interpunct is not shown like \cdot in mathmode
by yoraxe 24 Jun '11

24 Jun '11

Hey. Trying to use the interpunct · as a dot operator (normally \cdot), I noticed, that it is not shown correctly in math mode. Since the interpunct has different applications in different languages, in text mode its appearance seems to be okay. But isn't it possible to change its functionality to a multiplication sign in math mode? Find tex- and pdf-file attached. Yoraxe

Using Mkiv
by H. Hodges 24 Jun '11

24 Jun '11

I have Texlive installed on Ubuntu Linux x64. The version is listed as "2009-11." According to http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV#Introduction, with this version, I should be able to compile by typing context filename.tex at the command line, but I get the error MTXrun | forcing cache reload MTXrun | resolvers: warning: no lua configuration files found MTXrun | resolvers MTXrun | resolvers MTXrun | the resolver databases are not present or outdated MTXrun | resolvers: using suffix based filetype 'lua' MTXrun | resolvers: using suffix based filetype 'lua' MTXrun | resolvers: remembering file 'mtx-context.lua' MTXrun | resolvers: using suffix based filetype 'lua' MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua'

Re: [NTG-context] Metafun shifting pictures - again
by Jeong Dalyoung 24 Jun '11

24 Jun '11

Hi all, I got the reason why the pictures locate in different position. "rotation" causes the problem. I defined domino as follows. It is not the exact code but just show the form of the codes. ... def domino (a, b, c, d ) save pic; picture pic; draw something 1; draw something 2; pic := currentpicture; draw pic rotated 90 shifted ( c, d ); enddef; and call it using \startbuffer[domino3] domino (1, 2, 3, 4); domino (2, 1, 1, 2); domino (3, 3, 2, 3); \stopbuffer and \processMPbuffer[]. it draw the first domino at the right place, but it is rotated when the second domino is drawn. Hence, it actually rotated 180 degree. Also two dominos rotated again when the third domino is drawn. Previous drawings are rotated again again when the function domino called. How to avoid this problem? How to draw one figure and move to wanted position and draw another figure and move to another location without changing the previous figure? If you want to see the whole codes, please see the attachment in the previous mail in ntg-context Digest, Vol 84, Issue 94. Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

May I simply delete http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Install_Mark_IV and remove references? There are some other pages on the list that need very heavy revisions, but I will list those later. Mojca

I guess vertical typesetting is a little more involved, but as far as horizontal typesetting goes, most of the spacing is coded into the font already (monospacing). When the Latin alphabet enters, as is becoming more and more common, especially in technical literature, the monospacing breaks down, and common practice is to just typeset paragraphs in block form, adding the necessary spacing. Typescripts are already working wonderfully in ConTeXt (thank you!), so for now it should be only a matter of supporting the characters. I don't know what character categories and initializations are, but if I can be of any help, please let me know. Severin

restrict # TeX Context runs
by Hans van der Meer 23 Jun '11

23 Jun '11

I am typesetting a lot of small Metapost pictures, each on a separate page: from a few hundred to more than thousand. ConTeXt will pass some three times over the input, but I need just the bare Metapost pictures. My guess is, that one pass over the input will be sufficient to provide a view to all the pictures. How can I restrict the number of passes in the ConTeXt run? It surely is simple, but I cannot find the macro. Hans van der Meer

setuplist inherit margin and width
by Steffen Wolfrum 23 Jun '11

23 Jun '11

Hi, say, I want to design the TOC. Now I would write: \setuplist[LevelFour] [margin=1.20cm,width=0.5cm,...] \setuplist[LevelFive] [margin=1.70cm,width=0.5cm,] But is there some clever command that makes a calculation like this: \setuplist[LevelFour] [margin=1.20cm,width=0.5cm,...] \setuplist[LevelFive] [margin={\the\dimexpr\measure{margin[LevelFour]+width[LevelFour]}\relax},width=0.5cm,] Any idea? Thanks, Steffen

Problem with \definehead
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 23 Jun '11

23 Jun '11

Hello, please look at the following minimal example: ---- \definehead[chapterMiddle][chapter] \setuphead[chapterMiddle][align=middle] \definehead[sectionMiddle][section] % Try to comment this line! \definecombinedlist[content][part,chapter,chapterMiddle] \setupcombinedlist[content][alternative=c] \setuplist [chapter,chapterMiddle] [alternative=b,before=\blank,after=\blank,style=bold] % Commands \def\startTitlePage{ \bgroup \let\chapter=\chapterMiddle } \def\stopTitlePage{% \egroup \page } %%% \starttext \placecontent % = TOC \page \chapter{Cha1} \startTitlePage \chapter{Cha2} \stopTitlePage \stoptext ---- Its goal is to define \(start/stop)TitlePage command in which heads will be centred (although they are not mid-aligned by default). (I don't know if my approach is the best - I'm using \chapterMiddle instead of \chapter for this, which is defined as mid-aligned). A \chapterMiddle is derrived from \chapter and has middle alignment. I would need to do a similar thing with \sectionMiddle. The problem is that when I derive a next style - "\definehead[sectionMiddle][section]" (try to comment the proper line), look of the TOC changes (?!) - some extra space before "Cha2" appears; see both test21.pdf and test22.pdf. So how to keep the same look of the TOC? And - would you recommend any better solution how to define \(start/stop)command which would force heads to be mid-aligned? (All compiled with the latest beta, WinXP.) Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.
