I have been wrestling with this for hours and I'm sure there's a real easy fix. Just that it's eluding me.

How can I use \definedescription to set a combination style?

e.g. Below I can get a capitalized description header:

\definedescription[rsection][location=left,width=broad,headstyle=cap]

but, I also want it to be bold. That is a bold+cap at the same time.

I tried \bf\cap as a headcommand but it didn't seem to work, as was just ignored.

When you use Latin Modern you can never achieve what you want because the font doesn’t have a bold caps font but when you use another font like TeX Gyre Pagella it’s possible but you need a different approach because smallcaps are a font feature which have to enabled. \definefontfeature[smcp][smcp=yes] \definedescription [description] [width=broad, headstyle={\bf\addff{smcp}}] \setupbodyfont[pagella] \starttext \input ward \startdescription{Ward} \input ward \stopdescription \stoptext Wolfgang
