Re: [NTG-context] Command for specifying et al limit

Dear Alan, Thanks again for all your help. Deleting the definebtxrendering[ref] part makes my citations disappear. I get something like: bb:2017 says in their paper… Also, the setupbtx[apa:list]… doesn’t solve my etallimit problem. Could you test my code and tweak it for me? Can’t find examples of what I want to achieve in the mailing list archives although it seems it should be fairly straightforward. I want something like: Bronstein et al. says in their paper… I found the etaldisplay affects the display of the references and I don’t want that. Jethro

Remove extra spaces.

Sorry,

Try

\setupbtx [apa:list] [etaldisplay=1, etallimit=1]

and drop the

\definebtxrendering [ref]

I have not tested your example, but the bibliography subsystem creates many inherited namespaces, so changing parameters in a general namespace after inheritance has occurred (in the definitions) has no effect.

Of course, the etaldisplay and etallimits are set to the APA standard in the APA definitions.
