I get no difference using criterium=previous versus criterium=local. Kerry Sainsbury wrote:

Thanks Hans. For the sake of any future users who may have stumbled across this post I want to point out that if you want the list of sections to appear at the end of your document you need to use "criterium=previous"

\placelist[section][criterium=previous,order=title]

Hi Folks,

If sections are just lists, and lists can be sorted, how can I sort a list of sections? My actual goal is to generate an 'index' that is made up of section headings. Here's my attempt that does not work. here's one that does ...

\setuphead[section][number=no]

\starttext

\startchapter[title=foo]

\placelist[section][criterium=local,order=title]

\startsection[title={Beta}] \input sapolsky \stopsection \startsection[title={Alpha}] \input sapolsky \stopsection \startsection[title={Gamma}] \input sapolsky \stopsection

\stopchapter

\stoptext

it's an experimental feature already present for a while but probably unknown
