Dear list, I have the following sample: \showframe \setupitemize[each][option=inmargin] \starttext \startitemize[n] \dorecurse{5}{\item item} \stopitemize \startitemize \dorecurse{5}{\item item} \stopitemize \startitemize[I] \dorecurse{5}{\item item} \stopitemize \stoptext Is there a way to get only [option=inmargin] for the items that are Roman-numbered?

With the current beta, stacking of margin notes doesn’t work any more. (It was never perfect, but good enough.) MWE: \setuplayout[ backspace=60mm, width=100mm, margin=50mm, ] \setupmargindata[inmargin][stack=yes,style=\tfx] % or stack=continue \starttext %\showlayout \input tufte \inmargin{ \input knuth } \input zapf \inmargin{ \input knuth } \stoptext Greetlings, Hraban --- https://www.fiee.net http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.dreiviertelhaus.de GPG Key ID 1C9B22FD

by Henning Hraban Ramm 19 Mar '19

19 Mar '19

\externalfigure has a "color" parameter. It used to be possible to colorize greyscale pictures with that, but it doesn’t work any more: %%% \setupcolors[state=start] \setupexternalfigures[ location={local,global,default}, ] \starttext \externalfigure[img/minidodo_g][width=.3\textwidth,color=red] % greyscale \externalfigure[img/minidodo_b][width=.3\textwidth,color=green] % bitmap \externalfigure[cow][width=.3\textwidth,color=blue] % vector \stoptext %%% Greetlings, Hraban --- https://www.fiee.net http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.dreiviertelhaus.de GPG Key ID 1C9B22FD

sorttype option not recognized in setupbtxrendering
by Romain Diss 19 Mar '19

19 Mar '19

Hi, It seems that the 'sorttype' option is not recognized in '\setupbtxrendering'. I tried all the different values (page 25 in mkiv-publications.pdf) but nothing changes. The log files suggests that the option is not read correctly. For example : % test-biblio.tex \usebtxdataset[biblio.bib] \setupbtxrendering[sorttype=index] \startdocument \startchapter[title=First chapter] \input ward \cite[ward,knuth]\blank \placelistofpublications \stopchapter \stopdocument % end % biblio.bib @book{knuth, title = "Title", author = "Knuth", publisher = "Publisher", year = "2019", } @book{ward, title = "Title", author = "Ward", publisher = "Publisher", year = "2019", } % end give the following line in the log file : publications > list > collecting entries using method 'global' and sort order 'default' Thanks for the help. -- Romain Diss

Bibliography : wrong order of references when rendered by chapter
by Romain Diss 18 Mar '19

18 Mar '19

Hi, I try to use multiple renderings to place a bibliography list at the end of each chapters. I use the option 'criterium=chapter' to place the bibliography and i also use the options 'repeat=yes,method=local' because I want each chapter to have its own bibliography with an independant numbering (starting from 1 for each chapter). However, it doesn't wwork as expected. When a reference that exists in a previous chapter appears again in another one, the ordering is broken (I tried th option 'continue=no' but I don't know what it does). I don't know if it's very clear so here's a minimal 'non' working example (in the second chapter, ward reference should be numbered 1 and knuth should be 2, following the order of appearence in the bibliography list): % mnwe.tex \usebtxdataset[biblio.bib] \setupbtxrendering [repeat=yes, continue=no, method=local] \startdocument \startchapter[title=First chapter] \input knuth \cite[knuth]\blank \placelistofpublications[criterium=chapter] \stopchapter \startchapter[title=Second chapter] \input ward \cite[ward,knuth]\blank \placelistofpublications[criterium=chapter] \stopchapter \stopdocument % end % biblio.bib @book{knuth, title = "Title", author = "Knuth", publisher = "Publisher", year = "2019", } @book{ward, title = "Title", author = "Ward", publisher = "Publisher", year = "2019", } % end Thank you for your help. Best. -- Romain Diss

Size of itemize symbols
by Wolfgang Schuster 16 Mar '19

16 Mar '19

Hi, the change from a while ago to get the symbols for bullet etc. from the text font when available leads to where unpleasant results for a few fonts. A good example for this are first level items where the symbol is too symbols in my opinion which looks even worse for smaller font sizes. While I can understand the change to use the text font for the symbols I miss a simple way to switch back to the math font for the symbols, e.g. \usesymbols[math]. \starttext \startitemize[packed] \item First item \item Second item \item Third item \stopitemize \startitemize[packed] \sym{\m{\bullet}} First item \sym{\m{\bullet}} Second item \sym{\m{\bullet}} Third item \stopitemize \blank Latin Modern: \symbol[bullet] \m{\symbol[bullet]} \setupbodyfont[pagella] TeX Gyre Pagella: \symbol[bullet] \m{\symbol[bullet]} \setupbodyfont[dejavu] DejaVu Serif: \symbol[bullet] \m{\symbol[bullet]} \stoptext Wolfgang
