Re: [NTG-context] next beta
by Jeong Dal 10 Jul '17

10 Jul '17

Dear Hans, I updated ConTeXt beta today and run your sample for long formula. It works nice and it is the feature what many math people want I think. Thank you for your concern. One thing that I’d like say is that a new line in the splitted long formula usually starts with operations in many math books. But, in the ourput of your example, every line ends with ‘+’ sign and begin a new line with a ‘number’. Would you please check it once more? Thank you again for your work, and have a nice weekend. Best regards, Dalyoung

a string xmlpath in Lua
by MF 10 Jul '17

10 Jul '17

Hello list, is there a Lua function to get the XML path of an element as a string? \xmlpath typesets the path, I need a similar function for Lua, but the path should be a string to be worked on in Lua. This is the problem originating that question: i must name (give an id to) some anonymous XML elements (read: "without an id attribute"), and their path is a good candidate. To be more precise: when i parse a <table> element, i look for elements representing footnotes, to prepare them with \setnotetext; then the table contents are parsed and the footnotes' markers are typeset with \note[footnote_id]. When there are more footnotes, i need to identify them, to give \note the right footnote id. Thanks, Massi

Multiline descriptions do not line up

\definefallbackfamily check and force keywords
by Alan Bowen 06 Jul '17

06 Jul '17

A very simpleminded question, if I may. What do the keywords, check and force do in \definefallbackfamily? Am I right to think that check=yes, force=no will use the fallback font only when characters are missing from the mainfont and check=no, force=yes will use the fallback font whenever it contains a character found in the source file?

Problem with columns and footnotes
by Henri Menke 05 Jul '17

05 Jul '17

Dear list, motivated by a question on TeX.SX I wanted to typeset multicolumn text with multicolumn footnotes. However, on the first page the distance between the columns and the footnote area is way too large. Occurs in TL2017 and latest beta. Also, is there something to influence the alignment inside the footnotes more aggressively. There are a couple of bad boxes. Is it possible to turn of balancing for the footnote columns? Cheers, Henri --- \setupnote [footnote] [n=4, rule=no, frame=on, frameoffset=1ex] \setupnotation [footnote] [alternative=hanging, align={raggedright,verytolerant}] \setupcolumns [rule=on] \starttext \startcolumns[n=2] \input Knuth\footnote{FreeBSD tire ses origines de l'UNIX de Berkeley.} \input ward\footnote{This does not seem to be implemented yet.} \input hawking\footnote{Left, right (raggedleft, raggedright).} \input Knuth\footnote{Distance between columns bad hyphenation.} \input ward\footnote{Draw a line between the columns.

You can see a scaled- down version of the final result on the meeting website: http://meeting.contextgarden.net/ == Excursion == An excursion day in Mainz is planned for Friday the 15th, including a guided tour and workshop at the Gutenberg Museum. == Registration discounts == Besides general sponsorship, DANTE e.V. also offer an extra discount for any Dante members that will attend our meeting. And that is on top of the discount we offer to our ConTeXt Group members, so we managed to keep the conference fees quite low. The deadline for early-bird discount is July 11, only six days from now! == Registration == The meeting will host ConTeXt and LuaTeX developers and users and gives you the opportunity to present your results, experiences and ideas on future development. The presentations will be accompanied by tutorials on different ConTeXt and LuaTeX techniques. Registration is now open. Direct link to the registration form: http://meeting.contextgarden.net/2017/register.shtml This year’s meeting is sponsored by DANTE e.V., the German TeX User Group. == Call for submissions == We always set a theme for the meeting, and the theme for this meeting is: ConTeXt Gardening If you want to do an on-topic talk submission, there are plenty angles to take at the theme: Seeding, weeding, fertilising, growing, harvesting, just to name a few. But anything at all related to ConTeXt that you would like to share is an acceptable subject for a presentation, tutorial, discussion, Q&A session, demonstration, workshop, recital, sketch, or sermon. The programme committee is Hans Hagen and Taco Hoekwater, feel free to email them with hints and ideas. == website == For the meeting: http://meeting.contextgarden.net For the Context Group: http://group.contextgarden.net
