Typescripts package and MkII/XeTeX
by Wolfgang Schuster 02 Dec '12

02 Dec '12

Hi all, are there people who use typescripts from my collection which are available with minimals in combination with XeTeX. I'm planing to remove the MkII files and will only keep files which are in use. For people who use MkIV there is nothing to worry because these files will be kept. Wolfgang

two bugs in the latest beta of context mkiv
by Jannik Voges 02 Dec '12

02 Dec '12

Hello, I want to report two bugs in the latest beta of context mkiv. When I typeset the following example, I get the sectionnumber 1 for the second subsection. I would expect the sectionnumber 2.0.1 for that subsection. This problem (wrong sectionnumber) also appears in the table of contents. \starttext \chapter{A Chapter} \section{A Section} \subsection{A Subsection} \chapter{Another Chapter} \subsection{Another Subsection} \stoptext In my attempt to circumvent this problem I tried to write my own table of contents (the number in the headlines were easy to fix) with \writetolist[toc]{number}{text}. But \writetolist seems to be broken, because the sectionnumber is missing. As an minimal example you can use the example from the context-wiki: \definelist[Reprints][criterium=all] \starttext \section{Sec 1} \writetolist[Reprints]{1.}{List entry A}% \writetolist[Reprints]{}{With no number}% \subsection{Subsec 1} \writebetweenlist[Reprints]{\hrule} \writetolist[Reprints]{2.}{List entry B}% \completelist[Reprints] \stoptext As you see, the horizontal line appears at the top of the list and not after the second entry. So there seems to be an additional bug. Sincerely Jannik

request for a few volunteers to test distribution on new server
by Mojca Miklavec 01 Dec '12

01 Dec '12

Dear ConTeXters, we will point the distribution to the new server later today (for a moment without any significant changes). Before we do that I would like to ask some of you to try out ./first-install.sh --server=distribution.contextgarden.net to make sure that I didn't do any obvious mistake on the way. The changes that I'm aware of are the following: 1.) changed names of math fonts deleting fonts/opentype/public/lm/lmmath-regular.otf deleting fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre/texgyretermes-math.otf deleting fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre/texgyrepagella-math.otf fonts/opentype/public/lm-math/lmodern-math.otf fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre-math/texgyrepagella-math.otf fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre-math/texgyretermes-math.otf 2.) some font documentation is missing, I forgot to include Asana Math (fixing it) and there are some euler fonts there were not present earlier (I need to look into that) 3.) gone: /doc, /experimental, /pragma, /texlive (none of those is used, but /doc is now under /current/doc) 4.) alpha and dated context versions are gone (hardly make any sense since they are too old and hardly usable) 5.) I see lots of (so far unexplained) changes in TikZ. I didn't try to figure out what those are. 6.) I didn't set up headers/footers/icons yet to make the few semi-(non-)useful notes on the website. Mojca (PS: there are other changes on the way, but I first want to make sure that the old distribution will keep working as it did now.)

decorated
by Hans Hagen 01 Dec '12

01 Dec '12

Hi, In metapost (running metafun) the following does not work: draw image ( draw fullcircle scaled 20cm withpen pencircle scaled 20mm withcolor red withtransparency (1,.40) ; draw fullcircle scaled 15cm withpen pencircle scaled 15mm withcolor green withtransparency (1,.30) ; draw fullcircle scaled 10cm withpen pencircle scaled 10mm withcolor blue withtransparency (1,.20) ; ) withcolor blue withtransparency (1,.125) % selectively applied withpen pencircle scaled 10mm ; Here the last transparency gets only applied to the first element of the picture. For this reason, the following new variants of 'image' are provided: decorated : adds to the current properties, last one wins redecoreated: replaces the current properties (color and transparency only, pens are kept) undecorated : ignores the specification This will work with the upcoming metapost/mplib release but I like to mention it now (before I forget).

Localization
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 30 Nov '12

Hi I want figure names to be 'Рисунок #' instead of 'Figure #'. If I remember right, it was \language[ru] that did the localization. But I get 'Figure'. How to localize figure names? Regards, Vaytcheslav

ConTeXt Minimal Installer for Windows
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 30 Nov '12

30 Nov '12

New version of ConTeXt Installer for Windows is available (v1.4). It is a GUI wizard of small size (< 2MB), which downloads latest context distribution, sets PATH for binaries, and generates format files. Then ConTeXt works out-of-the-box. Together with TeXWorks tool, it takes a few minutes from beginning of installation to writing your first document. Works fine for all Windows versions. Known issues: On my Windows 8 machine, post-install 'make' fails, but it can be run manually then. Thanks to Mojca for her help. Regards, Vaytcheslav

Sorry, must be a small mistake by me. I know you opinion on Minexamples, and in most cases you are right, but not for every question, I think. But nevertheless I will add one of course, if it might help. Thanks you. Huseyin

No header and no page-number on empty pages

But this does not work if I use "\page~\page" (I need that in some cases for manually inserting a empty page). So the question is how to insert empty pages – but of course respect them in page numbering, I mean that the number is not shown on the page, but the page is counted, s.t. the next pages have the correct numbers).
