Hi Hans,
Is the following correct? (1) [alternative=...] is a new key for \definecombination
Yes but you can also change the alternative with \startcombination.
(2) \definecombination[mycombiA][alternative=text] means you specify the combination's contents as item, caption, item, caption, etc.
\startcombination[mycombiA][nx=2,ny=1] {item}{caption} {another item}{another caption} \stopcombination
Yes, alternative=text is the old combination mechanism which takes two arguments for each entry for the content and the caption.
(3) \definecombination[mycombiB][alternative=label] means you specify the combination's contents as item, item, item, etc. \startcombination[mycombiB][nx=2,ny=1] {item} {another item} \stopcombination and the caption (label) will be placed automatically.
Yes.
(4) You can setup the mycombiB labels like so: \setuplabel[combination:mycombiB][ text={Item }, numberconversion=character, stopper=! ] (If you do not setup the mycombiB label, each item's label will be a bold number.)
When you don’t set individual settings for a combination label the global values from \setuplabel are used which are bold text and numbers. Wolfgang
