I have followed the recommendations how to include unnumbered sections in the table-of-content along the lines

\setuphead[subject] [incrementnumber=yes,number=no]

etc. this works OK if the unnumbered sections are at the end of the document. otherwise the enumeration of the actually (visibly) numbered sections is messed up (i.e. if a `subject' section goes, e.g. _before_ all actually enumerated sections, there counters are off by one).

question: what is the best way of (re)setting the section counters? i.e. if the doucment structure is, e.g.,

\subject \section \subsection \section \subject

I'd like to end up with the ToC containing entries for all subjects and sections but the numbered sections should occur (in ToC and document) as 1, 1.1, 2 rather than 2 2.1, 3 (in this example). I was not able to find a solution in the documenation/wiki.

Can you send a *working* minimal example.

yes, of course (I presumed this to be not necessary here): \setuphead[subject] [incrementnumber=yes, number=no] \setuplist[section][width=1.5em] \setuplist[subsection][width=2.25em, margin=1.5em] %`margin' determines alignment \setuplist[subject][margin=1.5em] \setupcombinedlist[content] [list={chapter,section,subsection,subject,subsubject}] \starttext \completecontent \subject{this subject messes up the further enumeration of numbered sections} bla \section{this should be sec. 1} bla \subsection{this should be subsec. 1.1} bla \section{this should be sec. 2} bla \subject{this subject does no harm...} bla \stoptext In my real life example the first `subject', e.g., contains a Glossary of abbreviations and I want to start the actual enumeration with the body text proper (Introduction and onwards), while still listing the glossary in the ToC. and I did not find any other (general) solution in the docs, how to include unnumbered sections in the ToC... thx, joerg

You need \setuphead[subject][incrementnumber=list] because when you write „incrementnumber=yes” you tell context to increment the counter for \subject which uses by default the \section counter.

I see. thanks a lot. I took my 'wisdom' from http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Table_of_Contents#Including_unnumbered_heads_i... which seems somewhat deficient. I'd try to augment that section. anyway, there seems no documentation of what `incrementnumber=list' is doing? is it only there to lead to listing/inclusion of the respective section type in the ToC? although you've solved my present problem perfectly: _is_ there a way to reset the (sub)section counters (or to set them to prescribed values)? joerg -- Using Opera's revolutionary email client: http://www.opera.com/mail/
