\startquotation and citations
Greetings, I would like to add a citation to a block quotation. Wolfgang proposed a solution https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg55956.htmlback in May 2011. With \star-stopquotation, the left quotation mark protrudes to the left of the text. With Wolfgang's solution, the quotation marks are aligned with the text. For consistency's sake, I need cited and non-cited quotations to appear alike. A lot has changed in the last nine years. Is there a newer way to achieve this behavior? Cheers, Michael

You can use the userdata environment to create a custom environment with optional arguments. \startsetups[userdata:extendedquotation] \startnarrow[middle=4em] “\getinlineuserdata”\userdataparameter{source} \stopnarrow \stopsetups \defineuserdataalternative [extendedquotation] [renderingsetup=userdata:extendedquotation] \defineuserdata [extendedquotation] [alternative=extendedquotation, before=\blank, after=\blank] \starttext \input tufte \startuserdata[extendedquotation][source=\footnote{See Tufte …}] \input tufte \stopuserdata \input tufte \stoptext Wolfgang
Thank you Wolfgang, Now is there a way to persuade the quotation marks to protrude?

You can either enable hanging punctuation for the bodyfont (which is done with \definefontfeature and \setupalign) or put the quotation mark in a box and move it to the left (which can be done with \llap) %\definefontfeature[default][default][protrusion=quality] \definefontfeature[default][default][protrusion=punctuation] \setupalign[hanging] \showframe[text][text] \starttext xxx “xxx” \dontleavehmode\llap{“}xxx” \stoptext Wolfgang
