Thankyou Wolfgang. This was what I was missing. I think I was not understanding the purpose of the width parameter. -Lance > Lance Larsen <lance.c.larsen(a)gmail.com>: > I am trying to configure an enumeration in MKiv, but it is not clear > how to set some of the formatting.

To control the spacing you can change the width of the text with the ?width? key and the distance between the text and the content with the ?distance? key. \starttext \defineenumeration[ref][alternative=left,width=2cm,distance=5mm] \startref Testing \stopref \startref Testing \stopref \stoptext Wolfgang

Heading flow
by lance.c.larsen＠gmail.com 01 May '13

01 May '13

I have a word template I am trying to convert to context. In the word template, section headings are used to manage bibliography numbering (i.e. each reference is included as a subsection). This translates fine to context except for one thing. Context headings seem to have a ‘keep with next’ type property such that if there is a long list of headings with no other paragraphs between, the headings go off the bottom of the page. I expect that I can change this by defining a custom heading via \setuphead, but how to I override the ‘keep with next’ behavior so that ? -Lance Larsen

Re: [NTG-context] Header not repeating for tabulate

I tested this on the online context tool, and the tabulate repeats header in MKii, but doesn’t in MKiv. Have the settings changed in MKiv, or is the functionality not there yet? -Lance Larsen Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2013 14:08:44 -0700 From: "Lance Larsen" <lance.c.larsen(a)gmail.com> To: <ntg-context(a)ntg.nl> Subject: [NTG-context] Header not repeating for tabulate Message-ID: <518032de.6dd2440a.6573.04f0(a)mx.google.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" I created a table using tabulate.

Adobe Garamond Problems with letter combination "fi"
by "H. Özoguz" 01 May '13

01 May '13

Hi, \usemodule[simplefonts] \setmainfont[AGaramondPro] \starttext Amficool \stoptext gives an "i" without dot, see attachment. And the letters "i" and "f" are curiously bonded. The second attachment shows the same word written in MS-Word, again with Adobe Garamond Pro, without this curiosity. Where this comes from and how to fix? Huseyin

Formatting enumerations in MKIV
by Lance Larsen 01 May '13

01 May '13

I am trying to configure an enumeration in MKiv, but it is not clear how to set some of the formatting. I need to be able to control the distance between the title and the enumeration text, but parameters such as 'inbetween' seem to have no effect. Is there a parameter I can use to set the spacing. Also, how do I find out what parameters are available. I tried to figure out where defineenumeration is defined in the lua or mkiv files without luck. \starttext \defineenumeration[ref][alternative=left,inbetween=\blank] \ref Testing \par \ref Testing \par \stoptext -Lance Larsen

square in Cambria font
by Meer, H. van der 30 Apr '13

30 Apr '13

I find an anomaly in the typesetting of $\square$ in the Cambria font. The $\square$ is significantly smaller then the corresponding filled squares like $\boxtimes$, etc. Is this intrinsic to the Cambria font? Or is some encoding wrong? I tried lmodern and lucidaot and both give squares of the same size. See the example below. Hans van der Meer \setuppapersize[A6][A6] \setupbodyfont[cambria,10pt] % TOO SMALL %\setupbodyfont[lmodern,10pt] % OK %\setupbodyfont[lucidaot,10pt] % OK \starttext $\square$ \string\square\crlf $\boxdot$ \string\boxdot\crlf $\boxplus$ \string\boxplus\crlf $\boxtimes$ \string\boxtimes\crlf $\boxminus$ \string\boxminus\crlf \stoptext

Hi there, in the interior of "placeongrid" footnotes disappear (not shown at the buttom). I think this is a bug? \setuplayout[grid=yes] \starttext A footnote.\footnote{Foo.} \placeongrid[bottom]{Footnote in placeongrid.\footnote{Foo.}} \stoptext Huseyin

Re: [NTG-context] Deactivating Grid-Setting for a single paragraph

The correction of the whitespace after the increased linespace can be calculated and compensated by half lines in the \blank command. Thansk Wolfgang. So there is not way to have an functionality like "placeongrid" with the possibility of page-breaking (or deactivating gridsetting for a paragraph, like it is by default done for titles) ? Could be a good feature for future, would help a lot when using the grid. Huseyin
