I am relatively new to ConTeXt and have encountered something that does not work as I expected it to based on various documentation and examples.
My book design requires the front matter to contain an abridged table of contents just for chapters, and a detailed table of contents in the back matter.
Everything worked fine -- including the PDF bookmarks and table of contents -- until I started using \writetolist to manually inject additional sections and subsections into their respective lists. The manually injected entries do show up (as I expected), but their corresponding PDF bookmarks get repeated (not what I expected).
Here is a M(not)WD:
###begin
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\placebookmarks[chapter, section][chapter, section]
\setupinteractionscreen[option=bookmark]
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\title{Contents}
\placelist[chapter]
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
\chapter{Chapter ONE}
\section{Section ONE}
\writetolist[section]{}{Section via writetolist ONE}
\chapter{Chapter TWO}
\stopbodymatter
\startbackmatter
\chapter{Detailed Table of Contents}
\placecontent[criterium=all]
\stopbackmatter
\stoptext
###end
The repetitions go away when any one of the following is done:
-- commenting out the front/body/back commands
-- commenting out both contents at front and back
-- commenting out just back contents
-- commenting out the \writetolist
Have I misunderstood something?
Many thanks,
Musa
