reducing the space after the enumeration heading
by Curiouslearn 13 Nov '09

13 Nov '09

Hello All, I have defined the following enumeration: \defineenumeration [Problem] [location=top, text=Problem, between=\blank, before=\blank, after=\blank] Now for one of the problems, I want the heading "Problem 13" to appear not on the top, but on the left. So before this particular problem I entered \setupenumerations[Problem][location=left,stopper=:] \Problem (From book XYZ) The issue is that there is a big space between words "Problem 13:" and "(From book XYZ)". How can I reduce this space so that it is equal to the standard spacing? Thank you.

big with \setupfloat[figure][indentnext=yes]

Hello, I found a bug (?) with \setupfloat[figure][indentnext=yes] If I do Some Text \placefigure[middle]{}{...} Some Text then it's ok, but if Some Text \placefigure[inner]{}{...} Some Text then the next paragraph is NOT indented. It looks ugly, please, fix this or tell me what i'm doing wrong. Regards, Vyatcheslav

Re: [NTG-context] Math setup with Times (Termes)
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 13 Nov '09

Thank you everybody very much, esp. Mojca! You almost saved my life! ) In spite of previously said, I don't like mixing Termes with Times New Roman, because e.g. "M" in math looks rather like bold "M" in the text. But I made a hack which works for me: { name = "timesi.ttf", vector = "tex-mi-txpx2", skewchar=0x7F }, I just replaced texgyretermes-italic.otf with timesi.ttf. Unfortunatelly, I cannot modify the first line too, because some greek letters are missed then, but I believe one day I could manage this ) mathematics.make_font ( "tx-math", { { name = "texgyretermes-regular.otf", features = "virtualmath", main = true }, { name = "rtxr.tfm", vector = "tex-mr" } , { name = "rtxmi.tfm", vector = "tex-mi-txpx1", skewchar=0x7F }, { name = "timesi.ttf", vector = "tex-mi-txpx2", skewchar=0x7F }, { name = "txsy.tfm", vector = "tex-sy", skewchar=0x30, parameters = true } , { name = "txex.tfm", vector = "tex-ex", extension = true } , { name = "txsya.tfm", vector = "tex-ma" }, { name = "txsyb.tfm", vector = "tex-mb" }, } ) Perfect for the moment!

Changing the formatting of Natural Tables
by Curiouslearn 12 Nov '09

12 Nov '09

Hello, I am using natural tables to make tables in my document. Can someone please tell me how I can prevent context from applying features I choose for an earlier table to a table that appears later in the document. Following is an example of two tables. Even though I choose \setupTABLE[frame=off] for the second table, there is a frame created based on what I define for an earlier table. I am using MKII (since I want to use Tikz). I would really appreciate any help. Example: \setuplayout[letter,height= 9in,width=5.5in,topspace=1in,header=1cm,backspace=1.5in] % Changing the location of the page numbers so that they appear in the footer. \setuppagenumbering[location=footer] \setupcolors[state=start] \setupcolor[xwi] \starttext %%%%%% First Table %%%%%% \setupTABLE[frame=off] \setupTABLE[column][3,4,5][align={middle,lohi},width=0.6in] \setupTABLE[column][2][align=lohi] \setupTABLE[row][3][align={lohi,middle}] \setupTABLE[3,4,5][3,4,5][background=color,backgroundcolor=ivory,framecolor=midnightblue,frame=on] % Using color names from xwi colorscheme \bTABLE \bTR \bTD \eTD \bTD \eTD \bTD[nc=3] {\bf Player 2} \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD \eTD \bTD \eTD \bTD $ L $ \eTD \bTD $ M $ \eTD \bTD $ R $ \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD[nr=3,width=1in] {\bf Player 1} \eTD \bTD $ U $ \eTD \bTD (8,8) \eTD \bTD (0,9) \eTD \bTD (0,0) \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD $ C $ \eTD \bTD (9,0) \eTD \bTD (0,0) \eTD \bTD (3,1) \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD $ D $ \eTD \bTD (0,0) \eTD \bTD (1,3) \eTD \bTD (3,3) \eTD \eTR \eTABLE %%%%%% Second Table %%%%%% Even though I repeat {\tt \\setupTABLE[frame=off]} command the table has frame. \setupTABLE[frame=off] \bTABLE \bTR \bTD \eTD \bTD \eTD \bTD[nc=2] Player 2 \eTD \bTD \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD \eTD \bTD \eTD \bTD C \eTD \bTD D \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD[nr=2] Player 1 \eTD \bTD C \eTD \bTD (2,2) \eTD \bTD (0,4) \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD D \eTD \bTD (4,0) \eTD \bTD (1,1) \eTD \eTR \eTABLE \stoptext

