Hi Hans!
···
What has happened to \setupfootnotes?
It is an alias for \setupnote[footnote].
\setupfootnotes defines [textcolor=] although in the wiki just below this the example has [color=] instead.
The “color” key belongs in \setupnotation, while “textcolor” as part of \setupnote determines the appearance of the footnote number/symbol. There is a wiki section[0] on that difference. Example: %% \setupfootnotes -> \setupnote[footnote][...=...] \setupfootnotes[ textstyle=bold, textcolor=red, ] \setupnotation[footnote][ color=green, style=italic, ] \starttext foo \footnote{bar} baz \stoptext [0] http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Unexpected_behavior#Footnotes:_The_Difference_...
