Re: [NTG-context] troubles with \enablemode

Am 30.10.2020 um 19:26 schrieb Damien Thiriet : I don't fully understand the \enablemode mechanism. Given this MWE:

\startmode[test] \setupframedtext [foregroundcolor=white,style={\tfa}] \stopmode

\starttext \startframedtext ceci est un texte \stopframedtext \enablemode [test] \startframedtext ceci est un texte \stopframedtext \stoptext

I cannot see the expected effect when I compile, that is both texts are in black. When I compile with context --mode=test both framed texts are in white, which is what I expect.

What did I miss?

The processing is more or less sequential, i.e. if you activate your test mode in the middle of the text, the setup isn’t involved. If you call ConTeXt with the mode switch, the mode is enabled from the start, and only then your setup is executed. Hraban
