Dump table of contents
by Kip Warner 11 Apr '12

11 Apr '12

Hey list, Is it possible to instruct ConTeXt to generate just the table of contents, skipping all other front matter, back matter, appendices, body matter, etc.? For example, only the following I'd like to see in the outputted PDF: % Contents at a glance... \title{Contents at a Glance} \placelist[chapter] % Complete table of contents... \title{Table of Contents} \placecontent Right now I am generating the full book, but then passing through pdftk manually to extract just the pages that fall within the aforementioned. I tried putting the aforementioned code in its own product file and then passing that through ConTeXt with the book's environment, but the problem is that the TOC now has nothing in it, of course. -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com

issue with columns
by Pablo Rodríguez 10 Apr '12

10 Apr '12

Hi there, I'm experiencing a weird result when typesetting columns: \starttext The first line not using columns. \startcolumns[n=2] \input knuth \column \input tufte \stopcolumns The second line not using columns. \startcolumns \input linden \column \input ward \stopcolumns \stoptext I don't know why ward isn't typeset on the first page? What am I doing wrong here? Thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

index for Japanese alphabet
by S Barmeier 10 Apr '12

10 Apr '12

Hi, I would like to include an index with Japanese terms, ordered according to the Japanese alphabet. I can say \index[kanji]{漢字} for an entry under K. For my Japanese index I imagine \index[かんじ]{漢字} to place an entry under か. Is something like this possible? The Japanese alphabet fits (almost) into a 5x10 table. Depending on the size of the index, it is customary to order an index either by column only (for a smaller index) or by table entry (top-to-bottom, right-to-left). I'd be happy with either, although the smaller one will probably suffice for my purposes... Any help on how to implement this? Many thanks, as always, Severin

Issues with linetables
by Marco 10 Apr '12

10 Apr '12

There are some issues with linetables. In the current version: 2012.04.07 14:42 linetables don't compile at all, example: \starttext \setuplinetable [n=2] \startlinetable \NC \input knuth \NC \input knuth \NC\NR \NC \input knuth \NC \input knuth \NC\NR \stoplinetable \stoptext Given the context version 2011.05.18 18:04 there seems to be a bug in linetables; the lines are not aligned when the columns are distributed on several pages and the lines don't fall on the same page. One-page linetables work fine. Example: \setuplinetable [n=2] \starttext \startbuffer \startlinetable \NC \input knuth \NC \input ward \NC\NR \NC \bf\input ward \NC \bf\input knuth \NC\NR \stoplinetable \stopbuffer % linetable on one single page \setuplinetable [c][1] [width=.5\textwidth] \setuplinetable [c][2] [width=.5\textwidth] \getbuffer \page % linetable streched over two pages \setuplinetable [c][1] [width=\textwidth] \setuplinetable [c][2] [width=\textwidth] \getbuffer \stoptext Regards Marco Patzer

starting batch file after first of at least two runs
by Peter Rolf 10 Apr '12

10 Apr '12

Hi, In the first run I collect several ImageMagick commands in a common batch file, which should be executed afterwards. A second run is also needed to include the created graphics. I tried \appendtoks\mycommand\to\everygoodbye but that does not work properly, if only one run is needed otherwise. So I need to tell ConTeXt somehow, that an additional run is needed (adding the number of runs to the command line is no option). Currently I use if tex.modes["*first"] then ... end to detect the first run. My first try was to add an 'else' condition to call the batch file once, but sadly this is also not triggered in case of a single run... What is the official way (mkiv) to add a call at the end of the first run (or the beginning of the second run)? And how can I ensure, that a second run is forced? Peter

colon in lucida math
by Meer, H. van der 08 Apr '12

08 Apr '12

I get the impression there is something wrong with typesetting math with the lucida setup in ConTeXt. I find that the \colon is not printed. Below is a minimal example. See the colon in the first formula that is absent in the second. Perhaps someone is willing to check if this is ConTeXt in general or my own setup in particular. In both cases I will be pleased with a remedy. Hans van der Meer \setuppapersize [A6][A6] \starttext \start \setupbodyfont[lmodern] Using: \verbatim{\setupbodyfont[lmodern]}\par $K\colon\quad A\cdots Z$\par \stop \start \setupbodyfont[lucida] Using: \verbatim{\setupbodyfont[lucida]}\par $K\colon\quad A\cdots Z$\par \stop \stoptext

