Putting together documents with an SVG image on each page. Apparently while creating the m_k_i_v...pdf files, i get a lot of errors/warning, but the document turns out to be ok: Running the latest context on Linux Pop!OS 22.04 Any hints? .Floris ...

Math issue
by Willi Egger 18 Feb '23

18 Feb '23

Hi math gurus, I should typeset a couple of simple math formulae. However I do not get the desired result. I attach my output as pdf. 1. Why is the \times 12 in the denominator although the fraction is grouped? — I tried also the grouping with bracis, which gives the same result. 2. Why is the result after the equalsign in the denominator? \starttext \startformulas \startformula \bgroup{47 \times 62}\over {44 \times 56}\egroup \times {12} \stopformula \startformula {{47 \times 62 \times 12} \over {44 \times 56}}=14.2\ \rm kilo \stopformula \stopformulas \stoptext Thank you for hinting me how to this correctly. Kind regards Willi

Section numbering starting from zero, not one
by Alex Leray 16 Feb '23

16 Feb '23

Hello, I'd like to have roman numerals prefixed sections, but starting from Zero and not One (even if I know that roman numerals don't have a sign for 0). Is there a way to achieve this? My code looks like that at the moment: ### \setuphead[section][conversion=Romannumerals] \starttext \setupheadnumber[section] [-1] \startsection[title={Section zero}]\stopsection \startsection[title={Section one}]\stopsection \stoptext ### Thank you, Alex

Chapter number and titles in separate lines with grid layout
by Alex Leray 15 Feb '23

15 Feb '23

Hello again, I'm having another issue: I'd like Chapter/Section number and titles in separate lines but with grid alignement. I followed that advice: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Titles#Chapter_number_and_titles_in_separate… I'm having an issue though: I can't get rid of the space above the (framed) title and align the section number with the first line (it's on the second line) Any idea? Many thanks. ### \showframe \showlayout \showgrid \setuplayout[ grid=yes, ] \define[2]\MySection{\framed[ location=keep, frame=on, width=broad, % height=22pt, align=middle ]{{#1.\\#2}}} \setuphead[section][ strut=no, conversion=Romannumerals, style={\bf\WORDS}, align=middle, command=\MySection, ] \starttext \startsection[title={First section}] this is the text \stopsection \stoptext ###

Bug in verbatim wrapping examples on wiki
by Hugo Landau 15 Feb '23

15 Feb '23

On this page of the wiki there is an example for wrapping long words, like long hexadecimal strings: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Wrapping This example is buggy because it deletes one character at the point that it is wrapped. In the example given, running context turns '257a410' into '257410'. The DNA example below it exhibits the same problem. Anyone have a solution?

custom hyphenator again
by Pablo Rodriguez 15 Feb '23

15 Feb '23

Hi Hans, with the sample hyphenator from https://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/languages-mkiv.pdf#page=23, next letters after hyphenation are missing. I already reported this (https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2023/107743.html) Am I missing something or have I hit a bug? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

including documents with mediaclips in other documents
by Pablo Rodriguez 15 Feb '23

15 Feb '23

Dear list, I have the following sample: \setupinteraction[state=start] \starttext \null\page \definerenderingwindow[myrenderingwindow] [width=\textwidth, height=\textwidth] \userendering[key-name][audio/mp3][audio.mp3] [embed=yes, auto] \placerenderingwindow[myrenderingwindow][key-name] \page \null\page \stoptext I want to include the second page in another document. \externalfigure[document.pdf][page=2, interaction=all] would be the right command, but it looses the media clip. A complete sample would be: \setupinteraction[state=start] \starttext \startlayout[page] \externalfigure[document.pdf][page=2, interaction=all] \stoplayout \stoptext Given this sample, is there any way to include the page (or the whole document) with the media clip and all its functionalty? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

Makeup and page numbering increment
by Alex Leray 15 Feb '23

15 Feb '23

Dear Context users, I'm new to this mailing-list. I've decided to use Context for two separate publications. My previous experience with Context was almost 10 years ago and it seems like the resources on Context have greatly expanded. So thank you all! There is a little thing that I can't figure out though... In one of my document I have makeup pages. But inserting them result in wrong page numbering of subsequent pages. It appears that makeups do not increment page numbers. Is this a feature? How could re-establish the right page number for the rest of the document? Thank you in advance, Alex

Sentence breaks for "English-style" (TeX default in English language) spacing regime
by Henry House 14 Feb '23

14 Feb '23

List: What method should one use to code whitespace after a period as being sentence-ending, not midsentence, when not employing French spacing? For example, if one writes "... John Doe, PhD. Next sentence x y z ... ." the space in "PhD. Next". In LaTeX, we have "\@. " (code whitespace following puctuation mark as sentence-separating length) and "\ " (code space as intrasentence length) to adjust the magical behavior of ASCII spaces. By experimentation I have found that "Prof.\ Smith" works as expected in ConTeXt but "PhD\@. Next sentence ..." is a nonexistent control code. Prof. Smith % heuristic thinks that the period ends a sentence --- wrong typesetting behavior Prof.\ Smith % coded as space after abbreviation not sentence-separating space --- correct typesetting behavior under English spacing regime versus: PhD\@. Next sentence % Official LaTeX method, nonexistent control References: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/French_spacing Not helpful alas.
