Math Alignment - start equation at left margin
by Curiouslearn 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

Hi, Can someone please help with the alignment of the equation so that it starts at left. I tried flushleft and other options (such as without \NC \NR, with align=left etc.). None of them result in the equation starting at the left margin. The equation is either placed in the middle or is aligned to the right. I want it to start at the left. Thanks. \setuppapersize[letter][letter] \starttext \startformula\startalign[align={left}] \NC\text{\bf Example: } \frac{d(4x^{2})}{dx} = 4 \frac{dx^{2}}{dx} = 4 (2x) = 8x.\NC{ }\NR \stopalign\stopformula \stoptext

Metapost label - Truncating digits after decimal point
by Curiouslearn 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

Hi, Is it possible to truncate the digits after decimal point in Metapost when using textext()? Please see the minimal example below which produces 1.84375. Can I just keep the first digit and have it produce 1.8 ? Thanks. \setuppapersize[letter][letter] \setupcolors[state=start] \starttext \startuseMPgraphic{Figure} u := 1cm; pickup pencircle scaled 2pt; % default pen thickness %TheFunction vardef f(expr x) = (10/x)-x*((0.5)**x) enddef; %Labels label.lft(textext(decimal f(5)),(0,f(5)) scaled u); \stopuseMPgraphic \useMPgraphic{Figure} \stoptext

Bug with overprinting in Mark II/IV?
by Oliver Heins 13 Dec '09

13 Dec '09

Hello, with color black overprinting is not working. You can easily spot this when you use the »Ausgabevorschau« (sorry, my acrobat is in german locale, must be something with »preview« in english; located in the »tools« menu) in acrobat and remove magenta and black from the preview. Whilst under the region with the magenta colored text the picture gets shown, in the region with the black colored text the text is cut out of the picture, leaving white. I think this is a bug, as overprinting makes most sense with black. It happens both in Mark II and IV -- you have to manually copy the hacker.jpg to your working directory (under linux e.g. with cp $(kpsewhich hacker.jpg) /path/to/your/working/directory) and change the path to make the minimal example work under mark iv.
