Have you tried formatting it this way: \startsection [title={my fancy section}] bla \stopsection Breaking before closing or after opening the square braces has always given trouble to me.

Table cell spanning multiple columns in tabulate

Hello ConTeXt users, I am switching from texexec to context, and from table to tabulate.

PDF-Toc text is wrong for new \start… commands
by Steffen Kram 16 Jul '13

16 Jul '13

Hi all, I just converted my thesis from the old \chapter format to the new \startchapter … commands, to be more flexible when defining the titles for toc etc. If you're just giving a title, e.g. \startsection[ title={my fancy section} ] bla \stopsection then the title is correctly displayed within the document. Nevertheless, it ends up enclosed in curly braces in the PDF-Toc. My current workaround, if I put a comma after the title \startsection[ title={my fancy section}, ] it looks fine. Guess this is bug, not expected behavior. Cheers, Steffen

counter in linenote disables hyphenation in body text
by Pablo Rodríguez 15 Jul '13

15 Jul '13

Dear list, in the following sample: \setuppapersize[A6] \newcounter\LineNote \setupnote[linenote][paragraph=yes] \setupnotation[linenote][alternative=serried] \define[2]\Variant {\increment\LineNote \startlinenote[LineNote:\LineNote]{#1 #2} #1% \stoplinenote[LineNote:\LineNote]} \starttext \startlinenumbering \dorecurse{10}{\Variant{not original}{variant} \Variant{origin}{variants} } \stoplinenumbering \stoptext I have realized that hyphenation is disabled in body text when \increment\LineNote is used in the \Variant command definition. I don’t know whether this is a bug, but I don’t know how to workaround it either. Does anyone how to get the body text hyphenated with this command? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Colored horizontal line
by "H. Özoguz" 15 Jul '13

15 Jul '13

Hello there, after long time I have a question again :) I use \setupheader[text][after=\hrule] to get a horizontal line below the header. How can I color this line? The direct attempt \color[r=0.4,g=0.4,b=0.4]{\hrule} fails. Thank you. Huseyin

Chapter-Names and Section-Names in Header don't work as expected
by Thomas Friedrich 15 Jul '13

15 Jul '13

Hello, I would like to put the \chapter and \section names, including their respected numbers, in the header of my document, in small script and separated from the main text by a horizontal line, the width of \textwidth. On uneven pages the chapter-names, on even pages the section names. Reading the manual (4.16 Headers and Footers), I thought this should work: \setuppagenumbering[start=start,alternative=doublesided,location=] \setupheader[][style=small,after=\hrule] \setupheadertexts[section][pagenumber][pagenumber][chapter] Problems: 1) the mark "chapter" does not work. The section title appears but not the chapter title. 2) The chapter-number and the section-number don't appear in the header. 3) \hrule draws a line from the very left to the very right of the page. My Questions: i) What is the "mark-mechanism" that is mentioned in the manual (couldn't find any information about that). ii) Why does chapter not work? iii) \hrule is probably not the best command here? I found the following somewhere in the web: \setupheadertexts[{\tfx\fetchmark[section][first]}][][][{\tfx\fetchmark[chapter][current]}] which gives me indeed the chapter-name. Why "current" instead of "first"? What do I have to add to get the numbers? Thank you for your help! Thomas PS. I am using mkii, I belive, (texexec ...)

[***SPAM***] Shifting table header when using overlay
by Dmitriy Tokarev 15 Jul '13

15 Jul '13

Hi All, I'm trying to get a table header with such bottom border: |============| I plan to use an overlay to overlap the the internal borders of the cells. But in this case, the table header somehow slightly shifted to the left relative to the body (see attachment). Is it possible to remove this effect? Or maybe there is another way to achieve the desired border? Thanks. \startuseMPgraphic{MP:thickBtm} draw (0,2pt)--(OverlayWidth,2pt) withpen pensquare scaled 1pt withcolor red; clip currentpicture to OverlayBox; setbounds currentpicture to OverlayBox; \stopuseMPgraphic \defineoverlay[OL:thickBtm][\useMPgraphic{MP:thickBtm}] \starttext \bTABLE \setupTABLE[align=middle] \setupTABLE[header][background={foreground,OL:thickBtm}] % \bTABLEhead\bTR\dorecurse{3}{\bTH#1\eTH}\eTR\eTABLEhead \bTABLEbody\dorecurse{6}{\bTR\dorecurse{3}{\bTD#1-##1\eTD}\eTR}\eTABLEbody \eTABLE \stoptext -- Dmitriy

hyphenation not working inside macro
by Pablo Rodríguez 13 Jul '13

13 Jul '13

Dear list, I have the following sample: \setuppapersize[A6] \setuppagenumbering[location=,] \definelinenote[Critico] \setupnote[Critico][paragraph=yes] \newcounter\Contadorvar \def\apcritico#1#2{\increment\Contadorvar% \startCritico[Varia:\Contadorvar]{#2}#1% \stopCritico[Varia:\Contadorvar]} \starttext \startlinenumbering \dorecurse{10}{origin\Critico{variant} not original\Critico{variant} }\par \dorecurse{10}{\apcritico{origin}{variant} \apcritico{not original}{variant} } \stoplinenumbering \stoptext And I don’t understand why the first five text body lines are hyphenated, while the other five aren’t. What am I doing wrong in the macro? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