Hello friends, I look at the conversations on the list and begin feeling scared. I have a serious project with very tough deadline and heavy use of math. Our publishing department reject everything that does not meet their standards. Initially, I relied upon to possibilities: a) use standard LM fonts, but with upright greek b) use Times (Termes) letters for math, but with italized Latin Never thought that either could ever be a serious problem. Does anybody control the situation? Or my hopes are delusive and my project doomed? P.S. This is really sad, no whimpering :( Regards, Vyatcheslav

Itemize withing description
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 09 Nov '09

09 Nov '09

Hello, Another tricky question. I have "Review Questions" at the end of each section. There are only questions inside, and they are enumerated. I felt natural to implement it as description. Going further, I added \startitemize and \stopitemize inside the description definition. Then my code looks neatly, but one annoying problem persist. Whatever I do, I cannot get blank space between description caption (text) and the items. I manage to have it before the block, after it, but not inbetween. Here is my minimal example that shows clearly that big skip disappears (there is a problem with indenting too, but that's another problem): \setupitemize[each][1,packed,nowhite,text] \definedescription[reviewquestions][location=serried, text={Review questions}, before={\blank[small]\startitemize}, inbetween={\blank[big]}, after={\stopitemize\blank[small]}] \starttext The section ends here. \startreviewquestions \item Question 1 \item Question 2 \item Question 3 \stopreviewquestions The next section starts here. \stoptext Best regards, Vyatcheslav

Adding small caps font to Xserif definition
by Roland 08 Nov '09

08 Nov '09

Hi all, I'm typesetting a book with ConTeXt and XeTeX (LuaTex has been choking on some statements and I didn't find the time to debug it). I've gotten XeTeX to find Mac fonts through the simple Xserif definition, but now I want to add a dedicated small caps font. I've been checking out lots of typescripts documentation but I get discouraged by their levels of complexity - I'm sure they're very powerful but all the documentation out there still doesn't tell me what all the different lines actually do and why there have to be so many of them... My minimal test script is as follows: \enableregime[utf] \setupcapitals[title=no,sc=no] \definetypeface[ecolayout][rm][Xserif][EconomistTT] \setupbodyfont[ecolayout, 11pt] \starttext Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, {\sc consectetur adipisicing elit}, \cap{sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt} \stoptext This shows everything in EconomistTT, with the "consectetur" part in normal sentence case and the "sed do..." part in simulated small caps. I can also print everything up to sed... in real small caps by adding \definetypeface[ecolayout][sc][Xserif][EconomistTTSC] (which I guess is equivalent to just replacing "EconomistTT" with "EconomistTTSC" in the test script above. But how do I tell XeTeX to use EconomistTT for all normal letters but EconomistTTSC when the \sc type switch is on? Thanks so much for your help!

