Export (table cell alignment)
by Andreas Harder 09 Dec '11

09 Dec '11

Hi Hans, I’ve stumbled upon another export problem, concerning (natural) tables. The first table exports fine but in the second table the first column is ignored. \startbuffer[css] document { display: block } table { display: table ; width: 100% } tablerow { display: table-row } tablecell { display: table-cell ; border-style: solid ; padding: 1ex } tablecell[align="flushright"] { display: table-cell ; text-align: right } tablecell[align="flushleft"] { display: table-cell ; text-align: left } tablecell[align="middle"] { display: table-cell ; text-align: center } \stopbuffer \savebuffer[css] \setupbackend[export=yes,xhtml=yes,css={\jobname-css.tmp}] \starttext \startbuffer \bTR\bTD flush right \eTD\bTD ~~~~~ ~~~~ \eTD\bTD ~~~~~~ \eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD ~~~~~ ~~~~~ \eTD\bTD flush left \eTD\bTD ~~~~~~ \eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD ~~~~~ ~~~~~ \eTD\bTD ~~~~~ ~~~~ \eTD\bTD middle \eTD\eTR \stopbuffer \bTABLE[width=broad] \getbuffer \eTABLE % OK \bTABLE[width=broad] \setupTABLE [c] [1] [align=flushright] \setupTABLE [c] [2] [align=flushleft] \setupTABLE [c] [3] [align=middle] \getbuffer % not OK! \eTABLE \stoptext Best wishes Andreas

Tabulate-export

Hi Hans, it seems that tabulate environments are not exported correctly. Here is an example. \setupbackend[export=yes] \starttext \starttabulate[|l|c|r|] \NC left \NC center \NC right \NC \NR \NC l \NC c \NC r \NC \NR \stoptabulate \stoptext exports to: <tabulate> </tabulate> Regards Andreas

Footnotes break out of columnset (current beta)
by Peter Park Nelson 09 Dec '11

09 Dec '11

Hello, In TeXLive 2011, the following works correctly (footnotes in column) -- although the footnote rule does not appear, as I have noted in another post. In the current beta (29 nov 2011), the footnotes span the whole page and are run over by the body text columns. The footnote rule also continues to be absent. (The actual format I'm using has more formatting options but this is minimal). %%------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------%% \definecolumnset[body][n=2,balancing=yes] \setupnote[footnote] [location=columns] \setupnotedefinition[footnote] [location=left] \starttext \startcolumnset[body] \definecolumnset[body][n=2,balancing=yes] \def\myfootnotecommand#1{\hbox to 1.5em{#1}}% space for footnote number. \setupnote[footnote] [location=columns, way=bytext, command=\myfootnotecommand, rule=on] \setupnotedefinition[footnote] [location=left] \starttext \startcolumnset[body] Some text\footnote{Cluster, aggregate, outline, summarize, itemize, review, dip into, flip through, browse, glance into, leaf through, skim, refine, enumerate, glean, synopsize, winnow the wheat from the chaff and separate the sheep from the goats.} \dorecurse{5}{\input tufte \par} \stopcolumnset \stoptext \dorecurse{5}{\input tufte \par} \stopcolumnset \stoptext %%------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------%% -- Peter Park Nelson peter.park.nelson(a)gmail.com

Possible bug in \unit
by Marco 09 Dec '11

09 Dec '11

There seems to be a bug in the new unit system for \unit{kbit}: % bit \unit{kilo bit} % kbit \unit{kilobit} % kbit \unit{kbit} % kB, shouldn't this be kbit? Another thing: \unit{3.4e-5} yields to 3.4⁻⁵ that's expected according to the manual. But how to get 3.4·10⁻⁵ (either with \cot or \times)? Marco Patzer

\usezipfile
by Wolfgang Schuster 09 Dec '11

09 Dec '11

Hi Hans, the \usezipfile command doesn’t work work. I can get rid of one problem when I make the following change in data-zip.lua: function resolvers.usezipfile(archive) local specification = resolvers.splitmethod(archive) -- to be sure local archive = specification.filename if archive and not registeredfiles[archive] then local z = zip.openarchive(archive) if z then local tree = url.query(specification.query).tree or "" if trace_locating then report_zip("registering, registering archive '%s'",archive) end statistics.starttiming(resolvers.instance) resolvers.prependhash('zip',archive) resolvers.extendtexmfvariable(archive) -- resets hashes too registeredfiles[archive] = z -- instance.files[archive] = resolvers.registerzipfile(z,tree) resolvers.instance.files[archive] = resolvers.registerzipfile(z,tree) statistics.stoptiming(resolvers.instance) elseif trace_locating then report_zip("registering, unknown archive '%s'",archive) end elseif trace_locating then report_zip("registering, '%s' not found",archive) end end Another problem afterward is that context can’t load the file in the zip archive even though it can find it as seen in the error message: ! I can't find file `lipsum.zip?name=tex/context/third/lipsum/lipsum.tex'. Wolfgang

