Hi, I'm trying to make my own headings, and it doesn't really come out the way I want. I'll describe what I'm trying to do, and maybe someone has something that can help me. I'd like to have the chapter number really big, in a (light) colour in the background. The title should go over the number. If possible/needed, the number may end up (partially) under the text. I think I can get the positioning correct (in metapost/metafun if I have to), but defining the (huge) font in ConTeXt proves a hurdle I cannot tackle. My attempts (copied rather directly from the manual) are below. Thanks for your time, Maarten %% This generated no error, but not a really large font either \definebodyfont[9pt][rm][tfe=LucidaBright at 36pt] \definebodyfont[9pt][ss][fte=LucidaSans at 36pt] %% after the following definition, TeX claims it cannot find %% \MyChapNumLetter %\definebodyfont[MyChapNumLetter][LucidaSans-DemiItalic sa 4] %% this example also comes from the manual \def\MyChapterHeadingCommand#1#2{\hbox to \hsize\bgroup% \setupframed[offset=.5em,frame=off]% \tbox{\framed{{\color[MyChapNumColor]{\fte\ss\bf #1}}}}% \tbox{\framed[width=8cm,align=right]{{\tfa\ss\bf #2}}}% \egroup} %% the obligatory version info: %% ConTeXt ver: 2003.3.11 fmt: 2003.3.26 int: english mes: english %% (on texlive 7)
