Dear Knights, I seem to remember there was a way to do this, but I can't find it. This is what i want: Part Foo 1 Chapter One 2 Chapter Two Part Foo Moo 3 Chapter Three 4 Chapter Four But what I always get is, obviously Part Foo 1 Chapter One 2 Chapter Two Part Foo Moo 1 Chapter Three 2 Chapter Four What is the correct setting for part and chapter to get the chapter no. to ignore the part no.? The relevant parameters seem to be \setuphead[part][placehead=yes, incrementnumber=no, number=no, continue=no, ownnumber=no] \setuphead[chapter][continue=yes, header=empty, %ownnumber=yes] Of course there is the workaround: \setupheadnumber[chapter][2] But I'd like to know if there is an automated way. Any advice appreciated, and Best wishes Idris -- Professor Idris Samawi Hamid, Editor-in-Chief International Journal of Shīʿī Studies Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523