[***SPAM***] whitespace also before xtables
by Pablo Rodríguez 07 Apr '12

07 Apr '12

Hi there, I'm trying to add a whitespace before an xtable (just to be spaced as any other paragraph). I wanted to do that in the \setupxtable, before=\whitespace or top=\whitespace don't seem to work. Sorry, but which is the right option to do that? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Nested itemize
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 07 Apr '12

07 Apr '12

Hello, is there an option for \startitemize or \setupitemize or \setupitemgroup: ---- \startitemize \item A \startitemize \item B \stopitemize \stopitemize ---- to get: 1. A 1.1 B (= nested item has its parent numbers, too) or rather 1. A 1.1 B (= nested item has its parent numbers, too; no indenting of nested items) instead of 1. A 1. B (= normal result) ? Maybe a similar problem was discussed some days before but not exactly this case... TIA. Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.

Sorting descriptions alphabetically
by Malte Stien 06 Apr '12

06 Apr '12

Hi all, I have a chapter with a bunch of definitions. I defined myself a description for that purpose, as in: \definedescription[definition][alternative=hanging, headstyle=bold, align=flushleft, style=normal, width=fit, margin=1cm] My definitions obviously come out in the order I defined them in the .tex file. I was just wondering whether there is some clever way to have generated in alphabetic order. I could obviously sort them myself in the .tex file, but if there was some way ConTeXt could handle that, that would be very convenient given the number I am dealing with. Thank you, Malte.

Wiki: examples
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 06 Apr '12

06 Apr '12

Hello, suggestion: As ConTeXt-generated examples (automatically generated by <context> ... </context>) on wiki are often: - too long and - their font is often too big compared to the other font used on the wiki page. (E.g. http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/definedescription.) (WinXP, normally using Opera browser with its default font settings.) Personally, when I want to show both ConTeXt source and result (preferred, as it's not necessary to create "context-wiki" source and context-valid source), I'm using the following setup: \setuppapersize[A5] % To narrow the result \setupbodyfont[8pt] % To make font size closer to that of wiki \setuppagenumbering[location=] % Page numbers are unnecessary in most cases (E.g. http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/defineenumeration.) - What setups do YOU normally use? - Do you think it would be useful to specify a recommendation for setup for <context .../> examples? - If so, where to place it? To http://wiki.contextgarden.net/How_to_edit_wiki_pages? Or elsewhere? Your opinions are welcome. Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.

Cross-document referencing problem!
by Verhaag, G.C.H.M. 05 Apr '12

05 Apr '12

Hi ConTeXt User's, Again I'm struggling with cross-document referencing! The page of the \pagereference[def] command is shown correctly in the pdf result of the attached test.tex file using \at{page}[def]! However when I refer to this reference using \at{page}[tst::def] from the external document crossref.pdf only the 'page' string is displayed in it, but no sign of the page number. Clicking the page string brings me to the correct location, but I'm missing the pagenumber itself? Both tex-files (minimal example!) files are attached! Regards, Gerard Verhaag P.S. Currently I use ConTeXt ver: 2012.02.18 10:50 MKIV fmt: 2012.2.18 int: english/english together with Acrobat Reader 9.4.2 on Linux box.

\description - indenting lines from the 2nd

Hello, in the wiki I have built links for every command to the archiv of the ConTeXt-Mailinglist: e.G. http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/pagereference See at the bottom. It's not perfekt jet - but it helps to get more information to each command and to integrate the wiki and the mailinglist. What do you think about this and could it be improved? Maybe we should give ConTeXt-beginners this hint when they ask questions in the mailinglist - what do you think?

