[NTG-context] Re: Clipping headers

14 Mar 2025


      Sorry, as I said it was untested, but it certainly used to work on older
versions of ConTeXt. I guess \nomarking has been deprecated and this should
be noted on the wiki? Or is there still an equivalent command (as opposed
to requiring the shift to \startsection / \stopsection)?

I get an undefined command error. Does it work on your machine?

Untested but this should work:
\section{This title is long \nomarking{enough to cause problems in the
headers and footers}}
Everything inside \nomarking{} will not be shown in the headers or
footers.
See https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/nomarking

Hello,
How can I clip long markings in the header?
See this MNWE, where the two copies of section title collide on page 3.
---------------
\starttext
\setupbodyfont[20pt]
\setupheadertexts[section][section]
\section{One}
\section{Two}
\page
\section{Three}
\page
\section{Long Title for Section Four}
\page
\section{Five}
\stoptext
------------
How can I clip the title to a fixed length (5cm?) and perhaps add "..."
at the end for longer titles?
Is it possible to provide an alternative shorter section title within
\section?
Thanks,
Mohammad
