> What’s wrong with the \blank command? > >>> \setuphead >>> [subject] >>> [before={\blank[2*big]}, >>> after={\blank[big]}, > > before={\blank[26pt]}, > after={\blank[13pt]} Nothing wrong - everithing in best order. I didn't know that it's possible to use sizes with \blank. I put the information into the wiki. Thanx Jannis

It's working. I have put the example into the wiki. What can be done to say: 26pt before the heading and 13pt after the heading instead of using \blank ? > \setuphead > [subject] > [before={\blank[2*big]}, > after={\blank[big]}, > style=bold] > >\starttext > >\subject{Headline 1} > \stoptext

space before and after headlines
by Jan Heinen 28 Apr '13

28 Apr '13

I want to create a macro for headlines. - before the headline there should be a big space - after it a small space - when the headline is at the beginning of the page there shouls be no space before the headline. A workaround could be this - although it's not very comfortable: \starttext {bf Headline 1} \blank text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text .\par \blank[2*big] {bf Headline 2} \blank text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text .\par \blank[2*big] {bf Headline 3} \blank text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text .\par \stoptext Greetings Jannis

[luatex-fonts] non-ascii filenames in font cache
by Philipp Gesang 28 Apr '13

28 Apr '13

Hi Hans, the font cache currently drops non-ascii bytes when creating file names by means of containers.cleanname(). Dohyun Kim sent a fix for data-con.lua (see below). My own test with the unicode library leads to some odd results. Also I noticed that as a pattern, [^%w%d] is a bit redundant since %d is a subset of %w in both string and unicode.utf8. Regards Philipp #!/usr/bin/env texlua local non_ascii_names = { [[华文仿宋.ttf]], [[华文细黑.ttf]], [[华文黑体.ttf]], } --- [a]: current data-con --- [b]: include non-ascii (proposed by Dohyun Kim) --- [c]: with selene unicode for i = 1, #non_ascii_names do local name = non_ascii_names[i] print"" print("[a]", name, string.gsub(string.lower(name), "[^%w%d]+","-")) print("[b]", name, string.gsub(string.lower(name), "[^%w%d\128-\255]+","-")) print("[c]", name, unicode.utf8.gsub(unicode.utf8.lower(name), "[^%w%d]+","-")) end

Re: [NTG-context] Supressing a heading from the table of contents
by lance.c.larsen＠gmail.com 28 Apr '13

Thanks Wolfgang. This is just what I needed. This will solve the issue. Much appreciated. -Lance > Can anyone tell me how to suppress individual numbered chapter/section/subsection/etc. from the table of contents? The only reliable method at the moment is to create a clone of \chapter. > Also how do you set the last heading level included in the table of contents. I think I came across this, but am having trouble finding it again. > You can use \placelist where list only the headings which should appear, e.g. \placelist[chapter,section] or you change the list for the \completecontent. \setupcombinedlist[content][list={chapter,section}] Wolfgang

codefolding with Kate or Kwrite
by Jan Heinen 28 Apr '13

28 Apr '13

Hello, is someone else using the editors kate and kwrite? Code-highlighting is working. What I need ist code-folding for ConTeXt. Is this possible? I have huge makros with lots of \doif ... \else ... \fi and it is hard to "surf" through the code. What else would be nice: auto-indentation ... marking all the code and let kwrite/kate do the job to indent. Regards Janis

How to center with picture taken into consideration
by Cecil Westerhof 27 Apr '13

27 Apr '13

I keep bugging the list. ;-) I center some text on a place where I also place a picture on the right site. Is it possible to center on the part that is not taken up by the picture? The picture is placed with: \definelayer[picture][ preset=righttop, width=\textwidth, ] \setlayer[picture]{\externalfigure[graphics/pasfoto]} \setupbackgrounds[text][text][background=picture] \setupbackgrounds[state=repeat] To make things a little more complicated, the placing of the picture is conditional. So it is not always done. -- Cecil Westerhof

Hyphenation documentation
by Sietse Brouwer 27 Apr '13

27 Apr '13

Hello all, I've just pulled together some questions of mine and their answers, and written them up into a hyphenation Q&A. http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Hyphenation http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/definebreakpoint Unfortunately, there are still some holes in the documentation I wrote. Questions I still have, and which I now pose to the list: 1. how do I protect a single instance of a word against hyphenation? Does ConTeXt, like LaTeX, use \hbox{myfragileword}, or something different? 2. In the command \definebreakpoint, what do these keys do? I can't get them to do anything (MWE below) ** left ** middle ** right 3. Is there perhaps a bug in breakpoints of type 2 and 3. (MWE below.) The key 'type' seems to control where hyphens appear. If 1 is a hyphenation character of type 1, etc, this is the observed behaviour (`/` is the linebreak): ...1...1 / ... ...2... / 2-... % I would expect: ...2... / -2... ...3...-3 / ... % I would expect: ...3...3- / ... ...4...4 / 4... ...... / ... % breakpoint of type 5 just disappears If this behaviour is not a bug: is there a way to set a breakpoint X that produces ...X...X- / ...?
