Reference to equation fails
by richard.stephens＠converteam.com 04 Jun '09

04 Jun '09

There seems to be a problem in the referencing to equations in the version of MKIV I'm using: ConTeXt ver: 2009.06.03 11:48 MKIV fmt: 2009.6.3 int: english/english In the following code, the reference to the equation fails, resulting in '??'. Using MKII everything is fine. \starttext \placeformula[eq:pythag] \startformula a^2 = b^2 + c^2 \stopformula Pythagoras proposed \in{equation}[eq:pythag]. \stoptext Best regards, Richard Converteam UK Ltd.

Captials in section head
by richard.stephens＠converteam.com 04 Jun '09

04 Jun '09

I need all section heads to be in full-size capitals, so I tried: \setuphead[section][textcommand=\uppercase] \starttext \section{New section} \input knuth \stoptext But I still get lowercase. Using 'textcommand=\cap' gives me small capitals, but I want full-size capitals. Is there a way to get what I want? Thanks, Richard Converteam UK Ltd. Registration Number: 5571739 and Converteam Ltd.

And it generates always PostScript first (after a normal LP run you've a useless .ps file). EPS snippets (that we use here) were a special feature for the LaTeX "lilypond-book" process, that's why there were even more junk files created before v.12.2 Greetlings from Lake Constance!

Page number updates
by richard.stephens＠converteam.com 04 Jun '09

04 Jun '09

Hello again, I want to set up a header which stretches across the margins as well as the text area, so I've defined a layer for use as a background, as follows: \setuplayout[backspace=3.5cm,leftmargin=0.5cm,leftmargindistance=1.0cm] \definelayer[pagenumber][width=3cm,height=3cm] \startsetups layer \setlayer[pagenumber]{Page \pagenumber} \stopsetups \setupbackgrounds[header][leftmargin][setups=layer,background=pagenumber] \starttext \dorecurse{4}{\page[empty]} \stoptext Unfortunately, the page numbers are all '1'. If I change the line: \setupbackgrounds[header][leftmargin][setups=layer,background=pagenumber] to \setupbackgrounds[page][setups=layer,background=pagenumber] the page numbering works, so I can get what I want by adjusting the offsets of the layer. My question is: should the first one work? Regards, Richard Converteam UK Ltd. Registration Number: 5571739 and Converteam Ltd. Registration Number: 2416188 Registered in England and Wales.

Bug in spacement in mathmode mkiv
by Otared Kavian 04 Jun '09

04 Jun '09

Hi Hans, I noticed that in math mode the spacement of some symbols are incorrect while using mkiv (they are correct in mkii). Here is an example %%%%% begin example \starttext Set $a := bc^{-1}$. \stoptext %%%%% end example In this example, there should be a space before and after ":=" as one may see it readily in mkii (and indeed in plain TeX…). Best regards: OK

Re: [NTG-context] Lily module under Win

A-ha! pstopdf is a Ruby thing, which I don't install because I use Lua only )) Does anyone dare to rewrite the script in Lua? Or maybe there is another way to get PDF (for instance, Lily can produce pdfs directly, isn't it?) > pstopdf is part of the ConTeXt distribution and should give you > something like: > > hraban$ pstopdf > PsToPdf | version 2.0.1 - 2002-2006 - PRAGMA ADE/POD > > PsToPdf | --convert convert ps into pdf > PsToPdf | --request handles exa request file > PsToPdf | --watch watch folders for conversions (untested) > > I don't see any eps files created.

