table background color in first row
by Manfred Lotz 12 Nov '10

12 Nov '10

Hi there, I have s simple table like this: \starttext \starttable[|l|l|] \NC \bf Colheader 1 \NC \bf Colheader 2 \NC \SR \HL \NC cell 11 \NC cell 12 \NC \FR \NC cell 11 \NC cell 12 \NC \LR \stoptable \stoptext and like to have a light gray background for the heading row. I found documentation about \setupTABLE which on the one hand I did not fully understand how to use and on the other hand I'm not quite sure how far this is the way it is done nowadays. -- Thanks, Manfred

Separate layout and content XML files?
by Peter Davis 12 Nov '10

12 Nov '10

I want to process documents from two separate XML files. One XML file defines the layout of the page ... placement of text boxes, fonts to use ... even placeholder text. The other XML contains the actual content that gets placed into that layout. Is this possible? Anyone have any examples of something like this? I'm a LaTeX user who's new to ConTeXt. I figured I can learn more quickly by starting with a "recipe" and modifying it to fit my needs. Thank you! -pd

ConText, TikZ and definecolor: undefined control sequence
by Michael Murphy 11 Nov '10

11 Nov '10

Hi, I've been trying to get colors to work in TikZ, and found a nice fix by Aditya here: http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20100120.220124.f2d3f8bc.en.html The problem is that the lua script doesn't work: I get a problem with 'colors'. LuaTeX error <main ctx instance>:13: attempt to index global 'colors' (a nil value) stack traceback: <main ctx instance>:13: in function 'registercolor' <main ctx instance>:1: in main chunk. The input file from Aditya (called colorfix.tex) is \startluacode pgfutil = pgfutil or { } local texsprint, format = tex.sprint, string.format local prtcatcodes = tex.prtcatcodes function pgfutil.unsupported_color(name) texsprint(prtcatcodes,format("\\PackageError{pgf}{color %s has unsupported model}{}", name)) texsprint(prtcatcodes,format("\\pgfutil@definecolor{%s}{gray}{0}", name)) end function pgfutil.registercolor(name, attributes) print(name, attributes) local cv = colors.value(attributes) if cv then local model = cv[1] if model == 1 then print("model=1") texsprint(prtcatcodes,format("\\pgfutil@definecolor{%s}{gray}{% 1.3f}", name, cv[2])) elseif model == 3 then print("model=2") texsprint(prtcatcodes,format("\\pgfutil@definecolor{%s}{rgb}{% 1.3f,%1.3f,%1.3f}", name, cv[3], cv[4], cv[5])) else print("no model") pgfutil.unsupported_color(name) end else print("no color") pgfutil.unsupported_color(name) end end \stopluacode \unprotect \def\pgfutil@registercolor#1% {\ctxlua{pgfutil.registercolor("#1",\thecolorattribute {#1})}} \protect and my test file is \usemodule[tikz] \input colorfix \definecolor[mycolor][r=1,g=0,b=1] \starttext \starttikzpicture \fill[mycolor] (0,0) circle (1); \stoptikzpicture \stoptext I'm running the latest beta.

looking for fonts in a project's subdirectory
by Vianney le Clément 11 Nov '10

11 Nov '10

Hi, In order for some projects (mkiv) to be "self-contained", I want to put the used fonts inside the project directory. Putting them next to the .tex files works fine, but I would like to put them in a subdirectory, e.g., to have the following kind of structure: project/ fonts/ fontA.otf fontB.otf env.tex document1.tex document2.tex I could modify the OSFONTDIR environment variable before calling context, but that's not very editor-friendly. Is there any command or Lua code that I can put in my environment file env.tex forcing context to also look into the fonts subdirectory? Thanks, Vianney
