Solved: I can now use the usual \footnote{...} command and the footnote does not disappear. Unsolved: All the footnotes in the table still appear on the last page of a multi-page table instead of the actual page where they are written. To illustrate the latter problem I have a new MWE. The footnote mark in the first table row receives a footnote text on the second page - it should be on the first page. Does anybody have a solution to this? Is it not supported? (I have ConTeXt Version 2015.05.03 21:46) Thank you for any feedback, Christoph MWE: \starttext \startlocalfootnotes \placetable[split][]{}{ \bTABLE \bTR \bTD This \eTD \bTD That \footnote{This footnote should appear on page 1.} \eTD \eTR \dorecurse{50}{\bTR \bTD This \eTD \bTD That \eTD \eTR} \eTABLE} \placelocalfootnotes \stoplocalfootnotes \stoptext

Multi-page (split) natural tables and footnotes
by Christoph Reller 07 Jun '15

07 Jun '15

Hi, How can I get footnotes working with split tables? Is this not supported? The workaround with \note[...] \footnotetext[...]{...} can only be used to place footnotes on the first or on the last page of the table. For a long multi-page table this is not satisfactory. The wiki mentions using \automigrateinserts, but it has no effect here. Any help is welcome! Cheers, Christoph MWE: \automigrateinserts \starttext \placetable[split][]{}{ \bTABLE \bTR \bTD This \eTD \bTD That. \footnote{This footnote disappears.} \note[working] \eTD \eTR \eTABLE} \footnotetext[working]{This footnote works.} \stoptext

Difference between \startmakeup and \startstandardmakeup
by John Culleton 06 Jun '15

06 Jun '15

I have been using \startstandardmakeup etc. for some years now. I note on the wiki that there is a command \startmakeup also. It is not covered in my copy of the Manual. What are the principal diferences between the two? -- John Culleton Wexford Press Book layout, typesetting and Indexing Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html

Setup footnotes mark placement
by Michał Goliński 05 Jun '15

05 Jun '15

Dear list, in the following file: \setupinteraction[ state=start, focus=standard ] \definepapersize[kindle][width=90mm,height=117mm] \setuppapersize[kindle][kindle] \setuplayout[ backspace=2mm, topspace=2mm, header=0mm, footer=0mm, width=86mm, height=113mm ] \starttext a\footnote{b} \stoptext footnote mark in the footer is not visible because of the very narrow backspace (it is placed "off-paper"). Is it possible to make the mark visible without making the backspace broader? Many thanks for your help, M. Goliński

footnote link destinations
by Pablo Rodriguez 03 Jun '15

03 Jun '15

Hans, I have the following sample: \setupinteraction[state=start, focus=standard] \starttext \completecontent \dorecurse{10}{\chapter{Chapter 1} a\footnote{b}} \stoptext Destination for footnote links are always /Fit, although the other link destinations may be different (in the sample above /XYZ). Would it be possible that we check now that footnote links have the same destinations as the other links in the rest of the document? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Blank line before placehead=empty
by Kate F 02 Jun '15

02 Jun '15

Hi, I have a document where I'm showing chapter titles in headers, rather than on the page in the usual place in the body text area. Using placehead=empty, what causes the blank line before the text? Is there a way to suppress it? I see there's no line when specifying placehead=no, but I want the chapter heading to appear in my TOC, so that's why I'm using placehead=empty. Or maybe there's another way to add something to the TOC without showing anything in the document. \setuphead[chapter][placehead=empty] % has an unwanted blank line %\setuphead[chapter][placehead=no] % no blank line \showgrid \showstruts \starttext \startchapter[title={Something}] cows cows hasselt \stopchapter \stoptext Thank you, -- Kate

Updated XML interface file?
by Paul Mazaitis 02 Jun '15

02 Jun '15

Hello, list! At one point, it looks like there was an (automatically?) generated XML file of the ConTeXt user interface; the most recent version of this that I can find is from 2006, and appears (the English version, anyway) to be out of date. Is there a more recent version of this available? And, if not: could there be? Thanks! -Paul
