I thought there should be a setups key on \setupsectionblock, but apparently there isn’t. So, the example below does not work, but maybe it wouldn’t be too hard to add it…

Best,

Denis

\setuphead[chapter][page=yes]

\setupsectionblock[backmatter][setups={\setuphead[chapter][page=no]}]

Betreff: [NTG-context] Chapters without new page

In the \startbackmatter ... \stopbackmatter section i would like to have some chapters that are not automatically placed on a new page for the next chapter. Is there an easy way to suppress the new page for these chapters?

Thanks, Jeroen
