You can’t put keywords and assignments in the same argument. You need two arguments where one holds the keywords and the other the assignments:

\startMyList[A][prefix=no]

In the simplified example,

\setupitemgroup[itemize][broad] \setupitemize[itemalign=flushright] \startitemize[n,repeat] \item level a \item level a \startitemize[n,repeat] \item level b \item level b \startitemize[A][prefix=no] \item level c \item level c \stopitemize \stopitemize \stopitemize

“prefix=no” does not work.

I am also puzzled that “repeat” must be entered at the higher levels if it effectively means “repeat higher-level number at lower levels, to produce e.g. 1.a.4” (quoting the wiki).

OK. Thanks for the explanation, Wolfgang. I will await the day when the repeat key can be disabled. Alan On Tue, Apr 23, 2013 at 6:20 AM, Wolfgang Schuster < schuster.wolfgang@gmail.com> wrote:

The repeat key enables a internal switch which isn’t disables at the next level nor this there any key to disable it yet. Your attempt with the prefix key can’t work because prefixes are the values of the current chapter, section etc.

If you are not interested in re-enabling the repeat key in a nested itemize, then the attached example may work (not tested beyond the minimal example)
