\setupinteraction[focus=standard] not working
by Christoph Reller 20 Jan '17

20 Jan '17

Dear List, First of all: Thank you Hans and folks for supporting focus=standard for many things. There are, however, some major places where focus=standard does not work correctly yet. I pick out the simplest and in my opinion most severe one: Floats. \setupexternalfigures[location={local,global,default}] \setupinteraction[state=start, focus=standard] \starttext \about[figure]. \page \placefigure[][figure]{Figure}{\externalfigure[cow.pdf]} \page \input tufte \stoptext The link text on page 1 in the resulting PDF correctly displays "Figure" and the overlayed PDF annotation has a seemingly correct destination "(figure)". But, in the PDF catalog's "Names"-tree the only named destination present has the name "(#1)". This destination points to the correct location on the correct page, it is only the name that should read "(figure)" instead of "(#1)". Please consider fixing at least this issue (even if you are not very fond of focus=standard ;-), as it will be of tremendous value for many users. If I can be of any help, then please let me know. Regards, Christoph

Using Asymptote in ConTeXt
by Mathias Schickel 19 Jan '17

19 Jan '17

Dear ConTeXt users, presently I try to use asymptote to render a graphic in a ConTeXt document using the module filter. I have found some suggestions on this mailing list how this can be done: https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2015/080581.html <https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2015/080581.html> I replaced the asymptote code with my own one and everything works fine. But if I use LaTeX together with the asymptote package I get an interactive 3D graphic (if I open the output with Adobe Acrobat). To do this I compile my attached file LuaLaTeX-asymptote.tex and then I compile the asymptote code via the command asy LuaLaTeX-asymptote-*.asy in the console. If I compile the LaTeX document again the result is the attached pdf LuaLaTeX-asymptote.pdf that contains the interactive graphic. Can I achieve the same using ConTeXt if I modify the attached code example I used? What do I have to modify? Best regards Mathias Schickel

Vertical space around displayed formulas
by Nicola 18 Jan '17

18 Jan '17

Hello, has something been changed in the last few months in the vertical spacing of displayed formulas, frames or other environments? I am re-typesetting some presentations using the latest beta and the content of slides (especially those containing formulas) now tends to flow to the next page, while before it used to fit in one page. I paste below an example, if that helps. I am using a system font, so you may not be able to reproduce my problem without it. Is there something I should change in my documents?

Dear sirs, Is there a way to compare, in TeX environment, a value returned from a lua function with a TeX variable? Please see this code: \def\aleatorioValue{ \startlua local nu = math.random(1,10); if nu<5 return 1 else return 0 end \stoplua } \edef\controlValue{1} \edef\inferior{Number too small \\} \edef\superior{Number too big \\} \def\myfunction{\ifx\aleatorioValue\controlValue\inferior\else\superior\fi} \starttext \dorecurse{20}{\myfunction} \stoptext Thanks a lot.

Italic correction behaviour is odd
by Henri Menke 18 Jan '17

18 Jan '17

Dear list, why are italic corrections in the MWE below not inserted according to the rules stated in the new font manual? See comments in the code for details. I can reproduce the issue with TL2016 and latest beta. Cheers, Henri --- \definefontfeature [default] [default] [itlc=yes] \setupitaliccorrection[text] \enabletrackers[typesetters.italics] \starttext {\it beef} beer % seems to be fine {\it beef} \hbox{beer} % why is correction inserted here? It's a box {\it beef}? % correction missing {\it beef\/}? % adding `global' flag inserts correction here {\it beef\normalitaliccorrection}? % works always with itlc=yes \stoptext

Question about document parameters
by Henri Menke 17 Jan '17

17 Jan '17

Dear list, I cannot seem to find the documentation for the parameters which you can set in the first line of the document. From an example I found that you can select the engine this way. % engine=luajittex \starttext Hello World! \stoptext What other parameters can I set this way and what is the syntax to set multiple parameters? Cheers, Henri
