how to stop pagenumbering
by Meer, Hans van der 27 Dec '15

27 Dec '15

The command "\setuppagenumber[state=stop]" used to stop numbering the pages, now it doesn't. Has this been changed and did I miss that change? Hans van der Meer

Pgfplots - "reverse legend" by Lua
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 24 Dec '15

24 Dec '15

Hello, one more question about pgfplots & Lua: how to specify "reverse legend" by Lua? Here are some examples: - Plot 1 contains no Lua code and gives the desired result (OK); - Plot 2 uses Lua to specify "legend entries" successfully (OK); - Plot 3 tries to use Lua to specify "reverese legend", but doesn't work; ---- \usemodule[pgfplots] \starttext Plot 1 -- OK \starttikzpicture \startaxis[legend entries={Cos,Sin2,Sin},reverse legend] \addplot+[mark=none,fill,green]{cos(deg(x))}\closedcycle; \addplot+[mark=none,fill,yellow]{0.5*sin(deg(0.5*x))}\closedcycle; \addplot+[mark=none,]{sin(deg(x))}\closedcycle; \stopaxis \stoptikzpicture Plot 2 -- Legend by Lua -- OK \starttikzpicture %\startaxis[legend entries={Cos,Sin2,Sin}] \cldcommand{startaxis{["legend entries"] = "{Cos,Sin2,Sin}"}} \addplot+[mark=none,fill,green]{cos(deg(x))}\closedcycle; \addplot+[mark=none,fill,yellow]{0.5*sin(deg(0.5*x))}\closedcycle; \addplot+[mark=none,]{sin(deg(x))}\closedcycle; \stopaxis \stoptikzpicture Plot 3 -- Reverse legend by Lua -- not working \starttikzpicture %\startaxis[legend entries={Cos,Sin2,Sin},reverse legend] \cldcommand{startaxis{["legend entries"] = "{Cos,Sin2,Sin}", "reverse legend"}} \addplot+[mark=none,fill,green]{cos(deg(x))}\closedcycle; \addplot+[mark=none,fill,yellow]{0.5*sin(deg(0.5*x))}\closedcycle; \addplot+[mark=none,]{sin(deg(x))}\closedcycle; \stopaxis \stoptikzpicture \stoptext ---- So how to make Plot 3 work?

I downloaded http://www.pragma-ade.nl/context/current/cont-tmf.zip and unpacked it into texmf-context folder, but the result is the same.

duplex printing
by Pablo Rodriguez 24 Dec '15

24 Dec '15

Dear list, for those interested, Hans has implemented in latest beta from 2015.12.22 10:50 values for duplex printing in the option key from \setupinteractionscreen. With this commit, it is possible to disable duplex printing in printers which have it set by default, or enable portrait or landscape duplex printing (no matter which the defaults are). More information at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/PDF_Print_Options. I must admit it is formatted like crap. But I had to write it in Markdown and convert it to mediawiki using pandoc. I hope you enjoy this feature, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

strange output in math display mode
by Jeong Dal 23 Dec '15

23 Dec '15

Dear Hans, After updating the minimal, I got a strange output of math display mode. Would you please check it? Here is an example. Best regards, Thank you. Dalyoung %%%%%%%%%%%% \starttext Here is a strange output of math formula. It is displayed correctly in text line, but is displayed strangely in math display mode. \blank Here is a correct output in text line. $\int_0^t B(s)\ dB(s) = \frac{1}{2} B^2(t) - \frac{1}{2} t.$ \blank But in the output of display mode, the location of the sub- super-script of the integral sign is not normal and the output of \type{ \frac{1}{2} B^2(t)} is wrong. \startformula \int_0^t B(s)\ dB(s) = \frac{1}{2} B^2(t) - \frac{1}{2} t. \stopformula \stoptext %%%%%%%%%%%%%%

inter-word space in bibliographies

The appended code is supposed to allow reduction of the inter-word spacing in my bibliographies but it does not. Adjusting the \spaceskip in the setups for [tightspace] does not seem to make any difference. Any suggestions will be most welcome.

behavior of \vfill has changed in latest beta
by Thomas A. Schmitz 21 Dec '15

Hi, the behavior of \vfill has changed in the latest beta. In some of my setups, I used code like this to produce vertically centered content: \starttext \null\vfill vertically centered? \vfill\null \stoptext This works with the beta of 2015.11.19 19:13, but no longer with 2015.12.21 12:16. Not sure if intended, side effect, or bug? Thomas

beta
by Hans Hagen 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

Hi, A few words on luatex 0.87 and the beta. As we're progressing to the first stable luatex release (stable in the sense that functionality will become stable, after 1.0 we will continue anyway) a couple of changes take place. And as context is the primary testbed it gets adapted too. (1) Luatex functionality gets finalized which means that some gets removed, some adapted and some extended. The last months not much changed in context in terms of functionality but adapting to luatex canhave temporary side effects as you might have noticed. (2) Luatex functionality that was already present but not yet used gets applied and again this should normally not have side effects. It might result in new (or extended) features. (3) Context code gets optimized but I must admit that there is not much room left for that. Some new luatex functionality makes it possible to code a bit less redundant (handy for tracing). That can result in left over bit and pieces, typos etc. Lucky us we have Wolfgang to check that. (4) Performance should be a little better but also depends on the source and quality of styles. If you encounter bottlenecks and can prove that it's due to poor context core performance I can have a look at it. (5) The new font loader is now used and still can have some issues but in general it behaves okay. (6) There are still some mechanisms that need to be mkiv'd. For instance I'm looking at columnsets. Some of the oldest code (early luatex) probably needs to be checked.

Plot using pgfplots: order of appearance of two simple plots
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

Hello, I'm just starting with pgfplots library. I have two plots, one being filled: ---- \usemodule[pgfplots] \starttext \starttikzpicture \startaxis[legend entries={Sin,Cos}] \addplot+[mark=none] {sin(deg(x))}; \addplot+[mark=none,fill]{cos(deg(x))}; \stopaxis \stoptikzpicture \stoptext ---- The problem is that the latter plot hides the former as they appear in the order they are defined. A solution would be to change the order - to swap plot "Sin" and "Cos". But also I need to keep the order in which plots appear in the legend - it's important to keep "Sin" followed by "Cos"; I'm looking for a way to set the order of plots, something like \addplot+[mark=none,order=2] {sin(deg(x))}; \addplot+[mark=none,order=1] {sin(deg(x))}; or \addplot+[mark=none,z=2] {sin(deg(x))}; \addplot+[mark=none,z=1] {sin(deg(x))}; Although I'm having pgfplots.pdf ("Package PGFPLOTS manual", 20. 10. 2013) open, I cannot find a solution. Would anyone more experienced have an idea? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.
