Hi, the command "\adaptlayout" doesn't work in MkIV. Is there a topical alternative? Steffen

new beta
by Hans Hagen 25 Sep '10

25 Sep '10

Hi, I'm dealing with the bugs/anomalies/wishes that showed up during the ctx conference. The following has been done so far: (1) With respect to registers, Jano had a wish to deal with mixed language indexes. As a result the current sorting code has been adapted. In the process also different control over sorting has been streamlined and this is controlled by the method variable. Also, the language related sorting definitions have changed. % tricky-002.tex: \setuplayout[topspace=1cm,height=middle] \setupbodyfont[dejavu,11pt] \starttext \subject{before : Oo Öo oo öo} \placeregister[index][language=en,method=before] \par \subject{after : oo öo Oo Öo} \placeregister[index][language=en,method=after] \par \subject{first : Oo oo Öo öo} \placeregister[index][language=en,method=last] \par \subject{last : oo Oo öo Öo} \placeregister[index][language=en,method=first] \par \dorecurse {3} { \page \recurselevel: \index{boo} \index{Boo} \index{BOo} \index{bOo} \index{bõö} \index{bõo} \index{boö} \index{oo} \index{öo} \index{Oo} \index{Öo} done } \stoptext We can set up a default method for each language but that has not yet been done. (2) Mari uses the prefix mechanism for references and that had not yet been implemented. The new beta does some but it needs testing. Also, I'd like to change a bit to the logic (esp related to more structured coding i.e. \startchapter .. \stopchapter and fallbacks but that will happen later). For the moment 'get it running as per mkii' is good enough. As cross referencing info is stored quite differently this is somewhat tricky.

Hi Patric, Can you (or someone else in charge) can fix the link? http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Reference/en/setupbackeds > There is a typo in the link: it should be "setupbackends" and not > "setupbackeds". The command is fine though. > -- Best Regards, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky

index: xml in mkiv

Hello Hans, just to remind the other issues. The code from xml-mkiv.pdf doesn't work as expected.

Re: [NTG-context] new beta
by Jano Kula 25 Sep '10

25 Sep '10

Hello Hans, thank you for implementing multilingual indexing. Is there a way to turn off case sensitivity? I would expect the result as written in the minimal example below. This is not wanted in every case (should be a switch). The "Oo oo Öo öo" part is probably tricky then, so I've sorted it as usual with xindy plus my custom module and I've got oá öb Oč Öď Oo oo Öo öo Öq öř Oš oů so the "Oo, oo, Öo, öo" part could probably depend on available methods (before, after, last, first). In practice, one hardly gets same lettering with the different accents. Thank you, Jano % tricky-003.tex: \setuplayout[topspace=1cm,height=middle] \setupbodyfont[11pt] \starttext wanted result: \blank oá öb Oč Öď Oo Öo oo öo Öq öř Oš oů \subject{before : Oo Öo oo öo} \placeregister[index][language=en,method=before] \par \subject{after : oo öo Oo Öo} \placeregister[index][language=en,method=after] \par \subject{first : Oo oo Öo öo} \placeregister[index][language=en,method=last] \par \subject{last : oo Oo öo Öo} \placeregister[index][language=en,method=first] \par \dorecurse {3} { \page \recurselevel: \index{oá} \index{öb} \index{Oč} \index{Öď} \index{oo} \index{öo} \index{Oo} \index{Öo} \index{Öq} \index{öř} \index{Oš} \index{oů} done } \stoptext

producing offprints
by Bowen Alan C. 24 Sep '10

24 Sep '10

Second try. I use a structure like \startproduct prd_JournalVolume \component c_A.tex \component c_B.tex \stopproduct to produce a single PDF file for the volume of a journal. Is there a way in MKII to adapt this so that instead of a single JournalVolume.pdf, I get c_A.pdf c_B.pdf where each component PDF file has the proper pagination as well as functioning external and internal hyperlinks?

Superscript in \date
by Florian Wobbe 24 Sep '10

24 Sep '10

Dear all, I tried to change the output format of \date so that the day includes the letter suffixes as superscript. \definefontfeature[sups][sups=yes,script=latn] \usetypescript[antykwa-torunska] \setupbodyfont[antykwa,12pt] \starttext \date[][day,{\setff{sups}th},~,month,year] \stoptext I get the following error. <inserted text> \inaccessible <to be read again> { <argument> \unskip {\edef { sups}\attribute \zerocount 18\relax th}\hskip \da... \p!compareprocessaction ...commalistelement {#3}#2 \fi \fi \next2 #1,->\p!doprocessaction {#1} \doprocesscommaitem \processnextcommalist ...odoprocesscommaitem #4#5, ]\relax \global \advance \... ... l.14 \date[][day,{\setff{sups}th},~,month,year] BTW the output looks fine in spite of the error message. Using superscripts in this way does not cause errors: 57{\setff{sups}th} or \date[][day,$^{\mr th}$,~,month,year] What is going wrong here? Thanks! Florian

New beta 2010-09-22 and xits fonts
by Otared Kavian 24 Sep '10

24 Sep '10

Dear Hans, dear Khaled, It seems that the xits fonts does not work anymore with the recent versions (at least since 2010-09-18): the integral signs are not properly scaled and the square root behaves strangely: minimal example below (and the resulting PDF, with ConTeXt ver: 2010.09.22 12:33 MKIV fmt: 2010.9.22 int: english/english, on Mac OS X 10.6.3): Best regards: OK %%% begin bug-xits-sqrt.tex \setupbodyfont[xits] \starttext Note that $\int_{0}^{2\pi} \sin(x)dx = 0$, while \startformula \int_{0}^{2\pi} \sin^2(x)dx = \pi \qquad \mbox{and}\qquad \sqrt{4}= 2. \stopformula \stoptext %%% end bug-xits-sqrt.tex

$TEXINPUT worries
by Rolf Marvin Bøe Lindgren 24 Sep '10

24 Sep '10

It seems that the commands context and texexec cause ConTeXt to look in different paths. I haven't been able to see any patterh here. "context" sees some files that "texexec" doesn't, and vice versa. I currently use TeXLive 2010, but TeXLive 2009 displays the same behavior. Any and all help appreciated. -- Rolf Marvin Bøe Lindgren http://www.grendel.no/ http://www.elvetun.no/ +47 40061755
