Hi helpers,

I have the following:

\setupbodyfont[cursor,12pt]
\setuplayout[
      backspace=1.5in,
      width=5in,
      leftmargin=0.5in,
      rightmargin=0.5in,
      topspace=0.5in,
      grid=yes,
      ]

\definecounter[Scenecounter][way=bytext,type=number]
\setcounter[Scenecounter][1]

\definedescription
    [Szene]
   [headstyle={\bf\WORD\rawcountervalue[Scenecounter]}, headalign=right, alternative=top, hang=none,
     before=\startnarrow[left=0in,right=.5in][left,right]\blank,
     after=\stopnarrow\blank,%\incrementcounter[Scenecounter]
    ]

\starttext

\Szene{Int. Café Glockenspiel - Tag}
Sie  betritt das Café und sucht offenbar nach jemandem. \rawcountervalue[Scenecounter]
%\incrementcounter[Scenecounter]

\Szene{Int. Café Glockenspiel - Nacht}
Er verlässt das Café und sucht offenbar nach niemandem. \rawcountervalue[Scenecounter]

\stoptext

I would like to get my counter in the right and left margin of the bold scene title.
How can I make this work?

And why can't the counter be incremented in the \definedescription? Or is it still possible?

If you need descriptions with a counter use enumerations, they are based on the same mechanism and add a number for each entry.
