Hi,

how do I access the current chapter number and the number of chapters (including appendixes; after the first run)?

I’d like to setup a chapter color like

\definecolor[ChapterColor][
   s=1,v=1,
   h=360*\namedstructurevariable{chapter}{number}/\numberofchapters,
]

and use it for a thumb index...

(I can’t access the wiki ATM; downforeveryoneorjustme.com says it would be just me.)

Ok, I can access the wiki via Tor and found

\somenamedheadnumber{chapter}{current}
\somenamedheadnumber{chapter}{last}

or

\someheadnumber[chapter][current]
\someheadnumber[chapter][last]

What’s the difference?

And even if I use \definecolor within a setup, I get the same color for every chapter – how and where must I delay expansion?

\usemodule[visual]

\startsetups[MyChapterSetup]
\definecolor[MyChapterColor][h={360*\somenamedheadnumber{chapter}{current}/\somenamedheadnumber{chapter}{last}},s=1,v=1]
\definecolor[fakerulecolor][MyChapterColor]
\setuphead[chapter][color=MyChapterColor]
\stopsetups

\unexpanded\def\MyChapter#1{
  \setup{MyChapterSetup}
  \color[MyChapterColor]{#1}
}

\setuphead[chapter][page=no,textcommand=\MyChapter]

\starttext

\dorecurse{20}{
\chapter{\fakewords{1}{5}}
\fakewords{10}{50}
}

\stoptext
