Simplefonts and inherited style

Simplefonts and inherited style

[Joshua Krämer]

Dear list members,

I need a second font in my text for the purpose of mark-up.  This font is 
defined with \definesimplefonttypeface.  If I switch to a font variant 
like bold and afterwards to the second font, the second font doesn't 
inherit this style.  It only works the other way around (switching to the 
second font first, then to another style).  In the following example, the 
whole section title should be typeset in bold, but the part using the 
second font is typeset in the regular style.  How can I make it inherit 
the bold style?

Thank you,
Joshua Krämer

\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setmainfont[dejavuserif]
\definesimplefonttypeface[Secondfont][dejavusans]
\setuphead[section][style={\tf\bf}]

\starttext
\section{One {\Secondfont Two} Three}
\input zapf
\stoptext

Old version of the simplefonts module:

\usemodule[simplefonts]

\setmainfont[DejaVu Serif]
\setsansfont[DejaVu Sans]

\setuphead[section][style={\tf\bf}]

\starttext
\section{One {\ss Two} Three}
\input zapf
\stoptext


New version of the simplefonts module:

\setupfontfamily [serif] [DejaVu Serif]
\setupfontfamily [sans]  [DejaVu Sans]

\setuphead[section][style={\tf\bf}]

\starttext
\section{One {\ss Two} Three}
\input zapf
\stoptext

Dear Wolfgang,

thank you, this does the trick.  I didn't try \setsansfont, because in 
reality I don't use serif and sans fonts but blackletter and roman.  Does 
a more general solution exist?  If not, I will misuse \setsansfont.

By the way, is this new simplefonts version only available in the context 
beta?  I've made an update but still the new commands don't work.

Kind regards,
Joshua Krämer

Even though \rm is normally used for a serif font and \ss for a sans serif
font there is no rule which prevents you from using a blackletter etc. font
with these styles.

The new simplefonts module is part of the core (no external files are
required) and you need a recent beta to have it available.
