Heading followed by itemize: how to keep them together?
by Gerben Wierda 20 Aug '14

20 Aug '14

When I have: \subsubsection{Foo} \startitemize[joinedup,packed] \item Bar \item Bar \item Bar \stopitemize TeX may put a page break between the heading and the paragraph. Is there a way to prevent this? I tried \subsubsection{Foo}\page[no] \startitemize[joinedup,packed] \item Bar \item Bar \item Bar \stopitemize and \subsubsection{Foo} \startitemize[joinedup,packed]\page[no] \item Bar \item Bar \item Bar \stopitemize but both did not work. I can of course force with \page[yes]\subsubsection{Foo} \startitemize[joinedup,packed] \item Bar \item Bar \item Bar \stopitemize but that is not ribust under change in the document. G

Hi, $\overbar{OA'} = 3,4$, puts me overbar with two steps: one for $O$ and one for $A'$. Is there any way for putting overbar just "on top" of the expression? Thanks, Xan PS: Please CCme

weird interference in xml processing
by Thomas A. Schmitz 20 Aug '14

20 Aug '14

Hi, I encounter a weird interference when setting xml entities. Minimal example: \startbuffer[test] <a> test &sim; test </a> \stopbuffer \startxmlsetups xml:testsetups \xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument}{a}{xml:*} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregistersetup{xml:testsetups} \startxmlsetups xml:a \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \xmltexentity{sim}{\getglyph{name:texgyretermesmath}{\char"223C}} \starttext \xmlprocessbuffer{main}{test}{} \stoptext Instead of the expected symbol, I get a grave accent with recent context betas (it works with betas until mid-June). When I try the command \getglyph{name:texgyretermesmath}{\char”223C} in a normal context document, I get the expected output. What is happening here? All best Thomas

Fancybreak - no hope?
by Werner Hintze 20 Aug '14

20 Aug '14

Hi Wolfgang, I forgot to tell, what happes, when I try to compile your example. It’s just the same: There is a message in the log file: »Module already loaded« and the next one about fancybreak is »undefined control sequence«. What can this mean? Here is the log: open source > 1 > 1 > /usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/cont-yes.mkiv ConTeXt ver: 2014.05.21 22:04 MKIV beta fmt: 2014.8.19 int: english/english system > 'cont-new.mkiv' loaded open source > 2 > 2 > /usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/cont-new.mkiv close source > 2 > 2 > /usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/cont-new.mkiv system > files > jobname 'Untitled', input './Untitled', result 'Untitled' fonts > latin modern fonts are not preloaded languages > language 'en' is active open source > 2 > 3 > /Users/whintze/Desktop/LatexTests/Untitled.tex resolvers > modules > 'fancybreak' is already loaded fonts > preloading latin modern fonts (second stage) fonts > 'fallback modern-designsize rm 12pt' is loaded open source > 3 > 4 > /usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf-dist/tex/context/sample/knuth.tex close source > 3 > 4 > /usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf-dist/tex/context/sample/knuth.tex tex error > error on line 7 in file /Users/whintze/Desktop/LatexTests/Untitled.tex: !

contextref.pdf unsearchable?
by Gerben Wierda 19 Aug '14

19 Aug '14

I have two manuals, cont-enp.pdf (2001) and contextref.pdf (2013). I often have to go to cont-enp.pdf because contextref.pdf is unsearchable. Is it indeed unsearchable? Or is something wrong at my end? G

I was not forgetting what you describe. Worse, I had not taken any notice, just accepting the default distances as they appeared, which generally seemed OK. I hope to be a bit ConTeXt-wiser now.

It may be OK by the following: After checking files /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/doc/context/third/fancybreak/fancybreak-doc.pdf /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/doc/context/third/fancybreak/README /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/context/interface/third/t-fancybreak.xml /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/context/third/fancybreak/t-fancybreak.mkii /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/context/third/fancybreak/t-fancybreak.mkvi (1) sudo mktexlsr (2) context --generate Best, Akira

Center alignment within TABLE
by Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي ح امد 18 Aug '14

18 Aug '14

Dear syndicate, I'm stumped trying to get the first two cells of the following TABLE aligned to the center: ====================== \define[3]\Glyphbox {\framed[frame=on,align=middle]\bgroup {#1\\ #2\\ #3% \egroup}} \starttext \setupTABLE[frame=on,align=middle] \bTABLE \bTR \bTD \Glyphbox{I}{a}{1} \eTD \bTD \Glyphbox{I}{a}{1} \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD \Glyphbox{III}{aaa}{111} \eTD \bTD \Glyphbox{III}{aaa}{111} \eTD \eTR \eTABLE \stoptext ====================== See also attached pdf. No what I've tried (\setupTABLE) the first two cells remain flushleft. Even with \setupTABLE[frame=on,align=flushright] the two cells in the top row remain flushleft. Thanks in advance for any advice and Best wishes Idris -- Idris Samawi Hamid Professor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523

Intsalling modules - once more
by Werner Hintze 18 Aug '14

18 Aug '14

If nobody can tell me how to install the module ”fancybreak« on Mac OS (may be the question is too stupid), can anybody tell me where I find the needed information? The wiki doesn't help me because I don’t know $TEXMF. Thanks! WH P.S.: I had no problem to install the module in the stand alone version. The problem is about the »normal« distribution (TexLive).

TEX and XML typing with trailing interline space
by Christoph Reller 18 Aug '14

18 Aug '14

Hi, How do I get rid of the additional line inserted at the end of a TEX or XML environment? Minimal working example: \starttext \setuptyping[TEX][before=,after=] % <- trailing interline space \hrule \startTEX \TeX \stopTEX \hrule \medskip \setuptyping[XML][before=,after=] % <- trailing interline space \hrule \startXML <tag></tag> \stopXML \hrule \medskip \setuptyping[before=,after=] % <- works as expected \hrule \starttyping \TeX \stoptyping \hrule \stoptext Thank you for any advice!
