Hi all, is there already an equivalent to \lastpage for the last chapter number in a document. I tried something like \getmarking[chapternumber][last], but the output is still the current chapter number. Thanks in advance Andreas

can you try \convertedstructurecounter[chapter][type=last] Wolfgang

Hello Wolfgang, I tried, but it only outputs nothing visible. Here a test file \starttext \dorecurse{10}{\chapter{Kapitel #1} \tex{getmarking[chapternumber]} = \getmarking[chapternumber] \crlf \tex{convertedstructurecounter[chapter][type=last]} = \convertedstructurecounter[chapter][type=last] } \stoptext Greetings Andreas

Hello Wolfgang,

Sorry, my fault. Section numbering use their own system to save and get the numbers. What you can do is to save the number of the last chapter at the end of the document with two pass data (\definetwopasslist) and use the result in the second run or you what for a solution from Hans. Wolfgang

Thank you Wolfgang! You pointed me to \definetwopasslist and that brought me to the following solution (without \definetwopasslist): \newcounter\ChapNum \def\NofChaps{0} \definehead [chapter] [before=\increment\ChapNum, after=\savecurrentvalue\NofChaps{\countervalue{ChapNum}}] \starttext Dieses Dokument besteht aus \NofChaps\ Kapiteln. \dorecurse{9}{\chapter{Kapitel #1}} \stoptext Nonetheless the needed information is already present even more if one uses a table of contents … Andreas

The table of contents needs two passes too but only Hans can say (or provide a command like \convertedstructurecounter for section numbers) how you can access these information. Wolfgang

i'm sure that you can figure it out if needed but i can certainly add something \convertedstructurecounter[chapter][type=last] but as \convertedstructurecounter[section][type=last] is ambiguous it needs a bit of thinking, as it more relates to lists like criteria then of course one can use a reference for the last chapter instead Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

One more question appeared: How to access them in a Metapost environment? I tried some methods but none of them seems to work. % \setupMPvariables % [test] % [current={\somestructureheadnumber[chapter][current]}, % last={\somestructureheadnumber[chapter][last]}] \startuseMPgraphic{test} current := \somestructureheadnumber[chapter][current] ; last := \somestructureheadnumber[chapter][last] ; % current := 2 ; % last := 6 ; skip := TextHeight * (current-1)/last ; StartPage ; fill fullcircle scaled 3cm shifted (skip,skip) ; StopPage ; \stopuseMPgraphic \defineoverlay[test][\useMPgraphic{test}] \setupbackgrounds[page][background=test] \starttext \dorecurse{6}{\chapter{Kapitel #1} Kapitel \somestructureheadnumber[chapter][current] von \somestructureheadnumber[chapter][last] } \stoptext Thank you in advance Andreas
