changing an XML node and reprocess it (or xmlflushing a string)
by mf 08 Oct '19

08 Oct '19

Hello, i'm using XML and i find useful specifying a fraction made of text this way: text for numerator/text for denominator With some lua, i can transform it into \frac{\text{text for numerator}}{\text{text for denominator}} which typesets something like this: text for numerator -------------------- text for denominator Suppose you want to add some styling to the texts, like this: text for numerator/text for denominator You should split the span node into two elements and the xmlflush them. This is my M(not)WE: \startbuffer[text] A paragraph with a fraction made of text with styles: a fraction made of text/with <red>styles</red> inside. \stopbuffer \startluacode local sub = string.sub local sfind = string.find local xmltext = xml.text local xmlconvert = xml.convert local function numeratorDenominator( text ) local before, after = sfind( text, "[^<]/[^>]" ) local num, den if before and after then num = sub( text, 1, before ) den = sub( text, after ) end return num, den end function xml.functions.textfraction( t ) local text = xmltext( t, '' ) local num, den = numeratorDenominator( text ) if num and den then local fontstyle = tokens.getters.macro( "fontstyle" ) local xml_num = xmlconvert( num ) local xml_den = xmlconvert( den ) -- context( "$\\frac{\\text{\\" ..fontstyle .. " " .. num .. "}}{\\text{\\" ..fontstyle .. " " .. den .. "}}$" ) context( "$\\frac{\\text{\\" ..fontstyle .. " " ) context( num ) -- context.xmlprocessstring( xml_num ) context( "}}{\\text{\\" ..fontstyle .. " " ) context( den ) -- context.xmlprocessstring( xml_den ) context( "}}$" ) else context.xmlflush( t ) end end \stopluacode \startxmlsetups xml:textsetups \xmlsetsetup{#1}{*}{+} \xmlsetsetup{#1}{p|i|red}{xml:*} \xmlsetsetup{#1}{{span.fraction}}{xml:fraction} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregistersetup{xml:textsetups} \startxmlsetups xml:p \xmlflush{#1}\par \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:i {\it \xmlflush{#1}} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:red {\red \xmlflush{#1}} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:fraction \xmlfunction{#1}{textfraction} \stopxmlsetups \starttext \xmlprocessbuffer{main}{text}{} \stoptext Massi

Below is a much shorter version of your example to demonstrate the problem. The problem is a check in the section command which fails when the character comes from a fallback font. I will post a even simpler version of the problem for Hans to fix. \setuphead [section] [conversion=g] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [rm] [DejaVu Serif] [range=greekandcoptic] \definefontfamily [mainface] [rm] [Latin Modern Roman] \definefontfamily [mainface] [mm] [Latin Modern Math] \setupbodyfont [mainface] \starttext \placecontent \section{wow} \stoptext Wolfgang

Hi all, I may be missing something really obvious: is it possible to change the shape of single connection lines in the flowchart module? Let’s say in the following example, I want the connection between test2 and test3 dashed and blue. Can this be done? Thanks, and best wishes Thomas \usemodule[chart] \setupFLOWcharts [nx=1, ny=3] \setupFLOWlines [color=red] \startFLOWchart [example] \startFLOWcell \name {test1} \location {1,1} \shape {action} \text {test 1} \connection [bt] {test2} \stopFLOWcell \startFLOWcell \name {test2} \location {1,2} \shape {action} \text {test 2} \connection [bt] {test3} \stopFLOWcell \startFLOWcell \name {test3} \location {1,3} \shape {action} \text {test 3} \stopFLOWcell \stopFLOWchart \starttext \FLOWchart [example] \stoptext

special buttons in interactions (AcroJS)
by Pablo Rodriguez 04 Oct '19

04 Oct '19

Dear list, on http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/interaction.pdf#page=40, it is announced that there are buttons that change once clicked (using AcroJS, I guess). There are to be explained on chapter “13. Widgets“ (www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/interaction.pdf#page=46) but it has to be composed yet. If I have the following two buttons: \goto{0}[JS(Play{})]% \goto{1}[JS(Pause{})]% How could I merge them into one, so that pressing on it switches between 0 and 1? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Re: [NTG-context] notes in the margin
by Andres Conrado Montoya 04 Oct '19

04 Oct '19

I've been tinkering with this problem. It's kind of frustrating not having a right solution for this. After trying and failing to the last solution published by Hraban on 2018-02-12, I tried to implement my own approach, from the other way around, I mean: not trying to implement notes as marginal material, but to implement the *marginalia* as some type of notes. A different type, apart from footnotes, with their own counter, etc. Below, a MWE, with some caveats:. 1. This is a poor quality hack. I'm not a developer. 2. If notes are too long, they clash with each other. I tried to understand the options that would allow me to move them up or down, according to the Wiki (https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/inmargin) but they don't seem to do anything, or I don't understand how to work with them. But if there is actually a way to manually instruct \inmargin to move up or down, it should be easy to make it work as an optional third argument, for example. 3. The counter introduces some horizontal space that I cant manage to remove except by introducing manual negative \hspace. The MWE doesn't include that space, to display the isse. 4. There are probably a ton of issues I have not thought about, but this seems to work for this project I'm working on, at least. %%%%%%%%%%% Start MWE \setuplayout[ topspace=0.722in, header=0.311in, footer=0.622in, width=4.211in, height=9.622in, backspace=1.311in, rightmargin=1.8in, margindistance=24pt ] \definecounter[marginales][way=bytext,prefix=no] \def\romanMarginales{\convertnumber{r}{\rawcountervalue[marginales]}} \def\marginal{\dosingleempty\doMarginal} \def\doMarginal[#1]#2{% \incrementnumber[marginales] \iffirstargument \high{\romanMarginales}\inouter[#1]{\romanMarginales.\ #2} \else \high{\romanMarginales}\inouter{\romanMarginales.\ #2} \fi } \starttext \dorecurse{6}{\input weisman And so on, and so on\marginal{This is a test, with some words and some more words.}.\par \input thuan\par} \stoptext %%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Stop MWE Andrés Conrado Montoya Andi Kú andresconrado(a)gmail.com http://sesentaycuatro.com http://messier87.com http://chiquitico.org ---------------------------------------- Los fines no justifican los medios, porque la medida verdadera de nuestro carácter está dada por los medios que estamos dispuestos a utilizar, no por los fines que proclamamos. ---------------------------------------- “You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it.
