footnote reference mark font switch
Dear cartel, I need to switch to a different font for the footnote reference markers. First attempt failed: ======================= % output=pdf interface=en \setupfootnotes[before=\ss,after=\sc] \starttext This is a test.\footnote{This is a test} \stoptext ======================= The idea is to print the reference marker, in this case `1', in a different font from both the main text and from the footnote text. That is, \setupfootnotes should let me transparently distinguish between 1. main text font; 2. reference marker font 3. footnote text font. Please advise, and I have a nice trick to show you once this is done:-) Best Idris ============================ Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523

How about this? \setupfootnotes[style=\ss,textcommand=,command=,textstyle=smallcapped] -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

Your setup compiled but did not work, even after bracketing the commands. I still get no font changes: ============================================== % output=pdf interface=en %\setupfootnotes[before=\ss,after=\sc] \setupfootnotes[{style=\ss},{textstyle=\sc}] \starttext This is a test.\footnote{This is a test} \stoptext ============================================== Caveat: My up-to-date (well, before the latest beta) is at home and I'm at work with an older ConTeXt. OTOH but this is not a new feature so should work... Thnx Idris -- Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523

Don't bracket them, and the blank command parameters also play a role (to over-ride the \high command, in case you have superior figures, for example). Also, keep in mind that the particular font switches you chose are not very visible in LMR with a single '1' character. Try: \setupfootnotes[style=italic,textcommand=,command=,textstyle=boldslanted]

Au contraire, Hans gave footnote styles a big overhaul last summer, iirc. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

Dear Hans: (unless I'm missing something) is it possible to get an option
\setupfootnotes[{markstyle=\switchtobodyfont[myfont]}]
where the size defaults to the normal footnote mark size?
