A simple footnote question this time. I would like to print endnotes
at the end of every chapter in my book, and then reset the footnote
counter so that in the next chapter the first note will be ‘1’ again.
I suppose this should be done by means of \setupfootnotes – but with
which parameter?
\setupnotation[footnote][way=bychapter]
\starttext
\dorecurse{5}
{\startchapter[title=New Chapter]
\dorecurse{5}{\input ward\footnote{A quote by ward}}
\stopchapter}
\stoptext
With regard to your other thread about documentation of footnotes, the
way I understand it is that \setupnotation is used to configure how the
actual footnote is displayed and setupnotation has similar options to
\setupdescription. So, alternative=serried corresponds to a similar
option for descriptions.
Note that the above is for MkIV. For MkII, I think that you need
\setupfootnotes insted of \setupnotation[footnote].
Indeed, mkiv is different ... in fact notes are a complex mechanism:
- rendering in line (the marker)
- rendering the text (anywhere)
- interaction with the page builder (depending on kind)
- stacking multiple classes
- line notes (refering to lien numbers)
etc. Most of what is in mkii is there in mkiv but in mkiv the textual
rendering has been split and is called notation (on top of a generalized
mechanism that also does descriptions, enumerations and more).
The complication is that we need to group settings for (1) the markers,
(2) the text, (3) the overall mechanism. Of course inheritance also
kicks in then.
