page number in margin
by Henning Hraban Ramm 30 Nov '11

30 Nov '11

Hi again, I’d like to get my page numbers in the margin. This works: \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location=margin] But that way it’s on the bottom of the footer margin; I'd like it on the top. Second variant: Even better, I’d like my page number at the bottom of the text margin. How can I achieve that? location option "marginedge" doesn’t seem to do anything, as far as i can tell, and "inright" is the same as "margin". Greetlings from Lake Constance!

TeX Output
by Martin Fechner 30 Nov '11

30 Nov '11

Hi all, in my project I use an environment with lua-code, xml-setups and some other definitions and settings. Is there an simple way to get an output of the TeX-Stream, which will be used to generate the PDF? So it would be possible to manipulate some TeX-parts manually where the PDF-output have some errors or isn't as expected. Best Regards, Martin

Footnote rule is not drawn in columnset layout
by Peter Park Nelson 30 Nov '11

30 Nov '11

In my new 2-column columnset layout, the rule above the footnotes is not appearing. I found an old question in the list archive dealing with a similar problem ( http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20050626.123839.5318050e.en.html) but the relevant code has been changed since then. Is there a problem with my setup (excerpt) below? %%---------------------------------------------------------------------------%% \definecolumnset[body][n=2,distance=2em,balance=yes] % Use superior figures from the font for footnote marks, instead of \high: \defineconversion[supnumbers][\setff{sups}] % Just create space for the footnote number at the bottom of the column: \def\myfootnotecommand#1{\hbox to 1.5em{#1}} \setupnote[footnote] [location=page, numberconversion=supnumbers, numbercommand=, textcommand=, way=bytext, rule=on, align={hanging,hz}, command=\myfootnotecommand] \setupnotedefinition[footnote] [location=left] %%---------------------------------------------------------------------------------%% Thanks, PPN -- Peter Park Nelson peter.park.nelson(a)gmail.com

context terminal now in gnuplot's CVS
by Mojca Miklavec 30 Nov '11

30 Nov '11

Hello, After 5 years (actually almost 6 - the first t-gnuplot.tex code has been sent to me by Peter Münster on 2nd January 2006) gnuplot developers finally included context terminal into their CVS repository today. (temporary link, but probably slightly more clear than linking to CVS repository) https://github.com/gnuplot/gnuplot-new/commit/62737451bb138f0e679b5a57e0042… The release of gnuplot 4.4.4 was initially planned for around October, which means that it should probably be out sometime soon. Documentation: https://github.com/mojca/context-gnuplot/tree/master/texmf/doc/context/thir… Mojca PS: There are still three pending issues in the area that is rarely used anyway: - I need to fix font switching (I'm currently using \sometxt[gp][iwona,20]{some label} which doesn't work in MKIV and is an ugly hack in MKII) - there are some problems with (draw) externalfigure inside metapost drawings; I might create an abstract layer around that - transparent inline bitmap images don't work and they don't work in MKII at all (partially due to limitations in metapost)

Columnsets: bug in current beta?
by Peter Park Nelson 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

Hello, Following the example in the Columns manual, the following works with TeXLive 2011 but not with the current context suite beta (25 nov 2011): \definecolumnset[body][n=2] \definecolumnsethsize{body}{1}{1}\One \definecolumnsethsize{body}{1}{2}\Two \starttext \startcolumnset[body] \dorecurse{5}{\input tufte\par} \startbuffer \placefigure[btlr]{A placeholder figure.}{\externalfigure[widefigure][width=\Two]} \stopbuffer \dorecurse{5}{\input tufte\par} \getbuffer \stopcolumnset \stoptext Using the current beta, the figure only cleanly spans one column -- vertical space for the graphic and caption is reserved in one column; in the other column, text flows on beneath the graphic, which is superimposed. Using TeXLive 2011, the wide figure spans both columns correctly. Thanks, PPN -- Peter Park Nelson peter.park.nelson(a)gmail.com

mptopdf missing
by Ernesto Posse 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

Hi. I have a fresh installation of ConTeXt on Ubuntu 11.10, straight from Ubuntu's repository (version 2011.05.18.20110627-1) but the mptopdf script seems to be missing, and mtxrun doesn't show any available scripts. What could be the problem? [eposse@flamenco:~/Tests/latex] > mptopdf mptopdf: command not found [eposse@flamenco:~/Tests/latex] > mtxrun --script [eposse@flamenco:~/Tests/latex] > In synaptic's package manager I can see that the following files where installed, but not the actual script... /usr/share/texmf/tex/mptopdf /usr/share/texmf/tex/mptopdf/config /usr/share/texmf/tex/mptopdf/config/mptopdf.ini Thanks -- Ernesto Posse Modelling and Analysis in Software Engineering School of Computing Queen's University - Kingston, Ontario, Canada

Hey list, I am trying to get text to appear in the margin, small, and italicized.

Sequentially number figures (even over chapters)
by Mikael P. Sundqvist 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

Dear list, I want to number my figures sequentially, even over chapters. With the code below (late(st) minimals and mkiv) %%% Begin example \setuphead[chapter][ page=no, ] \setupcaptions[ way=bytext, prefixsegments=none, ] \starttext \chapter{This is a short chapter} It contains one figure. \placefigure[here][none]{A caption.}{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]} \chapter{This is another short chapter} It contains the same figure. \placefigure[here][none]{A caption.}{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]} \stoptext %%% End example both figures are called "Figure 1". I would expect the second one to be called Figure 2. Any ideas? Best regards, Mikael

Fields...

Hi Hans, I tried to build a form with fields. However at this moment it looks likely, that there is a problem with fields. I get the following error: interactions > javascripts > loaded: library 'fld' !
