Hi, how do I access the current chapter number and the number of chapters (including appendixes; after the first run)? I’d like to setup a chapter color like \definecolor[ChapterColor][ s=1,v=1, h=360*\namedstructurevariable{chapter}{number}/\numberofchapters, ] and use it for a thumb index... (I can’t access the wiki ATM; downforeveryoneorjustme.com says it would be just me.)
Ok, I can access the wiki via Tor and found
\somenamedheadnumber{chapter}{current} \somenamedheadnumber{chapter}{last}
These are expandable
or
\someheadnumber[chapter][current] \someheadnumber[chapter][last]
These are not
What’s the difference?
And even if I use \definecolor within a setup, I get the same color for every chapter – how and where must I delay expansion?
\usemodule[visual]
\startsetups[MyChapterSetup] \definecolor[MyChapterColor][h={360*\somenamedheadnumber{chapter}{current}/\somenamedheadnumber{chapter}{last}},s=1,v=1]
\definecolor[MyChapterColor][h={\the\numexpr 360*\somenamedheadnumber{chapter}{current}/\somenamedheadnumber{chapter}{last}\relax},s=1,v=1] Best wishes, Taco — Taco Hoekwater E: taco@bittext.nl genderfluid (all pronouns)
