It's really quite easy, you must only setup the "part" head -- you could find it in the docs yourself.
I looked in the docs, but there is no explicit discussion on setting up parts formatting, and it's not intuitively obvious (at least to me) how to apply the procedures for, say, sections (which are formatted by default) to those for parts (which are not).
(John tends to give a bit contraproductive low-level TeX answers even if there's a comfortable ConTeXt solution...)
An example from my latest book:
\setuphead[part] [style={\ss\bfc}, page=yes, number=yes, placehead=yes, align=right, before={}, after=\blank, header=empty]
Any more questions?
Yes :-) The doc I am working on is a two-part book proposal. The first part is the proposal proper, while the second part is a sample chapter from the book. In other words, the first part has no chapter, while the second part does. If I use your code, here is what I get: For part 1, I get "Part 1..." at the top of the page, and text (beginning with the first section) begins right after it. For part 2, I get (as I was looking for) "Part 2..." on a separate page, plus a blank page that follows, and then the sample chapter. Just so I understand this, is this explained by some interaction between the chapter setup commands, and the parts? Thank you! Bruce
