robheus 3. August 2015 11:31 Hello list,

I want some adjustments to my footnotes.

1. The note number in the footnote needs to be normal instead of superscript.

2. The placement of the number is now in the margin, but needs to be in the normal starting position of body text. Of course the foot note texts then has to shift accordingly to the right, and leaving enough room for footnote numbers not exceeding 99.

How do I dot this? \setupnotation[footnote][alternative=serried,numbercommand=]

\starttext One\footnote{First footnote.} Two\footnote{Second footnote.} \stoptext

Wolfgang

Thanks Wolfgang. This is almost the result what I want, just that I want the footnote text in a seperate column, not the first line of a footnote indented. Rob

You can set a fixed width for the footnote numbers and align them to the right.

\setupnotation [footnote] [alternative=left, width=2em, headalign=left, numbercommand=]

\starttext \dorecurse{200}{Footnote\footnote{This is a footnote.} } \stoptext

Thanks Wolfgang. Exactly what I needed. One more question, about the rule for seperating footnotes from normal text. The document I am re-editting uses a style that only shows the rule in case the footnote text is a continuation of a footnote started on a previous page (so, the first line of the footnote text does not contain the footnote number), but does *not* show the rule when the footnote text starts with the footnote number (and text following the footnote), which makes sense I think, because a continued footnote can then be better distinguished from normal text. However, ConText only allows to either display or not display the rule. Is it possible to implement in Context the behaviour for displaying the rule as described above? Perhaps it can be added to the wish-list for a new version? greetings, Rob
