Happy New Year! I want to reference to more than one page. In the exampe above only page 2 is referenced - how to get 2,4 ? \starttext You can find red vehicles on \at{page:}[red] Here I want to see: "You can find red vehicles on page 2,4" (only page 2 is wrong) \page \pagereference[red]Here is a red car. \page \pagereference[green]Here is a green car. \page \pagereference[red]Here is a red bus. \page \pagereference[green]Here is a green car. \page \stoptext Regards Jannis

strip space in xml
by Meer, H. van der 01 Jan '12

01 Jan '12

I have the following problem with xml processing. Spurious space is typeset, annoyingly visible when nearly equivalent structures are typeset one under another. Take the following node structure where the <text> node is the one intended to contribute to the typeset material, whereas <anothernode> is not. <root> <node> <anothernode>..</anothernode> <text> .. </text> </node> </root> Doing in the <root>-node: \xmlstripnolines{#1}{/node}\xmlall{#1}{/node} removes some of the unwanted spaces but not all. Especially the space between </anothernode> and <text> does not completely disappear (seen with \xmlstrippednolines). This also occurs when </anothernode> and <text> are on the same line separated by a number of spaces. The space disappears when </anothernode><text> are put next to another. However, this destroys the neat typography of the xml. The manual tells me that \xmlstripnolines ..collapses embedded spaces from nodes under node.. That seems correct in that obviously the code leaves one space from the intervening spaces/newlines. But this gains me nothing! Why leaving a single space between <node> and <next-node>? For me this defeats the purpose of xmlstripnolines. Can this be remedied? Hans van der Meer

escaping % in urls
by Pablo Rodríguez 01 Jan '12

01 Jan '12

Hi there, I have the following sample: \define[1]\url{\goto{\hyphenatedurl{#1}}[url(#1)]} \starttext \url{http://buscon.rae.es/dpdI/SrvltGUIBusDPD?lema=puntos\%20suspensivos} \stoptext in which I try to escape %, but using the above approach I also get the \ printed. Which is the proper way to do it? (Not replacing %20 with a blank space.) Thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

indenting \startlines... \stoplines
by Pablo Rodríguez 01 Jan '12

01 Jan '12

Hi there, I want to be a \startlines... \stoplines environment to be 10cm away from the left margin. I know this is a basic question, but I have no idea how to do it. Since this is my last question to the list (this year ;-)), I'd really appreciate, if anyone would be so kind to answer it. Happy New Year, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

new beta
by Hans Hagen 01 Jan '12

01 Jan '12

Hi, I uploaded a new beta. As I'm still in cleaning-up mode, the usual problems could show up as quite some code was adapted (moved around). For those interested there is a file 'status-mkiv' that can be run to get an overview of where we stand. One big change has been the way alignments are initialized. There were two methods (one for \setupalign and one for align keywords) and these have been merged into one. A side effect is that an alignment change is twice as fast as before which might make a difference in excessive usage of \framed and some table mechanisms. Another change is that \color[whatever]{} now always expects an argument (in \MKII {\color[red] ...} is valid too. Some more commands might get that restriction but not the style switchers etc). Again this is twice as fast as the previous method (probably not that noticeable as many switches happen otherwise). For those who won't/didn't get it by snail mail .. this years card can be found at http://www.pragma-ade.com/show-gra.pdf#page=33 In 2012 it will of course again be a gamble if the betas work out well, Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Page Size to Figure Size
by Kip Warner 31 Dec '11

31 Dec '11

Hey list, I have a lot of fairly large diagrams in my book that don't always match the aspect ratio of the page in landscape mode, though they usually are closer to landscape than a portrait layout for the page dimension. How can I insert a figure so that it is of a given size, with the page size perfectly cropped around it? The closest I have right now is this which is rather awful: \definepapersize[main][A4][A4] \definepapersize[diagram][A4,landscape][A4,landscape] % Insert a full page landscape diagram, parameters are node name, caption, and path... \def\FullPageLandscapeDiagram#1#2#3% { \page \setuppapersize[diagram] \setuplayout[fullpage] \startframedtext[width=.95\textwidth,bottom=\vss,top= \vss,align=right,corner=rectangular] \placefigure [force][figure:#1] {#2} {\externalfigure[#3][width=.95 \textwidth,background=color,backgroundcolor=colour_figure_background]} \stopframedtext \page \setuppapersize[main] \setuplayout[reset] } -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com

Header and footer style and arranging

Header and footer styles do not work with arranging and double sided layout. Minimal example: \setuppapersize[A5][A4,letter] \setuparranging[2SIDE] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \setupheader[style=smallcaps, color=blue] \setupheadertexts[] \setupheadertexts[Hello][][][World] \starttext \input knuth \stoptext Aditya