Citation of two books with extra information
by Steffen Fritzsche 03 Apr '12

Hi all, is it possible to cite two books and include page information for each of them. To give an example I'm looking for something like \cite[extras={, p. 123}, extras={, p. 456}][BookOne:2000, BookTwo:1900] which should be processed as (BookOne Authors, 2000, p. 123 and BookTwo Authors, 1900, p. 456) This does not work because the first "extras" is overridden with the second. It's possible to append Information to the second citation but not to the first or to both. Any suggestions how I might achieve this? Thanks! Steffen

sorting footnotes alphabetically
by Pablo Rodríguez 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

Hi there, I read in strc-not.mkvi that footnotes can be treated as lists. And the reference manual deals in section 12.3 with sorting lists. My basic sample is the following: \definenote[dict] \setupnotation[dict][number=no] \starttext This is my dictionary\dict{dictionary: vocabulario} command\dict{command: orden} for a complex\dict{complex: complejo} text\dict{text: texto}. \stoptext What I'm trying to achieve is that the \dict footnotes are sorted alphabetically. Adding the code from sorted lists, I get the following: \definesorting[meaning][meanings] \setupsorting[meaning][criterium=all] \definenote[dict] \setupnote[dict][number=no,command=\placelistofmeanings] \setupnotation[dict][number=no,command=\meaning] \starttext This is my dictionary\dict{dictionary: vocabulario} command\dict{command: orden} for a complex\dict{complex: complejo} text\dict{text: texto}. \stoptext It compiles fine, but the footnotes aren't alphabetically sorted. Is there any way to achieve this? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Last update before was this morning around 10 a.m. CEST. >>> Any ideas or suggestions? The old numbering code had a side effect. Every time one changes settings the state of the counters needs to be synchronized and in fact a reset happened. Now, normally this is no big deal, as one sets up things at the beginning of a document. However, when mid document one wants to change the style, this reset becomes annoying. (The linenote bug reported a few days ago was a side effect of this.) So, now we don't reset any longer unless the 'start' key's value differs. As a consequence one needs to be explicit in some cases, like yours. By default, we number per text (we could change that if needed) but in the past the \setupuserpagenumber triggers a synchronization of the counter and therefore reset the number, so that obscured the fact.

Strange errors on using setupheader

So, rather than using the latest current (which seems to be from May 2011) ConTeXt ver: 2011.05.18 18:04 MKIV fmt: 2011.12.6 int: english/english I am not using the latest beta ConTeXt ver: 2012.03.29 11:28 MKIV fmt: 2012.3.29 int: english/english However, as it turns out, the document I am working on is no longer processed without errors. I butchered my document to isolate the error and come up with a (close to) minimal example: % Use UTF encoding \enableregime[utf] % Set English as the language \language[en] % Select A4 as the paper size \setuppapersize[A4] % Setup the header... \setupheadertexts[chapter][section] \setupheader[leftwidth=.5\hsize, rightwidth=.4\hsize] \starttext \startfrontmatter \completecontent \chapter{Purpose and Scope} \section[]{Purpose} This document should be read in conjunction with bla bla bla... \stopfrontmatter \stoptext I get the following error when processing with the aforementioned version: <argument> doifelsemarking("\ascii ") \ctxcommand #1->\directlua \zerocount {commands.#1 } \page_layouts_process_element_single_limited ...i {\limitatetext {\getmarkin... \page_layouts_process_element_single_indeed ...#4} \fi \endgroup \page_layouts_process_element_single ...#1#2#3{#4} \fi <argument> ...\layoutelementparameter \c!lefttext \hss }\hskip -\makeupwidth... ... l.18 \chapter{Purpose and Scope} Strangely enough, all works well when I remove (or comment) the \setupheader line. Is there anything strange I am doing here? Should work, right? Any pointers would be appreciated. Thank you, Malte.

Rotating externalfigure
by Malte Stien 29 Mar '12

29 Mar '12

Hi all, I am trying to rotate a figure on a page. I believe it should work as follows: \placefigure[left]{Some figure caption}{\externalfigure[some-figure-caption][orientation=90]} ...and the figure does indeed get rotated, but the bounding box appears to be incorrect. The figure ends up being far too small and actually overlays the text above it. I found a couple of posts on the mailing list from years ago regarding this, where people seemed to have related issues. Is there a solution to this? Should this work or am I doing something wrong? I could rotate the figure in the source application, but that is not ideal. Thank you for all your help. Regards, Malte.

