a lot more traces
< [[Inside ConTeXt]] | [[Visuals]] >
There's a whole lot of commands that help you analyzing and debugging your ConTeXt documents. Most of them start with <cmd>show...</cmd> or <cmd>trace...</cmd>. While <cmd>showsomething</cmd> is a command that immediately inserts something, <cmd>tracesomethingtrue</cmd> or ...<tt>false</tt> is a switch that influences the behaviour of some other commands. You can check the setting with <cmd>iftrace...</cmd>.
