Commutative diagrams in tikz-cd: for wiki
by Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي حامد 28 Feb '14

28 Feb '14

Dear gang, With a couple of modifications I got tikz-cd (a package to make commutative diagrams for categories and toposes etc. by Florêncio Neves) working in mkiv: http://texdoc.net/texmf-dist/doc/latex/tikz-cd/tikz-cd-doc.pdf It depends on the tikz module, already supported in mkiv. The tikz-cd module is attached, and here is a sample file: =============== \usemodule[tikz] \usetikzlibrary{commute} \starttext \starttikzcd %[ampersand replacement=\&] A \arrow{rd} \arrow[yshift=0.5ex]{r}{\phi} \& B \\ \& C \stoptikzcd \starttikzcd %[ampersand replacement=\&] A \arrow[yshift=1.5ex]{r} \arrow[yshift=0.0ex]{r} \& B \arrow[xshift=0.7ex]{d} \arrow[xshift=-0.7ex]{d} \\ \& C \stoptikzcd \stoptext =============== A couple of things: 1 I had to comment out line 396 of pgfsys-pdftex.def in the tikz module, or else I'd get an undefined control sequence. It's not needed anyway since that's pdftex. 2 In tikzlibrarycommute.code.tex, line 395 I had to add the option ampersand replacement=\& to avoid a TeX error. So you'll have to use '\&' instead of '&' for matrix arrays. 3 Some LaTeX-specific stuff is commented, and support is added for \starttikzcd \stoptikzcd so we get a ConTeXt environment. I'm hoping someone can volunteer to place this on the wiki, perhaps even set it up on the modules page, with an indication of its proper place in the texmf-modules tree etc. Any other improvements will also be appreciated. Enjoy! Best wishes Idris -- Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523

Dear list, with some font sizes, \switchtobodyfont loads Latin Modern Roman instead of the specified typeface: \definefontfamily [firstfamily] [serif] [TeX Gyre Bonum] \definefontfamily [secondfamily] [serif] [TeX Gyre Termes] \setupbodyfont [firstfamily, 60pt] \starttext abc {\switchtobodyfont [secondfamily, 60pt] abc} abc abc {\switchtobodyfont [secondfamily, 50pt] abc} abc \stoptext Kind regards, Joshua Krämer

text sample proposals in Spanish
by Pablo Rodriguez 28 Feb '14

28 Feb '14

Hans, I attach two text samples in Spanish. Both are in the public domain, since both authors died before 1650 and the texts were published the first time more than centuries ago. Would it be possible to have them added to the ConTeXt distribution in the tex/texmf-context/tex/context/sample/ directory? Many thanks thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

using environments with project structure (in MkIV)
by Sanjoy Mahajan 28 Feb '14

28 Feb '14

I'm having trouble using project structure and font loading together in MkIV. Here's how the problem arises. As Aditya and Wolfgang have pointed out, the recommended way to set up fonts in MkIV is before \starttext or \startcomponent. For a component, the setups usually go in an environment file that is referenced by the project file, and the project file is mentioned with a \project, e.g. \startcomponent test \project testproject \input knuth \stopcomponent However, the \project line has to come *after* \startcomponent. If it comes before \startcomponent, then context doesn't process the component file at all, and no PDF file is generated. An example: \project testproject \startcomponent test \input knuth \stopcomponent (with testproject.tex containing \startproject blah \stopproject) A workaround is to replace the \project line with \environment env where env is what testproject would have included anyway. e.g. \environment env \startcomponent test \input knuth \stopcomponent Here, env.tex has all the setups including the font setups (and one would do the same in the product file, i.e. in the file that includes the components, by putting "\environment env" before the \startproduct). The first problem is that it seems some of the functionality of products, projects, and components is lost. But maybe that's a matter of taste. Another problem is that env.tex doesn't know that one is compiling a product or component---thus, the system modes *product and *component are not defined while reading env.tex. Is there another way of doing project structure that I am missing? My update to the wiki page on project structure (on putting \project before \startcomponent) seems to be wrong, and I'll fix it once I understand what to do! -Sanjoy

Problem with Module Units

Hi, I see that there is no space between the words "pour"and "km". Regards, Fabrice \usemodule[units] \definetypeface [me] [rm] [serif] [pagella] [default] \definetypeface [me] [ss] [sans] [dejavu] [default] \definetypeface [me] [mm] [math] [xits] [default] \setupbodyfont[me,12pt] \starttext Zeus désire se désaltérer avec un jus de planète pressée. La planète qu'il va choisir dans le système solaire doit suffire à remplir à ras bord ses deux verres de forme conique. Le premier verre a un rayon de base de 6000 \Unit \Kilo \Meter pour une hauteur égale au rayon de la planète. Le deuxième verre a un rayon de base égal à celui de la planète pour une hauteur de 2000 \Unit \Kilo \Meter. Le but de l'exercice est de trouver quelle planète sera sacrifiée. \stoptext

Footnote mark gap
by Jan Tosovsky 27 Feb '14

27 Feb '14

Dear All, when footnotes are placed after certain accented characters, the corresponding footnote marks are rendered too close to them: \starttext í\footnote{í} T\footnote{T} ľ\footnote{ľ} ě\footnote{ě} ď\footnote{ď} \stoptext Is there any option for making this distance a bit larger? On the other hand this gap may produce too much white space when placed after characters like period or comma... Ideally it could be positioned 'optically' ;-) Regards, Jan

different page sizes on one sheet
by Artur Merke 27 Feb '14

27 Feb '14

hi, i'm new to the list and also pretty new to ConTeXt (but I used LaTeX for a lot of years), but need a quite complicated page setup right in the beginning: i have a combination of two A5 pages and four A6 pages and i'd like to put them on one double sided A4 paper sheet (please use monotyped font to see the scheme correctly) +----------+----------+ | | | | A6 | | | | | +----------+ A5 + | | | | A6 | | | | | +----------+----------+ the same for the back page. in the end cutting the A4 sheet should let the A5 pages and A6 pages undestroyed :-) i have tried combining \setuppaper[nx=2, ny=2, dx=0mm, dy=0mm] \setuparranging[XY] but didn't get a satisfying result because of different page sizes involved ... any ideas? cheers artur ps. here my starting point: \setuppaper[nx=2, ny=2, dx=0mm, dy=0mm] \setuparranging[XY] \showframe[cut=true] \setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape] \starttext Page 1. A5 Portrait \page \setuppapersize[A6][A4] Page 2. A5 Portrait \page Page 3. A6 Portrait \page \setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape] Page 1. backside A5 Portrait \page \setuppapersize[A6][A4] Page 2. backside A5 Portrait \page Page 3. backside A6 Portrait \page \stoptext

unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua'
by Tim Li 27 Feb '14

Hi guys, I haven't played with ConTeXt for three month because of my examinations. Today, I delete the old version and reinstall a new one from the ConTeXt garden, but it seems that the new one can't run successfully. It says that unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua.
