Hi Aditya, Thank you very much for your explanations. Where in the documentation did you find 'serried'? I think my biggest problem is that I don't know which values are possible options and what's the meaning (this should be in the docs I think). Best regards, Ulrich On 2008-07-21 Aditya Mahajan wrote:

O.k. I could look in the source too, but where did you read 'location=normal'?
That is just from knowing how the footnotes work. In ConTeXt footnotes consist of two this, a number and the note definition. The note definition is defined as a description, location=normal is an option for descriptions.
Also I don't know what other option are allowed, e.g., in \numbercommand or \split. Only the default values are here as I understand.
numbercommand can be any predefined (or one that you define on your own) ConTeXt macro. By default, it is \inleft, and hence you see the footnotes in the margin. I do not know what split does, but just by seeing that by default it is defined to be tolerant, the other options should be verystrict, strict, tolerant, verytolerant, and they should control how the splitting of columns work.
This is the good thing about ConTeXt; key value options are extremently consistent, once you know what values a particular key takes for one environment, you can guess what it will do for others (well, I could be wrong in case of footnotes, but ...)
Anyway. How can I get that footnotes just flows as a standard paragraph (no hanging indentation)?
\setupfootnotedefinition[location=serried, distance=0.5em]