Tracking macro expansion
by Oliver Buerschaper 06 Nov '09

06 Nov '09

Dear all, how can I check whether a macro I defined is actually expanded into what I intended? For example, if I define \define[2]\Test{#2, {\it #1}} is there a (Lua?) function like check(\Test{Hello}{world}, string) that would return true for string = "world, {\it Hello}" and false otherwise? If the macro is a bit more complicated than this I usually get caught by a mistake rather quickly ... so a quick check would be very handy for me. Many thanks for your help, Oliver

Usage of filename in document
by Martin Scholz 06 Nov '09

06 Nov '09

Hi List, is there a way in conTeXt how I can use a filename, so that I can write a text where I can refer to it for using it in the following scenario: I need 4 documents with nearly the same content. what I like to do is to switch in the document depending on the called filename. as I got a file called invoice.tex and create some links to this file called delivery.tex order.tex and so on and now call texexec invoice.tex or texexec order.tex I want the document to recognize in the first case that it is invoice and in the second case that it is order, so that I can use an if then else environment on the different parts where I can define the following if{filename==invoice} then{print this content} else{} if{filename==order} then{print this part of content} else{} Thanks for your help. Greetings Martin

Allow indentation of typing environments
by Matthijs Kooijman 05 Nov '09

05 Nov '09

Hi all, I'm having the following problem (or rather, inconvenience). When typing my ConTeX, I tend to properly indent all of my text, following the section headings. This makes my source a bit more readable. However, when I apply the same tactic to typing environments, all of the indentation is preserved in the output. This is of course to be expected, but it requires me to break the indentation for every typing environment, making very ugly source. Anyone else who also finds this problematic? What I'd like to see, is an option for a typing environment (say, stripindent) that makes the pretty printing code remove a fixed amount of indentation from every line. I've implemented this for some of my custom prettyprinters, but that's a lot of duplicate code, and it won't help others. Ideally, this would look at the indent of the \starttyping command and strip that much, but I don't think this is possible in TeX (or is it?) Slightly less ideal would be to look at all the lines, decide what the smallest indent is, and strip that. This would of course require buffering all the lines and start processing only when the final one is in, which is not very efficient given the current pretty printer implementation. What will probably work well enough is to look at the first line, and strip that much whitespace from all lines. This could be implemented entirely in lua. Would there be any interest for something like this? I could whip up a patch if there is. Where would be the logical place to do this? I don't see any need to let individiual pretty printers keep control over this, so I guess it is best handled before the pretty printers get at the line (So in buffers.typeline, probably. I guess inline \type commands don't need this, so this should work out). This also needs some initialization in buffers.type and buffers.typefile so we can detect what the first line is. Ideally, there would also be some sort of manual override, like: \starttyping[stripindent=4] but, I don't think any options are supported there currently (and adding them is very much over my head, since that would involve serious TeX coding...). To reach a conclusion, if I managed to implement this properly, would there be any interest for using this and including this in ConTeXt? Gr. Matthijs

Getting the width of an expression inside lua
by Matthijs Kooijman 05 Nov '09

05 Nov '09

Hi all, I'm wondering if there is any way to get the width of some TeX (or rather, ConTeXt) expression inside lua, to do some math with it and output it again. I've found the tex macro \setwidthof, which served me well at first, but I need to do some more complex things with this widths (like taking the maximum value of a bunch of widths and using that again in some other places). Doing this in TeX would be my fallback option, but that would be a lot more complex (I'd be generating the TeX code for it, but still...). So, I'm looking for a function that accepts a string (and possible catcodes) and returns the dimensions of that string as if it would be rendered directly with tex.sprint & friends. I've looked around the LuaTex manual a bit, and found the node.dimensions function. However, that function requires a node object, which I have no clue how to get at. Perhaps I could use \setwidthof and get at the value it assigned? Any suggestions? Gr. Matthijs

horizontal position
by Wolfgang Schuster 05 Nov '09

05 Nov '09

Hi, whats the best method to determine the current horizontal position in the text because I want to write a commands which behaves different whether it appears at the begin, end or in the middle of the text. pdfTeX’s savepos information are not the best method because it could take (in the worst case) to many when i have many macros in a paragraph, display math mode can give me the information i want (in combination with savepos information) but i wan't to know if there a side effects. Example: \def\position {\bgroup \forgetdisplayskips \everymath{}% \everydisplay{}% $$\xdef\theposition{\the\predisplaysize}$$% \vskip-2\baselineskip \hskip\dimexpr\theposition-2em\relax \ifhmode\aftergroup\space\fi\aftergroup\theposition \egroup} \starttext text text \position{} text text text text text text text \position{} text \stoptext Wolfgang

about math accents \ddot
by Dalyoung 05 Nov '09

05 Nov '09

Dear all, I am trying to put three dots over "X" in math mode. In LaTeX, \dddot gives what I wanted by using amsmath packages. In ConTeXt, $\ddot X$ gives two dots over X, but \dddot yields a "undefined control sequence" error. "newmath" module doesn't support this accent. Please give me a good way to do that. Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

