Hello, This is perhaps *related* to what Alan Bowen reported. Not the same, since I don't get compilation errors. Here's a MWE. See explanation of bad behavior below. \setupdirections[bidi=global,method=one] \definefont[Ar][dejavusans*arabic] \setupfootertexts[\setups{L}][\setups{R}] \startsetups L %\setupdirections[bidi=on,method=one] %\setupdirections[bidi=local,method=one] \Ar%left چپ \stopsetups \startsetups R %\setupdirections[bidi=on,method=one] \Ar%right راست \stopsetups \starttext Test \stoptext 1. The right footer is placed over the left footer. 2. There's no problem if I replace the RTL text of right footer with an LTR text. 3. Left footer's text does not get proper RTL treatment. Perhaps *this* is the change of behavior introduced in the past year. My guess is that RTLed footers are moved to the other side. 4. If I use bidi=local or bidi=on in the preamble, RTL treatment is applied to neither footer. I can't seem to turn on RTL via setupdirections inside the (left) footer. How does one do that? Thanks, MHB

(I'll add "unicode" method which will take the latest version.)

Thanks, Hans!
With \setupdirections[bidi=global,method=three], the footers are placed
correctly. But the *left* footer still does not get RTL treatment. Adding
\setupdirections[bidi=global,method=three] inside startsetups does not help.
Method three has this "bug": a word with ZWNJ gets the long direction. For
example, if I have A+ZWNJ+B (logical), visually I should get "B+ZWNJ+A" but
I don't. It works correctly with SPC in place of ZWNJ.
