Thank you Marco. Another very useful tool for me. I realize now that many things with labels can be used as anchors for references, and I'm still a bit surprised that a delimited text with a label cannot be used that way.

Where has the delimited text in your example a label?

Wolfgang

I had not included a minimal example but I had run some trials. Since they did not work, and you gave me a good solution, I trashed them. I kept the pdf's though, in which I included the source. So I can reconstruct the examples. I'll try to make it again tomorrow morning. I would be interested to learn what sort of errors I committed. Kind regards, Robert Blackstone

Here follows my minimal example. I reasoned that the identifier [topica] might act as a label, or an anchor, or whatever the correct ConTeXt name is, for a reference. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \definedelimitedtext[topica] \setupdelimitedtext[topica][left=,right=] %maybe superfluous? I do not need a layout different from the rest of the text. \starttext Some text. \starttopica Some text to explain a certain topic, called topica. \stoptopica Some more text about topica. (See discussion on \at{page}[topica]) \stoptext --------------------------------------------------------------------------- To avoid any misunderstanding: this is no longer a problem since I have been given excellent advice. But it intrigues me. Why can some identifiers, for example of figures, be used for internal references and others not? Best regards, Robert Blackstone
