\goto[]…\reference[]{} in component files query
by Alan Bowen 24 Apr '12

24 Apr '12

I will try again adding more detail in the hope that this will help. The following is not a minimal example but a bare outline of what I have and where the problems with the cross-references arise. This structure works with MKII, so the query is whether something has changed in the command structure or whether the problem with cross-references that Wolfgang mentioned some time ago still persists. If the latter, it would be really good to if there is going to be a fix soon. In either case, I need a solution: the journal lives on online and the cross-references are essential to it. So any suggestions or news will be gratefully received.

footnotes
by Alan BRASLAU 24 Apr '12

24 Apr '12

Hello, Footnotes are (still?) undergoing development in mkiv. I have several issues: 1. way=bypage does not seem to work \setupnote[footnote][way=bypage,numberconversion=set 2] \starttext \input{tufte}\footnote{Note.} \page \input{dawkins}\footnote{Another note.} \stoptext (I do not find numberconversion in strc-not.mkvi; nevertheless, numbered footnotes do not get reset on each page.) 2. next=\autoinsertnextspace still does not work \setupnote[footnote][next=\autoinsertnextspace] \starttext Subject% \startfootnote Note. \stopfootnote verb. \stoptext (Note, however, that \starttext Subject\footnote{Note.} verb. \stoptext does not exhibit this problem, as the space does not get eaten!)

Page Numbering using IncludePicture from simple slides
by Steffen Fritzsche 24 Apr '12

24 Apr '12

Hi, I love the IncludePicture command from simple slides but now I've got a picture which I want to show stepwise. Therefore I created two pictures a simplified version and the full version. I just place them right one after the other. Now it would be perfect if I could force context not to increase the page number counter for the second image because in my handout I will only include the full picture and at the moment the additional slide is messing up my page numbers. Any suggestions? Thanks! Steffen

Dear context-folks, I have to write some short protocols including some matlab-code. Do you have a recommendation for an easy way to include '.m'-files and diaries as code? Thanks, Xenia

\footnote in \startlines[space=on] overflows
by Marco Pessotto 22 Apr '12

22 Apr '12

Dear list, I use \(start|stop)lines[spaces=on] to typeset poetry, which seems the right thing to do to preserve eventual initial whitespace. Anyway, I encounter the following issues: %%%%============= cut here ============= %%%%% \starttext this is normal text. \startlines[space=on] this is a {\em test} with a long long long long line\footnote{this is a test with a long long long long line this is a test with a long long long long line this is a test with a long long long long line this is a test with a long long long long line} \stoplines Normal text again. \stoptext %%%%============= cut here ============= %%%%% First, the {\em test} consumes a whitespace, even if after a command the space is supposed to be eaten. Second, the footnote overflows. (Tested with the latest beta). Thanks in advance. Best regards -- Marco

Pagenumbers doublesided
by Markus Finke 22 Apr '12

22 Apr '12

Hi, I can’t get simple pagenumbers starting right-left-right-etc. This minimal example results in middle pagenumbers (ConTeXt ver: 2012.04.19): ------------------------------------------------------------------- \setuppagenumbering [ alternative=doublesided, location=marginedge ] \starttext \dorecurse{20}{\input knuth \par} \stoptext ------------------------------------------------------------------- This solution doesn’t work for me (How to used it? – I copied the code in my preamble): http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20120202.175424.41cbe6f3.en.html#c… TIA!

Is there some easy way to do tufte-style side note?
by Yue Wang 22 Apr '12

22 Apr '12

Dear powerful ConTeXt users: Is there some way to do tufte style side notes? I googled and did found Wolfgang's solution (http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20110906.202722.f501f115.en.html) but it's just too simple and cannot be used for production. Side notes will cluttered or fall out of pages. LaTeX does provide a good solution for this style. I am wondering if this is possible to do in context. I am also curious to know simple way to do multiple float style in ConTeXt (like graphics spanning text and margin and many others). Yue Wang

Changing navigation symbol
by Markus Finke 22 Apr '12

22 Apr '12

One footnote is placed on the next side because of lack of space. This arrangement is displayed by a triangular symbol. Is it possible to replace this symbol by a more appropriate (self-defined) character or switch off this feature? TIA!

\goto[]…\reference[] in component files query
by Alan Bowen 22 Apr '12

22 Apr '12

I understand that there was a problem with cross-references within components of a product structure that use \goto[…] and \reference[…]. Has this been fixed yet? I have not been able to get them to work with the latest ConTeXt standalone and thought I should check. My \at[] and \in[] cross-references are OK. Alan
