I've changed the main font to TeX Gyre Termes, which all of us have (so I assume, since it comes with the major TeX distributions), so there should be no problems there either; but if there is an error message, you can comment out line 12 in manual-environment-xasia.tex and de-comment line 13 to turn the font into Times (or you can change the name of the font to anything you have on your computer). 

Right now I am using an iMac with the latest OS installed.

The 'footnotes' will be placed at the end of the chapters (i.e., they will be endnotes).

If you run sample.tex through ConTeXt and XeTeX (i.e., MkII) and look at the final page, you will see that the footnote / endnote marker has not been reset.

You disable the chapter counter with

    \setuphead [chapter] [incrementnumber=no]

which prevents the reset of the footnote counter.

Can you post a minimal example. Because the following works in MKII 
(counter reset at each chapter)

\setupfootnotes[way=bychapter]

\starttext
\dorecurse{5}
{\chapter{New Chapter}
   \dorecurse{5}{\input ward\footnote{A quote by ward}}}
\stoptext

The following also works with the counter reset at each section:

\setupfootnotes[way=bysection]

\starttext
\dorecurse{5}
{\section{New Chapter}
   \dorecurse{5}{\input ward\footnote{A quote by ward}}}
\stoptext


and the following works with the footnote reset at each page:

\setupfootnotes[way=bypage]

\starttext
\dorecurse{5}
{\section{New Chapter}
   \dorecurse{5}{\input ward\footnote{A quote by ward}}}
\stoptext

All examples were run using:

ConTeXt  ver: 2018.04.04 00:51 MKII  fmt: 2018.7.3  int: english/english

and the documents were compiled using

texexec --xetex filename

Re: resetting footnote counter

[Robert Zydenbos]

Pablo's example works well on my machine. So there must be a disturbance at a different level in my complex text – perhaps in my settings:

\setupnotedefinition [footnote] [location=serried, distance=1em, hang=1em]

or

\setupfootnotes[bodyfont={Mainfont,8pt}, width=\textwidth, frameoffset=1em, location=none, way=bychapter]

which in all other respects work fine? ('Mainfont' is my own definition, from a typescript; I also added 'way=bychapter', to no effect.) The only thing that does not happen is the resetting of the note counter.

If I had a command that simply says "the counter named X (=footnote counter) is now 0 again", which I could insert at the beginning of every chapter, the problem would be solved. (Not so elegant, but it would be a solution.)

Indeed, mkiv is different ... in fact notes are a complex mechanism:

- rendering in line (the marker)
- rendering the text (anywhere)
- interaction with the page builder (depending on kind)
- stacking multiple classes
- line notes (refering to lien numbers)

etc. Most of what is in mkii is there in mkiv but in mkiv the textual 
rendering has been split and is called notation (on top of a generalized 
mechanism that also does descriptions, enumerations and more).

The complication is that we need to group settings for (1) the markers, 
(2) the text, (3) the overall mechanism. Of course inheritance also 
kicks in then.

\setupnotation[footnote][way=bychapter]

\starttext
\dorecurse{5}
{\startchapter[title=New Chapter]
   \dorecurse{5}{\input ward\footnote{A quote by ward}}
\stopchapter}
\stoptext

With regard to your other thread about documentation of footnotes, the way 
I understand it is that \setupnotation is used to configure how the actual 
footnote is displayed and setupnotation has similar options to 
\setupdescription. So, alternative=serried corresponds to a similar option 
for descriptions.

Note that the above is for MkIV. For MkII, I think that you need 
\setupfootnotes insted of \setupnotation[footnote].

Weird, this works for me (with and without XeTeX):

    \setuppapersize[A8]
    \setupnote[footnote][way=bychapter]
    \starttext
    \chapter{Chapter}
    \dorecurse{2}{Text\footnote{Footnote.}}

Re: resetting footnote counter

Sorry, neither of these work (MkII with XeTeX). I get no error messages with Pablo's suggestion, but not the desired result either.

Perhaps I need a very primitive command that I can insert at the beginning of every chapter.

Taco,

I’m afraid Robert needs that for MkII (although he didn‘t mention it).

Robert,

your command reads:

    \setupfootnotes[way=bychapter]

By default, footnote numbering seems to be reset by part.

Like this (and I also agree that footnote/endnote setup is a bit complicated, but of course the concept is already quite complicated itself):

\setupnotation[endnote][way=bychapter]

\starttext

\chapter{One}

\dorecurse{20}{\input knuth\endnote{Endnote}}

\placenotes[endnote]

\chapter{Two}

\dorecurse{20}{\input knuth\endnote{Endnote}}

\placenotes[endnote]

\stoptext


Best wishes,

Taco

resetting footnote counter

[Robert Zydenbos]

A simple footnote question this time. I would like to print endnotes at the end of every chapter in my book, and then reset the footnote counter so that in the next chapter the first note will be ‘1’ again. I suppose this should be done by means of \setupfootnotes – but with which parameter?

Robert