Enumerations: location=serried ignored
by Diane Uschner 28 Mar '12

28 Mar '12

Hello, I noticed that the enumerations environment is behaving oddly when used for theorem environments. In the following minimal example, the option "location=serried" (which should result in an inline heading) is ignored. Furthermore, the number of corrolary is not displayed, instead of being shared with theorem. The general idea of this exaple is from [1] <http://www.ntg.nl/maps/36/09.pdf>. I've not managed to figure out on my own what I'm doing wrong. Any suggestions are appreciated. Diane Context is version 2012.03.13 21:26 MKIV fmt: 2012.3.16 int: english/english. % minimal example \setupenumerations[location=serried,width=broad,distance=0.5em] \defineenumeration[theorem][text=Satz,title=yes] \defineenumeration[corollary][number=theorem,text=Korollar] \starttext \starttheorem[title={Pythagoras Theorem}] The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides. \stoptheorem \startcorrolary The sum of angles of a quadrilateral is 360 degrees. \stopcorrolary \stoptext [1] http://www.ntg.nl/maps/36/09.pdf (Aditya Mahajan's "Theorems in Context")

components with enumerations
by Alan Bowen 28 Mar '12

The following does not seem to work with the latest MKIV version: \startcomponent \startitemize \item A \item B \item C \stopitemize \stopcomponent The log file shows: ! Use of \strc_itemgroups_item_alone doesn't match its definition. system > tex > error on line 5 in file SimpleTest.tex: Use of ... 1 \startcomponent 2 3 \startitemize 4 \item A 5 >> \item B 6 \item C 7 \stopitemize 8 9 \stopcomponent 10 11 l.5 \item B There is no problem if one uses \starttext…\stoptext (MKIV) or \startcomponent…\stopcomponent (MKII). Is this a bug or have I missed some crucial change in MKIV enumerations? Alan

table of content not set flushbottom
by Steffen Wolfrum 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

Hi Hans, due to the size of my project I cannot send a minimal: but did you remove the TOC's ability to vertically stretch? I did not change any of my styles/environment, and with version 2012.03.13 now the TOC is not set flushbottom anymore. Do I have to add/change something now? Or was that a side-effect that is fixed with a more recent version? Best, Steffen

Apostrophes not converting to typographical curly apostrophes
by John Magolske 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

I'm having difficulty getting straight 0x0027 apostrophes to convert into typographical single-quotes when using a given typescript. In the following example, \quote{single quotes} generates curly typographical single quotes, but the apostrophe comes out as a straight apostrophe in the PDF output: \usetypescriptfile[type-lemonde] \usetypescript[lemonde-1] \setupbodyfont[lemonde,ss,11pt] \starttext Why don't the apostrophes show up as \quotation{curly}? The \quote{single quotes} and \quotation{double quotes} are fine\ldots{} \stoptext The only way I can generate curly apostrophes is by placing 0x2019 characters into the source. However, when I comment out those first three lines, the output displays a curly apostrophe fine in the default font. Am I doing something wrong with how I've set up my typescript? ~/texmf/tex/context/user/type-lemonde.tex looks like this: \starttypescript [serif] [lemonde] \definefontsynonym [LeMondeLivre-Roman] [name:lemondelivrenormalosf] \definefontsynonym [LeMondeLivre-Bold] [name:lemondelivreboldosf] \definefontsynonym [LeMondeLivre-Italic] [name:lemondelivreitalicosf] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [LeMondeLivre-Roman] \definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [LeMondeLivre-Bold] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [LeMondeLivre-Italic] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [sans] [lemonde] \definefontsynonym [LeMondeSans-Roman] [name:lemondesansnormalosf] \definefontsynonym [LeMondeSans-Bold] [name:lemondesansboldosf] \definefontsynonym [LeMondeSans-Italic] [name:lemondesansitalicosf] \definefontsynonym [Sans] [LeMondeSans-Roman] \definefontsynonym [SansBold] [LeMondeSans-Bold] \definefontsynonym [SansItalic] [LeMondeSans-Italic] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [lemonde-1] \definetypeface [lemonde] [rm] [serif] [lemonde] \definetypeface [lemonde] [ss] [sans] [lemonde] \stoptypescript This is using MkIV, recently updated minimals.

