\setupheader: leftstyle & rightstyle
Hi, all-- I would like to use different styles for left and right headers in a book: I would like to set the left side (which shows the book title) in small caps, and the right side (chapter title) in italics. \setupheader[style=\sc] works fine. So does \setupheader[style=\it] But \setupheader[leftstyle=\sc,rightstyle=\it] Doesn't work. Both headers appear in the (medium-weight roman) body font. Any idea why this is the case? -- Matt Gushee
Hello Matt,
\setupheader[leftstyle=\sc,rightstyle=\it]
I think the reference is wrong here, I couldn't find 'leftstyle' and 'rightstyle' in the source. And \setupheader is AFAIU for the section title. You can use \setupheadertexts. See the example: -------------------------------------------------- \starttext \setupheadertexts[{\sc This is my book!}][{\it \getmarking[section]}] \setupfootertexts [pagenumber] \setuppagenumbering [location=] % \setuphead [section][style=\it] \section{My first section} \input tufte \input knuth \section{My second section} \input tufte \input tufte \stoptext -------------------------------------------------- Patrick

AFAIU? Sorry, I'm not familiar with that acronym.
\setupheadertexts[{\sc This is my book!}][{\it \getmarking[section]}]
Ah, yes, that does the trick! Thank you. Mojca Miklavec wrote:
\setupheadertexts [\sc Book Title][] [][{\it (\getmarking[chapter][current])}]
Okay, that seems to work, too. But why use the [current] argument? Are there conditions where \getmarking[chapter] doesn't return the current chapter title?
However, there seems to be a little bug. This works perfectly well for section (\getmarking[section]), but for chapter the chapter labels seem to be erased after the first appearance.
Hmm, that doesn't happen for me. I'm using the 2007-01-23 release of ConTeXt. Which version are you using? -- Matt Gushee

Probably not, it's only an optional parameter. You have also [last], [first], ... etc., but [current] is (most probably) the default one.

I tested with 2007.04.17, 2007.01.12 and 2007.07.03, but result is the same: Chapter title only appears on the first page and never again. If you replace chapter by section, it works OK.

I usually use something like \setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided,location=bottom] \setupheadertexts [\sc Book Title][] [][{\it (\getmarking[chapter][current])}] However, there seems to be a little bug. This works perfectly well for section (\getmarking[section]), but for chapter the chapter labels seem to be erased after the first appearance. leftstyle= might also require implementation of - style of the left label on left page - style of the middle label on the left page - style of the right labale on the left page - all the three styles again on the right page, the same 6 for footer Mojca

Do you have a \page[even] in between? I've found that the markings of the last section get cleared when an empty page is inserted. See also my thread Section marking forgotten on next even page? -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta
