Hi there, compiling this minimal file: \definepapersize[aa][width=2cm,height=1cm] \setuppapersize[aa] \setuppagenumbering[location=] \usemodule[simplefonts][size=12pt] \definesimplefont[amsmile][TeX Gyre Pagella] \starttext \TeX\ \amsmile \TeX \stoptext using This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.70.1-2011061416 (rev 4277) ConTeXt ver: 2011.05.18 18:04 MKIV fmt: 2011.8.1 int: english/english took system | total runtime: 144.057 Replacing the TeX Gyre Pagella font with small caps only takes system | total runtime: 6.753 I guess something is wrong here, even if I'm doing something wrong. Just in case it helps, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Hello, I am trying to get japanese displayed in bibliography. But I get the error "! String contains an invalid utf-8 sequence." while compiling with the command "context *tex".

Re: [NTG-context] Tikz/pgf colour issue
by Felix Ingram 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

Further investigation suggests that this is a known issue of using \definecolor colours within a Tikz graphic that decided to manifest itself for the first time when I upgraded. The solution is to do: \unprotect \pgfutil@definecolor{colour_name}{rbg/cmyk/gray}{...colour values...} \protect for all the colours that you want to use. Apologies for the noise. Felix

Re: [NTG-context] Migrating from prosper to simpleslides in creating presentations
by Pavneet Arora 07 Dec '11

Thanks Wolfgang and Marco for the quick responses. Marco, `impressive' looks just the thing that will easily allow me to add transitions while still using simpleslides to get me going until I can do my own DIY slides.

setupheads
by Felix Ingram 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

Hello all, I've not been able to find the right combination of commands to change my header style. I'd like to have bold, italic (or slanted), plus change the text size. I currently have the following: \setuphead[section][color=header_dark_blue, aligntitle=float] \definehead[newsection][section] \setuphead[newsection] style=\tfd\boldslanted, before=\page, width=120mm, aligntitle=float, after={\blackrule[color=sectionlineblue,width=125mm,height=1pt]}, ] This gives me bold, slanted text but not the size change. Swapping the tfd and boldslanted will change the size but not the style. Can anyone see where I'm going wrong? Felix

Tikz/pgf colour issue
by Felix Ingram 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

I just upgraded to the latest beta in order to see if that would fix my header styling issue. Compiling gave me the following error: ! Argument of \pgfutil@context@parse@gray has an extra }. This is defined in: tex\texmf-modules\tex\generic\pgf\utilities\pgfutil-context.def If I change the code to the following (basically just comment out the call to \pgfutil@context@parse@gray) then my document will compile again. That's about my debugging limit - I shall stare at the code a bit more to see if inspiration strikes. % The cmyk part is from Joseph Wright. % See tex.stackexchange.com/questions/27952/cmyk-context-colors-in-tikz \def\pgfutil@registercolor#1{% \edef\pgf@temp{\PDFcolor{#1}}% \edef\pgf@marshal{\noexpand\pgfutil@in@{g}{\pgf@temp}}% \pgf@marshal %\ifpgfutil@in@ %\expandafter\pgfutil@context@parse@gray\pgf@temp\pgf@stop{#1}% %\else \edef\pgf@marshal{\noexpand\pgfutil@in@{rg}{\pgf@temp}}% \pgf@marshal \ifpgfutil@in@ \expandafter\pgfutil@context@parse@rgb\pgf@temp\pgf@stop{#1}% \else \edef\pgf@marshal{\noexpand\pgfutil@in@{k}{\pgf@temp}}% \pgf@marshal \ifpgfutil@in@ \expandafter\pgfutil@context@parse@cmyk\pgf@temp\pgf@stop{#1}% \else \PackageError{pgf}{Color #1 has an unsupported color model.}{}% \pgfutil@definecolor{#1}{gray}{0}% \fi \fi %\fi } Regards, Felix

How to do coloured heads
by Malte Stien 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

Hello, I am new to all of this. First of all, thank you to everyone involved for such an awesome software package. I have been looking for something like this for a while for technical documentation for software projects and had no idea this even existed until... well, yesterday. So, I spent most of the day playing with it. However, I have not managed to work out how to get coloured heads. I am trying to have my section heads in darkgray. So I tried \setuphead[section][style=\tfb\ss\color[darkgray]] which results in a processing error and \setuphead[section][style=\tfb\ss{\color[darkgray]}] which seems to process, but does just not do anything (I did not actually expect that last one to work, but I got a bit desperate). While the manual is well written and certain well laid out, it does not quite work for me as a reference guide in that it does not seem to be complete. So a little help would be much appreciated. Thank you, Malte.

Math align in mkiv
by Otared Kavian 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

Hi Aditya, Hi Hans, It seems that recently the align environment in mkiv has changed and I get several strange results now. The (not so minimal…) example below results in the folowing two PDFs: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4316076/align-mkii.pdf http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4316076/align-mkiv.pdf As far as I can say the right behaviour is the one in mkii. Is there a way to get the same result in mkiv by changing some parameters? (I have movede litlle by little to maths in mkiv and I would like to fix somehow the apparently incorrect behaviour of mkiv…). Best regards: OK PS: Here is the source file: %%% align-mkiv.tex % defining an alignment structure \definemathmatrix[alignedcases] [align={right,left,left}, distance=3pt, left={\left\{\;}, right={\right.}, style=\displaystyle] \starttext \startformula \startalignedcases \NC -\partial_t \Delta \psi + \Delta^2 \psi - \Delta \psi \NC = 0 \NC \quad \mbox{in }\, (0,\infty)\times \Omega \NR \NC \psi (0,x) \NC= \psi_0(x) \NC \quad \mbox{in }\, \Omega \NR \NC \psi (t,\sigma ) \NC= 0 \NC \quad \mbox{on }\, (0,\infty)\times \partial\Omega \NR \NC {\partial \psi \over \partial {\bf n}}(t,\sigma ) \NC = 0 \NC \quad \mbox{on }\, (0,\infty)\times \partial\Omega. \stopalignedcases \stopformula \stoptext %%% end align-mkiv.tex

index (ignore spaces)
by Steffen Wolfrum 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

Hi, is it possible to "enhance" the \index command in order to be more tolerant with wrong set spaces? For example ... This is a test \index{Test} text. ... this would give (legitimately) double spaces between "test" and "text". [This would help to finish original latex documents, for in latex authors can type that way] Steffen

itemize option
by Andreas Harder 06 Dec '11

06 Dec '11

Hi all, is there an itemize option, so that the \blank[-line] in the following example is not needed? If not, can we have one? \starttext \showframe \definedescription[Test] \startTest {head} % \blank[-line] \startitemize[joinedup] \item one \item two \stopitemize \stopTest \stoptext Regards Andreas
