beta

9 Jul 2012

      Hi,

In the process of mkiv-ing a new beta has been uploaded. This time the 
rendering of sections has been dealt with. New is that one can use 
'setups' for rendering. This mechanism is still somewhat experimental 
(and might get improved) but the idea is given below:

\starttext

     \section{test}

     \unexpanded\def\whatever#1#2{[#1][#2]}

     \setuphead[section][command=\whatever] % traditional

     \section{test}

     \defineheadplacement[whatever]#1#2{(#1)(#2)} % traditional

     \setuphead[section][command=,alternative=whatever]

     \section{test}

     \defineheadalternative % new
       [whatever]
       [alternative=vertical,
        renderingsetup=whatever]

     \startsetups[whatever]
         /\headnumbercontent/\headtextcontent/
     \stopsetups

     \setuphead[section][command=,alternative=whatever]

     \section{test}

\stoptext

There are some helpers. These fetch content:

\headnumbercontent \headtextcontent

These are dimensions:

\headwidth
\headtextwidth
\headnumberdistance
\headnumberwidth

This is for local spacing setup:

\headsetupspacing

These are conditionals

\headshownumber
\headisdisplay

Maybe these names will change. Setups are also used in constructions 
(the building blocks for descriptions, enumerations, notes etc) but 
there some more work is needed.

The code is somewhat faster, but that will probably go unnoticed unless 
one has documents with hundreds of heads.
