Place a box on the right

Hi there, \starttext \startalignment[right] \framed{This box should be on the right side, but is not.} \stopalignment \stoptext I know it is easy, but could not find it in the reference. Why not allow simply \framed[location=right]{} ? ("right" is not a correct keyword for "location"). Huseyin

\digits get \times instead of \cdot before exponent
by Christian Prim 22 May '13

22 May '13

Hi, is it possible to change the behaviour of \digits to have \cdot as in http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/magazines/mag-0003.pdf page 2 (table at the bottom) instead of \times as shown in the latest units-mkiv-document http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/units-mkiv.pdf pages 6&7? Thanks for your advise Christian Prim Example: \unit{10.5e3 Newton} should produce "10.5\cdot 10^3 N" and not "10.5\times 10^3 N" (also tested in the latest version at http://live.contextgarden.net/)

I someone could tell me how to place images horizontally side by side, not only vertically, then I possibly could make it with some use of \dorecurse? Huseyin

split natural table
by Stephens, Kenny 22 May '13

22 May '13

I use a natural table to format my page header. I have another natural table in the body. When the body's table is split onto the second page it interferes with the formatting of the header's table, but only the header-table on the first page. I've included an example. Run as-is, the header has the correct format. Uncomment the last row of the body table to see the incorrect header formatting. This behavior also occurs using live.contextgarden.net (today, 2013-05-21). The incorrect header table format occurs with "split=yes" and "split=repeat" for the body table. If "split=no" then the header table keeps the correct format.

Numbers in Headings
by Jannik Voges 21 May '13

21 May '13

Hello everyone, When I try the following simple example, the first \subsection generates 1 as the section number. I would want to get a 1.0.1 without defining my own section numbers. Is there an easier way to get the desired number? Thanks for your help. Jannik \starttext \chapter{Test} \subsection{Test} \chapter{Test} \section{Test} \subsection{Test} \stoptext

[***SPAM***] \defineenumeration options?
by Xan 21 May '13

21 May '13

Hi, I have two enumerations: \defineenumeration [exercici] [alternative=serried,text={\startcolor[middlecyan]Exercici\stopcolor},stopper={.\space},left={\bgroup},right={\egroup},width=fit,headstyle=\ss] \defineenumeration [exercicivora] [alternative=serried,text={\startcolor[middlecyan]Exercici\stopcolor},stopper={.\space},left={\bgroup\startframedtext[background=screen,frame=off,width=broad]},right={\stopframedtext\egroup},width=fit,headstyle=\ss] I just want to join into one: when I do \startexercici ... \stopexercici ConTeXt do the first, and when I pass \startexercici[vora] ... \stopexercici then do the second. That is, 'vora' as optional argument. How can I achieve that? I use MKIV. Thanks in advance, Xan. PS: Please CCme
