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.
