Hello all,

what is the simplest way how to change the horizontal space between the number and the name of a section (chapter, subsection...)? (Migrating from LaTeX to ConTeXt.)

There are two test documents attached -

- t-Sec2.pdf - to see the default view of LaTeX section number/text spacing,

- t-Sec.pdf - to see the same by ConTeXt (i.e. some less h-space).

What is the best (or simplest) way how to adjust this?

I tried to work with stopper and/or separator in \setupheads, but - to be honest - I don't know when they go to an action.

I achieved the required job by defining a new command \MyCmd - but is this the best way? Or are there better options or commands to achieve this? - See the code (and result):

---
\def\MyCmd#1#2{#1\hskip3ex#2}

\setupheads[stopper=STOPPER,separator=SEPARATOR,command=\MyCmd]

% When are the "stopper" and "separator" applied?

\starttext
    \chapter{AAA}
      \section{BBB}
        uuu
\stoptext
---

Cheers,

Lukas
