Who is maintaining the modules website?
by Christoph Reller 14 Sep '17

14 Sep '17

Hi, I am unsure whether this mailing list is the correct one to ask this question. So please excuse the noise. I tried to send an email to modules(a)contextgarden.net and got the below reply. On https://modules.contextgarden.net/help.html, this email address is mentioned as the primary contact point to the maintainer of the modules.contextgarden.net website. Who can I contact if I have a problem with this website?

Caption location in floatcombination
by Christoph Reller 13 Sep '17

13 Sep '17

Hi, It seems to me that the location given to \setupcaptions is not honored correctly in floatcombinations anymore. Consider the following MWE: \setupcaptions[location=top, number=no] \starttext \placetable[][]{One}{ \bTABLE \bTR \bTD First \eTD \eTR \eTABLE} \placefloat[][]{}{ \startfloatcombination \placetable[][]{Two}{ \bTABLE \bTR \bTD Second \eTD \eTR \eTABLE} \stopfloatcombination} \stoptext In earlier versions of ConTeXt, both captions "One" and "Two" of both tables are rendered above the respective table. In the currently latest version, the caption "Two" is rendered below the table. Is this a bug or do I have to setup caption location separately for floatcombinations? Any feedback is welcome. Cheers, Christoph

Re: [NTG-context] Hyphenation with dashes in natural table
by Christoph Reller 12 Sep '17

12 Sep '17

Dear Pablo, Rik, and Thomas Thank you so much for your quick help! This gives me much more insight into the matter. And you provide various solutions with their pros and cons. For the moment I will stick to Thomas' suggestion \setupbreakpoints[compound] because I don't want to change the source files. Many thanks, Christoph

Hyphenation with dashes in natural table
by Christoph Reller 11 Sep '17

11 Sep '17

Hi, It seems that the hyphenation algorithm for long words with dashes when typeset in a natural table has changed. MWE: \starttext \bTABLE[width=5cm] \bTR \bTD super-cali-fragi-listic-expi-ali-docious \eTD \bTD The longest word known to me that ever had an appearance in a musical. \eTD \eTR \eTABLE \stoptext In earlier versions of ConTeXt, the super-cali... word is hyphenated after "expi-" and no overfull box occurs. In the currently latest version the word is hyphenated after "super-" and, since the rest of the word does not fit the table cell, it overlaps text in the right hand cell. Could this be a bug or do I have to setup hyphenation differently in natural tables? Any feedback is welcome. Cheers, Christoph

automatically splitting big images (calculation problem)
by Henning Hraban Ramm 10 Sep '17

10 Sep '17

Ahoi, I got some long images that I’d like to split over several pages. \def\clipfigure{\dodoubleempty\doClipFigure} \def\doClipFigure[#1][#2]{ \dorecurse{#1}{% \clip[ height=\textheight, voffset=\dimexpr((\recurselevel -1) * \textheight) ]{\externalfigure[#2][width=\textwidth]}\par } } \clipfigure[3][verylongimage] But "\dimexpr((\recurselevel -1) * \textheight)" for the vertical offset is wrong. How can I do this calculation? Greetlings, Hraban --- http://www.fiee.net http://wiki.contextgarden.net GPG Key ID 1C9B22FD

\definemathfence commands
by Otared Kavian 10 Sep '17

10 Sep '17

Hi everyone, With the command \definemathfence it is possible to define for instance the following command \definemathfence[duality][angle][command=yes,factor=auto] so that $\duality{T,\phi}$ results in $\langle T,\phi \rangle$ and the \langle and \rangle are appropriately scaled when necessary. How can one create a command called \bracparenth in order to get a left bracket on the left and a right parenthesis on the right, that is $\bracparenth{a,b} = [a,b)$ and so that when necessary it scales automatically. Below is the example for \duality. Thanks in advance: OK %%% begin mathfence-example.tex \definemathfence[duality][angle][command=yes,factor=auto] \definemathfence[parenth][parenthesis][command=yes,factor=auto] \starttext The action of $T$ on a smooth function $\phi$ is denoted by \startformula \duality{T,\phi} \stopformula while the scalar product of two functions $f$ and $g$ is denoted $\parenth{f|g}$. \stoptext %%% end mathfence-example.tex

But it is resolved now by doing the following according to the suggestions: run mtxrun —generate and luatools —generate May be, “ luatools —generate" is OK. I am using TeXshop in OS X. So I am not sure this works in Linux system. I hope that it may help. Good luck! Best regards, Dalyoung
