Re: [NTG-context] TABLE in item

I said: > \starttext > \startitemize[n,broad] > \item Hello world! > \bTABLE\bTR\bTD Little\eTD \bTD table\eTD\eTR\eTABLE > First item continues. > \item Second item. > \stopitemize > \stoptext What I *meant* (sorry!) was \starttext \startitemize[n,broad] \item Hello world! \bTABLE[split=yes]\bTR\bTD Little\eTD \bTD table\eTD\eTR\eTABLE First item continues. \item Second item. \stopitemize \stoptext I know that in the first example I can put \dontleavehmode before the table and things work okay. In the second example (with split=yes) this doesn't work. Is there a way of making things line up when split=yes? (I'm typesetting an accounting book...). Thanks again, Duncan

TABLE in item
by Duncan Hothersall 28 Oct '06

Very simple question which has suddenly stumped me: \starttext \startitemize[n,broad] \item Hello world! \bTABLE\bTR\bTD Little\eTD \bTD table\eTD\eTR\eTABLE First item continues. \item Second item. \stopitemize \stoptext How to get the TABLE inside the first item to align with the item content, rather than flush left? Thanks, Duncan

Re: [NTG-context] Page number alignment in \placecontent

Hi Angel-Luis, looks like you want a LaTeX-like table of contents. I achieved what I think you want to achieve as well, using the following commands: % setup table of contents \setupcombinedlist[content][alternative=c,level=section] % margins, widths and distances are setup such that section lines line up with chapter text (change to your liking!) \setuplist[chapter][margin=0mm,width=6mm,distance=2mm,style=bold,aligntitle=yes,before=\blank] \setuplist[section][margin=8mm,width=6mm,distance=2mm] % place the following in the relevant location \completecontent Hope this ends up looking like you want it to!

(if you want a sample: http://wwwdi.ujaen.es/~algarcia/page.pdf . It's just 16 KB) How can I manage to keep all the index structure while moving the section page numbers to the left?

PNG pictures in original size
by Maurício 27 Oct '06

27 Oct '06

Hi, When using bitmap figures (.png etc.) using \externalfigure, is it possible to set that I want the picture to have it's original size in pixels; or, better, that I don't want it to be scaled? I'm using some pictures that look terrible when converted to a different size, even if the new size is close to the original one. Thanks, Maurício

Re: [NTG-context] How to get a PhD with ConTeXt (+ hard work ;) )
by M.J. Kallen 27 Oct '06

Maybe Renaud can tell us a little more about the details of the typesetting? What font did you use and what program did you use to make the plots (I particularly like the fact that the font in the plots is the same as in the text!), it reminds me a little of R plots, but I may be wrong... And the flowcharts are made with the chart module if I'm not mistaken? All in all the thesis looks very nice!

These scripts will obviously not work without the > movies or my simulator binaries... Well, I like it. Is there any examples on wiki of these things (maybe I have lost some discussions about it)? _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context(a)ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Roman numerals in headers
by Jeff Smith 26 Oct '06

26 Oct '06

Hi again, I've been searching through various docs in order to find how I can have roman numbering with headers (namely, chapter titles), but I've been unsuccessful. I'm sure it's possible! How does one do it? Thank you in advance, Jeff
