The code that follows seems to work but gives me a warning: pdfTeX warning: pdftex.exe (file ec-urw-courier.map): cannot open font map file The PDF lists 3 embedded fonts: LMRoman10-Regular, LMSans10-Regular & NimbusMonL-Regu. Does NumbusMonl-Regu looks like Courier? \usetypescriptfile[type-win] \usetypescript[courier] \setupbodyfont[courier,tt,10pt] \definetypeface[TeleType][tt][mono][courier][default][encoding=ec] \usetypescriptfile[type-lucida] \setupbodyfont[lucida,ss,18pt] \definetypeface[TextFont][rm][serif][lucida][default][encoding=ec] \switchtotypeface[TextFont][12pt,rm] \starttext \input knuth \blank[big] \switchtotypeface[TeleType][tt,10pt] \input knuth \stoptext Tom Benjey 717-258-9733 voice 717-243-0074 fax Twitter: @TomBenjey

I know this and I have triggerd this by hand. So there is a lot of time between. I have purged files between every run and I got the same result if I wait 1 second, 1 minute or 1 day. Wolfgang

Option /TwoPageRight for \setupinteractionscreen
by Markus Finke 07 Apr '10

07 Apr '10

http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2008/031094.html An old thread with the same question. I need this option for doublesided pages like e.g. books. It’s very helpful to scroll non-continuous doublepages for a quick overview whitout activate each time the accordant button in the PDF viewer. Is this option implemented yet? Best regards, Markus

Dotted line in ToC
by marfin 07 Apr '10

07 Apr '10

I’ve in my Table of Contents a dotted line in entries for section. But the dots don’t end in a virtual vertical line before the pagenumbers (because of the common width of »head and pagenumber«?). 1. What can I do for a clear right border of dots? 2. What is the way to define the distance between the dots (dotsep)? \definelist [section] \setuplist [section] [alternative=c] \definecombinedlist [content] [chapter,section] [level=section] \starttext \placecontent \chapter{Chapter} \section{Section} \dorecurse{4}{\input knuth} \section{Section} \setuppagenumber [number=20,state=start] \stoptext Thanks in advance!

I agree with this! A feature could be to save the last used random value in the tuc, so that one can continue with the former used sequenz. But this should not be used automatically, too. May be one should than say \setupsystem[random=last] Wolfgang
