Suppressing Page Numbers
by Malte Stien 23 Oct '12

23 Oct '12

Hi, Thank you again for all the great help, I have received here in recent weeks; it is much appreciated. I have page numbering setup in my layout.tex environment file, which I use for all of our documents. % Show the page number in the middle of the footer \setuppagenumbering[ alternative=singlesided, location={header, margin}, style=bold, ] For a particular document, though, I don't want page numbers. Is there a way of locally suppressing the page numbers while still importing (via environment) the layout.tex file? I guess, what I am asking is, is there a way to "override" the setuppagenumbering setup locally? A workaround would be to have a second layout.tex file, just for this document, but I much prefer not to. Regards, Malte.

[test suite] Bibtex-related test fails to compile.
by Marco Pessotto 23 Oct '12

23 Oct '12

I've imported most of the testfiles kindly provided by Hans. Now the test suite has grown to ~900 files. I'm running them in chunks and I'll keep reporting, even if I don't need the feature. If you prefer me to post to another list, please let me know. https://github.com/melmothx/context-unofficial-test-suite/tree/master/src/m… collapse-001.tex fails to compile. See below the log. progressive-005.tex picks a different LM font, but probably because I don't have the required fonts installed and it's using a different one as fallback (I don't know which one is supposed to be the good one, probably noone :-). The other differences are just due to different distances, so I'm promoting them to references.

The one typeset with mkii has the correct output, while the one with mkiv is not correct (the spacing of the bounds of the integrals and the spacing between the integrals when they are invoked with \iint or \iiint are incorrect). (I tried this with ConTeXt version 2012-10-22, 11:01). > The « reference » output should be the file « math-integral-mkii-2012-10-22.pdf » Keep in mind that mkiv and mkii will never produce the same results (e.g.: more granularity in font metrics in mkiv, less juggling with combined shapes in mkiv, etc). SO, it can never be the pixel wise reference. The issue with italic correction is complex. First of all italic corrections are a tex thing while in otf advanced kerning mechanism is used. This means that the engine has to deal with traditional as well ad new mechanisms. In the process of developing luatex and mkiv, we went through several phases, one is that the italic correction had to be added to the width (a handicap is that luatex has to make some guesses, and the mkiv vf is a wide font on the one hand but still a traditional one). Anyhow, already quite a while ago, mkiv got two mechanisms to deal with italic correction, one for text and one for math (otf text fonts have no italic correction). Both mechanism can be configured to adapt themselves to the situation. For math we have 4 variants. \setupmathematics[italics=1] % fontitalics \setupmathematics[italics=2] % fontdata \setupmathematics[italics=3] % quad based \setupmathematics[italics=4] % combination of 1 and 3 \setupmathematics[italics=none] Depending on available italic info or the lack of it, correction is applied. Of course this can be improved. Once they are complete, we can make the new gyre math fonts default and some of the problems will go away. The virtuals will then be kept as an example of defining virtual fonts. Concerning the issue: i removed adding the italic correction to the width (something that was needed in a previous version of luatex).

Color red:3

Hello, there is a color "red:3" noticed at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Colors. However, the following code doesn't work with color "red:3" specification: ---- \starttext \showcolor[rgb] \color[red]{AAA} \color[red:3]{AAA} \stoptext ---- So, how it the matter with using "red:3" correctly? TIA. Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.

Re: [NTG-context] making horizontal space in luacode.

Dear Aditya, Hans Both solutions work well. It is really efficient to write matrix in ConTeXt + lua. I am enjoying the benefit of lua in ConTeXt. Thank you.

I made a backup of the old context version (for Taco: current-backup) and updated to current (2012.05.30 11:26), but it doesn't work at all. It says "pdfcrop failed", but my impression is that not even the temporary folder to store the tex file (and compile the pdf) gets generated. This issue needs Taco's help. (I can easily revert to the old version by renaming the folder, but sooner or later we need to upgrade the version.) I didn't touch wiki sources at all. Mojca

making horizontal space in luacode.
by Jeong Dal 22 Oct '12

22 Oct '12

Dear all, 1. I'd like to make a horizontal space using \hspace[3em] inside luacode. But context.hspace({3em}), context.hspace({"3em"}), context.hspace("3em") don't work. And print(" ") doesn't work either. How to make some horizontal space in luacode? 2. There is no white line even though I put "\blank[big]" between Frame(bring it from MetaFun) and text as in the following example. \starttext %%%%%%%% framed Text \startuseMPgraphic{FunnyFrame} picture p ; numeric o ; path a, b ; pair c ; p := textext.rt(\MPstring{FunnyFrame}) ; o := BodyFontSize ; a := unitsquare xyscaled(OverlayWidth,OverlayHeight) ; p := p shifted (2o,OverlayHeight-ypart center p) ; drawoptions (withpen pencircle scaled 1pt withcolor .625red) ; b := a superellipsed .95 ; %fill b withcolor .85white ; draw b ; b := (boundingbox p) superellipsed .95 ; fill b withcolor .425green;%.85white ; draw b ; draw p withcolor black ; setbounds currentpicture to a ; \stopuseMPgraphic \defineoverlay[FunnyFrame][\useMPgraphic{FunnyFrame}] \defineframedtext[FunnyText][frame=off,background=FunnyFrame, offset=\bodyfontsize, width=\overlaywidth]%.8\textwidth] \def\StartFrame{\startFunnyText} \def\StopFrame {\stopFunnyText} \def\FrameTitle#1% {\setMPtext{FunnyFrame}{\hbox spread 1em{\hss\strut\ss\bf\white #1\hss}}} This is a test line file for blank spaces. \blank[big] % white line is wanted {\FrameTitle{Test} \StartFrame \startitemize[n] \item the first line. \item the second line. \item the third line. \stopitemize \StopFrame } \blank[big] % white line is wanted Here is another test line. \stoptext What should I do to make a blank line before and after Thank you.

Test suite report
by Marco Pessotto 21 Oct '12

21 Oct '12

Hello there. Aditya added a couple of testfiles. Thanks a lot. I encourage anyone reporting bugs to send a minimal example to me too, via mail or via pull requests on github, so people running the tests can catch regressions. I modified the code, so a unique filename for each test is not required anymore. I promoted to references the PDF which have a minimal shifting, because they generated too much noise, but I left one just as a reminder of the different distance between columns. Issue still pending (as far as I know): https://github.com/melmothx/context-unofficial-test-suite/blob/master/src/b… > Number should continue.There are several long lines. Are the numbers correctly > managed with long lines? > \startcode[continue] But it doesn't continue and it's reset to 1. Cheers -- Marco

Re: [NTG-context] Help with Long Titles

Wolfgang, Thank you.

Already tried align=right and align=flushright, none of which worked. I am just guessing here as there does not seem to be any documentation available on \startframed. How can I right-align this?

That way anyone creating a document in my organisation can create a new document and get a consistent look of the title page. There is one problem with this: On occasions I get very long document titles and then the title extends over the left-hand edge of the page. I would like to incorporate a new line into the document title; I'd even be happy to do that manually, ie. it does not have to be automatic. > > There are two problems here: > 1. I had not had any success with putting a newline into the title; it will need to be not where the titlepage is defined but where it is used (see below).

Assuming I found a way to do this, I would need to also find a way of reducing the \blank[170mm] by the amount that the second line of the title takes up to render the information down the bottom in roughly the same place. If push comes to shove, I could create a second titlepage setup for two-line titles, but I much rather not. Is there a solution to that?
