Overfull boxes using m-cweb
by Edwin Wisse 27 Jan '16

27 Jan '16

Hello, I am running into overfull boxes when including a weaved cweb file into a context document. The original reference to the cwebmac.tex file (the plain TeX macro) is commented out and replaced by \usemodule[cweb]. The cweb macros appear to expand something into \*11ptmmmt* which seems to have something to do with it. Is there anyone here with experience and deep (Con)TeX(t) knowledge who understands what is happening? Regards, Edwin ----------------------------------part of my log file------------------------------------------------ Overfull \hbox (6.4885pt too wide) in paragraph at lines 3--13 \*11ptmmmr* for the ap-pli-ca-tion de-vel-op-ment mod-ule.

compound titles, lists and headers
by Henning Hraban Ramm 26 Sep '10

26 Sep '10

Dear list, my publisher forces me to set different things as titles, in headers and table of contents. In some cases \nolist and \nomarking aren't enough. here are my actual definitions: ---- \def\Untertitel#1{\blank[3pt]{\ss\bf #1}\blank} % ok \def\Titel#1#2{{\nohyphens\chapter{#1}\Untertitel{#2}}} % ok \def\KomplexTitel#1#2#3{{\writetolist[chapter]{#3}\nohyphens\title{#1}\U ntertitel{#2}}} ---- with ---- \start \setupheadertexts[][manual entry][part][] % normally defined as [][chapter][part][] \KomplexTitel{Main chapter title}{chapter subtitle}{toc entry} Much text \stop % of other headertext ---- Real life example: \start \setupheadertexts [][Vorwort][][] \KomplexTitel{Die neutrale Schweiz und das globale Dorf}% {Vorwort von Prof.|~|Dr.|~|Heinrich Ott}% {Vorwort Prof.|~|Dr.|~|Heinrich Ott:\\Die neutrale Schweiz und das globale Dorf} ... Now there stay two issues: 1. I'd like to get a four-parameter command that can set the header text also. 2. I must get a line feed into the toc, but neither \\ nor \crlf works. Please help! Thanks.

Bib module and prefix=+
by Robin Kirkham 19 Dec '08

19 Dec '08

Hi, How can the bib module and \setuphead[chapter][prefix=+] be made to coexist? The following example works, but if you uncomment the \setuphead, the citations are broken and the reference list vanishes: \setupoutput[pdftex] % uncomment this line and it breaks %\setuphead[chapter][prefix=+] \usemodule[bib] \usemodule[bibltx] \setupbibtex[database={xampl.bib}] \setuppublications[refcommand=num] % makes no real difference %\setuppublicationlist[title=\chapter] \version[temporary] \starttext \chapter[chapt]{A Chapter} Some citations: \cite[article-full] \cite[inbook-full] \cite[manual- full]. This is chapter~\in[chapt]. \completepublications[criterium=all] \stoptext Any help much appreciated! PS: The following old mailing list article appears to describe the same problem, but the symptoms are different (citations disappear, but reference list does not) http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/ 20010516.173217.113e3787.en.html Robin

Change line spacing of the publication list
by Roy Zuo 09 Nov '08

09 Nov '08

Hi, I find that when the lines pacing of the text is set by \setupinterlinespace, the line spacing of publication list is not affected at all. I am just wondering if it is possible to change the line spacing of the publication list produced by bibtex to make the article have a uniform look. Thanks in advance. Roy

listings.sty
by Peter Münster 11 Jul '08

11 Jul '08

Hello, I suggested to the author of the very feature rich LaTeX-Listings package, Carsten Heinz, to port this package to ConTeXt, and it seems, that he is interested. But before doing it, there are some questions: * What do Hans and other people thing about that? * listings.sty uses keyval.sty, how is the proper ConTeXt-way to do the same things as keyval, or should listings stay with keyval? Greetings, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/ _____________________________________ FilmSearch engine: http://f-s.sf.net/

standardmakeup, frontmatter, bodymatter & page numbering
by Mojca Miklavec 02 Jun '08

02 Jun '08

Hello, I have a document consisting of title page, some introduction which should have pages numbered with roman numerals, and finally the real content \setuphead[subject][page=odd,style=\ss\bfb] \setuppagenumbering[location=] \starttext \startstandardmakeup title page \stopstandardmakeup \startfrontmatter \setuppagenumbering[conversion=romannumerals] \setupfootertexts[page \pagenumber{}] \subject{some intro pages} \input tufte \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \setupfootertexts[page \pagenumber{} of \totalnumberofpages] \dorecurse{10}{\subject{real content} \dorecurse{\recurselevel}{\input knuth} } \stopbodymatter \stoptext Now the problems: 1.) The second page starts counting at 1, while counting should start at page 3. This can be solved by using another \startstandardmakeup\strut\stopstandardmakeup. 2.) The last page says "page 26 of 27" - the total page number is indeed 27, but counting started on the second page, so it never reaches the last number. 3.) I would like the page number on the first page of bodymatter to be "page 1 of 23" instead of "page 4 of 27", and the last one to ge "page 23 of 23" instead of "page 26 of 27" There is some way=bychapter setting for page numering, but in that case there are no suitable chapters/sections available. Any hints appreciated ... Thanks a lot, Mojca

selectively turn off captions
by Roger Mason 02 Dec '07

02 Dec '07

Hello, I'm making progress in using modes - thanks again for the help so far that was given in the "switching to Context" thread. I have followed Thomas Schmitz' practex article and have set up modes for presentation and manuscript. I am using external figures on most of the slides. In presentation mode there is no need for figure captions (the slide heading and my waffling will suffice). In manuscript mode I'd like to have captions to the figures. I know I can disable captions with {none} for each individual figure, but can I do this _just_ for the presentation? I have looked up \setupcaptions but there does not seem to be a "none" option that could be used for this purpose. Thanks, Roger

Hi, I know that Context uses Latin Modern instead of Computer Modern that use Latex. I want to know how to change it. Thank you very much, Xan.
