TOC: Continous chapter numbering

TOC: Continous chapter numbering

[Jeff Smith]

Hi again all,

I'm plunging deep into ConTeXt nowadays so I have a few more questions
in store, and here's one below. But I have to repeat, ConTeXt is an
amazing thing for which I'm truly grateful. I'm currently using it to
typeset a complex etymological dictionary at my job, and my doctoral
dissertation as well, and I have absolutely *no* idea what I would do
without it (what, MS Word? perish the thought!)!

So, right now I'm exploring the table of content possibilities. I was
wondering if it was possible to use a continuous chapter numbering
throughout a whole document, across several parts. So, for example,
I'd have chapters 1, 2, 3, 4 in part 1, and chapters 5, 6, 7, 8 in
part 2, and so on.

Thanks again!
Jeff

You asked one of ConTeXt's horribles configurations (hidden and only
documented in old list questions and answers)

% continue page number over parts and remove part number
%\setuppagenumbering[way=bytext,partnumber=no]

% continue chapter numberind over parts
\setuphead[part][resetnumber=no]

% make a part header
%\setuphead[part][placehead=yes]

\starttext
\dorecurse{4}
  {\part{Part}
   \dorecurse{4}
     {\chapter{Chapter}}}
\stoptext
