Hi Wolfgang, Thank you for your attention: in fact you pointed out how to solve the problem… Beginning with what you wrote, after a few trials and errors I ended up with the following which gives what I meant: %%% begin reverse-enumeration.tex \definenumber[ReverseNumberOrder][numberorder=reverse] \defineenumeration[Lecture] [location=hanging, text={Lecture n° {\convertednumber[ReverseNumberOrder]}.}, between=, before={\incrementnumber[ReverseNumberOrder]}, number=no, after={\hrule\blank}] \starttext \startLecture Tuesday December 6th: Banach spaces. \startitemize[n] \item First subject. \item Second subject. \stopitemize \stopLecture \startLecture Tuesday November 29th: Norms. \startitemize[n] \item First subject. \item Second subject. \stopitemize \stopLecture \startLecture Tuesday November 22nd: Topological Vector Spaces. \startitemize[n] \item First subject. \item Second subject. \stopitemize \stopLecture \stoptext %%% end reverse-enumeration.tex Best regards: OK On 12 déc. 2011, at 14:03, Wolfgang Schuster wrote:

Hi all,
When using \startitemize[n,reverse] one gets items numbered in reverse order. I wonder if this feature exists also for enumerations. An example is given below in which the last enumeration is written on top of the file and I wish it were possible to have the enumerations numbered in reverse order.
The numbering mechanism has indeed such a option but it seems to be not available for enumerations.
\definenumber[foo] \definenumber[bar][numberorder=reverse]
\define\test {\incrementnumber[foo] \incrementnumber[bar]% \convertednumber[foo]:\convertednumber[bar]}
\starttext \dorecurse{9}{\test\par} \stoptext
