Vertical space after \head
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 31 Mar '15

31 Mar '15

Hello, is it possible to affect simply vertical space being generated after \head? Here: ---- \starttext \startitemize[][headstyle=bold] \head Something\par \input knuth \stopitemize \stoptext ---- I'd like to have space of size \blank[medium] between the head and the following text. But it seems nothing of "joinedup", "after", "before" or "inbetween" affects the space. So - is it possible somehow? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

Spurious registers log entry?
by Rik Kabel 31 Mar '15

31 Mar '15

The following code: \setupregister[index][n=1] \starttext \index{A}\index{A+A}AA\seeindex{AA}{A+A}. \placeindex \stoptext generates the following log entry. structure > registers > invalid see entry in register 'index', reference 'AA' No similar entry is produced for a non-+ target. This does not appear to cause a problem in the output, but the log message is annoying, and may point to incorrect logic in the source (strc-reg.lua). -- rik

string capacity exceeded
by John Culleton 30 Mar '15

30 Mar '15

I get this message in a file where I am using many external figures: error on line 1 in file chapter2.tex: ! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [input stack size=10000] The wiki says: In texmf.cnf fix the value that has been reported as too small... In texmf.cnf I raised this parameter from 5000 to 15000: stack_size = 5000 % simultaneous input sources But got the same message. Any hints? Do I need to reboot something to make this new size be in effect? Do I need to reduce the size of some of my external figures? do I need to split the output pdf file into multiples?

tagging publications
by Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي ح امد 30 Mar '15

30 Mar '15

Dear gang, In the current bib module publications are not tagged (see attached and below): ====================== \setupbackend[export=yes] \setuppublications[alternative=apa] \starttext \startpublication[k=corbin81, t=book, a=Corbin, y=1981, s=Corbin81] \author[]{Henry}[H.]{}{Corbin} \title{The Concept of Comparative Philosophy} \pubname{Golgonooza Press} \city{Ipswich, United Kingdom} \pubyear{1981} \stoppublication \startpublication[k=haq, t=book, a=Haq, y=1994, s=Haq94] \author[]{Syed Nomanul}[S.]{}{Haq} \title{Names, Natures, and Things} \pubname{Kluwer} \city{Dordrecht} \pubyear{1994} \stoppublication \cite[corbin81] \cite[haq] \placepublications [criterium=cite] % inherits from \setuppublications \stoptext ====================== <div> (Corbin, 1981) <div class="break"></div> (Haq, 1994) <div class="break"></div> Corbin, H. (1981). The Concept of Comparative Philosophy. Ipswich, United Kingdom: Golgonooza Press.Haq, S. (1994). Names, Natures, and Things. Dordrecht: Kluwer. </div> ====================== As you can see, each publication reference runs into the next without even a space after the final period. Yes, I understand that this module is on the way out. That said, would it be too much trouble to add tags to each publication entry on export, or at least wrap each one in a \start-stop? I looked in bibl-tra.mkiv but could not figure out where such a tag should go. Thanks in advance and Best wishes Idris -- Idris Samawi Hamid Professor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523

Color in an environment
by Fabrice Couvreur 30 Mar '15

30 Mar '15

Hi, 1. In the following code, the color is not included in the \startframedtext \stopframedtext environment 2. How can the height of the red square adapts to the height of the text ? 3. Can we improve the code ?

Adjusting vertical location of a margin figure
by Mari Voipio 30 Mar '15

30 Mar '15

Dear all, in the user manuals I'm working with we'd like to put a graphic in the margin when the text includes a warning or other important information. I have found multiple ways of putting a graphic in the margin (see below), but none of them works perfectly. In some the graphic is placed to the baseline of the first row of the paragraph, in others it is placed lower down and in short paragraphs ends up by the next paragraph. What I want is a symbol in the margin aligned to the top of the paragraph. Is this possible? The graphic is always in the beginning of the paragraph, it doesn't appear in the middle. This is what I have this far: \setupwhitespace[medium] \starttext \inmargin{\externalfigure[warning]} \input tufte \inmargin{\externalfigure[warning]} Really short paragraph. \inleft{ \placefigure[none][]{} {\externalfigure[warning]} } \input tufte \placefigure[leftmargin,none]{}{\externalfigure[warning]} \input tufte \placefigure [inleft,none] {} {\externalfigure[warning]} \input tufte \placefigure [inleft,none] {} {\externalfigure[warning]} Really short paragraph. \stoptext Of course I have the option of making the symbols textheight, in which case \inmargin (aligning to baseline) would work. However, I'd rather keep them bigger if that is possible. Thanks, Mari

