Is it possible with this table-environment to create a table, where not all four horizontal and vertical lines are set? For example like: \starttext \starttable[|l|c|l|] \NC Blub1 \VL Blub2 \VL Blub3 \AR \HL \NC Lalala \VL Brumm \VL Boff \AR \HL \stoptable \stoptext Huseyin

I do not understand what the pt-Values do in your example, if I change them, nothing happens. Huseyin

In this example \starttext \starttable[|l|c|l|] \HL \NC \THREE\JustCenter \it Natürliche Methoden \NC \AR \HL \stoptable \stoptext (which, by the way, gives an syntax-error with "\startTABLE") the entry "Natürliche Methoden" is not perfectly vertically centered. The distance above to the horizontal line is (very) little smaller than the distance at the bottom. How to correct that? Perfectly it would be exactly reversed, the distance above should be smaller, than at the bottom. Huseyin

For example, you can write: > > \startTABLE > \NC First Entry \\ (Explanation) \NC Second Entry \NC \NR > \stopTABLE Thanks Aditya. Can you give me a short reference to understand the difference, what is "Natural Table"? Is it the same as \placetable[][]{}{\starttable[]....\stoptable} ? Huseyin

Line break in a cell of a table
by "H. Özoguz" 17 Apr '13

17 Apr '13

Good morning together, I want this: \starttext \starttable[|l|l|] \HL \NC First Entry \\ (Explanation) \VL Second Entry \AR \HL \stoptable \stoptext That is, line break after "First Entry", but without leaving the first cell (first row, first column). The code does not work, how to? Thanks. Huseyin

bibliography: minimal entry
by Xenia 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

Dear context list, I would like to create very simple bibliography entries containing only the title and 1 other information (for example institution). I can not use existing types like article because it would produce superfluous full stops where I left things out. How can this be done easily? Thanks, Xenia

possible ligaturing bug with EB Garamond * clig
by Philipp Gesang 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

Hi, with EB Garamond Italic and contextual ligatures I get a weird duplicate “s” for the pairing “us”: ······································································· \starttext \definefontfeature[default][default][clig=yes] \definedfont[ebgaramond12italic*default at 42pt] %definedfont[ebgaramond08italic*default at 42pt] foo us bar ss fi ffi ffl fj\endgraf Thus, I came to the conclusion ... \stoptext ······································································· Occurs in Context and Luatex-Fonts, not only on my machine. Can some confirm this? Also I’d like to know if that’s a bug in the font or the font loader. Thanks Philipp [1] Version 0.015 from here: http://www.georgduffner.at/ebgaramond/download.html

I tried to find the definition of \completecontent in the source, but searching for it doesn't turn up its occurence. Where do I have to look? Hans van der Meer

tekst before \starttext?
by Meer, H. van der 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

I thought that typesetting should start after \startext and that anything before it should be ignored. That is indeed the case with the following input: ABC \starttext CONTENT \stoptext But add a \setupbodyfont and suddenly the ABC appears: \setupbodyfont[lmodern] ABC \starttext CONTENT \stoptext Is this correct behaviour? It is a nuisance because this phenomenon causes a spurious blank page appears in my book. It might be a recently introduced because I did not experience this in the past.

[***SPAM***] Centering a figure in a frame
by "H. Özoguz" 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

Hi, one more shorty today: \starttext \placefigure[here,nonumber]{}{\framed[frame=on, offset=3mm]% {\externalfigure[testbild][width=8cm,scale=2000]}} \stoptext That gives a frame around a figure. But the figure is not perfectly centered in the frame, not all four sides have 3mm, the upper distance of the frame is smaller than the lover distance. How to correct that? Huseyin
