Nested \startitemize[columns] breaks tagging
by Christoph Reller 06 Jan '15

06 Jan '15

Hi, Another MWE that breaks tagging: \setuptagging[state=start] \starttext \startchapter[title=Chapter] \startitemize \item Text \startitemize[columns] \item Text \stopitemize \stopitemize \stopchapter \startchapter[title=Next Chapter] Text \stopchapter \stoptext This time the structure tree is affected. The resulting tree (roughly) is the following: /document /section (chapter) /sectionnumber 1 /sectiontitle Chapter /sectioncontent /itemgroup (itemize) /item /itemtag/math/mrow/mo • /itemcontent Text /itemgroup (itemize) /itemgroup (itemize) /item /itemtag/math/mrow/mo − /itemcontent Text /section (chapter) /sectionnumber 2 /sectiontitle Next Chapter /sectioncontent Text Note that the second chapter is located within the first chapter. I hope that this can be fixed easily. Thank you for any effort, Christoph

A few tools new to me in there! I am wondering (and will try to find) if multiple paths could be contained in the external file— a marker and test structure? Thanks again, John

Maximum width of a caption
by Mojca Miklavec 05 Jan '15

05 Jan '15

Hi, Is there any way to set the maximum width of a caption? I would like to make sure that no figure caption exceeds, say, 75% of text width. Here's an example of "bad behaviour" in the second figure: \starttext \reservefigure [width=5cm,height=2cm,frame=on][force] {Some very small figure with not too much text: OK} \input tufte This can hardly be distinguished from the main text: \reservefigure [width=\textwidth,height=.2\textwidth,frame=on][force] {\input tufte} \input tufte Desired behaviour: \placefigure[force]{\input tufte} {\hbox to .75\textwidth{\hss\framed[width=\textwidth,height=.2\textwidth]{}\hss}} \input tufte \stoptext I've seen an option maxwidth, but only in connection to \externalfigure[...][maxwidth=...]. I can cheat as on the third figure above, but that seems like an ugly approach to me. Thank you, Mojca

Reading the file into lua tables is good sense, and thank you for the string manipulations to pass to metafun(). From your teaching I changed this assignment: > t1 = tostring(x[1]) > t2 = tostring(y[1]) > s = s.."("..t1.."cm,"..t2.."cm)" > s = s.." withpen pencircle scaled 1bp;" to: s = s.."cycle withpen pencircle scaled 1bp;” to close the polygon. With respect, John

plot data from file: cld

Dear John, > How to make this a polygon? An example: \starttext \startluacode local metafun = context.metafun metafun.start() io.input("DATA") local i, j local x, y, s, t1, t2 i = 1 x={} y={} s="draw " while true do x[i], y[i] = io.read("*n", "*n") if not x[i] then break end metafun("filldraw fullcircle scaled 2mm shifted(%dcm,%dcm);",x[i],y[i]) i = i + 1 end i = i - 1 for j = 1, i do t1 = tostring(x[j]) t2 = tostring(y[j]) s = s.."("..t1.."cm,"..t2.."cm)--" end t1 = tostring(x[1]) t2 = tostring(y[1]) s = s.."("..t1.."cm,"..t2.."cm)" s = s.." withpen pencircle scaled 1bp;" metafun(s) metafun.stop() \stopluacode \stoptext Best, Akira

I seek how to use context-lua to draw a path from ‘points’ in an external file. Below is one way to plot points from an external file, call the file DATA with contents: 1 3 -2 2 -3 -1 3 -2 \starttext \startluacode local metafun = context.metafun metafun.start() io.input(“DATA") while true do local x, y = io.read("*n", "*n") if not x then break end metafun("filldraw fullcircle scaled 2mm shifted(%dcm,%dcm);",x,y) end metafun.stop() \stopluacode \stoptext How to make this a polygon? I know other ways to read and manipulate DATA with Lua—it is the drawing part where I most look for help. Thanks, John

Dear Fabrice, The following code is working in my mac. I tried your first code and it is working after adding \setupinteraction[]. Since I didn’t use ‘rsteps’ module, I could’t test the second code. My ConTeXt version is as following. ConTeXt ver: 2014.12.21 22:25 MKIV beta fmt: 2014.12.26 int: english/english \setupinteraction[state=start] \setupcolors[state=start] \usemodule[pre-60] \setuppapersize[S4][S4] \starttext \StartSteps \startformula \startalign \NC x^2 + y^2 \NC = z^2 \NR \FlushStep \NC x^2 + y^2 \NC = z^2 \NR \FlushStep \stopalign\stopformula \StopSteps \stoptext I hope that this helps. Best regards, Dalyoung
