* Currently, footnotes are set so that the left end of the text of the footnote is aligned with the left edge of the text, and the footnote number hangs out into the margin. Is it possible to change this? (For instance, suppose I would like the number aligned to the text-edge, and then a fixed-width space, and then the text?)
This behavior is controlled by the <code>location</code> key in the <code>\setupnotedefinitionsetupnotation</code> command. Here are some examples:
Note number is typeset in an area with a width of 1cm, aligned at the left of the text area:
\showframe
\setupnotedefinitionsetupnotation[footnote][location=left,width=1cm]
\setupnote[footnote][location=page,numbercommand=]
<texcode>
\setupnote[footnote][margindistance=0em,command=\myfootnotecommand]
\setupnotedefinitionsetupnotation[footnote][location=left,hang=1]
\def\myfootnotecommand#1{\hbox to 1.5em{#1.}}
