some basic TABLE questions
by Karsten Heymann 03 May '06

03 May '06

Hello, it would be very kind if someone could answer the following questions about the possibilities of TABLE: - there some semi-automatic way of splitting tables on multiple pages if those tables are in landscape mode (which I achieve by putting them into a \rotating{}-Command)? - How do I add a caption to (portrait) multipage TABLEs? \placefigure obviously doesn't work. Any help would be very much appreciated!

Page overflow just before Split TABLE
by Johannes Graumann 02 May '06

02 May '06

Hello (Hans especially ;0), I made split TABLEs work with the following patch from Hans below. Got it to work beautifully, but there's a major problem: the page just before the split table 'overflows' on the bottom (see http://www.idyll.org:8081/JohSite/context/page-overflow-preceeding-a-split-…). Any hints on how to remedy this are greatly appreciated ... Joh % Fixing multipage table according to Hans Hagen: \unprotect % in core-ntb : we check the flag \def\splittblbox#1% {\ifinsidesplitfloat \donetrue \else\ifinsidefloat \donefalse \else \donetrue \fi\fi \ifdone \executeifdefined{splittblbox\tbltblsplitmethod}\splittblboxa{#1}% \else \notsplittblbox{#1}% \fi} % in page-flt : we add a flag \newif\ifinsidesplitfloat % will become chardef \def\dosplitfloat[#1]#2% nog dubbele refs {\ifinsidecolumns % tzt ook nog figuren splitten % not yet supported \else \bgroup \insidefloattrue \insidesplitfloattrue \getparameters[\??si][#1]% \resetnumber[\??si]% \def\floatcaptionsuffix{\convertednumber[\??si]}% \TABLEcaptionheight\@@silines\lineheight % brrr \simplifypagebreak % \page becomes \goodbreak \dowithnextbox {\forgetall \dontcomplain \doloop {\setbox2\vsplit\nextbox to \lineheight \setbox2\vbox{\unvbox2} \ifdim\ht2>\lineheight \incrementnumber[\??si]% \ifcase\rawnumber[\??si]\or \ifdim\nextboxht=\zeropoint \let\floatcaptionsuffix\empty \fi \fi \bgroup #2{\unvbox2} \egroup \ifdim\nextboxht>\zeropoint \page \decrementnumber[\floatcaptionnumber]% \fi \fi \ifdim\nextboxht>\zeropoint\else \expandafter\exitloop \fi}% \egroup} \vbox \fi} \protect % beware: you need to set the splitmethod to b (boxed split)

lb bar/Unicode 2114 symbol
by Johannes Graumann 02 May '06

02 May '06

Hello, I'm using the following encoding commands \usetypescript[modern-base][texnansi] \setupbodyfont[12pt,modern] and was wondering whether someone knows an elegant way to get the pound sign 'lb bar' (unicode #2114, html ℔). My current hack looks like this: \def\lbbar% {% \raise.28em\hbox{--}% \kern-.535eml% \kern-.1emb% } but I'm underwhelmed by the thinness of the bar ... Thanks for any insights, Joh

Fat lines in tables?
by Robert Engelhardt 01 May '06

01 May '06

Hello, how can I create lines with different widths using the "\DL" command as I do with "\HL[<factor>]" oder "\VL[<factor>]"? With "\DL" the <factor> is interpreted as a number of columns, not as a multiple of the default linewidth. So how to make thick lines in that case? Thanks and regards, Robert

Need a dot after float caption number (\floatcaptionsuffix)
by Jyrki Ruuskanen 01 May '06

01 May '06

I need a dot after float caption number. Page-flt.tex has a variable called \floatcaptionsuffix which can do this. Still, this should really be handled by a parameter in \setupcaptions, for example "separator" (which seems to be unused at the moment). I edited page-flt.tex like so: 1423c1423 < \hbox{\doattributes{\??kj#1}\c!headstyle\c!headcolor{\strut#2 \@@kjkjseparator}}% --- > \hbox{\doattributes{\??kj#1}\c!headstyle\c!headcolor {\strut#2\floatcaptionsuffix}}% 1824d1823 < \def\@@kjkjseparator {\getvalue{\??kj#4\c!separator}}% Which gives me the dot with \setupcaptions[separator=.].

Table of contents and List of figures
by WN 01 May '06

01 May '06

Question 1) : In my document I am using \setupcombinedlist[content][alternative=c,aligntitle=no,width=4em] and now I want to use the same layout for the list of figures but there is not something equivalent like \setupcombinedlist[figure][alternative=c,aligntitle=no,width=4em] Question 2): In my document I am also using \part and in the TOC the part number prefixes the pagenumber like Deel I Klassieke Elektrodynamica . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1–1 1 De Maxwell vergelĳkingen in vacuüm . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1–3 1.1 Inleiding . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1–10 1.2 Behoud van lading . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1–20 1.3 Energie en impuls van het elektromagnetische veld . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1–35 I want to get rid of the partnumbers which are prefixed to the pagenumbers so my TOC looks like Deel I Klassieke Elektrodynamica . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 1 De Maxwell vergelĳkingen in vacuüm . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 1.1 Inleiding . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10 1.2 Behoud van lading . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20 1.3 Energie en impuls van het elektromagnetische veld . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 35 How can one achieve this in Context ?

XeTeX & ConTeXt running on Linux!!!
by Mojca Miklavec 30 Apr '06

30 Apr '06

After a couple of hours (read as: beers) of sticking their heads together, the most prominent minds of the World found a way to make it work: XeTeX finally works with XeTeX, even with MetaFun graphics! Tested on SuSe 10.0 with rpm packages downloaded from SIL + the newest tfm + some patches that Hans applied and will probably make it into the distribution soon.