\definepagebreak[header, footer] not working when changing matters
by Pablo Rodríguez 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

I have discovered that \definepagebreak[header,footer] doesn't right with chapters when changing from frontmatter to bodymatter (and similar divisions). Here you have a sample: \definepagebreak[firstpagebreak][yes,header,footer,right] \setuphead[chapter][page=firstpagebreak] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location={botton}] \starttext \startfrontmatter \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{front}} \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{body}} \stopbodymatter \startappendices \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{body}} \stopappendices \startbackmatter \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{body}} \stopbackmatter \stoptext Pages previous to chapters with no text should also lack header and footer, but in the example above this doesn't work when text divisions (such as front matter, body matter, appendices and back matter) change. I guess this might be a bug. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Font goodies color schemes by Unicode number
by Khaled Hosny 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

Hi all, Was exploring font goodies and color schemes and so far works great, very nice feature, thanks Hans. Now I've to small questions/feature requests: Can color schemes be defined using Unicode code points, e.g.: { 0x064E, 0x064F } instead of glyph names (e.g. I'd like to have a font independent goody to color Arabic combining marks and no glyph substitution is involved so Unicode code points should work for most fonts). Second question, can it be (ab)used to color a whole font with the same color (can be handy sometimes), e.g. using a special wildcard or something: { "*" }. Regards, Khaled

simple graphics, Metafun vs. ConTeXt
by S Barmeier 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

I have leaved through the ConTeXt and MetaFun manuals on the search for examples of graphics resembling the attached file which I created in TikZ. I was wanting to switch to something more native to ConTeXt, but haven't quite found a way of realising it in ConTeXt or MetaFun. Maybe someone would be so kind as to point me to the right section in the manual. All I want is to define text boxes (of a fixed size) to fill them with a background colour and (centred, typeset) text. Do I need MetaFun for that, or should some table/framed text environment in ConTeXt be able to do that? Many thanks, Severin

Hi all, I am designing a document suite consisting of two dozen or so documents that are all interrelated. I was wondering whether there is a way that I can define a reference point for an entire document within a project and then refer to that from another document, like \document{global-definitions-document} % This is fictitious syntax ...in one document and then refer to that in another document: For global definitions, please see \about{global-definitions-document}. ...or something along those lines.

getting xml instead of context
by Meer, H. van der 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

In the processing of incoming xml-data this is typeset as is, not as processed text. Thus for example: with \xmlflush{#1} the incoming data: "<text>its_content</text>" is not typeset as: "its_content", but as: <text>its_content</text>. Substitution of \xmlcontext{#1}{.} for \xmlflush{#1} makes everything go away. Allthough my program is a bit too long to present here, a minimal example is the application of \xmlstripped{#1}{.} instead of \xmlflush{#1}; it has the same result. The output below shows how things looks and clarifies the issue; see the second answer of the multiple choice. How to process these data to neatly typeset material? Hans van der Meer

new lucida font
by Meer, H. van der 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

I just bought the new Lucida font from TUG and installed it in my local texmf under fonts/opentype/bh/lucidaot/ Then I did: mtxrun --generate mtxrun --script font --reload to be sure the new install will be picked up by ConTeXt mkiv. I think I did read somewhere that mkiv will prefer otf above pfb files, if these otfs are present. However, after running \setupbodyfont[lucida,10pt] the log shows the old pfb's used: </Users/hans/TeX/texmf/fonts/type1/yandy/lucida/lbr.pfb> instead of an otf? What could have happended? What am I doing wrong? By the way I do not see the lucida math fonts in the package. Are these missing? Hans van der Meer

