Re: [NTG-context] circled number for item head (Wolfgang Schuster)

Dear Wolfgang, Thank you for reminding me the thread. I also found it yesterday evening and it made me realize how dumb I am. I am so sorry to give you a needless work. I'd like to ask you one more. I was looking for a way to use some characters as an item head like \startitemize[a] because an official document usually use numbers and some characters as item heads. For consecutive characters in unicode, it is possible to do that using unicode. \def\circledja#1{\uchar{50}{95+#1}} \def\circledga#1{\uchar{50}{109+#1}} \def\circleden#1{\uchar{36}{207+#1}} and \defineconversion[][]. But for characters which are not listed consecutively, I don't know how to make it appear automatically. I may use \sym{} AC00, B098, B2E4, B77C, ... These are the same characters in the area 320E ~ 321B without parenthesis. Is it possible to make those characters appear automatically as item heads? I hope that it is not a silly question. Thank you again. Best regards, Dalyoung

Is it possible to keep the zoom mode when following a link
by Cecil Westerhof 21 Mar '11

21 Mar '11

When following a link in my generated PDF, acroread always goes to full page view. I would like that the document would stay in the same zoom and that what was linked to comes at the top of the page. (It is possible, because I have seen documents doing this.) Would this be possible with ConTeXt? -- Cecil Westerhof

I just discovered \setupindenting. I use: \setupindenting[yes, medium] This does not indent the first paragraph on a page. Is it possible to also not indent a paragraph after a blank? -- Cecil Westerhof

Need help with the table of contents
by Julian Becker 21 Mar '11

21 Mar '11

Hello everybody, I have a little issue with the table of contents. The document I am writing consists of several parts and now my question is the following: In the table of contents, the line corresponding to the start of a new part always starts like "Part 1 Name of first part". How do I get rid of the "Part", so that the corresponding line starts directly with the number of the part like "1 Name of the first Part"? Thanks alot, Julian -- Julian Becker Institut für Angewandte Physik, R.123 Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster Corrensstr. 2/4 48149 Münster / Westfalen Tel. 0251 83-3 61 53 Mob. 0151 599 848 29 e-mail: j_beck16(a)uni-muenster.de "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for it is the wellspring of life."

circled number for item head
by Jeong Dalyoung 21 Mar '11

21 Mar '11

Dear all, I'd like to use circled number for item head. I found one method which use a counter as follows: \def\circlednum#1{\uchar{36}{95+#1}} \defineconversion[myitem][\circlednum] \starttext \startitemize[myitem, pack] \item 111 \item 222 \item 333 \item 444 \item 555 \stopitemize \stoptext But it has a limitation of numbers. I think that there is a better way for this like using overlay something, I guess. Is there any general method which is good for any letter? Thanks for reading. Best regards, Dalyoung

criterium=cite
by Mojca Miklavec 21 Mar '11

21 Mar '11

Dear Hans, What is the status of criterium=cite in "bib module" for MKIV? \placepublications doesn't want to leave the uncited references out. (There are workarounds like making copies of bibliography and only include the items that have to be cited, but it is not too convenient to use.) Thanks a lot, Mojca

Use of em dash and en dash
by Cecil Westerhof 21 Mar '11

21 Mar '11

Until now I always used a - (minus sign) to define a sub sentence or for an optional word, like: This is -now- not necessary, I understood that normally you use the em dash for this. But for only a word, this seems a little big. Could I then use an en dash or should I keep using a minus sign? In which other places should they be used? -- Cecil Westerhof
