definetypeface vs math symbols
by Ralf Schmitt 11 Jul '06

11 Jul '06

Hi all, what is the correct way to use another font in context? We use definetypeface and setupbodyfont (without really knowing what's going on...just copied from some example we found). When I uncomment the font statements in the following example, the Sigma symbol becomes a little circle and the the bar is rendered through z not above it? TIA, - Ralf \starttext %\definetypeface [charter] [rm] [serif] [charter] [default] [encoding=ec] %\definetypeface [charter] [tt] [mono] [charter] [default] [encoding=ec] %\setupbodyfont [charter, 9pt] $ \Sigma $ $ |z|=|\bar{z}| $ \stoptext

Common counter
by David Arnold 11 Jul '06

All, How do you get two enumerations to use a common counter? This didn't work. \setupoutput[pdf] \newcounter\NonFigCtr \define\nctr{\doglobal\increment\NonFigCtr \color[red]{[\NonFigCtr]}} \defineenumeration [remark] [location=serried, width=broad, text=Remark, headstyle=bold, inbetween=\blank, before=\blank, after=\blank, way=bysection, number=nctr] \defineenumeration [definition] [location=serried, width=broad, text=Definition, headstyle=bold, inbetween=\blank, before=\blank, after=\blank, way=bysection, number=nctr] \starttext \startremark Foo \stopremark \startdefinition Foo \stopdefinition \stoptext

Question: Why does this gives an error \midaligned{% \starttabulate[|r|c|l|] \NC abc \NC : \NC PQR \NC\NR \NC def \NC : \NC XYZ \NC\NR \stoptabulate } ! Missing } inserted. <inserted text> } <to be read again> \vskip \whitespace ...\parskip >\zeropoint \relax \vskip \parskip \fi \dofinalstarttabulate ...efloat \else \whitespace \getvalue {\??tt \currentt... <to be read again> \NC l.22 \NC abc \NC : \NC PQR \NC\NR Without the \midaligned the tabulate works out ok.

Size of Heading
by Helin Gai 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

Hi! I have a question concerning the size of headings. When I say \setuphead[section][numberstyle={\switchtobodyfont [12pt]}], I found that the resulting head number is actually bigger than 12pt. How do I fix that? Thanks a lot!! Colin

clipping problem
by Peter Rolf 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

Hi, I have some png-graphics, where several (equal sized) icons are arranged in array form. When I cut out an icon, I get the icon gfx plus a very small part from the surronding icon(s). The attached file shows, that the same problem occurs when using a vector based graphic. Normally I use imagemagic to seperate such files into single gfx, so this is not a serious problem for me. But if this is a bug, it should be fixed (or if I have missed something, let me know).

Numbering
by David Arnold 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

All, Let's say I have some enumerations that are numbered, for definitions, examples, theorems, etc. Let's say I want everything in a section numbered consecutively, except figures. So, numbering would proceed like this: Definition 1.1 Where the first number is the section number. Now, by "consecutive," I mean: Definition 1.1 f(x)=3x+2 (1.2) Example 1.3 Definition 1.4 Definition 1.5 f(x)=x^2 (1.6) Figure 1 Example 1.7 Example 1.8 Definition 1.9 Figure 2 etc. Hope this give the right idea. Question: What would be the "Context Way" to go about this?

Placing table of contents in a frame
by Frank 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

I'm trying to move a newsletter from a DTP program to ConTeXt. In this layout we have a blue column on the left side of the page with a table of contents. I played around with the framed command and layers, but did not find a way to put the TOC in a frame at a specific location. What would be a ConTeXt way of doing this? Regards, Frank
