I define my own versions of \part and \chapter (called \Part and \Chapter) and
specify a different display style using setups. The definition for \Part is
below, \Chapter is very similar so I haven't included it.
%% Double rule above part title
\startsetups PartSetup
\setupheader[state=empty]
\par
\startMPcode
draw (0,2mm)--(TextWidth,2mm) withpen pensquare scaled 1.5mm ;
draw (0,0)--(TextWidth,0) withpen pensquare scaled 1.0mm ;
clip currentpicture to unitsquare yscaled 1cm xscaled TextWidth
\stopMPcode
\stopsetups
\define[2]\placePartTitle{\midaligned{#2}}
%% The above line is what I use. You want Roman numerals so maybe adapt it to:
%% \define[2]\placePartTitle{\midaligned{\convertnumber[Romannumerals][#1] #2}}
\definehead [Part] [part]
\setuphead[Part]
[ page=right,
placehead=yes,
style={\stylePartTitle}, %% this is just from a \definefont
before={\setups{PartSetup}},
command=\placePartTitle,
]
With \setuplayout[location=doublesided] this then comes out on the RHS.
For the ToC, I use:
\setuplist [alternative=b]
\setuplist [Part]
[ headnumber=no,
margin=0cm,
width=0cm,
distance=0cm,
style=\tocStylePartTitle,
]
\setuplist [Chapter]
[ headnumber=no,
margin=1em,
width=0cm,
distance=0cm,
]
\setupcombinedlist [content] [list={Part,Chapter}]
then \placecontent prints the chapter titles indented under each part.
