Hi Jim,

Here, you can find some doc : https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Widgets

Don't forget : the main command without it nothing can works is :

\setupinteraction [state=start] MWE : \setupinteraction[state=start] \setupfield [TextFieldSetup] [frame=on, width=8cm, height=1.2em, background=color, backgroundcolor=lightgray] \definefield [UserName] [line] [TextFieldSetup] \starttext Please enter your name: \blank[small] \field[UserName] \stoptext

Hi all,

I've been trying to wrap my mind around \field, \setupfield and
\definefield.

Unfortunately, the (knowledgeable) wiki contributors have not yet got very
deep into that corner of the wiki, and the chapter in
     .../tex/texmf-context/doc/context/sources/general/manuals/interaction
dealing with widgets is "commented out".

My grep command did not reveal anything else in the standalone distribution
that uses \field & friends.

Does anyone have a pointer to some current documentation for these things,
or, failing that, any extensive examples?  There is an example for one type
of field (line) in the wiki, but not the others.

Thanks.
                                  Jim
