It is not clear as yet. \starttext \input knuth \page[header,yes] \input knuth \page[header,yes] \input knuth \stoptext Here I get three pages, the first two without the last with header. That I understand.
\starttext \input knuth \page[header] \page \input knuth \stoptext Both pages keep their header.
\starttext \input knuth \page \page[header] \input knuth \stoptext Both pages keep their header.
Should I conclude that the state change occurs if and onlyif when in the same macrocall a real pagebreak is realize? Because otherwise I do not observe a state change. Change the order of the keywords (yes before header).
The header and footer keywords can be used when you want to hide header and footer texts on empty left pages before a chapter etc. in a doublesided document.
That is clear to me. But my question was: why do neither \page\page[header] nor \page[header]\page make any difference unless in these cases \page[haeder] is effectively a noop.
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \setuphead[chapter][page={yes,header,right}] \starttext \chapter{First chapter} \chapter{Second chapter} \stoptext