Re: [NTG-context] Define exercise captions

Please, disregard my last question about enumeration setup. Now I know more and created definition that works fine for me: \defineenumeration[exercise][title=yes, text=Вправа, prefix=yes, prefixset=section, titleleft=, titleright=, after=, inbetween={\blank[medium]}] The trick is that after sets space after the next paragraph text.

Thank you, Aditya, for help! My further questions: Why after={}or after= does not remove the space between enumeration caption and next paragraph? For example: \defineenumeration[exercise][title=yes, text=Вправа, prefix=yes, prefixset=section, titleleft=, titleright=, after=] \exercise{Розрахунок кривої, яка плавно з'єднує заданий відрізок та точку на площині}Якщо нам потрібно з'єднати, наприклад, відрізок, який лежить... produces blank line after the caption. Could we have all the switches listed in tex-show, btw? Now you probably think that giving me advise to use enumerations was not good idea )) Regards, Vyatcheslav

ConTeXt minimals: Issue with file.iswritable and 'Cg'
by Tobias Burnus 04 Nov '09

04 Nov '09

I use contextgarden.net/minimals/ and the following problems showed up after an update. a) file.iswritable(cachepath) failed. The directory is writable for the user but not for others. I have not debugged why it failed. Affected file: tex/texmf-linux/bin/luatools b) bin/mtxrun failed at line 5013: Somehow my lua(tex) did not digest the Cg: protocol = Cg(V("letters"),"protocol") * P("://") + Cg(Cc(nil),"protocol"), tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtxrun:5013: attempt to call local 'Cg' (a nil value) Any ideas? (I removed the readable check as work around and changed the Cg to P as quick work around.) Tobias PS: I use Fedora 6, which is the dated but centrally installed Linux here.

Hi, If you go to http://modules.contextgarden.net/bib, you get a message that no bib module is avaliable. I suppose that you remove the page because bib (will?) is integraded in ConTeXt release. But, can you restore the link or at least put the documentation module avaliable somewhere? The pdf documentation was very good for consulting options... Regards, Xan. PS: CCme

Hi, For what it's worth: On http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Context_2009.10.27, I noticed that t-bib.mkii, t-bib.mkiv, t-bib.tex, t-bibltx.tex, t-bib.xml, and doc/context/bib/bibmod-doc.pdf as well as doc/context/bib/bibmod-doc.tex are all in the list of deleted files. (along with many others). I get the impression that nobody knows why. Are the new files bibl-tra.{mkii, mkiv, lua} their replacement? If so, is there any relevant documentation? (Not mentioned in the list of new files.) Best regards, Robert Blackstone

Re: [NTG-context] Define exercise captions

Hello, >> I want to be only >> Exercise<SectionNumber>.<ExerciseNumber>, like 1.1, 1.2, etc. >> > You may try prefixset=section. > > Thank you, Longmin, for your suggestion, it works! But other problems persist. Hans (or someone else who can fix it), please, look into my minimal example: \defineenumeration[exercise][title=yes, text=Exercise, prefix=yes, prefixset=section, width=fit] %way=bysection, \starttext \exercise{Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla} Bla-bla-bla \stoptext 1) the text is framed in odd manner and goes out of the page 2) the caption text is put into unexpected round brackets 3) the word "Exercise" is repeated twice, second time inside brackets before caption text. Please, fix it because I use it. If it's impossible at the moment, please, suggest me another way of achieving this. Reagards, Vyatchelsav

