(again) bug with bidi direction and \about references
by Pablo Rodriguez 12 Aug '15

12 Aug '15

Hi Hans, sorry for telling again, but I’m afraid that the following sample shows a serious buggy interaction between \setupdirections[bidi=on] and \about references. \setupdirections[bidi=on] \starttext \section[sectionone]{Section one} As said in \dorecurse{5} {\about[sectionone]\footnote{Body reference misplaced.}, } \stoptext Both \about and footnote references in body are misplaced. It would be great, if you could fix this. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

next beta

Hi The next beta will have this (I needed it for a manual): \starttext \starttabulate[||CL{darkred}|CM{darkgreen}CT{white}|CR{darkblue}||] \NC first \NC left \NC middle \NC right \NC last \NC \NR \NC first \NC \color[white]{left} \NC middle \NC \color[white]{right} \NC last \NC \NR \NC first \NC left \NC middle \NC right \NC last \NC \NR \stoptabulate \stoptext i.e. we already had CL CM and CR, so CT is new .. should be wikified.

authors in the toc
by Andrea Valle 11 Apr '15

11 Apr '15

Dear all, as I’m working on a book that is a collection of essays by various authors, I need their names in the toc. I’m using mkiv and the command start chapter, in the first argument specifying the author param. I’ve explored the wiki (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Table_of_Contents) but I don’t get it. Can anyone provide some hints? Thanks a lot! -a- -------------------------------------------------- Andrea Valle -------------------------------------------------- CIRMA - StudiUm Università degli Studi di Torino --> http://www.cirma.unito.it/andrea/ --> http://www.fonurgia.unito.it/andrea/ --> http://www.flickr.com/photos/vanderaalle/sets/ --> http://vimeo.com/vanderaalle --> andrea.valle(a)unito.it -------------------------------------------------- "This is a very complicated case, Maude.

Getting copy-pastable ligatures?
by Gerben Wierda 26 Jan '15

26 Jan '15

I’m using mkii. I’d like ot be able to copy-paste words form the resulting pdf. That works well, except for words that contain ligatures (e.g. fl fi etc.) Is there a way I can tell (Con)TeXt that the result must be copy-pastable. To make matters slightly more complex I’m using Optima, converted on a Mac: \usetypescript[serif,sans,mono] [hanging] [normal] % Bypassing type-gtamacfonts.tex \starttypescript [sans,serif] [optima] [texnansi,ec] \definefontsynonym [Optima-Regular] [\typescriptthree-OptimaRegular] [encoding=\typescriptthree] \definefontsynonym [Optima-Italic] [\typescriptthree-OptimaItalic] [encoding=\typescriptthree] \definefontsynonym [Optima-Bold] [\typescriptthree-OptimaBold] [encoding=\typescriptthree] \definefontsynonym [Optima-BoldItalic] [\typescriptthree-OptimaBoldItalic] [encoding=\typescriptthree] \definefontsynonym [Optima-ExtraBlack] [\typescriptthree-OptimaExtraBlack] [encoding=\typescriptthree] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [sans,serif] [optima] [name] \setups [font:fallback:\typescriptone] \definefontsynonym [\typescriptprefix\typescriptone] [Optima-Regular] \definefontsynonym [\typescriptprefix\typescriptone Italic] [Optima-Italic] \definefontsynonym [\typescriptprefix\typescriptone Bold] [Optima-Bold] \definefontsynonym [\typescriptprefix\typescriptone BoldItalic] [Optima-BoldItalic] \definefontsynonym [\typescriptprefix\typescriptone Black] [Optima-ExtraBlack] \stoptypescript \definetypeface[allsans][rm][serif][optima][default][encoding=texnansi] \definetypeface[allsans][ss][sans][optima][default][encoding=texnansi] \loadmapfile [gtamacfonts.map] \setupbodyfont[allsans,10pt]

Define a new command from the command \periods[n]
by Fabrice Couvreur 19 Jan '15

19 Jan '15

Hi, Is it possible to redefine the command \periods[n] to have a line that goes from the end of the word to the edge of the page without having to play on the number n ? Regards, Fabrice \starttext \startitemize[a][stopper=),style=bold] \item $x\mapsto -x^2+x+1$ : \periods[66] \item $x\mapsto 2x^3+4x-7$ : \periods[65] \item $x\mapsto x^2-3$ : \periods[70] \item $x\mapsto \frac{x^2+x}2$ : \periods[72] \item $x\mapsto (x-2)^2$ : \periods[69] \stopitemize \stoptext

filter module's inline command and supressed spacing
by Piotr Kopszak 19 Jan '15

19 Jan '15

Hello list, It looks like a bug in the filter module, but maybe I'm doing something wrong. Any help will be greatly appreciated. When using the \inlinepandoc command in the first paragraph below the space at the end of the paragraph in "życiaA. Mickiewicza" is supressed when it should be "życia A. Mickiewicza". This does not happen when using pandoc environment. If you want to run the minimal example you have to make sure you got the recent pandoc which supports twiki input format and create the "output" subdirectory in your working directory. Best Piotr ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- \usemodule[filter] \defineexternalfilter [pandoc] [ filter={pandoc -f \externalfilterparameter{format} -t context -o \externalfilteroutputfile}, format=twiki, directory=output, ] \starttext Inne tyt.: Wizyta pana Franciszka Grzymały, Exegi monumentum aere perennius....

Steps in presentation
by pol stra 03 Jan '15

03 Jan '15

Hello, I tried to use some steps in a presentation. In the following conversation http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg53524.html, Wolfgang says that we can use the pre-60 module. So I tried this snippet: \usemodule[pre-stepwise] \starttext \StartSteps \startitemize \item one \FlushStep \item two \FlushStep \item three \FlushStep \stopitemize \StopSteps \stoptext But it does not compile: ConTeXt ver: 2012.09.11 20:36 MKIV fmt: 2012.9.12 int: english/english system > cont-new.mkiv loaded (/opt/context-minimals/texmf-context/tex/context/base/cont-new.mkiv system > beware: some patches loaded from cont-new.mkiv ) fonts > latin modern fonts are not preloaded languages > language en is active (pre60.tex resolvers > modules > loaded: 'pre-stepwise' (/opt/context-minimals/texmf-context/tex/context/base/s-pre-60.mkiv fonts > beware: no fonts are loaded yet, using 'lm mono' in box (/opt/context-minimals/texmf-context/tex/context/base/java-imp-stp.mkiv) interactions > javascripts > loaded: library 'stp' metapost > loaded: library 'nav' (/opt/context-minimals/texmf-context/tex/context/base/meta-imp-nav.mkiv)){/opt/context-minimals/texmf-fonts/fonts/map/pdftex/context/mkiv-base.map} fonts > preloading latin modern fonts (second stage) fonts > typescripts > unknown: library 'loc' {/opt/context-minimals/texmf-fonts/fonts/map/dvips/lm/lm-math.map}{/opt/context-minimals/texmf-fonts/fonts/map/dvips/lm/lm-rm.map} fonts > virtual math > unable to resolve name mapsfromchar fonts > fallback modern rm 12pt is loaded !LuaTeX error: There should have been a lua <node> here, not an object with type string! ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced! Is there something broken in recent release of conteXt? By the way It seems there is no Rawsteps module anymore but it still is in the wiki. Is there is something like a bugtracker for conteXt, in order to signal when a feature is not working or outdated and signal when it is back (or definitly depreciate)? (it would be a complementary tool for the mailing list)
