Off list for the moment. Late at night where I am. I will take a look at this more closely on the morrow. Thanks.

[NTG-context] Metafun, difficulty with graphical element in the margin
Good evening! I have a dictionary where I would like to include thumb-pictures in the margin. — When I use the attached code with a single \startchapter...\stopchapter, it works. However if I add another \startchapter…\stopchapter before loading the setups for the thumb-picture metafun throws an error about not having complete information for performing a transformation. I am currently using the before last version of LMTX-ConTeXT (January 21st 2022). Could someone try to compile?

Re: [NTG-context] \setupheadertexts for chapters with different authors
I might need a little more help just to understand how best to adapt this to my situation: One thing is clear: I was attempting to use a 'list' variable, and I can see why that was an error, since it is headertexts, not TOC that I want to influence. But let me simplify my situation: You seem to suggest initially that I could use \structureuservariable (or \structurevariable) instead, especially since I already have a variable to call on, e.g \startchapter[title={My title}][author={A. uthor}]. But in the example you then gave, you made no use of either of these. My current setting is: \setupheadertexts [{\hfill\getmarking[chapter]\hfill}][] [{\hfill\documentvariable{metadata:title}\hfill}][] which gives me the book title centred on verso pages, and the chapter title centred on recto pages. All I want to do is to have the chapter contributors' name for each chapter instead of the chapter title. So why can't I create a setups along the lines of: \startsetups[contributor] \getmarking[\structureuservariable{author}] \stopsetups Then just swap 'chapter' in \setupheadertexts, with 'contributor'? I tried it but it doesn't work. I thought it would be logical. Clearly I'm wrong but don't appreciate why.
