Hi, all-- Can anyone point me to a realistic example(s) of \setupfootnotedefinition? I think it may help to solve a problem I am working with, but don't understand precisely how to use it. -- Matt Gushee
Hi Matt, this is my definition of footnotes: \def\withdot#1{#1.\kern.3em} \setupfootnotes[rule=off,numbercommand=\withdot,way=bytext] \setupfootnotedefinition[location=serried] \setupfootnotedefinition[before={\hangindent=.5pc \hangafter=1}] \definedescription[footnotenumbering][numberstyle=\tf,numberindent=no] Greetings Albrecht On Tue, 31 Jul 2007, Matt Gushee wrote:

Thanks to Albrecht and Steffen for their quick and informative replies. I guess \setupfootnotedefinition isn't what I am looking for. It seems to mainly be a way to customize the footnote *numbering*, right? What I wanted to try was to put footnotes in the margin. My text has a lot of footnotes, and a few of them are absurdly long (no, I didn't write the book); the conventional layout results at several points in truly abominable pages, so I thought I'd try something unconventional. Guess I'll have to do it some other way. -- Matt Gushee : Bantam - lightweight file manager : matt.gushee.net/software/bantam/ : : RASCL's A Simple Configuration Language : matt.gushee.net/rascl/ :
Hi Matt, you may also look at the following, although not too realistic -) \def\myFNnumber#1{\hskip2em\inframed[width=1em,offset=. 0em,frame=on,align=left]{#1} \hskip1em} \setupfootnotedefinition[command= \myFNnumber,indentnext=yes,location=serried] Steffen Am 01.08.2007 um 01:48 schrieb Matt Gushee:
