Forcing a subheading page break
by Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي ح امد 23 Aug '14

23 Aug '14

Dear Syndicate, \setuphead[chapter,section,subsection][page=yes] does not force the first subheading to have its own page: See attached, pages~1, 4, and 7... What do I need to get *every* heading in \setuphead to be started on a new page, including the first instance? Thanks and Best wishes Idris -- Idris Samawi Hamid Professor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523

\stopquotation and \endnote
by Gerben Wierda 22 Aug '14

22 Aug '14

Is it possible to use \startquotation..\stopquotation and have an endnote number follow the closing ''? If the \endnote is before \stopquotation, it ends up inside the '' character at the end. If it is after \stopquotation, it becomes the beginning of the next paragraph. G

[doifinset] how it works ?
by Pierre-François Bonnefoi 22 Aug '14

22 Aug '14

Hello, I'm currently prepping my teaching material for my back-to-university. I want to design some conditional slides based presentation where I can select the slides that I want to show in my final presentation. My current attempt is to use : 1 - MKIV as I use currently only MKII; 2 - a counter is defined, that it is incremented at each slide definition; 3 - a commalist to indicate the slides that I want. The number affected to each slide is made according to its definition in the file and not the slide number displayed; 4 - a block is added to enclosed each slide in order to allow or not it to be shown in the final presentation. \definenumber[slide][way=bytext,prefix=no] % firstly I generate a full commalist \def\slidelist{} \dorecurse{8}{ \doglobal\appendtocommalist{#1}\slidelist } % then I define my slide where I increment the counter \def\startSlide{\setupbackgrounds[page][background={fond,Auteur,backgraphics,foreground,foregraphics}] \directsetup{slide:start}} \def\stopSlide{\directsetup{slide:stop}} \startsetups slide:start \page \incrementnumber[slide] \switchtobodyfont[14pt] \setupinteractionbar[state=start] \startnarrower[left] \stopsetups \startsetups slide:stop \stopnarrower \page \stopsetups \starttext \doifinset{\getnumber[slide]}{\slidelist} { \startSlide \SlideTitleSub{Hello there} What is my number ? \getnumber[slide] ! \stopSlide } \stoptext This doesn't work. the "doifinset" doesn't work. I've tried to put some \expanded in order to expand the arguments with no success. The only way is to use direct argument as : \doifinset{1}{1,2,3,4,5} Let me know it it is possible. best regards, Pierre-François Bonnefoi. -- Bonnefoi Pierre-Francois | E-mail : bonnefoi(a)unilim.fr http://libpfb.so/ Universite de Limoges, Laboratoire XLIM | Tel : 06 28 18 03 38 123 av Albert Thomas | Mrs. Peel, we're needed... 87060 Limoges CEDEX - FRANCE | The Avengers.

keeping TABLE in hmode
by Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي ح امد 22 Aug '14

22 Aug '14

Dear gang, Is there a way to configure \bTABLE-\eTABLE so that it always in hmode? Right now I have things like \startalignment[middle] \dontleavehmode \bTABLE \bTR :: \eTR \eTABLE \dontleavehmode \bTABLE \bTR :: \eTR \eTABLE \dontleavehmode \bTABLE \bTR :: \eTR \eTABLE \stopalignment Will have dozens and dozens of these; and don't wish to have to keep typing '\dontleavehmode' over and over...