I have the following two definitions for bullet point lists... % Setup bullet point lists \defineitemgroup[blist][before={\blank[1ex]}] \setupitemgroup[blist][1][packed][symbol=1] \setupitemgroup[blist][2][packed][symbol=2] ... and numbered lists % Setup numbered lists \defineitemgroup[nlist][before={\blank[1ex]}] \setupitemgroup[nlist][1][packed][symbol=n, headstyle=bold] \setupitemgroup[nlist][2][packed][symbol=a, headstyle=bold] They generally seem to work well, but when I try to nest one within the other, like so \startnlist \item Foo \startblist \item Some bullet item 1, \item Some bullet item 2, \item Some bullet item 3. \item Assign an appropriate criticality. \stopblist \item Baz \startnlist ...I get unexpected behaviour as follows: 1. Foo a. Some bullet item 1, b. Some bullet item 2, c. Some bullet item 3. 2. Baz I was expecting this instead 1. Foo + Some bullet item 1, + Some bullet item 2, + Some bullet item 3. 2. Baz ...(where "+" denotes the round bullet point). Is this a defect or am I doing something wrong? Regards, Malte.

how can I use framewidth in calculations
by Thomas A. Schmitz 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

Hi all, maybe I'm overlooking something obvious, but...: when I have a figure, I can calculate its width dependent on the page width, and it will adapt: \starttext \externalfigure[cow][width=0.6\textwidth] \stoptext But is there a method for similar calculations inside a frame? Here's what I tried, but it doesn't give the expected result (the image is much smaller than expected): \starttext \framed[width=7cm]{\externalfigure[cow][width=\the\dimexpr0.9\framedparameter{width}\relax]} \stoptext Thanks for any pointers!

Formatting Indexed Words Within the Text
by Malte Stien 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

Hi all, Is it possible to format indexed words in a particular style within the text more or less automatically. For example, if I write There are some \index[ducks] in the zoo. ...I would like the term "ducks" to appear in small-capitals to indicate the that term can be found in the index. Ideally, I'd like to do that without explicit manual formatting. Is that possible? Thank you, Malte.

Hi, I got a few responses for this. Thank you to all of you. I ended up using the code below. Works a treat. And yes, apologies. The square brackets were a typo; of course they should have been curly. Thank you again. Malte.

As far as I can tell, \index only adds entries to the index register and not to the text.

Widgets getting check marks instead of colors when the next one is clicked.
by Mikael P. Sundqvist 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Dear list, 1) Look at the output of this simple document (attached as test.pdf). If I click the first one I get a green square as I want. But when I click the second one the first one loses its color and get a check mark instead (tested on linux and windows). Is there anything I can do to keep the green square when the red is clicked? %%% BEGINNING OF FILE \setupinteraction[state=start,color=darkblue] \setupfield[setup 3] [width=1.2ex, height=1.2ex, rulethickness=1pt, framecolor=darkblue,offset=overlay] \definesymbol [ryes] [{\framed[frame=off,width=2em,height=2em,background=color,backgroundcolor=darkgreen]{ }}] \definesymbol [rno] [] \definesymbol [wyes] [{\framed[frame=off,width=2em,height=2em,background=color,backgroundcolor=darkred]{ }}] \definesymbol [wno] [] \definefield [rcheckme][check] [setup 3] [ryes,rno] [rno] \definefield [wcheckme][check] [setup 3] [wyes,wno] [wno] \starttext \field[rcheckme] Germany is a country in Europe. \field[wcheckme] All germans are men. \goto{Reset}[ResetForm] \stoptext %%% END OF FILE 2) In the example file above I also use ResetForm to clear all the checks. Is there a way to get a button/link such that when I click it all squares are "checked" (in my case colored red or green)? Best regards, Mikael PS If this method is outdated and there is a better one, please do not hesitate to tell me.

