Good morning to all. I would like to ask where I can find information about the name of the different counters that are handled in ConTeXt, in order to manipulate them manually.

I guess the number of internal ConTeXt counters will be tremendous. But I would like to know what the "most common" counters are called, for example the ones that control the different structural units (chapter, section...) or the elements of a structured list, etc.

I have tried to apply \incrementcounter or \decrementcounter to some counters that also exist in TeX as, for example, chapter, section... but I don't get any result.

most counters are 'protected' from messing them up and section related counters are kind of grouped anyway and have their own system other counters, like those for floats are more directly accessible \starttext \chapter{test} \setupheadnumber[chapter][+5] \placefigure{}{} \chapter{test} \placefigure{}{} \setcounter[figure][4] \placefigure{}{} \stoptext chemical combination endnote figure footnote formula graphic intermezzo itemgroup:itemize itemgroup:itemize:note linenote paragraph realpage subpage table textnote:note userpage otherw will be defined when you create instances Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
