Hello,
\setupheadertexts [{center}] sets a centered header (and wipes-out any left and right header)
\setupheadertexts [{left}] [{right}] sets the left and right headers (and keeps the centered header)
\setupheadertexts [{left odd}] [{right odd}] [{left even}] [{right even}] sets the left and right headers for even and odd pages (perhaps I have this backwards?)
(1) It would be useful to have \setupheadertexts [{left}] [{center}] [{right}] but this does not work. In this case, we probably also need a *six* argument version (even/odd). When you use three arguments the first is used for the position of text, i.e. above the text, margin or edge areas.
(2) It would also be useful that \setupheadertexts [{center}] NOT wipe-out left and right if they are set (but I could live with this perhaps historical behavior if we were to have (1).)
(3) It is a bit messy that one must use \setupheader [] \setupheader [left] [right] *two calls* in order to have no centered header. (Again, I could live with \setupheader [left] [] [right] if we were to have (1).)
Similarly for footertexts, of course. What is the reasoning, presently?
ALTERNATIVELY (or additionally), we could have
\setupheadertexts [center={center}, left={left}, lefteven={left, even}, ...]
which would be even cleaner. You need a new command for this because adding an assignment option can
Only six or seven arguments work in this case but this only useful in a double sided document. produce unexpected results, e.g. the example below won't work anymore. \setupheadertexts[{\date[d=...,m=...,y=...]}] Wolfgang
