Dear gang:
I have a \placecontent-type problem. I want to collect all the subsections and
subsubsections into a list, then place that list into an appendix
(conversion=Characters):
\definecombinedlist[synopsis][subsection,subsubsection][textstyle=\tf]
\setupcombinedlist [synopsis][alternative=c,textstyle=\tf]
There are two problems:
1. If I place the content list within a chapter, the list disappears. It works
if I place it before the chapter heading. Thus, I need a way to do
\placesynopsis beneath a chapter heading;
2. \start-\stopappendices begins a new sectionblock, therefore \placesynopsis
does nothing, even if I do not place it within a chapter/appendix.
Thus (assuming we can solve problem 1) I need a way to change the conversion
to Characters on the fly within the bodymatter sectionblock. I need, e.g.
1. A Chapter
2. Another Chapter
A. An Appendix
within the same sectionblock.
Is this possible? I notice that conversion=Characters appears to be defined
for the global sectionblock, but not for local headings. It would be nice if I
could do something like
\definehead[appendix][chapter]
\setuphead[appendix][conversion=Characters]
with the first instance of \appendix starting with `A' (i.e., decoupled from
the chapter numbers).
See the attached file for some experiments.
