Here is a simpler test case -------------------------------- start % basic test to change footnotes bullet to a symbol % basice test to change footnotes bullet to a symbol % \setupfootnotes[rule=off] % had no affect
\defineconversion[fnsym]{ \dagger,*,**,***} % etc.
\setupfootnotes[conversion=fnsym, numberconversion=fnsym] % Doesn't work \setupnotation[footnote][numberconversion=fnsym,alternative=text] % Doesn't work % conversion=set fnsym or conversion=fnsym does't work % numberconversion=fnsym or numberconversion=set fnsym doesn't work
\starttext This is a footnote\footnote{a fnote}\\ And another for clarity\footnote{the 2nd footnote.} \stoptext
----------------end the above does not produce a dagger footnote bullet (only std numbers)
\defineconversion[fnsym][\dagger,*,**,***] \setupnotation [footnote] [numberconversion=fnsym, alternative=text] % <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< wrong alternative \starttext \dorecurse {10} { This has note #1. \footnote{note #1} } \stoptext There is no alternative text. I've added an extra catch for that (fallback to 'left'). ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
