Using Product-component

Has something changed recently on how product-component structure is supposed to be used? I have three files: 1. prd.tex \environment env \startproduct prd \component cmp \stopproduct 2. env.tex \startenvironment env \define\testing{This is a test} \stopenvironment 3. cmp.tex \product prd \startcomponent cmp Testing \testing \stopcomponent When I compile cmp.tex, I get: %--------------------------%<----------------------------- mtx-context | run 1: luatex --fmt="/home/adityam/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f32e/formats/luatex/cont-en" --jobname="cmp" --lua="/home/adityam/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f32e/formats/luatex/cont-en.lui" --no-parse-first-line --c:currentrun=1 --c:fulljobname="./cmp" --c:input="./cmp" --c:kindofrun=1 --c:maxnofruns=8 "cont-yes.mkiv" This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.76.0-2013040516 (rev 4627) \write18 enabled.

Re: [NTG-context] Title of figure not below the figure, but on the right side

So I use now: \definefloat[rightfigure][rightfigure][figure] \setupcaption[rightfigure][location=right] \startplacerightfigure[ title={Tolles Bild}, reference=fig:demo, number=no] {\framed{figure}} \stopplacerightfigure How can I now tell, where to place the figure? There are keys like "here", or "force", or "bottom" and so on, how to use them in this configuration? (my tries failed so far) Huseyin

How to typeset the titlepage and its verso in ConTeXt?
by Tim Li 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

I try to typeset the titlepage and its verso using ConTeXt, but it always generate an empty page on the right if facing. \setupinteraction [state=stop, title=Life in These Days, author=Tim Li] \setupinteractionscreen [option=doublesided] \usetypescript[palatino] \setupbodyfont[palatino,12pt] \setuppagenumbering [location={footer,middle}, alternative=doublesided] \setupmakeup [standard] [pagestate=start] \starttext \startfrontmatter % titlepage \startmakeup[standard] %[doublesided=no] \vskip2in \midaligned{\switchtobodyfont[36pt]\bf Life in These Days} \vfill \midaligned{\switchtobodyfont[20pt]\bf Tim Li} \blank[medium] \midaligned{\switchtobodyfont[20pt]\bf January 11, 2013} \stopmakeup % its verso \startmakeup[standard] %[page=no] This document was typeset by using \CONTEXT. \vfill \stopmakeup % dedication % preface % contents \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter % \stopbodymatter \stoptext If add [doubesided=no] to the first \startmakeup[standard] that produce the titlepage, it will produce a page with page number 2 at the right of the titlepage and the verso of this titlepage will be the next page following page 2. That's not what I want. How to set the options of the \startmakeup so that I can typeset the titlepage with its verso just after it. If so, when the document is printed, the titlepage and its verso will be presented on the same paper like that in the ConTeXt manual(if printed, the tiltepage and its verso of the manual will be on the same paper).

And how to center the complete table on the page? Now I see that \JustCenter does not really center: \starttext \starttable[|l|c|l|] \NC {\bf Column 1} \VL {\bf Column 2} \VL {\bf Column 3} \SR \HL \THREE\JustCenter \it Natürliche Methoden \SR \NC First entry \VL short entry \VL looooooooooooooogn entry \AR \stoptable \stoptext You can see, that "Natürliche Methoden" is not correctly centered. For my purpose, it would be indeed not best to center it with respect to the complete row of the table, but with respect to the middle-column (second one) only. So that "Natürliche Methoden" is directly centered above "short entry". Howto? Thanks. Huseyin

the difference between \def and \define
by Tim Li 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

In plain TeX, we always use \def for creating a new macro, but in ConTeXt, sometimes it won't work, especially when making own chapter titles. The \def can produce the error message like this : "Argument of \... has an extra }". \define in ConTeXt can solve this problem. What's the difference between \def and \define? Can I use \define to replace all \def?

select TOC elements
by Meer, H. van der 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

With \placecontents I am able to put the TOC for a chapter right after the chapter heading. So far so good. But now I would like to suppress in the overall TOC all elements below the chapters. How to? At the moment I am using \completecontent for calling up the TOC. I looked in the ConTeXtGarden but the explanation for \completecontent didn't make me any wiser.For example, I do not understand the meaning of the three successive []-pairs in \completecontent[..][..][..] and the link to \setuplist didn't help me out.

Hi, my table is: \starttext \starttable[|l|l|l|] \NC {\bf Methode} \VL {\bf Relevanz} \VL {\bf Bewertung} \SR \HL \use{3} {\it Natürliche Methoden} \SR \NC Klevirak \VL 5-6 \VL Toll \AR \stoptable \stoptext I know want the spanning column with the entry "Natürliche Methoden" to be aligned in the center ob the cell. Direct trys with \startaligment[center] failed, who knows how? Thanks Huseyin
