Dolly's Underware ?
by Steffen Wolfrum 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

Hi Hans, with todays beta I just re-ran Vedran's posted minimal example (see below): Still there is "Underware" laying around under "d". Whom does it belong to? Hans, please fix this bug fast! In my current book there is a truckload of ownerless "underware" laying around :o) Steffen ------- My \index{dog}dog is a \index{dog+bullterrier}bullterrier named \seeindex{Dolly}{Underware}Dolly. He doesn't like \index{cat}cats. There are a lot of \index{cat+stray}stray cats, but only a few of them are \index{cat+Siamese}Siamese. \placeindex

Problem with en-dash in footer
by Florian Wobbe 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

Hi, this used to work before: \setupcombinedlist[content][alternative=c] \setupfootertexts[{should be en-dash: -- \hfill \pagenumber}] \setupfooter[style=\ssbi] % <-- comment out \starttext %text % <-- comment in \completecontent \stoptext Strange is, that the en-dash is there when either the style is not set or when there is text before the TOC. Best, Florian

Capital spacing feature
by Andreas Harder 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

Consider the following example \definefontfeature[capital spacing] [cpsp=yes] \definefontfeature[small capitals] [c2sc=yes] \starttext \setfontfeature{capital spacing} % not OK % \setfontfeature{small capitals} % OK ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ \stoptext It works okay with small capitals but with capital spacing the context throws an error: …/node-inj.lua:70: attempt to index local 'spec' (a nil value) Greeting Andreas

font error?
by Hans van der Meer 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

Just experimenting somewhat with fonts. Could the following be a font problem? Or is it just not possible in this typeface (taken from "fonts in context" page 70) Example: \def\thetypeface{asana} \setupbodyfont[\thetypeface] \starttext [\thetypeface]\quad Hello world!\space$c = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}$ \stoptext Log message: ! Math error: parameter \Umathquad\displaystyle is not set. system > tex > error on line 4 in file test.tex: Math error: parameter \Umathquad\displaystyle is not set ... 1 \def\thetypeface{asana} 2 \setupbodyfont[\thetypeface] 3 \starttext 4 >> [\thetypeface]\quad Hello world!\space$c = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}$ 5 \stoptext l.4 ...quad Hello world!\space$c = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}$ Hans van der Meer

Lucida font?
by Hans van der Meer 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

From the book "Fonts in ConTeXt" I got the impression that the Lucida font is working and decided to give it a try. I have the afm and type1 files in my texmf-local/fonts directory. However, this simple program: \setupbodyfont[lucida] \starttext Hello world! \stoptext takes forever. On my MacPro (mid 2010) luatex is utilizing a processor thread for 100%. I guess processing the fonts take some time. But after more than 12 minutes cpu time without any sign of process I do not believe all is well. The log file is tacked to this post. Is there someone who knows what is happening and where the culprit could be hiding? Thanks in advance. Hans van der Meer

Reference jump location
by Marco 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

I have the feeling that this issue is well known, but I cannot find a solution at the moment. When clicking on a reference the jump goes underneath the heading making it invisible. How to make the jump to a position that the heading stays visible? Example: \setupinteraction [state=start, focus=width] \starttext \completecontent [interaction=all] \startchapter [title=Foo] \stopchapter \page \startchapter [title=Bar] \stopchapter \stoptext Marco

Include path
by Cecil Westerhof 27 Mar '11

27 Mar '11

I defined some things I will use often. At the moment I do something like: \input /home/cecil/Documenten/context/include/standard-init.inc But I would prefer to do something like: \input standard-init.inc Is shorter and when the path changes there is nothing to update. How should I implement this? Also is it possible to \input a file relative to the current document? For example in my standard-init.inc I have: \ctxloadluafile{/home/cecil/Documenten/context/include/lua/getdate} but I would prefer something like: \ctxloadluafile{lua/getdate} -- Cecil Westerhof
