Pagenumbers and labels

Pagenumbers and labels

[Idris Samawi Hamid]

Dear syndicate,

Three questions (test file attached):

1. A pagenumbering problem: I have

\setuppagenumbering[way=bytext]

Good: The page numbers are continuous and do not restart with each new  
part;

Bad:  The page numbers are still prefaced by the part number, e.g.

1-24, 1-25, 2-26, 2-27 etc.

I want, rather, just 24, 25, 26, 27 etc....


2. I want the chapter numerals to ignore the part, so I get

Part 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4.


3. I would to keep "Part 1" "Part 2" in the TOC, but no numeral at all in  
the main text. I got rid of the "Part" label in the main text, but not the  
numeral.

incrementnumber=no

works but then the TOC loses the "Part"s altogether.

Thnx in advance

Best
Idris

It sounds to me like you only need the 'appearance' of
Parts to be present, instead of the 'actual' divisions.

If so, you could consider defining your own '\part' macro that
does a \writetolist. You can do that with something as simple as
this:

   \newcount\mypart
   \def\part#1{\page[right] \advance\mypart 1
      \expanded{\writetolist[part]{\the\mypart}{#1}}}

Cheers, Taco

doesn't partnumber=no work?

Ahh! Now I understand what the italics `sectionnumber' key means-)

\setuppagenumbering[way=bytext,partnumber=no]

In any case, it does not work-(
Yes, the pagenumbering works but the TOC still has the part numbers. I  
also tried

\definecombinedlist[summary][part,chapter][textstyle=\tf,partnumber=no]

but still, partnumerals in the TOC. Is this a bug?

Thank you for the tip. I really need to practice low-level TeX coding  
more, ConTeXt has made me lazy...

Are there any manuals for with clear examples explaining the proper use of  
\expanded, \unexpanded, etc.?

:-)))

All the best
Idris

Hi,

no, not really. The low-level TeX is in the TeXbook, of course,
but the context API macros are not documented yet outside
the source.

> ... clear examples 

the context source contains lots of examples of API use. :-)

Hopefully, eventually there will be a manual. This is the
"API project" Hans, Patrick and I sometimes talk about.
It is somehow rather hard to get it off the ground. :-(