Wrong bookmark for publications list
by Marco 09 Dec '11

09 Dec '11

There is an inconsistency concerning the bookmarks for the publications list. It generates the section head “References”, but the PDF bookmark “pubs”. \setupinteraction [state=start] \placebookmarks \starttext % generates bookmark ”pubs” \completepublications % workaround: % generates bookmark ”References” \startchapter [title=References] \placepublications \stopchapter \stoptext Marco

by Verhaag, G.C.H.M. 09 Dec '11

09 Dec '11

Hi ConTeXt user's, A few days ago I installed the latest ConTeXt version but now my oldstyle settings don't seem to work any more! I use the following settings in my preamble: \usetypescript[schola] \setupbodyfont[schola,10pt] \definefontfeature [oldstyle] [default] [onum=yes] \addff{oldstyle} Perhaps something changed that I missed! Thanks in advance! Regards Gerard Verhaag P.S. I use ConTeXt ver: 2011.11.29 23:11 MKIV fmt: 2011.12.5 int: english/english!

Enumeration in mkiv
by Otared Kavian 09 Dec '11

09 Dec '11

Dear Hans, In transferring some stuff from mkii to mkiv, I noticed a change in the way mkiv puts too much distance between the title of an enumeration and the text following it. I am not sure whether I have noticed this before, but my feeling is that the change is somewhat recent. I have put the result of the source below here, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4316076/enumeration-mkii.pdf and http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4316076/enumeration-mkiv.pdf I think the correct behaviour is the one with mkii. Best regards: OK PS: here is the source file: %%% begin enumeration-mkiv.tex \defineenumeration[exo] [location=hanging, text=Exercise, between=, before=, stopper={.}, after= \blank] \starttext \startexo This is a test with mkiv. \startitemize[n] \item First question. \item Second question. \stopitemize \stopexo \stoptext %%% end enumeration-mkiv.tex

Reverse numbering for enumerations?
by Otared Kavian 09 Dec '11

09 Dec '11

Hi all, When using \startitemize[n,reverse] one gets items numbered in reverse order. I wonder if this feature exists also for enumerations. An example is given below in which the last enumeration is written on top of the file and I wish it were possible to have the enumerations numbered in reverse order. Thanks in advance for any insight: OK PS: here is an example file: %%%% enumeration-reverse.tex \defineenumeration[Lecture] [location=hanging, text={Lecture n°}, between=, before=, stopper={.}, after= {\hrule\blank}] \setupenumerations[Lecture][number=yes] % \setupenumerations[Lecture][numbering=reverse] % this has no effect though… \starttext \startLecture Tuesday December 6th: Banach spaces. \startitemize[n] \item First subject. \item Second subject. \stopitemize \stopLecture \startLecture Tuesday November 29th: Norms. \startitemize[n] \item First subject. \item Second subject. \stopitemize \stopLecture \startLecture Tuesday November 22nd: Topological Vector Spaces. \startitemize[n] \item First subject. \item Second subject. \stopitemize \stopLecture \stoptext %%% end enumeration-reverse.tex

Header spoils X(HT)ML export
by Andreas Harder 09 Dec '11

09 Dec '11

Hi Hans, please consider the following example. \setupbackend[export=yes,xhtml=yes,css=yes] \setupheadertexts[{\startelement[header] test \stopelement}] \starttext \startbuffer \startparagraph \input tufte \stopparagraph \startparagraph \input ward \stopparagraph \stopbuffer \startsection[title=first head] \getbuffer \stopsection \startsection[title=second head] \getbuffer \stopsection %% try to comment this section \startsection[title=third head] \getbuffer \stopsection \stoptext The section-title order is now 3, 1, 2 (in the XHTML output). This problem appears only if there is a page break. After commenting the last section the XHTML output looks like expected. Best wishes Andreas PS. I’ve encountered another export problem. Perhaps it is because of an not intending using of \settaggedmetadata … Here is an example. \setupbackend[export=yes,xhtml=yes,css=yes] \startsetups document:start \settaggedmetadata[title=\documentvariable{title}] \stopsetups \startdocument [title=This document title is wrapped in section-tags] \startsection[title=test] \startparagraph \input tufte \stopparagraph \stopsection \stopdocument
