It didn't work. Either with texexec or with context.
Here is a simpler test case -------------------------------- start % basic test to change footnotes bullet to a symbol % basice test to change footnotes bullet to a symbol % \setupfootnotes[rule=off] % had no affect
\defineconversion[fnsym]{ \dagger,*,**,***} % etc.
\setupfootnotes[conversion=fnsym, numberconversion=fnsym] % Doesn't work \setupnotation[footnote][numberconversion=fnsym,alternative=text] % Doesn't work % conversion=set fnsym or conversion=fnsym does't work % numberconversion=fnsym or numberconversion=set fnsym doesn't work
\starttext This is a footnote\footnote{a fnote}\\ And another for clarity\footnote{the 2nd footnote.} \stoptext
----------------end the above does not produce a dagger footnote bullet (only std numbers)
It should be a simple thing to do, but I've tried a lot of combinations.. Any help would be appreciated.
1. {} ≠ [], see \defineconversion 2. To end a paragraph use empty lines, \\ is wrong <example> \defineconversion[fnsym][\m{\dagger},\m{*},\m{**},\m{***}] \setupnotation[footnote][numberconversion=fnsym] % change footnote symbols \setupnote [footnote][rule=off] % disbale the rule before the footnote block \starttext This is a footnote\footnote{a fnote} And another for clarity\footnote{the 2nd footnote.} \stoptext </example> Wolfgang
