Re: [NTG-context] footnotes when using RtL (Arabic)

Thank you, Pablo, for bringing method=two to my attention. I’ve read what has been written about in on the mailing list. However, in my case, it does not solve the problem. On the document I’ve attached: - using method=default produces the error I raised yesterday; - using method=one (or method=two) seem to do nothing — the parentheses are still inversed, as if I hadn’t defined \setupdirections at all. See attached: Talal

I’ve run into a hiccup. In the previous MWE that worked with Woflgang and Hans’ patch, the notes were footnotes. However, if make them into linenotes, we run into a strange problem: the first note is typeset correctly, but all the remaining linenotes in that stream are typeset on the bottom left corner of the page. See attached files.

Hi Talal,

I experienced this issue before (although r2l languages are all Greek to me :-().

\setupdirections[bidi=global, method=two] seems to fix the problem.

I hope it helps,
