Re: [NTG-context] Different author rendering in entry citation vs. list
Nevermind, it looks like there's an even more deliberate and succinct way to handle this! In publ-ini.mkiv, the \currentbtxciteauthorbyfield command shows how to print the author field mapped according to the cite style: ``` \unexpanded\def\currentbtxciteauthorbyfield {\begingroup %\setbtxparameterset\s!cite\s!author % the alternatives inherit from cite:author % and APA distinguishes authoryears from authoryear ("and" vs. "&") \setbtxparameterset\s!cite\currentbtxcitealternative \clf_btxauthor {\currentbtxdataset}% {\currentbtxtag}% {\currentbtxauthorfield}% {% combiner{\btxparameter\c!authorconversion}% kind{cite}% etallimit {\btxparameter\c!etallimit}% etaldisplay {\btxparameter\c!etaldisplay}% etaloption {\btxparameter\c!etaloption}% symbol {\btxparameter{\c!stopper:initials}}% }% \relax \endgroup} ``` The snippet above might offer some guidance on how to handle this problem more generally, but for my specific use case, it suffices to invoke the \currentbtxciteauthorbyfield command: ``` \doifelse {\currentbtxcitealternative} {entry} { % Normal order for in-text citations \currentbtxciteauthorbyfield } { % Inverted order for list citations % TODO: need to print the first name inverted, with all subsequent names in normal order \btxflush{author} } ``` I get the feeling that there are more relevant commands in publ-ini.mkiv that are intended to help with this kind of thing, but I've just been unaware of most of them. The existing bibliography documentation only covers the tip of the iceberg! Anyway, I realized that a couple months ago, Ágoston Volcz raised a similar issue in another thread. I think this approach should solve that problem, so when I get a chance, I can send an e-mail about that. Joey On Thu, Aug 26, 2021 at 3:38 PM Joey McCollum wrote: > Okay, I've made some progress!

Re: [NTG-context] Different author rendering in entry citation vs. list
Okay, I've made some progress! Thankfully, the authorconversion rules can be overridden using some of the methods defined in publ-ini.mkiv. I now have something like this in my rendering's .mkvi file: ``` \doifelse {\currentbtxcitealternative} {entry} { % Normal order for in-text citations \btxflushauthornormal{author} } { % Inverted order for list citations % TODO: need to print the first name inverted, with all subsequent names in normal order \btxflushauthorinverted{author} } ``` This fixes the citation alternative-dependent authorconversion, but I still have to do the same for the etallimit and etaldisplay settings, and unfortunately, it doesn't look like there are similar commands for overriding this locally. Digging a bit more in publ-imp-chicago.lua and publ-imp-chicago.mkvi, I notice that it deals with a similar problem for the "editor" field: if the editor occurs in the "author" position (i.e., at the start of the citation, which happens when a book has an editor but no author), then the authorconversion should be inverted, but if the editor occurs after the author position (which happens when a book also has an author), then its authorconversion should be normalshort. The publ-imp-chicago.lua file addresses this by specifying an "ineditor" set containing only the "editor" field (essentially making it an alias to be used later), and then publ-imp-chicago.mkvi defines a style specifically for this field. I could solve the authorconversion, etallimit, and etaldisplay problems using an "entryauthor" field, but is this actually the recommended way to do this? Using this approach, I would have to have duplicate sets for nearly all "author"-type fields to ensure that they have different formatting in entry citations than they do in the list.
