\setbreakpoints[compound] inserts spurious hyphen
by Henri Menke 28 Jan '19

28 Jan '19

Dear list, When \setbreakpoints is set to the method compound, it inserts a spurious hyphen on the next line, see MWE below. This was falsely reported as an issue with the btx system on TeX.SX. https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/472041 Cheers, Henri --- \setupbodyfont[palatino,14pt] \setbreakpoints[compound] \starttext Antique astronomy was gradually replaced by the logic of counting.(Eastwood) \stoptext

Server upgrade planned for Feb. 1
by Taco Hoekwater 28 Jan '19

28 Jan '19

Hi all, We plan to upgrade the software installation on the zapf.ntg.nl server on Friday Feb 1, 2019. As a consequence, various tex-related sites including www.ntg.nl, wiki.contextgarden.net and www.luatex.org, as well as the mailman lists @ntg.nl, will be down for some as-of-yet undetermined amount of time. We’ll try to be fast, but one never knows with these things... Best wishes, Taco

Bidi-related register problem
by Rik Kabel 27 Jan '19

27 Jan '19

Recent betas have introduced a bidi-related problem with register processing. In the following example, compilation generates a recoverable error when register processing has to trim an entry to fit maxwidth. The error is: luatex warning > node filter: error: ...eXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/typo-dub.lua:496: attempt to index local 'stacktop' (a nil value) Removing the maxwidth constraint, or setting it to a much wider value, allows error-free compilation. Without \setupdirections[bidi=on,method=two] there is no problem, but without it RTL texts are not handled properly. This is a recent change; bidi=global worked a few months ago. (I have not tried with LTR text in a default-RTL document). % macros=mkvi \defineregister[Mindex] \setupregister [Mindex] [n=2, maxwidth=4cm, balance=no] \starttexdefinition unexpanded MIndex \dosinglegroupempty\doMIndex \stoptexdefinition \starttexdefinition unexpanded doMIndex #MARKER \def\Marker{#MARKER}% \dosinglegroupempty\doMIndexFull \stoptexdefinition \starttexdefinition doMIndexFull #ITEM \doifelse{#ITEM}{} {\expanded{\Mindex{\Marker}}} {\expanded{\Mindex{\Marker+#ITEM}}} \stoptexdefinition \setupdirections [bidi=on,method=two] \setupbodyfont [libertinus,11pt] \starttext \startparagraph \MIndex{One}{Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey} \input jojomayer \stopparagraph \startparagraph סלאם שלום \stopparagraph \placeregister[Mindex] \stoptext -- Rik Kabel

De following intrusion of a twocolumn placement of endnotes in the footnote area is to be avoided, of course. The code is: text with footnotes. \placefootnotes \placefloats \startcolumns \placenotes[endnote] \stopcolumns Can this be avoided? How? dr. Hans van der Meer

How to pass a parameter with \definedescription[]
by Fabrice Couvreur 27 Jan '19

27 Jan '19

Hi, Hans and Wolfgang helped me to design this framed text. How to pass in text parameter as we can for the length? The text is set to "Note" and I would like it to be "Vocabulary" for the second framed text.

Cannot get upright integral in stixtwo anymore
by Mikael P. Sundqvist 26 Jan '19

26 Jan '19

Hi, the code \setupbodyfont[stixtwo] \starttext \startTEXpage[offset=2bp] $\displaystyle \int x^2\,dx=\frac{x^3}{3}+C$\par \setupmathematics[stylealternative={upright}] $\displaystyle \int x^2\,dx=\frac{x^3}{3}+C$\par \stopTEXpage \stoptext used to give an "upright" integral sign in the second example, but not anymore. Is there a new way to obtain this? Best regards, Mikael

Command \hyphenatedurl{} doesn't work
by Lars 25 Jan '19

25 Jan '19

Hi there, the \hyphenatedurl{} command doesn't seem to work. Only the first line of the link is clickable and only the first line is being pasted into the browser, resulting in a 404. I tested Sumatra and Adobe. MWE: %--------------- \setupinteraction[state=start] \starttext hyphenatedurl on its own is only clickable in the first line and pastes wrong URL to browser: \blank \hyphenatedurl{https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/11/05/heart-surgeon-turned-training-pioneering-robot-used-operation/} \blank Same in the footnote:\footnote{\hyphenatedurl{https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/11/05/heart-surgeon-turned-training-pioneering-robot-used-operation/}} \emptylines[5] useurl...url behaves the very same: \blank \useURL[urlVar][https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/11/05/heart-surgeon-turned-training-pioneering-robot-used-operation/]\url[urlVar] \blank Same in the footnote:\footnote{\url[urlVar]} \stoptext

definefontfamily use
by Alan Braslau 23 Jan '19

23 Jan '19

Hello, Previously, in order to make punctual use of a true-type font in a title for example, I did the following: \definefontfamily [myfont] [serif] [myfont] where myfont.ttf is located in the current project directory, and selecting the font was simply {\switchtobodyfont[myfont]My Font!} Using the present context, this yields the error selectfont > The requested font 'myfont' has no files for the 'tf' alternative, Latin Modern is used instead. What has changed and what should be the proper use? (I have tried setting explicitly [tf=file:myfont.ttf], which was only a guess.) Alan
