Well to tune the rendering one has to sort out the logic first ;-) You first has to decide "do I want title_variant_a always, or only if the main language of the document is english, or only if an option is set or only if ...". What should happen if the language of the document is in japanese, the bib-entry is a french book and there is a translated_chinese variant of the title? > So, in context speak that would mean something: In the end the biblatex code is similar.

In this special case it seemed the logical thing to do. "Müller (Müller) and 柳田聖山 (Yanagida, Seizan) ..." or "Müller and 柳田聖山 (Müller and Yanagida, Seizan) ..." would look odd. -- Ulrike Fischer http://www.troubleshooting-tex.de/ ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
