Many thanks. Question: Is this use of setups now the "official" or preferred way to handle footnote typography options? On the surface, it appears to be overkill. For the declaration
\setupdirections[bidi=global]
shouldn't that mean that bidi is applied, well, globally?
The same holds for \setupalign[verytolerant], for example, that does not get applied to a (figure,table) caption... These environments (captions, footnotes, ...) inherit their settings and then live independently. Alan
