Hi,
I'm trying to print chapter and section titles in the margins, and it
works fine, except that the chapter title is also printed on the same
page as the chapter starts, which I find unnecessary.
Hi Mikael,
margintext as alternative for \setuphead may be a better approach:
\showframe
    \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\definemargindata[margintext:chapter]
        [margintext]
        [width=\rightmarginwidth, location=outer, align=flushleft]
\defineheadalternative
        [margintext:chapter]
        [margintext]
        [margintext=margintext:chapter]
\definemargindata[margintext:section]
        [margintext]
        [width=\leftmarginwidth, location=inner]
\defineheadalternative
        [margintext:section]
        [margintext]
        [margintext=margintext:section]
\setuphead[chapter]
        [alternative=margintext:chapter, style=\tf, number=no]
    \setuphead[section]
        [alternative=margintext, style=\tf, number=no]
\starttext
\chapter{Foo}
    \dorecurse{15}{\section{Bar}\input ward\par}
\stoptext
All this comes from Hans replying to a question of mine some days ago
and from the last lines from typo-mar.mkiv.
I hope I got it right ;-),
Pablo

Hi Pablo,

many thanks for your answer! I think I might have described my issue a
bit vague. Just to clarify:

I do not want to change the output of the chapters/sections themself.

I want to have a "running header", but in the margin rather than in
the header. I get that with the code I gave, but I want to disable it
for new chapters _on the page where the chapter begins_.

If you have a copy of Bringhursts book, you know what I mean.

If it is still not clear what I mean please ask me to clarify it further.
