Hi there,
I am a newbie, and have *seem* to have discovered that
\setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided] generates a blank page
between chapters.
\setupheadertexts[chapter]
\setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided,location={header,inmargin}]
\starttext
\startchapter[title={October 2000}]
Blah One
\stopchapter
\startchapter[title={November 2000}]
Blah Two
\stopchapter
\stoptext
This produces a PDF in TeXworks containing 4 pages:
- Page 1 with a header an 'October 2000' header and 'Blah One' content
- Page 2 with a header an 'October 2000' header only.
- Page 3 with a header an 'November 2000' header and 'Blah Two' content
- Page 4 which is completely blank
If I remove the \setuppagenumbering line the PDF contains just two pages,
with the expected content.
I'm using "ConTeXt ver: 2019.10.11 15:47 MKIV beta fmt: 2019.10.25 int:
english/english"
Am I doing something wrong, or is this just a bug?
Thanks for your help. ConTeXt is making my life *much* easier right now!
Kerry

With \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] you get a doublesided
document
with left and right pages. The default setting for chapters is to start
always on a right page
which can lead to empty left pages.
The normal layout are single sided document
(\setuppagenumbering[alternative=singlesided])
with right pages only which can't lead to empty pages unless you add an
extra check at the
begin of each chapter.
There is also a third mode which creates the same layout on each page
but you can
checl for left and right pages, this mode is enabled with
\setuppagenumber[alternative={singlesided,doublesided}].

What Wolfgang said, and you probably want
\setuphead[chapter][page=yes] % or "no", but not "right"
see https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setuphead
and https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/page
