Headers are driving me crazy;-) Consider the test file at the end of this mail: It is designed so that every new chapter (\title since journal articles need no numbering) begins on an odd page. I tried localizing the headers with \start and \stop. Here is what happens 1. On page five (odd, last page of Test~1) we are still in chapter Test~1, yet the heading for Test~2 appears; 2. The blank page before the beginning of Chapter Test~2 has a heading and a footer. How can I automatically make it completely empty of header and footer (I know about \noheaderandfooterlines but I have had no luck positioning it just right to get the effect I want); 3. On page ten (even, last page of Test~2), the heading reads Author~3, when it should read Author~2. How do I get things right here? I'm truly desperate on this one. I found clever (or clunky) workarounds to some of my other problems (I processed my tables in pdfetex and turned them into eps files for the Gamma run, for instance) but this one is really driving me bats. While I would still like to fix the original problem in Gamma where the global setting of \setupheadertexts% [][title][\Author][]% \setupheader[style=\sc,state=high] makes the title disappear, even the global setting in pdfetex creates similar problems. Problem~1 disappears but problems 2 & 3 remain. Please help!
