This works fine for separate titlepages, is there a similar technique for doing this when the title is on the first page of the text (see the attached dvi from my last message for an example)? I had tried using local footnotes during my experimentation the other day, but they always appeared between the title and the text, rather than below the first column of text, as is the norm. Again, this is a minor issue, as a combination of \high, \footnotetext, and \resetnumber work just fine as a quick hack...
\setuplabeltext[en][section={{},{.}},subsection={{},{.}}]
should do that; i don't know why it does not break in your case
Ah...thank you; this does work. Although I must say, I would *never* have gotten this from the documentation which treats \setuphead and it's command parameter as the way to control the appearance of sectioning titles, and never provides a backreference to \setuplabeltext, which is tucked away in the chapter on language specific issues. And even there, the documentation never comes close to describing the behavior shown above. Thank goodness for the living breating documentation that this list provides then, eh?
