In the current beta/nightly, \placelist has stopped working. Other parameters don't matter--the command just doesn't work, period.

\description - indenting lines from the 2nd
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Hello, what option(s) to use with \definedescription if I'd like to get the following shape (attempt to ACSII art): XXXXXX blablabla blablabla bla blabla. | | |-| A constant of indenting - to be specified by the user. | | |<------------>| Text width. I inspired by wiki (the code bellow) but shapes I got could be illustrated: \A: XXXXXX blablabla blablabla bla blab- la. | | |<--->| Indenting given by the width of the head - unwanted. \B=\C: XXXXXX blablabla blablabla bla blab- la. | | |<--->| Indenting given by the width of the head - unwanted. | | |-] The "margin" option affects indenting of the whole description - unwanted, I want to indent only lines from the 2nd. I tried some combinations of options - location, width, margin - nothing leads to the desired form. My trials e.g.: ---- \definedescription[A][headstyle=bold,location=hanging,width=fit,] \definedescription[B][headstyle=bold,location=hanging,width=fit,margin=1cm,] \definedescription[C][headstyle=bold,location=hanging,width=fit,margin=1cm,command=\hskip-1cm] \starttext \input tufte \A{Short} This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it. The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented. \A{Rather longer label} This is a longer item label. As you can see, the text is not started a specified distance in -- unlike with other lists -- but is spaced a fixed distance from the end of the label. \input tufte \B{Short} This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it. The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented. \B{Rather longer label} This is a longer item label. As you can see, the text is not started a specified distance in -- unlike with other lists -- but is spaced a fixed distance from the end of the label. \input tufte \C{Short} This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it. The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented. \C{Rather longer label} This is a longer item label. As you can see, the text is not started a specified distance in -- unlike with other lists -- but is spaced a fixed distance from the end of the label. \stoptext ---- Any idea how to obtain the form described above? TIA. Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.

And you are right - sorting the results from newest to oldest would be an improvement. And I just changed the code a littlebit - and now you will find everything in the mailinglist starting at the ConTeXt-commands in the Wiki. Try it: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Category:Commands With a little help of some ConTeXters more ... we can improve the ConTeXt-documentation much more. At this point you can help to categorize some commands: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Category:Commands Regards Jannis -- Better organization and integration of all ConTeXT-information: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Category:ConTeXt ............

Integration of the ConTeXt-Wiki and the ConTeXt-Mailinglist
by Jan Heinen 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Hello, in the wiki I have built links for every command to the archiv of the ConTeXt-Mailinglist: e.G. http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/pagereference See at the bottom. It's not perfekt jet - but it helps to get more information to each command and to integrate the wiki and the mailinglist. What do you think about this and could it be improved? Maybe we should give ConTeXt-beginners this hint when they ask questions in the mailinglist - what do you think?

Dear Wolfgang, Thank you for the explanation. The optional title for theorem is very useful in many ways. I hope that it is added to the new code soon. Best regards, Dalyoung

\doteq math symbol is hidden in standalone minimals
by Jaroslav Hajtmar 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

Hello all, What is the problem when \doteq math symbol is hidden in standalone ConTeXt (minimals) - latest version? I suppose that is a problem in mathematical font. Can this be solved? In ConTeXt MKIV TL2011 everything runs normally. Here is my example: \starttext \startformula Hv \doteq 0,102 \cdot \frac{2 \cdot F \cdot \sin\frac{θ}{2}}{d^2} \doteq 0,1891 \cdot \frac{F}{d^2} \stopformula \stoptext Thanx Jaroslav Hajtmar

Troubles with paragraph width in tabulate
by Willi Egger 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

Hi, I think there is a bug in the tabulate environment. When setting two columns with the p template without giving a width, all is well. However is I set the paragraph width to a specific value things go wrong. Please refer to the small example thereunder: \starttext \starttabulate[|p|p|] \NC first \NC \input ward \NC\NR \NC \input ward \NC second \NC\NR \stoptabulate \starttabulate[|p(3cm)|p(5cm)|] \NC first \NC \input ward \NC\NR \NC \input ward \NC second \NC\NR \stoptabulate \stoptext Willi

Citation of two books with extra information
by Steffen Fritzsche 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

Hi all, is it possible to cite two books and include page information for each of them. To give an example I'm looking for something like \cite[extras={, p. 123}, extras={, p. 456}][BookOne:2000, BookTwo:1900] which should be processed as (BookOne Authors, 2000, p. 123 and BookTwo Authors, 1900, p. 456) This does not work because the first "extras" is overridden with the second. It's possible to append Information to the second citation but not to the first or to both. Any suggestions how I might achieve this? Thanks! Steffen

Hey list, I am having difficulty getting my table to split across page boundaries. It doesn't have, nor need, headers, but just individual unrelated rows. Here is a minimal illustrating the problem I am having: \starttext Here is some text. \placetable[force,nonumber,right]{} { \bTABLE[width=0.25\textwidth,split=yes] \setupTABLE[column][1] [align={middle,lohi}, style=\bfxx, width=2.3cm] \setupTABLE[column][2] [align=flushleft, option=stretch] \setupTABLE[each][each] [style=\tfxx] \bTABLEbody \dorecurse{100}{ \bTR \bTC body \eTC \bTC body \eTC \eTR } \eTABLEbody \eTABLE } \stoptext -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com
