attachment attaches twice
by Reviczky, Adam 29 Apr '11

29 Apr '11

Hi I'm trying to use PDF attachments again, but run into some issues. Here's my small example (att.tex): %%% start %%% \setupinteraction[state=start] \starttext \useattachment[myfile][title][name][att.tex] \attachment[myfile] \stoptext %%% end %%% 1) Using context-current makes 1 attachment, whereas context beta makes 2 attachments (page + attachments tab?). I've attached the two generated PDFs. I guess the "attachments tab" attachment is not intended. 2) The third parameter should give a custom name for the attachment, and I recall this from old times (maybe mkii) to behave like that, though I can't reproduce this now. Is this broken (as it has no effect right now)? 3) I want to have some attachments (source code) from a url, can this be added to behave like \externalfigure? I want to use it like this: "\useattachment[myfile][title][name][http://git.example.com/master/att.tex]" Right now that just attaches an "Unknown" (maybe shortcut) but it cannot be viewed/opened or saved. Thanks Adam

tikz / pgf 2.10: errors
by Christoph Redecker 28 Apr '11

28 Apr '11

When compiling this code \usemodule[pgf] \starttext test \stoptext I get an error: >------snip------> (/apps/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/tex/generic/pgf/systemlayer/pgfsys-pdftex.def (/apps/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/tex/generic/pgf/systemlayer/pgfsys-common-pdf.def) ! Undefined control sequence. \pgfutil@addpdfresource@colorspaces ...olorspaces {#1} l.396 ...rspaces{ /pgfprgb [/Pattern /DeviceRGB] } The latex pendant (even with a tikz picture in it) compiles fine. I have another computer with an older version of pgf, which works well (with context and with latex). After an update to 2.10, context stopped working, latex still does. Is anyone else encountering this problem? Regards, Christoph

Setting footnotes in two columns-> lines not breaking [mkiv]
by C. 28 Apr '11

28 Apr '11

Hello, I already mentioned this some time ago, but I lost track of that email. Since the problem still exists in the after today's update, I'll try again: \setupnote[footnote][n=2] \starttext \dorecurse{6}{\input hawking\footnote{Nevertheless, there must be a line break in the footnotes}} \stoptext Can someone confirm this behavior or even propose a fix? [ConTeXt ver: 2011.04.22 18:17 MKIV] Sorry for the re-post.

Skipping item numbers in an itemized list?
by Alasdair McAndrew 28 Apr '11

28 Apr '11

Hello, The effect I want is something like: 1. First item 2. Second item 5. Fifth item 6. Sixth item 8. Eight item and so on. Every now and then I need to skip a number or two. In LaTeX I could do this with \addtocounter{enumi}{2} - but how is this done in ConTeXt? Thanks very much, Alasdair

Updating contex minimal for Ubuntu 10.10
by Matthieu Stigler 27 Apr '11

27 Apr '11

Hi I just tried to get the most recent version of context minima, following instructions at: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Ubuntu_installation#Maverick_.2810.10.29_with… I get however following message once every thing has run: context --version mtxrun | forcing cache reload resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/usr/local/texmf-local/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/usr/local/texmf-local/web2c/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/usr/local/texmf/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/usr/local/texmf/web2c/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/usr/local/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | resolvers | resolving | warning: no lua configuration files found resolvers | resolving | no texmf paths are defined (using TEXMF) resolvers | resolving | mtxrun | the resolver databases are not present or outdated resolvers | resolving | using suffix based filetype 'lua' resolvers | resolving | using suffix based filetype 'lua' resolvers | resolving | remembered file 'mtx-context.lua' resolvers | resolving | using suffix based filetype 'lua' mtxrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' Any idea what I did wrong? Did I miss a particular step? (I did also luatools --generate and context --make) Thanks!! Matthieu

line numbers in margin from xml in context mkiv
by Jon Crump 27 Apr '11

27 Apr '11

All, After being away from my project for a while I returned to find that something that worked now no longer does. I updated the minimals on my Mac and context is running as I would expect: jjc% context --version mtx-context | main context file: /Users/jjc/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/context.mkiv mtx-context | current version: 2011.04.24 15:15 But now, while running my environment.tex file against my target TEI/xml file context complains: ! Undefined control sequence. l.77 \defineinmargin [lineNumbers] [normal] ? My own fragile understanding of what I'm doing may well be at fault, but perhaps something relevant has changed with the minimals? I had an environment file that I'd arrived at by much trial and error that renders page/line numbers encoded in the xml/TEI source in the margins of my pdf output: \startxmlsetups xml:pb \def\svopage{\xmlatt{#1}{n}.} \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \startluacode function filter(lb) if math.mod(lb,5) == 0 then context.svopage() context(lb) end end \stopluacode \define[1]\MyNumber% {\ctxlua{filter(#1)}\endgraf} \startxmlsetups xml:lb \xmldoifelse{#1}{ancestor::head[@type='diarytitle']} {\\} {\lineNumbers{\tfxx\MyNumber{\xmlatt{#1}{n}}}} \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \defineinmargin [lineNumbers] [normal] Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

Layers again
by Ian Lawrence 26 Apr '11

26 Apr '11

I have a layer that I'd like to appear on some pages but not others, and for which I'd like to switch the content by page. (I need the layer to precisely and reliably locate some graphics. However, as I see it, you can only set the visibility of a layer in \definelayer, \setupbackgrounds - and these ought to preceed \starttext Any pointers / elegant suggestions / neat solutions? Thanks Ian
