Hello,
I have a table of contents that now has grown to span several pages.
Before that I used the following setup:
\definemakeup
[contentspage]
\setupmakeup
[contentspage][%
   footerstate={stop},
   headerstate={stop},
     pagestate={stop},
          page={yes},
        bottom={\vfill},
           top={},
]
\setuplayout
[contentspage][%
   footer={\zeropoint},
   header={\zeropoint},
]
\setuplayout
[contentspage][%
   footerdistance={\zeropoint},
   headerdistance={\zeropoint},
]
\startcontentspagemakeup
\setupwhitespace
[line]
% ToC
\stopcontentspagemakeup
and that indeed worked when ToC spanned only one page.  Since page
breaking does not work inside `makeup', I had ti give it up.  Now I try
the following:
\start
\setupheader[state={stop}]
\setupfooter[state={stop}]
\setuppagenumbering[state={stop}]
\setuplayout[%
   footer={\zeropoint},
   header={\zeropoint},
]
\setuplayout[%
   footerdistance={\zeropoint},
   headerdistance={\zeropoint},
]
% ToC
\stop
Why after `\stop' previous setups for `layout', `header', `footer', and
`pagenumbering' do not restore?  Is there a way to achieve this or do I
have to manually duplicate the setups which were before `\start'?  Thank
you.
switching layouts is tricky as there is a mix between local and global
settings and actions around the page crossing
\startlayout[name]
\stoplayout
also, when there is a layout defined with the same name as a makeup, then
the makeup will take that layout