Problems in latest beta
by Kevin D. Robbins 03 Jun '09

03 Jun '09

In the latest beta, I nearly have everything working for a set of documents that haven't built cleanly in MkIV since Hans started merging the new structure code. Thanks, Hans and others, for the steady progress! I've started reading the new structure code, and I have to say I find it much easier to understand. I have a few remaining problems, that I've discovered so far, that I'd appreciate any help you can give me. First, I still haven't been able to use \placelistofacronyms or \completelistofacronyms to produce a list of acronyms used in my document. Here is my test case: ===== \definesynonyms[acronym][acronyms][\infull] \setupcapitals[sc=yes] \setupsynonyms[acronym][textstyle=small,width=1.25in] \acronym{ABC}{A Better Compiler} \acronym{DEF}{Don't Ever Fail} \starttext \completelistofacronyms % \title{Acronyms}\placelistofacronyms \section{\ABC\ Section} \infull{ABC} (\ABC) \section{\DEF\ Section} \infull{DEF} (\DEF) \stoptext ===== Here is the error: ===== structure : chapter @ level 2 : 0.1 -> \headtext {acronyms} ! Undefined control sequence. \dosetsynonymattributes ...def \fontattributehash {\synonymparameterhash #1}... \@@ddsyndeftitle ...tes \c!textstyle \c!textcolor ABC \doif #1#2->\edef \!!stringa {#1 }\edef \!!stringb {#2}\ifx \!!stringa \!!str... \dododescriptioncomponent ...er \c!title }\v!none {\global \nodescriptioncap... \@@makedescription ...itle ={#2},\c!bookmark =,][] \@@dostartdescriptionindeed \dodowithpar ...tes \c!textstyle \c!textcolor ABC} #1\@@stopdescription ... l.10 \completelistofacronyms ===== Second, I use the following float definitions for wide figures and tables. The floats are placed as I expect, but neither the wide figures nor the wide tables are given numbers in the caption...I just see "Figure Foo, bar, baz" instead of "Figure 1 Foo, bar, baz". However, the other figures and tables are numbered correctly, so it looks like the counters are incremented, just not used in the captions for wide figures and tables. \definefloat[widefigure][widefigures][figure] \setupfloat[widefigure] [location=inner] \definefloat[widetable][widetables][table] \setupfloat[widetable] [location=inner] Here is a test case: ===== \definefloat[widetable][widetables][table] \setupfloat[widetable] [location=inner] \starttext \completelistoftables \page[yes] \placewidetable[here,force][tab:foo]{Bar} {\starttable [s1 |lp(.25\textwidth) |rp(.25\textwidth) |rp(.25\textwidth) |rp(.25\textwidth) |rp(.25\textwidth)|] \HL[5] \NC Foo \NC \Use4[c]{Bar} \AR \NC \NC Baz \NC Boo \NC Blah \NC Flub \NC \AR \HL[5] \NC Bop \NC 3 \NC 1 \NC 0 \NC 2 \NC \AR \NC Bap \NC 3 \NC 2 \NC 0.5 \NC 0.5 \NC \AR \NC Bip \NC 1 \NC 2 \NC 3 \NC 0 \NC \AR \NC Nip \NC 3 \NC 2 \NC 0.5 \NC 0.5 \NC \AR \NC Nup \NC 2 \NC 2 \NC 0 \NC 0 \NC \AR \HL[5] \stoptable} \placetable[here,force][tab:foo]{Bar} {\starttable [s1 |lp(.25\textwidth) |rp(.25\textwidth) |rp(.25\textwidth) |rp(.25\textwidth) |rp(.25\textwidth)|] \HL[5] \NC Foo \NC \Use4[c]{Bar} \AR \NC \NC Baz \NC Boo \NC Blah \NC Flub \NC \AR \HL[5] \NC Bop \NC 3 \NC 1 \NC 0 \NC 2 \NC \AR \NC Bap \NC 3 \NC 2 \NC 0.5 \NC 0.5 \NC \AR \NC Bip \NC 1 \NC 2 \NC 3 \NC 0 \NC \AR \NC Nip \NC 3 \NC 2 \NC 0.5 \NC 0.5 \NC \AR \NC Nup \NC 2 \NC 2 \NC 0 \NC 0 \NC \AR \HL[5] \stoptable} \stoptext ===== Third, I can't get my appendices to count in letters A, B, C, etc. Following Hans' suggestion, I read strc-def.mkiv<http://source.contextgarden.net/tex/context/base/strc-def.mkiv?search=conve…>re: conversion sets. I tried adding these lines to my document: \definestructureseparatorset [appendix] [] [.] \definestructureconversionset [appendix] [Romannumerals,Characters] [numbers] \definestructureresetset [appendix] [] [0] \setupstructureblock[appendix][sectionconversionset=appendix] \setupstructurehead[chapter][sectionconversionset=\structureblockparameter\c!sectionconversionset] But, I still see the appendices counting 1, 2, 3, etc. Where am I going wrong? I built all these examples using ConTeXt Minimals Versions: MTXrun | main context file: /opt/context/beta/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/context.tex MTXrun | current version: 2009.06.02 09:30 This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.40.1-2009050920 (Web2C 7.5.7) luatex.web >= v2376 Thanks, Kevin