IncludePicture problem with adityam / simple-slides
by Glen Callaghan 02 Nov '09

Hello, I'm having some problems with "simple-slides". I'm pretty new to ConTeXt - so I've probably done something silly. When I try to use the \IncludePicture command like this: \IncludePicture [horizontal] [test] {A Dutch Cow} I get the errors like "! Missing number, treated as zero" and "! Missing = inserted for \ifnum" (see below). I'm using MacTex-2008 distribution. I've also tried the current context minimals - but got the same result. thanks Glen ------------- (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/sort-lan.mkii)) [1.1] !

leqalignno and labels
by Pau 02 Nov '09

02 Nov '09

Hello, thanks again for all answers regarding labelling. It has mostly worked but I am now having a particular problem with leqalignno. It turns out that the \placeformula[mylabel] works as expected but for \leqalignno This is an example: ---------------------------------- \placeformula[Pflux] \startformula \leqalignno{ f_{q}^{p}(v) &= \frac{32}{5} \nu^{10} v^{10} \left[1 + \log\left(v\right) \left(\sum_{i\geq6}^{k} \ell_{i} v^{i} \right) \right]\cr &\times P_{q}^{p} \left[\left(1 - \frac{v}{v_{\p}} \right) \sum_{i=0}^{k} {\cal{F}}_{i}^{\lf} v^{i} \right],\cr } \stopformula ---------------------------------- Then, when doing Eq.~\in[Pflux] in the text, it will produce an ?? in the resulting pdf. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks, Pau

Some math symbols fail in MetaPost in MKIV
by Andreas Schneider 02 Nov '09

02 Nov '09

Hi, as it seems, some symbols in math mode seem to fail when put inside MetaPost. In the example I tried, both "~" and "|" were causing processing errors when used inside MetaPost (I tried both btex...etex as well as \sometxt). It works fine in MKII however. The minimal example is attached to this mail. Best Regards, Andreas.

Re: [NTG-context] IncludePicture problem with adityam / simple-slides
by Glen Callaghan 02 Nov '09

02 Nov '09

Sorry Aditya, my comments on the \noexpand command weren't quite accurate. In the earlier version of simple-slides, leaving out the \noexpand working, and the header and footer information worked properly. In the new version (with the IncludePicture fix), leaving out \noexpand just results in the text "empty" appearing at 3 (of the 4) header/footer positions. Is it something to do with using variables instead of moduleparameters? .......... not that I know what they are :-) cu Glen

Re: [NTG-context] Define exercise captions
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 02 Nov '09

02 Nov '09

Hello Aditya, Thanks for help again. However, the result is far from OK. [title=yes, text=Вправа, way=bysection, prefix=yes, width=broad] I use enumeration within subsubsection, namely 1.3.1. If I put prefix=yes, the first exercise is 1.3.1.1. That is, it is numbered within subsubsection, while I want to be only <SectionNumber>.<ExerciseNumber>, like 1.1, 1.2, etc. I suspected that [way=bysection] key does the job but it does nothing in this case. And another major issue is: why the text is put in the frame and is either a few centimenters wide (without width=broad) or goes out of the page (with width=broad)? I need just ordinary paragraph. >> Please, try >> >> \starttext >> \defineenumeration[exercise][title=yes, text=Вправа, way=bysection, >> width=broad] >> >> \exercise{Розрахунок кривої, яка з'єднує три точки на площині} >> \stoptext >> >> >> The "Вправа" is putted twice, next time inside some strange brackets. >> The text gets out of the page. > > Looks like a bug in mkiv.

Thanks for the speedy fix, Aditya - that works now. Thanks also for putting together the simple-slides module - very nice to use! By the way, in simpleslides-s-Split.tex, we found we had to remove the \noexpand command from three lines like this one: draw \sometxt[simpleslides:sometxt:left]{\noexpand\moduleparameter {simpleslides:title}{date}} With the \noexpand command left in, most of the header and footer information didn't work. thanks Glen
