frac and tfrac with sqrt
by Mikael P. Sundqvist 07 Oct '14

07 Oct '14

Hi! Is this (see frac.pdf) the expected output of \frac and \tfrac in combination with \sqrt? To me the \sqrt{3} looks too big in \tfrac. I attach also the output from the corresponding latex document, having the result I expect. Best regards, Mikael PS Compilation done with latest standalone

Re: [NTG-context] Animation captions (was: error in animation)

Deat Hraban and Otared, > > I wikified that, but didn’t test: > http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Animation > I read the wiki page and it is explained well about the animation. Also, thank you for introducing cites for making movies. It looks very nice but it would be a painful job, I think. > Indeed a very nice feature in ConTeXt. > I tested Wolfgang’s example with math formulas and the result is very good: however it seems that one has to fix the width of the caption by saying > \definepairedbox[animationtext][location=top,align=middle,width=\textwidth] > Otherwise the formulas are cut. > Thank you for mentioning the option \textwidth also. For graphic animation, it is good to resize the width according to the width of the figure so that the caption is located within the width of the figure. Thank Wolfgang and Hans for this nice feature and ConTeXt! It makes my class materials fancy. Best regards, Dalyoung

Dear Wolfgang, I tested after inserting figures instead of letters in your sample code and it also works fine. It is so nice to know the way of using caption in the animation module. Thank you for your help. Best regards, Dalyoung %%%%%%%%% \usemodule[animation] \useMPlibrary[dum] \setupinteraction[state=start] \definepairedbox[animationtext][location=top,align=middle] \starttext \startanimation {\placeanimationtext{The letter a}{\externalfigure[dummy]}} {\placeanimationtext{The letter b}{\externalfigure[dummy]}} {\placeanimationtext{The letter c}{\externalfigure[dummy]}} {\placeanimationtext{The letter d}{\externalfigure[dummy]}} \stopanimation \stoptext

spacing with enumeration...
by Willi Egger 05 Oct '14

05 Oct '14

Dear helpers in the field… I have a project where I use an enumeration. However what I needed to do is to make the spacing before, in-between and after smaller than it is in the standard definition. All my attempts to get this right failed. May be one of you can help me further? Willi \defineenumeration [OtherMeaning] [text=, headstyle=normal, alternative={left}, %,serried distance=0pt, width=20pt, stopper=\high{o}, inbetween=] \starttext {\bf Ton} \startnarrower \startOtherMeaning Inhoudsmaat van een schip, die 1000 kilo \dots \stopOtherMeaning \startOtherMeaning Tonvormige boei \dots \stopOtherMeaning \stopnarrower {\bf Tong,} z. n. v. \startnarrower Split van een standaard. \dots \stopnarrower \stoptext

TikZ: "align=left" does not work
by Joshua Krämer 05 Oct '14

05 Oct '14

Dear list, there seems to be a bug regarding the alignment of text inside nodes. If the TikZ picture is inside a centered or ragged left environment, "align=left" is not interpreted correctly. MWE attached. Kind regards, Joshua \usemodule[tikz] \starttext \setupalign [right] Ragged right alignment \starttikzpicture \node [draw=red, text width=5cm, align=left] at (0, 1) {left}; \node [draw=red, text width=5cm, align=center] at (0, 2) {center}; \node [draw=red, text width=5cm, align=right] at (0, 3) {right}; \stoptikzpicture \setupalign [center] Centered alignment \starttikzpicture \node [draw=red, text width=5cm, align=left] at (0, 1) {left}; \node [draw=red, text width=5cm, align=center] at (0, 2) {center}; \node [draw=red, text width=5cm, align=right] at (0, 3) {right}; \stoptikzpicture \setupalign [left] Ragged left alignment \starttikzpicture \node [draw=red, text width=5cm, align=left] at (0, 1) {left}; \node [draw=red, text width=5cm, align=center] at (0, 2) {center}; \node [draw=red, text width=5cm, align=right] at (0, 3) {right}; \stoptikzpicture \stoptext

whitespace in \setuplist[chapter]
by Pablo Rodriguez 05 Oct '14

05 Oct '14

Dear list, I have the following sample: \startsetups[setups:chapterlist] \setupwhitespace[10*big] \stopsetups \setuplist[chapter][setups=setups:chapterlist] \starttext \completecontent \dorecurse{50}{\chapter{My Chapter}} \stoptext I thought that setups were the right way to setup whitespace in TOC, but it doesn’t seem to work. Which is the right way to do it? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