Hi Hans, I just tried the new beta (ConTeXt ver: 2015.03.28 16:30 MKIV beta fmt: 2015.3.28 int: english/english) It gives an error with the following minimal example: \starttext \startformula \frac{2}{4} \stopformula \stoptext The error message is: \math_frac_command ->\cclf_mathfraction {\mathfractionparameter \c!rule }\nu... \math_fraction_inner_normal ...\math_frac_command {\usemathstyleparameter \m... l.3 \frac{2}{4} However using \over works fine, as in the following example: \starttext \startformula {1 \over 2} \stopformula \stoptext Best regards: OK

Selecting fonts using the built-in simplefonts module
by Pavneet Arora 29 Mar '15

29 Mar '15

Hello everyone, After a long time I have some typesetting work in front of me...yippeee! I am struggling with adapting my templates to the new integrated simplefonts module, and hope that someone can help. The three issues I am having are: 1. How does one find the proper expanded long name of the desired font. For this project, I am using some fonts from The League of Moveable Type (https://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/) I have reloaded the fonts, and can list them, in the traditional manner. What I don't know is how to find the proper name for---say Junction Light---to use as the third argument in '\definefontfamily[mainface][ss][Junction Light]' The use of 'Junction Light' doesn't work, and neither does 'Junction-Light', nor 'junctionlight', nor even 'Junction, Light' which I retrieve from Font Viewer under Linux. MWE follows at the end of this email. I reference Wolfgang's response stating that the expanded name must be used (http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2014/077321.html) $ mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern=junction resolvers | trees | analyzing 'home:texmf' resolvers | caching | skipping 'files' for 'home:texmf' from '/opt/context/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f32e/trees/54be04d87dd160089f572b19cb5c97e9' (version mismatch) junction junctionbold /home/pavneet/.fonts/opentype/TheLeagueOfMoveableType/junction-master/Junction-bold.otf junctionbold junctionbold /home/pavneet/.fonts/opentype/TheLeagueOfMoveableType/junction-master/Junction-bold.otf junctionlight junctionlight /home/pavneet/.fonts/opentype/TheLeagueOfMoveableType/junction-master/Junction-light.otf junctionregular junctionregular /home/pavneet/.fonts/opentype/TheLeagueOfMoveableType/junction-master/Junction-regular.otf 2. How does one switch fonts in-line for small snippets of text? I used to use '{\simplefont[heydingsicons] q}123.345.67890', but this now results in an error. tex error > error on line 7 in file virtual://buffer.noname.1: ! Undefined control sequence l.7 {\simplefont [heydingsicons] q}~123.456.7890 {\simplefont[heydingsicons.. 3. This may be a more generic typescript mapping issue, but I still struggle with understanding font mappings. I don't quite get how the default mappings are done. Look, for example, at Junction above. 'junction' is mapped to 'junctionbold' rather than 'junctionregular'. Is this just done by taking the first in the list in alphabetic order? Or how the League Gothic font is processed below. How is it that leaguegothic is mapped to leaguegothiccondenseditalic by default? What is the recommended way in this new simplefont scheme to set the mappings for a document? $ mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern=leaguegothic resolvers | trees | analyzing 'home:texmf' resolvers | caching | skipping 'files' for 'home:texmf' from '/opt/context/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f32e/trees/54be04d87dd160089f572b19cb5c97e9' (version mismatch) leaguegothic leaguegothiccondenseditalic /home/pavneet/.fonts/opentype/TheLeagueOfMoveableType/theleagueof-league-gothic-64c3ede/LeagueGothic-CondensedItalic.otf leaguegothiccondenseditalic leaguegothiccondenseditalic /home/pavneet/.fonts/opentype/TheLeagueOfMoveableType/theleagueof-league-gothic-64c3ede/LeagueGothic-CondensedItalic.otf leaguegothiccondensedregular leaguegothiccondensedregular /home/pavneet/.fonts/opentype/TheLeagueOfMoveableType/theleagueof-league-gothic-64c3ede/LeagueGothic-CondensedRegular.otf leaguegothicitalic leaguegothicitalic /home/pavneet/.fonts/opentype/TheLeagueOfMoveableType/theleagueof-league-gothic-64c3ede/LeagueGothic-Italic.otf leaguegothicregular leaguegothicregular /home/pavneet/.fonts/opentype/TheLeagueOfMoveableType/theleagueof-league-gothic-64c3ede/LeagueGothic-Regular.otf Many thanks. >>>> MWE \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Prociono] \definefontfamily[mainface][ss][Junction Light] %\definefontfamily[mainface][ss][junctionlight] %\definefontfamily[mainface][ss][Junction-Light] %\definefontfamily[mainface][ss][Junction, Light] \definefontfamily[mainface][mm][TeX Gyre Pagella Math] \setupbodyfont[mainface,9pt] \setupwhitespace[medium] \starttext \input lorem \ss\input lorem % {\simplefont[heydingsicons] q}~123.456.7890 \stoptext <<<< -- ---- Pavneet Arora m: 647.406.6843 Waroc Informatik t: 416.937.9276
