Endnote list difference, MKIV and LMTX
by Rik Kabel 12 Apr '19

12 Apr '19

List, With the following example, endnotes are set differently with MKIV and LMTX – incorrectly under LMTX. (MKIV 20190404, LMTX 20190411) The problem disappears if /either//or both/ of the first two lines are removed, but of course those usually serve an important purpose. \setupbodyfont [12pt] \setupindenting[yes,small] \starttext \chapter{Testing} \dorecurse{5}{\samplefile{ward}\endnote{\samplefile{lorem}}\par} \chapter{Notes} \placenotes[endnote] \stoptext A workaround is to place \placenotes in a group with indenting turned off. -- Rik

Prevent indentation after itemize
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. 12 Apr '19

12 Apr '19

Hello, Czech typo rules prefer not indenting paragraphs after itemization. How to setup indenting best to achieve this? The following code gives the desired output: ---- \setupindenting[yes,big] \starttext \section{Sec} \input knuth \startitemize[][after={\blank\noindent}] \item Aaa \item Bbb \stopitemize % "%" JUST TO SUPPRESS BLANK LINE \input knuth \stoptext ---- but (obviously) forces user to suppress a blank line between \stopitemize and next text (thus "% JUST TO SUPPRESS BLANK LINE"). Is there a way which would "gobble" next \par after \stopitemize to allow to write simply (without "% ... "): ---- ... \stopitemize <- EMPTY LINE TO BE ALLOWED HERE \input knuth ... ---- (I tried to play with \ingnorespaces, \removeunwantedspaces and so but with no effect.) Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

Request for xml.filter explanation!

Hi, I've the following xml file: *<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes?> <content> <object mid="a"> <text>a paragraph of text</text> <value>40.2</value> </object> <object mid="b"> <text>another paragraph of text</text> <value>10.7</value> </object> <object mid="c"> <text>still another paragraph!</text> <value>20.5</value> </object> </content>* And want to calculate the total value of all the objects: like so: *\startxmlsetups xml:example:base \xmlsetsetup{#1}{content|object}{xml:example:*} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregisterdocumentsetup{example}{xml:example:base} \startxmlsetups xml:example:content totalvalue: \xmlfunction{#1}{totalvalue} \xmlflush{#1} \endgraf \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:example:object attribute : \xmlatt{#1}{mid} \par \stopxmlsetups % LUA \startluacode function xml.functions.totalvalue(root) local score = 0 for e in xml.collected(root,"/object") do tex.write('Okay!') --score = score + xml.filter(e,"xml:///value/number()") or 0 end tex.write(score) end \stopluacode \starttext \xmlprocessfile{example}{content.xml}{} \stoptext* * * When I run this example I get: *totalvalue: Okay!Okay!Okay!0 attribute : a attribute : b attribute : c* That looks allright! But when I incorporate the line: *score = score + xml.filter(e,"xml:///value/number()") or 0* the following Lua error is thrown: ** *! LuaTeX error [string "\directlua "]:5: attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil value* Has anybody any idea what I'm doing wrong here? The manual *xml-mkiv.pdf* doesn't give any clue about this!

luatex crash around page 1000

Hi, I have a compilation problem with a data driven document. This is what I get after around 12min (first run)... [..] pages > flushing realpage 991, userpage 970, subpage 991 pages > flushing realpage 992, userpage 971, subpage 992 pages > flushing realpage 993, userpage 972, subpage 993 mtx-context | fatal error: return code: -1073741571 It compiles fine if I just use the first or second "half" of the data. But as soon as I reach a certain amount of pages, it crashes. An older version compiled fine with 958 users pages (977 total). Seems that the data has reached a dimension that causes a resource problem. Any advice? I looked into "texmf.cnf" and "texmfcnf.lua" for possible bottlenecks, but I lack the knowledge what to change. And it simply takes too much (run)time to just play around with some values.

variable edef with localhsize calculation
by Rörig, Julian 11 Apr '19

11 Apr '19

Dear All, I try to save \localhsize in a variable (with \edef), but whenever the enclosure changes, my variable changes too. \starttext \edef\myVar{\dimexpr (\localhsize-15pt)\relax} localhsize: \the\dimexpr\localhsize\relax \\ myVar: \the\dimexpr\myVar\relax \\ \setupnarrower[middle=50mm] \startnarrower localhsize: \the\dimexpr\localhsize\relax \\ myVar: \the\dimexpr\myVar\relax \\ \stopnarrower \stoptext I would expect that myVar has the same value inside the narrower as outside, because I used \edef and not \def. Is there another variable I can use, or does someone knows a solution for this specific problem? Thanks, Julian btw. everything works as expected, if I do not use \localhsize.

Unwanted uppercase letter in \high{} within bibliography
by Damien Thiriet 11 Apr '19

11 Apr '19

Hello @list, I have an unwanted output that might be a bug in my bibliographies. Consider this MWE : \setuppapersize[S4] \mainlanguage[fr] \language[fr] \startbuffer[bib] @book{Manuel5, editor = {Martin Ivernel and Benjamin Villemagne and Jean Hubac}, title = {Histoire Géographie EMC 5\high{ème}, cycle 4}, publisher = {Hatier}, address = {Paris}, year = {2016}, pagetotal = {398}, language = {french} } \stopbuffer \usebtxdataset[bib.buffer] \definebtxrendering [biblio] [apa] [numbering=no, sorttype=cite, title="Bibliographie"] \starttext \nocite[Manuel5] \placelistofpublications \stoptext As you can see, we get Ème in the output instead of ème. Is this a bug, or did I miss something? Regards, Damien Thiriet

Setupheadertexts with if-condition
by Huseyin Özoguz 11 Apr '19

11 Apr '19

Hello mailing list, I want to use an simple if-condition for this code: \setupheadertexts [][][][{\tfx\bf\getmarking[chapternumber] – \getmarking[chapter]}] My problem: In my case the document dont begin with a chapter but with a section. So at the first pages there is not chapter and chapternumber and the "–" is printed alone. So I want something like this: \if\getmarking[chapternumber] {\getmarking[chapternumber] – \getmarking[chapter]} \fi That is of course no valid code. How to implement that if-condition? Thanks! -- Huseyin Özoguz E-Mail: h.oezoguz(a)mmnetz.de

gnuplot-module broken under lmtx
by Christian Prim 10 Apr '19

10 Apr '19

Hi It's little off-topic as there are officially no modules included in lmtx. But when I used the modules from a mkiv-installation, there was little to no problem. But with the gnuplot-module I can't fix the error myself. MWE: \usemodule[gnuplot] \startGNUPLOTscript[sin] plot sin(x) \stopGNUPLOTscript \starttext \placefigure[here]{Sine Test}{\useGNUPLOTgraphic[sin]} \stoptext Under mkiv everything is fine. mkiv creates a file gnuplot-gnuplot-1.plt, sends this file to gnuplot and uses the output gnuplot-gnuplot-1-ctx.tex. Under lmtx only the files gnuplot-gnuplot-1.tmp and gnuplot-gnuplot-inclusions.tmp are created. When I copy the correct .plt file from a mkiv-run, no gnuplot-gnuplot-1-ctx.tex is generated. If I copy the correct -ctx.tex file from a mkiv-run, I still get an error.