References broken when using more than one component?
by Steffen Fritzsche 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Hi, I've got a deep hierarchy of components, while everything builds fine I have a problem using references. Have a look at the following sample files: reftest.tex: \setuphead[chapter][referenceprefix=+] \starttext \chapter[one]{Chapter One} \section[bla]{Blablabla} See \in{Section}[three:foobar] \chapter[two]{Chapter Two} \section[blubb]{BlubbBlubbBlubb} \subsection{BlubberBlubber} See \in{Section}[one:bla] \component refcomp \stoptext refcomp.tex: \startcomponent refcomp \chapter[three]{Chapter Three} \component refcompsec \stopcomponent refcompsec.tex: \section[foobar]{Foobar Section} See \in{Section}[two:blubb] for more details! \stopcomponent If I move the second component "refcompsec.tex" into the "refcomp.tex" component the reference in chapter one is found. If I translate it as shown using two components the reference in the first chapter is lost. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? Cheers, Steffen

Floating figures – text wrapping and captions alignment

Hello ConTeXists, I wrote my questions maybe in a confusing way.

Itemized List Definitions
by Malte Stien 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Hi, Thank you for all your help so far. I do have another question, though. I would like to define different styles for different types of itemized lists. I have defined: % Setup itemised lists \setupitemize[1][packed][symbol=1] \setupitemize[2][packed][symbol=2] for one type and I would like to setup another type where the symbols and the indentation are different. Is there a mechanism for that? Something along the line of \setupitemizedlist[typeA][...] \setupitemizedlist[typeB][...] similar to \definedelimitedtext for example? Regards, Malte.

Custom itemize Symbols
by Malte Stien 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

Hi all, Is there a way to define your own itemize symbols? I would like a solid square, as in symbol 8 (referring to Table 10.1 in the Context Manual, but solid/filled whereas 8 is hollow. I tried to declare my own bullet point, as in: \def\squarebullet{\vrule height .9ex width .8ex depth -.1ex } % square bullet and then tried to use it in the \startitemize command, but it appears that command does not take commands as its first argument: \startitemize[\squarebullet, packed] \item foo \item baz ... \stopitemize So here goes that idea. Other idea was to use \sym{\squarebullet}. That actually works, however, the problem is that it needs to be specified for the individual bullet point. I need something that can be specified in \setupitemize, such that my writers get that symbol automatically without having any control over it. Any ideas? Regards, Malte

Request to help categorizing commands on wiki
by Mojca Miklavec 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

Dear ConTeXters, Jan Heinen did some heaving wiki editing in order to achieve better categorization of different topics on the wiki. One particular part where your help would be welcome is a big number of different commands listed here: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Category:Commands It would be great to assign one or more categories to each command. Sure, many commands are (still) missing, but once commands are categorized, it will be a lot easier to concentrate on - say - describing just interaction/color/font commands at once, and also to keep adding missing commands. The list of all commands together will be assembled later (once commands are categorized). All uncategorized commands are on top category Commands. Please replace that one with [[Category:Command/Some Category|commandname]] (or more than that) and in case that you need to create a new category, please add at least [[Category:Commands|Some Category]] to that Category page. Thanks a lot for help, Mojca PS: Text to the right of "|" in Category:*| is used for sorting (else all commands would end up under "C" for "Command/Whatevercommand").

PDF Digital Signatures
by Andreas Schneider 20 Mar '12

20 Mar '12

Hello, since ConTeXt supports form fields in PDFs, I wonder whether the fields for digital signatures are available as well. If not, please consider this a feature request/wish :-) I received an internal document some time ago that represented a form and was separated into three parts. Part one was to be filled out by the employee (in this case: me). Under this part was a signature field I could click which made Adobe Reader prompt for a digital certificate. After I selected that, information about this certificate appeared inside that form field I just clicked. The other form fields were automatically locked afterwards. If I wanted to change them, I would have to remove my signature. Parts two and three were similar, but meant for management. They needed to sign my request which in turn locked their edit fields. So in other words: I would like to create such forms with ConTeXt :-) I hate these work flows where people are told to "print out form x, sign it and send the scanned copy via email" instead of just signing it digitally. It would also come in handy for technical and business documents that need to be signed by the customer (for example an Interface Document, System Design, Use Case, whatever). I hope that is not completely out of scope for ConTeXt and not too hard to implement. Otherwise I guess I won't see that feature for a long time. Thanks anyway; at least for reading this :-) -- Best Regards, Andreas
