Centered title with numeration on the same line
by honyk 03 Jun '13

Dear All, in MkIV when any title is centered, its numeration is placed on a separate line above the title itself. I'd expect inline formatting which could be overridden as described here http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Titles My code: \setuplabeltext[en][chapter=Chapter~] % while for chapter title this line break is handy (in my use case) \setuphead[chapter][ alternative=middle, style=\bfc, conversion=Romannumerals, numbercommand=\groupedcommand{\cap}{\blank[0.5cm]}, after={\blank[1cm]}, ] % for section it is inappropriate \setuphead[section][ alternative=middle, style=\bfa, sectionsegments=section, % ignore component label ] \starttext \chapter{Foo} \section{The First Section} Text. \stoptext How can I keep numeration and title together? Thanks, Jan

Including a large SVG image
by Sander Maijers 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

Hi, I have a few SVG graphics of multiple megabytes. They contain a lot of objects (text/shapes). All graphics except for one gets properly included in my ConTeXt document. In place of the failed one there the gray placeholder box with 'status unknown'. I noticed that ConTeXt uses Inkscape to convert these SVGs to PDF. Is there a way in which I can increase the timeout for this conversion process? That is just a guess, maybe the problem is due to something else. Best, Sander

character spacing for guillemets in English
by Alan Bowen 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

Is there a global way to insert a very thin (ca 1pt) unbreakable space before a right guillemet and after a left guillemet when the main language and character spacing are English, so that “«” and “»” in my source file are processed properly? The font that I am using puts them too close to the enclosed characters (typically, Greek). Basically, I need to borrow the French spacing for these two characters but have not been able to figure out how to do this from the ConTeXt source files. Alan

How to place page numbers in the margin, at the bottom of the "text" area?
by Marcin Borkowski 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

Hi everybody, I'd like to position page numbers in the margin, at the bottom, but *not* in the footer; instead, I want them to be aligned so that their baseline coincides with the baseline of the last line on the page. Is it possible, and if yes, how? Regards, -- Marcin Borkowski room B3-46, phone no +48 61 829 5375 http://octd.wmi.amu.edu.pl/en/Marcin_Borkowski Adam Mickiewicz University

Two questions about registers
by Marcin Borkowski 02 Jun '13

02 Jun '13

Hi list, I have two questions regarding registers. 1. How to change the title of the register (placed by \completeregister) and its numbering style? (Assume that e.g. I want it to be an unnumbered section and not a numbered chapter.) 2. I'd like my register not to have the headers with subsequent letters of the alphabet. I did [indicator=no] in \setupregister, but still got the *vertical spacing* between gropus of entries beginning with the same letter. Then, I did also [before={}], but then the space between entry groups is actually *smaller* than the usual interline space (confirmed by doing \showgrid). What should I do to prevent this from happening? Regards, -- Marcin Borkowski http://octd.wmi.amu.edu.pl/en/Marcin_Borkowski Adam Mickiewicz University
