==Footnote Numbering==You can setup the exact behaviour of footnotes with {{cmd|setupnotation|[footnote]}} (MkII: {{cmd|setupfootnotes}}).(The command page for the MkIV version is still missing, refer to the old version; translate location to alternative and conversion to numberconversion.)
You can setup the exact behaviour of footnotes with {{cmd|setupnotation|[footnote]}} (MkII: {{cmd|setupfootnotes}}). For example, to use footnotes with standard footnote symbols (which ConTeXt has defined as the conversion "set 2"), with the footnote counter resetting on each page, one would use the following:
→Footnotes in Floats: - comment align key
{{todo|This page needs to be reorganized: progression from simple to more complex use is a bit circular..}}
<texcode>
This\footnote[footA]({Or that, if you prefer.} is a sentence with a footnote\footnote{Actually,
two footnotes; this one and \in{footnote}[footA] on \at{page}[footA], denoted by \note[footA].}.

Hraban wanted numbered margin notes, starting in on the same line as the referenced text (like a combination of {{cmd|inmargin}} and {{cmd|footnote}}). Wolfgang answered:
The only way I found to achieve this is by flushing the notes at the end of each footnote
entry which can be done with the next key. The positioning of each margin text is tricky
because {{cmd|placenotes}} adds skips at the begin of the block (which can be reduced with
{{cmd|placelocalnotes}}) but a inline version of the command (e.g. <tt>\placeinlinenotes</tt>) which
flushes the notes without vertical skips and a rule at the begin would help.

For more fancy footnote rules, you can use <code>rulecommand=\MyRuleCommand</code>. Look at the definition of <code>\normalnoterule</code> in strc-not.mkvi for a starting point.
