Dear Wolfgang, To use the option "title=yes" in enumeration, I have encountered a unwanted result. It display the first letter as a title when I didn't put title. Would you please check the following code? \setupenumerations[location=serried,width=broad,distance=0.5em] \defineenumeration[theorem][text=Satz,title=yes] \defineenumeration[corollary][counter=theorem,text=Korollar] \starttext \starttheorem[title={Pythagoras Theorem}] The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides. \stoptheorem \starttheorem{Pythagoras Theorem} The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides. \stoptheorem \starttheorem %no title is suggested The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides. \stoptheorem \startcorollary The sum of angles of a quadrilateral is 360 degrees. \stopcorollary \stoptext Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

Greetings all, The document element exported by this small example appears to be prematurely closed. Removing either the footnote or the second chapter will hide the problem. Do I have something wrong here?

[***SPAM***] Custom TOC problem
by Michał Goliński 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

Hi, this is the first time I am writing here so let me just say a big THANK YOU for all the awesome work everyone is doing. Now, to the point. I have been trying to customize table of contents with my own commands, yet I get an error that might be from within ConTeXt. The cutomary minimal example follows: \define[3]\M{#3 some #2 magic #1} \setuplist[section][alternative=command,command=\M] \starttext \section{A} \completecontent \stoptext and the error from the log: ConTeXt ver: 2012.03.30 16:16 MKIV fmt: 2012.4.2 int: english/english ............ ! Argument of \M has an extra }. Best regards Michał Goliński

sorting footnotes alphabetically
by Pablo Rodríguez 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

Hi there, I read in strc-not.mkvi that footnotes can be treated as lists. And the reference manual deals in section 12.3 with sorting lists. My basic sample is the following: \definenote[dict] \setupnotation[dict][number=no] \starttext This is my dictionary\dict{dictionary: vocabulario} command\dict{command: orden} for a complex\dict{complex: complejo} text\dict{text: texto}. \stoptext What I'm trying to achieve is that the \dict footnotes are sorted alphabetically. Adding the code from sorted lists, I get the following: \definesorting[meaning][meanings] \setupsorting[meaning][criterium=all] \definenote[dict] \setupnote[dict][number=no,command=\placelistofmeanings] \setupnotation[dict][number=no,command=\meaning] \starttext This is my dictionary\dict{dictionary: vocabulario} command\dict{command: orden} for a complex\dict{complex: complejo} text\dict{text: texto}. \stoptext It compiles fine, but the footnotes aren't alphabetically sorted. Is there any way to achieve this? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

footnotes
by Thomas A. Schmitz 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

hi all, would a kind soul please enlighten me about the new footnote commands? I can't find a way to achieve what I was able to achieve in older versions. The following code is on the wiki. It is supposed to give us the footnote marker aligned with the text area, then some blank space, then the footnote text: \definepapersize[wiki][width=8cm,height=8cm] \setuppapersize[wiki][wiki] \starttext \showframe \setupnote[footnote][margindistance=0em,command=\myfootnotecommand] \setupnotation[footnote][location=left,hang=1] \def\myfootnotecommand#1{\hbox to 1.5em{#1.}} test \footnote{test} \stoptext It doesn't work with the current beta, and I' completely lost about \setupnote[footnote] \setupnotation[footnote] \setupfootnotes What is doing what now? Thanks! Thomas

setupinterlinespace top and height relations
by Eidenbenz Michael 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

hi all, As a grid system fetishist, I would like to align the top of my first line with the top of the layout frame. Using try and error (still a context newbie) I managed this by "\setupinterlinespace [height=.5, top=.7]". this seems strange to me, because i was expecting that the argument top is the only one that controls \topskip. Is there a graphic that shows the relation between the arguments of setupinterlinespace? best michael \setupbodyfont [palatino, 10pt] \setupinterlinespace [height=.5, top=.7] \showframe \starttext \beginofshapebox \input zapf \endofshapebox \reshapebox{\hbox{\red\ruledhbox{\black\box\shapebox}}} \flushshapebox \stoptext

Figures alignment on grid
by Honza Hejzl 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

Hello ConTeXists, My questions are still without any response. I am not sure why, maybe they are not clearly explained. I have found two problems about figures: 1) It is impossible to achieve proper text wrapping around figure when the GRID is ON. I have tried more suggestions (see my source). 2) The second thing is there is no way how to change alignment in captions. \enableregime[utf] \mainlanguage[en] \setuppapersize[A5][A5] \definefloat[figure][figures] \setuplayout[grid=yes] \setupcaption[figure][% align=left, %align=right, style=\ss, distance=2pt,before={\noindent}] \showgrid \starttext \input tufte %\movesidefloat[x=10pt,y=-40pt] %\movesidefloat[3*line] %\hangsidefloat[3] \placefigure[left]{sdf}{\externalfigure[none][height=3cm]} \input tufte \stoptext Any help appreciated.

\setuppagenumber
by Alan Bowen 02 Apr '12

I have a product file \startproduct prd_Aestimatio_vol-09 %prelims \setuppagenumber[numberconversion=romannumerals] \setuppagenumber[number=1] \setupfootnotes[conversion=numbers] \component c_A \component c_B \component c_C ... %text \setuppagenumber[numberconversion=numbers] \setuppagenumber[number=1] \resetnumber[footnote] \component c_2012-01_Author1.tex ... \stopproduct It compiled nicely before; but now, with the latest beta (2012.03.30 16:16), the page number of the Author1 file is 18 and not 1. The switch from roman to arabic numerals is OK. Has the been some refinement of the command? Alan
