Long sectiontitle with line-break in index of contents
by "H. Özoguz" 27 Nov '12

27 Nov '12

Hi there, today many questions :) Look at this: \starttext \completecontent \section[ title={A very long title\par with a formatting in it} ] \stoptext I have a case, where I want to have a line-break (\par) in the title in the text (to avoid hyphenation) - but not in the index of contents - there it should be simply like: \starttext \completecontent \section[ title={A very long title with a formatting in it} ] \stoptext Huseyin

Hi, What is modern way to see the list of available fonts? "mtxrun --script fonts --list" does not work anymore. Seems like a lot changed while I was not paying attention to ConTeXt ) Regards, Vyatcheslav

Line break in header

How to allow line break in headers, to achieve not margined header-texts? ++++++++++++ \setupheadertexts [] [{\getmarking[section]}] [][] \starttext \section{This is a very long section title, and so, clearly, it does not fit in one line, definitely not, absolutely no change. Without line break not possible.} \stoptext +++++++++++ Thanks Huseyin

Change the title of the index of contents

I use \completecontent - in German the title is printed as "Inhalt", how to change that? (f.e.: to "Inhaltsverzeichnis") Thanks Huseyin

The text itself for the frame is put in a framedtext environment. Wolfgang

"verbatim boxes"
by Erik Margraf 26 Nov '12

26 Nov '12

Dear List, is there a Context function/macro which enables me to set a box with verbatim file input. I.e. something similar to : \setbox\scratchbox\hbox{\verbatimfileinput{FileName}} regards Erik

error when using externalfigure
by Pavel Dohnal 26 Nov '12

26 Nov '12

Hello, I have a big context source file which contains pictures from different sources. The problem is, that there are some pictures the context cannot process. It displays an error message and ends. I run the context from another script in batchmode. After finishing, the context creates a PDF file, which contains this problematic picture but the pdf is broken. It does not have numbers in the table of contents and it is not arranged by setup. Here is a minimal example: \starttext \externalfigure[ http://cdn-locations-images.tripomatic.com/img-poi1295-5ZTynx-s.jpg][width=… ] \stoptext When I run the context, it prints: ! Dimension too large. system > tex > error on line 1 in file a.tex: Dimension too large ... 1 >> \starttext 2 \externalfigure[ http://cdn-locations-images.tripomatic.com/img-poi1295-5ZTynx-s.jpg][width=… ] 3 \stoptext 4 \relocateexternalfigure ...d \foundexternalfigure \bgroup \box \foundexterna... l.1 \relocateexternalfigure \calculateexternalfigure ...ua {figures.include()} \ctxlua {figures.scale()}\... \dodoplaceexternalfigure ...[][#1][#2][#3][#4][#5] \dotagfigure \naturalvbox ... <argument> ...1295-5ZTynx-s.jpg][][width=26.5mm][] \fi \firstofoneargument #1->#1 Because I have several thousands pictures, it is impossible for me to correct them all. Is it somehow possible to run the context so that it ignores the problematic pictures? Thank you Pavel Dohnal

print context version
by Thomas A. Schmitz 26 Nov '12

26 Nov '12

Hi all, this is a very easy one, but I couldn't find information: for a document under version control, I would like to typeset the git revision and the context version used in a footer. For git, I have come up with \starttext git revision \ctxlua{context(os.resultof("git --no-pager log --pretty='\%h of \%aD' -1"))} \stoptext But what is the easiest way to typeset the context version? There must be something easier than \ctxlua{context(os.resultof("context --version | grep current"))}, right? All best Thomas
