Hi,
I was curious about the possibility of handling general formatting settings
(e.g., page layout, headers and footers, page numbering, alignment, default
body font assignment, etc.) conditionally for front, body, and back matter
using modes. According to the wiki page at
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modes, this should be doable with blocks
like \startmode[*frontpart] ... \stopmode, but even in the following
minimal example, the conditional formatting isn't getting applied:
```
\startmode[*frontpart]
\setupbodyfont[modern, 12pt]
\stopmode
\startmode[*bodypart]
\setupbodyfont[pagella, 12pt]
\stopmode
\startmode[*backpart]
\setupbodyfont[termes, 12pt]
\stopmode
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\input knuth\par
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
\input knuth\par
\stopbodymatter
\startbackmatter
\input knuth\par
\stopbackmatter
\stoptext
```
Is there something obvious that I'm missing? Or is there a different
recommended approach to conditional formatting by front/body/back matter
division?
Thank you!
Joey

Hi Joey,
the command is just different:
\startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart]
\setupbodyfont[modern]
\stopsectionblockenvironment
\startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart]
\setupbodyfont[pagella]
\stopsectionblockenvironment
\startsectionblockenvironment[backpart]
\setupbodyfont[termes]
\stopsectionblockenvironment
\startsectionblockenvironment[appendix]
\setupbodyfont[helvetica]
\stopsectionblockenvironment
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\input knuth\par
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
\input knuth\par
\stopbodymatter
\startbackmatter
\input knuth\par
\stopbackmatter
\startappendices
\input knuth\par
\stopappendices
\stoptext
I hope it helps,
Pablo
