ConTeXt meeting and the annotated cow
by Axel Kielhorn 18 Sep '22

18 Sep '22

Hello, last week I learned something about MetaPost at the context meeting. Thanks Taco! First a little background: I write a lot of documentation and sometimes I need to include a picture with annotations. Until now I used a drawing program to add text and arrows. This has one disadvantage, these annotations are not translated. I have to prepare a set of pictures for every language. Well, that changed last week. Here is my first try (actually the 4th iteration): %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \setupexternalfigures[location=default] \starttext \startMPinclusions %draft := 0; draft := 1; color mycolor; if draft = 1 : mycolor := red ; else: mycolor := .4white ; fi ; % Draw a grid to count locations def gridscaled = pair ur; ur = urcorner currentpicture; width := xpart ur; height := ypart ur; xstep := ceiling(width / 10); ystep := ceiling(height / 10); if draft = 1: counter := 1; for i = xstep step xstep until width : draw (i, 0 ) -- (i, height); label.rt(counter, (i , 0.5 cm)); counter := counter + 1 ; endfor; counter := 1; for i = ystep step ystep until height : draw (0, i) -- (width, i); label.top(counter, (0.5 cm, i )); counter := counter + 1 ; endfor; fi; enddef; % Bottom: The annotation is at the bottom of the start point def annotb (expr a, b, c, d) (text t) = label.bot (t, (a * xstep, b * ystep)); drawarrow (a * xstep, b * ystep) -- ( c * xstep, d * ystep) withpen pencircle scaled .8mm withcolor white; drawarrow (a * xstep, b * ystep) -- ( c * xstep, d * ystep) withpen pencircle scaled .5mm withcolor mycolor; enddef ; % Top: The annotation is on top of the start point def annott (expr a, b, c, d) (text t) = label.top (t, (a * xstep, b * ystep)); drawarrow (a * xstep, b * ystep) -- ( c * xstep, d * ystep) withpen pencircle scaled .8mm withcolor white; drawarrow (a * xstep, b * ystep) -- ( c * xstep, d * ystep) withpen pencircle scaled .5mm withcolor mycolor; enddef ; % Right: The annotation is on the right of the start point def annotr (expr a, b, c, d) (text t) = label.rt (t, (a * xstep, b * ystep)); drawarrow (a * xstep, b * ystep) -- ( c * xstep, d * ystep) withpen pencircle scaled .8mm withcolor white; drawarrow (a * xstep, b * ystep) -- ( c * xstep, d * ystep) withpen pencircle scaled .5mm withcolor mycolor; enddef ; % Left: The annotation is on the left of the start point def annotl (expr a, b, c, d) (text t) = label.lft (t, (a * xstep, b * ystep)); drawarrow (a * xstep, b * ystep) -- ( c * xstep, d * ystep) withpen pencircle scaled .8mm withcolor white; drawarrow (a * xstep, b * ystep) -- ( c * xstep, d * ystep) withpen pencircle scaled .5mm withcolor mycolor; enddef ; \stopMPinclusions \startMPpage % Picture draw externalfigure "cow.pdf" xsized 16cm; % Grid gridscaled; % Text annotb (1, 5, .8, 7.3, "Maul"); annotb (6, 2, 7, 3.2, "Euter"); annott (9.2, 9.5, 9.6, 3, "Schwanz"); annotb (3, -.5, 3.1, .9, "Huf"); annotb (3, -.5, 3.9, 1.1, ""); \stopMPpage \startMPpage % Picture draw externalfigure "cow.pdf" xsized 10cm; % Grid gridscaled; % Text annotb (1, 5, .8, 7.3, "Maul"); annotb (6, 2, 7, 3.2, "Euter"); annott (9.2, 9.5, 9.6, 3, "Schwanz"); annotb (3, -.5, 3.1, .9, "Huf"); annotb (3, -.5, 3.9, 1.1, ""); \stopMPpage \stoptext %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% There are still some further ideas and a lot to learn for me: - multi line annotations - a transparent white background - a frame around the text - a link to the section where the part is explained - moving to one command with the orientation as an argument Comments and improvements are welcome.

Lato typescripts (MKIV/LMTX)
by Adam Reviczky 17 Sep '22

17 Sep '22

Hi, With the latest upload (2022-09-16 14:41) I wanted to compare some older projects that I've used with MKIV to the LMTX 2.10.00. In one of which I am using the Lato 2.0 font ( https://packages.debian.org/sid/fonts-lato) With MKIV I get the correct output but LMTX complains about not being able to find the font. There seems to be an issue with the typescript file type-imp-lato.mkiv.

I am cleaning the cache and do a generate and fonts reload each time. Is changing the type-imp-lato.mkiv as above the right approach to get lato working in both MKIV and LMTX? Thanks, Adam

LuaMetaTeX insert nodes patch

Hi Hans, I see that you've released the LuaMetaTeX source code, yay! I'm really impressed with how easy it is to build, and with how quickly it builds.

meeting not online
by Henning Hraban Ramm 16 Sep '22

16 Sep '22

Hi everyone who was interested in participating in the meeting remotely, I just recognized I forgot to include some addresses in the participants address, thus some information didn’t reach the adressees. The DSL connection here in Dreifelden is very weak and unreliable – even if streaming works sometimes, usually it’s just enough for email. Yesterday we streamed for one guy via mobile connections, but those who offered their phones for it have now mostly used up their data volume and need the rest for themselves. We suspected the Wifi to be the bottleneck, but when I bought and installed an ethernet cable, it wouldn’t get better. I’m very sorry, but we can’t keep that up. Hraban

[secure site not available]
by Floris van Manen 15 Sep '22

15 Sep '22

When trying to download the context distribution for linux and 64 https://lmtx.pragma-ade.nl/install-lmtx/context-linux-64.zip i get a warning about missing security: HTTPS-Only Mode Alert Secure Site Not Available You’ve enabled HTTPS-Only Mode for enhanced security, and a HTTPS version of lmtx.pragma-ade.nl is not available. Learn More… What could be causing this? Most likely, the website simply does not support HTTPS. It’s also possible that an attacker is involved. If you decide to visit the website, you should not enter any sensitive information like passwords, emails, or credit card details. If you continue, HTTPS-Only Mode will be turned off temporarily for this site. Is there a (simple) solution?

\startcolumnset ... \stopcolumnset is working.
by Jeong Dal 14 Sep '22

14 Sep '22

Dear all, I didn’t test “\startcolumnset … \stopcolumnset” for some time, because I got error whenever I tested it under Mac OS Big Sur. However, two days ago, I tested it, and found that it was working. I install updated version today and run a test file again. Finally, I get an output without error! I don't know what is happened, but it is a good news. Here is a sample file which I simplified one that is given by one of the experts. Someone may modify it better. Thanks to ConTeXt team.
