Re: [NTG-context] Chapter-Names and Section-Names in Header don't work as expected

15 Jul 2013

      Hello everybody,

learning my lesson for asking questions only with a minimal example
attached, please have a look at the following code

~~~ snip ~~~
\setuphead[chapter][page=yes,header=empty]
\setuppagenumbering[start=start,alternative=doublesided,location=]
\setupheader[][style=small]
\setupheadertexts[section][pagenumber][pagenumber][chapter]

\starttext
\chapter{Anfang}
\section{Eins}
\input knuth \input knuth \input knuth
\section{Zwei}
\input knuth \input knuth \input knuth
\section{Drei}
\input knuth \input knuth \input knuth
\chapter{Mitte}
\section{Eins}
\input knuth \input knuth \input knuth
\section{Zwei}
\input knuth \input knuth \input knuth
\section{Drei}
\input knuth \input knuth \input knuth
\section{Vier}
\input knuth \input knuth \input knuth
\chapter{Ende}
\section{Eins}
\input knuth \input knuth \input knuth
\section{Zwei}
\input knuth \input knuth \input knuth
\section{Drei}
\input knuth \input knuth \input knuth
\stoptext
~~~ snip ~~~

How can I get the chapter number and section number to also appear in
the header in front of the respected chapter title and chapter number?
I couldn't find the answer in the online documentation.

Thank you for your help.

Thomas

Hello,
I would like to put the \chapter and \section names, including their
respected numbers, in the header of my document, in small script and
separated from the main text by a horizontal line, the width of
\textwidth. On uneven pages the chapter-names, on even pages the
section names. Reading the manual (4.16 Headers and Footers), I
thought this should work:
\setuppagenumbering[start=start,alternative=doublesided,location=]
\setupheader[][style=small,after=\hrule]
\setupheadertexts[section][pagenumber][pagenumber][chapter]
Problems: 1) the mark "chapter" does not work. The section title
appears but not the chapter title.
2) The chapter-number and the section-number don't appear in the header.
3) \hrule draws a line from the very left to the very right of the page.
My Questions: i) What is the "mark-mechanism" that is mentioned in the
manual (couldn't find any information about that).
ii) Why does chapter not work?
iii) \hrule is probably not the best command here?
I found the following somewhere in the web:
\setupheadertexts[{\tfx\fetchmark[section][first]}][][][{\tfx\fetchmark[chapter][current]}]
which gives me indeed the chapter-name.  Why "current" instead of
"first"? What do I have to add to get the numbers?
It does help when you can show us a minimal example for your document.
Wolfgang
