Hi,

Is it possible to change the text shown in \about[...] to be something else than the text given to the titel key of \startsection?

\starttext \startsection[ title={Very Long}, % referencetext={Short}, % <- is there something like this? reference=mysec] We are now in \about[mysec]. % <- should render as "Short" \stopsection \stoptext

I have tried the following, but it introduces vertical white space:

\starttext \startsection[title={Very Long}] \reference[mysec]{Short} %<- introduces white space We are now in \about[mysec]. \stopsection \stoptext

Thank you for any help,

You can use the selector mechanism to set multiple texts for the title. \defineselector[chaptertitle][max=2,n=2] \setuplist[chapter][textcommand={\setupselector[chaptertitle][n=1]}] \setuphead[chapter][textcommand={\setupselector[chaptertitle][n=1]}] \starttext \completecontent \startchapter[reference=sec:short,title=\select{chaptertitle}{Long title for the chapter}{Short title}] \input knuth \about[sec:short] \stopchapter \stoptext Wolfgang
