Exported figures
by Aditya Mahajan 05 Sep '11

05 Sep '11

Hi Hans, Two bugs in figure export: 1. If one uses images without extension, then the generated \jobname-images.css file does not contain any extensions; so no figures are shown in the output. One possible fix is to change \dotagfigure in back-ini.mkiv to \appendtoks % we can have differently scaled images \def\dotagfigure{\taggedctxcommand{settagfigure(,"\figurefullname","\figurefilepage",\number\dimexpr\figurewidth,\number\dimexpr\figureheight)}}% \to \everyenableelements % \figurefullname instead of \figurefileoriginal 2. What is the best way to handle multipage pdf images? I frequently create a big pdf with many images and then use \externalfigure[...][page=2] I don't know if svg has support for multiple pages or not. Aditya~

Calligraphic math alphabet with xits
by Aditya Mahajan 04 Sep '11

04 Sep '11

Hi, There are two calligraphic shapes in math, calligraphic (e.g., \cal) and script (e.g., \scr from RSFS). The default shape of \cal with xits is more like RSFS \scr than \cal. Does xits also have a less stylistic variant for calligraphic letters? If so, how can I select that? Aditya

Hi, I use \smash[]{..} quite often and noticed some expansion problems with it. Can \smash be defined as [supp-box.mkiv] \unexpanded\def\smash {\futurelet\nexttoken\dosmash} ??? Regards, Peter

\type{} in bold mode
by pmlists＠free.fr 02 Sep '11

02 Sep '11

Hello, When the current font-switch is bold, I would like the verbatim text inside \type{} to respect the bold mode. What is the right way to teach \type{} to automatically use bold or not? Example: \starttext \section{Problem:} {not bold, \type{not bold, ok} // \bf bold, \type{should be bold too}} \section{Workaround:} {not bold, \type{not bold, ok} // \bf bold, {\tt is bold too}} \stoptext TIA for any help! -- Peter

Hello, something is awfully wrong with placement of indexes next to integration signs in MKIV (2011.08.27 13:24): \startformula \int_0^{d_0} \stopformula I can attach screenshot if needed, but I guess that it is reproducible ... Mojca

Text Colour
by Kip Warner 31 Aug '11

31 Aug '11

Hey folks, How do I set the body text foreground colour? I tried the following, but it just ignored it: \definecolor[colour_text][r=0.754,g=0.516,b=0.324] \setupbodyfontenvironment [default] [em=italic, color=colour_text] I don't want to have to use \startcolor and \stopcolor every time I wish this default to be applied. -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com

Questions related to margin/dynamic layout
by Yue Wang 29 Aug '11

29 Aug '11

Hi, I have two questions related to margin: - is it possible to move footnotes to margin? - similar question: I want to have a list in the margin with all the indexes in the given page. How to make these possible? Third question is related to layout. I know how to change page layout for a particular page. but how to change layout for a page whose number is unknown? for example, I am writing a book that has several large pictures (imagine a portfolio, or a book introducing photography). in order to fit the pictures I plan to set each pictures as page background or layers, that spans 3/2 pages, while leaving the remaining span (1/2 page) for text. however, I don't know which page number the picture should be reside, but I know it should be put near some given text content. it's not possible to manually give the page number according to the content because usually document context/formatting change all the time. how to do that? Thanks.
