Re: [NTG-context] Chapter number retrieval

Hi, There is a good overview of accessible variables at: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/134474/context-part-chapter-section-... Maybe you want something like this? \starttext \setuphead[chapter][number=no] \startchapter[title={My Chapter}] Hello world! \startMPcode label("\currentstructurelistnumber\ \currentstructuretitle", origin); draw fullcircle scaled 3cm; \stopMPcode \stopchapter \stoptext Adam On Mon, Mar 21, 2022 at 11:46 PM jbf via ntg-context wrote:

Willi, offlist: Have to admit I didn't actually try your own comment, but if it doesn't work, I'll be interested in the eventual answer. I recently had to do something similar for the TOC, and Hraban pointed me to \currentlistentrynumber. There probably has to be a command along those lines (which led me to your 2011 comment, sorry 😁) for non-list retrieval. \structurenumber? \currentstructurenumber? Something along those lines? There seem to be a number of these but as yet undocumented as far as I can see.

Hi Julian,

:-) I am confronted with my own comments :-)

However, this is precisely what I am using in my attempt to get this hidden number. But no it does not appear…

Thank you! Willi

Willi,

I see a comment by yourself back in 2011 at https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Last_Head_Number

I wonder if this helps?

Hello everybody!

I would like to typeset the chapter title without number in the text. — However I still would need to retrieve the number for a calculation in a MetaFun graphic. I assume, that even though this number is not typeset, it is kept in the background. How to retrieve it?

Kind regards

Willi
