Hi Otared, thank you for your help. — I tried your approach aswel on my Mac as also on Linux. Unfortunately neither installation did give me a positive result. The error remains. Kind regards Willi

How about invoking the command \setups{Thumb-pictures} between a \start \stop pair as in the following:
\showframe
\starttext
\startfrontmatter \startchapter[title=Test A] \samplefile{knuth} \stopchapter
\stopfrontmatter
%\page[yes]
\start \setups{Thumb-pictures}
\startbodymatter \startchapter[title=Test B] \samplefile{ward} \stopchapter
\startchapter[title=Test C] \samplefile{ward} \stopchapter
\startchapter[title=Test D] \samplefile{ward} \stopchapter
\stopbodymatter \stop
\startbackmatter \dorecurse{5}{\startchapter[title=Test #1] \samplefile{thuan} \stopchapter}
\stopbackmatter
\stoptext

thanks so much for your testing and comments. — Tthe problem is, that this thumb-picture should only be placed in the \startboydmatter..\stopbodymatter sections. In the case of this book however there are the title pages and quite some text including the TOC in the \startfrontmatter..\stopfrontmatter. SO I end up with being forced to invoke the setups at the beginning of the bodymatter.
Thanks! Kind regards
Willi

Your test file works fine if I place \setups{Thumb-pictures} before \starttext (using version 2022.03.12 17:56 LMTX). However in the file you sent the choice of the command \setups{Thumb-pictures} is between chapter A and B, which seems starnge to me...
Best regards: Otared K.

I have a dictionary where I would like to include thumb-pictures in the margin. — When I use the attached code with a single \startchapter...\stopchapter, it works. However if I add another \startchapter…\stopchapter before loading the setups for the thumb-picture metafun throws an error about not having complete information for performing a transformation.
I am currently using the before last version of LMTX-ConTeXT (January 21st 2022).
Could someone try to compile?
Thanks, kind regards
Willi
