Color tables in MKIV
by Hongwen Qiu 26 May '10

26 May '10

Hi! There's an example at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Table#Background_Colors about color tables. I found that \BL and \CL works fine in MKII. Since I get black background for \BL(which is not gray) and get the following error for \CL in MKIV: ! Missing \endgroup inserted. <inserted text> \endgroup <to be read again> \endtemplate <template> \endtemplate \normalTABLEmultirule #1->& \use {#1}\normalTABLElongrule & \dodocomplexTableGL ...LEmultirule {#3}}\fi \next \doPostTableGL #2 \TABLEgrayline ->\complexTableCOLOR [2,green] \SR ... l.12 \NC \tex{AR} \NC automatic row\NC\SR Is there a easy way to achive this in MKIV? Thanks in advance.

Re: [NTG-context] Multiple citations at one position

The above example works correctly with MkII (if > you replace test.bib with an actual bib file) So it seems that the actual bug is only about the spaces. It would be rather convenient if I could put the spaces back in. TeXworks for example only wraps lines at spaces. Stefan.

\vskip-\baselineskip after section header in mkIV
by Vianney le Clément 25 May '10

25 May '10

Hello, \vskip-\baselineskip behaves strangely when put after a section header. Here is a minimal example. \setuphead[subject][after=] \starttext \subject{Header} \vskip-\baselineskip Text \stoptext One would expect to have "Header" overprinted by "Text". This is the case in mkII, but not in mkIV where we get "Header" followed by "Text" on the same line. Is this a bug or a feature? Also interesting is when you add \setuphead[subject][style=] in the preample, then the behavior is like mkII. BTW, if you wonder why I'm using this, I want to put some additional info on the right side of the title when there is room left. Otherwise it should be put just below. Thanks, Vianney

texexec/context error messages [MkIV] [vim]
by Rogutės Sparnuotos 25 May '10

25 May '10

G'day, Shouldn't ConTeXt be stopping on "system : module simplefonts not found" instead of stopping on problems appearing only later, e.g. ! Undefined control sequence. <recently read> \setmainfont Shouldn't error messages like the first one be more noticeable? Why doesn't ConTeXt set an exit code when running in --batchmode or --nonstopmode? And, the initial reason for these questions: has anyone figured out an appropriate 'errorformat' for the 'vim' editor, for use with MkIV? The one at http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1925 seems to be working with MkII only... -- -- Rogutės Sparnuotos

Problem with dotted fontname ?
by luigi scarso 25 May '10

25 May '10

I'm using otf fonts from http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/linuxlibertine ie LinLibertine_Re-4.4.1.otf LinLibertineC_Re-4.0.3.otf LinLibertine_BI-4.0.5.otf Biolinum_Re-0.4.1.otf LinLibertine_It-4.0.6.otf LinLibertine_Bd-4.1.0.otf Biolinum_Bd-0.4.1.otf mtxrun is able to show them, but mkiv fails to load. Problem disappers if one renames them in sane way like LinLibertine_Re-4_4_1.otf -- luigi

\definereferenceformat [MkIV]
by Rogutės Sparnuotos 25 May '10

25 May '10

A bug in MkIV? The left=[ and right=] settings of \definereferenceformat[] bleed through to \in and \at: \definereferenceformat[cite][left={[},right={]}] \starttext \section[sec:test]{Test} \cite[]. Section \in[sec:test]. \stoptext By the way, is \setupreferencing meant for \about only (if so, why the generic name)? -- -- Rogutės Sparnuotos

interaction [MkIV]
by Rogutės Sparnuotos 25 May '10

25 May '10

G'day, The defaults of interaction seem to be a bit strange (are they meant for slides?)... Could someone please help me with these points? A) Clicking on a reference to a footnote should take me to the footnote at the bottom of the page. B) Once at the bottom of the page, clicking on the footnote number should take me back to where it was referenced. A) doesn't work, hence the first question: is there a parameter that I can give to \setupinteraction[], to make links work when the destination of the reference is on the same page as the reference itself? B) changes the zoom level, even with 'focus=standard', and takes me to the previous page. An example: \setupinteraction[state=start,focus=standard] \starttext \footnote{Note 1}\pagebreak \footnote{Note 2}\pagebreak \footnote{Note 3} \stoptext Compile, open pdf, go to the bottom of the document, click on the green '3'. By the way, why isn't the 'focus=standard' parameter mentioned in either Reference/en, or in setup-en.pdf? Found about it here: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Interaction P.S. I am using the 'evince' document viewer; PDFs generated with XeLaTeX work very well. -- -- Rogutės Sparnuotos
