\setupitemize[1][style=\bf\setff{smallcaps}] \setupitemize[3][style=\it] \setupitemize[4][style=\tfx,color=darkgray]
I already tried the "sytle" parameter (option?). But it has no effect :( Does it work for you?
Wrong key, style is for the symbol/number of the item. A real setup key for the content isn't available and the best i can do (without extra markup around each entry) is the following.
\definefontfeature[smcp][smcp=yes]
\setupitemize[1][command=\bf\addff{smcp}] \setupitemize[2][command=\tf\subfs{smcp}] \setupitemize[3][command=\it] \setupitemize[4][command=\tf\darkgray,color=black]
\setupbodyfont[palatino]
\starttext
\startitemize \item One \startitemize \item Two \startitemize \item Three \startitemize \item Four \stopitemize \stopitemize \stopitemize \stopitemize
\stoptext
With some extra markup a better result is possible:
\definefontfeature[smcp][smcp=yes]
\definestartstop[itemzero] [before=\startitem,after=\stopitem,] \definestartstop[itemone] [itemzero][style=\bf\addff{smcp}] \definestartstop[itemtwo] [itemzero][style=\tf] \definestartstop[itemthree][itemzero][style=\it] \definestartstop[itemfour] [itemzero][style=\tfx,color=darkgray]
\setupbodyfont[palatino]
\starttext
\startitemize \startitemone One \stopitemone \startitemize \startitemtwo Two \stopitemtwo \startitemize \startitemthree Three \stopitemthree \startitemize \startitemfour Four \stopitemfour \stopitemize \stopitemize \stopitemize \stopitemize
\stoptext
What you can also do is to ask Hans for style and color keys to change the layout of the itemize content (would then only be available when you use \startitem ... \stopitem).
Thank you very much for this example! This is already more than enough for a starting point. I guess the style and color keys for items might be an idea to hold on to. But at the moment I neither do want to push this, nor is there the urgent need because of your code. Also, there is surely enough work to do with more important stuff ;) Thanks again!
