How does one reset the counter then?  Normally one would like it to start from 1 within each algorithmic block.  But definelabel seems to have bytext and bysection options only.

Hi, I'm trying to use Algorithmic module with floating and line numbering.

In the first attempt, I get the "code" with lines numbered. But isn't floating.

In the second one, line numbers disappear inside the floating block.


Two questions:

* How can I get line numbers inside floating block?
You can’t use them in floats unless you add a frame around the content, e.g.

\startplacealgorithm
    \startframedtext
        \startlinenumbering
        ...
        \stoplinenumbering
    \stopframedtext
\stopplacealgorithm
* In algorithms, I think it has more sense to number only "logical" lines. The second state is so long that wraps into another line. Is it possible to number only logical lines?
Not with linenumbering, what you need is counter which is inserted at the begin of each line.

\definelabel[algorithmicline][text=,alternative=inleft]

\definelines[algorithmic][command=\algorithmicline]

\setuplayout[width=4cm]

\showframe[text][text]

\starttext

\startalgorithmic
text
text text text text text text text text text text text text
text
\stopalgorithmic

\stoptext
