Dear List, I have an example, where the formula should be more left. Maybe something with \startalign? setuppapersize[A4] \setcounter[userpage][439] \setupbodyfont[modern, 12.95pt] \setuplayout[backspace=2.9cm, width=13.50cm] \defineenumeration [theorem] [ text=Theorem, title=yes, width=fit, distance=0.2em, alternative=serried, ] \definetextbackground[GrayBackground][ location=paragraph, background=color, backgroundcolor=lightgray, leftoffset=.5\bodyfontsize, rightoffset=.5\bodyfontsize, topoffset=.5\bodyfontsize, bottomoffset=.5\bodyfontsize, frame=off,] \starttext \blackrule[color=black, height=0.10ex, width=13.50cm]\dontleavehmode \inrightmargin{\blackrule[color=black, height=0.10ex, width=1.11cm]\par {\bf 7.3.53}} \usecolors[svg] \setupinteraction [state=start, contrastcolor=cornflowerblue] \reference[Abschnitt:1]{7.3.52} {\bi Beweis (von Proposition \goto{7.3.53} [Abschnitt:1]). \tf Die Eigenschaften (i)-(iii) fol-\par gen unmittelbar durch leichte Rechnung aus der Definition. \blank (iv) \space \space Wir berechnen \m u × (\m v × \m w):\nospace \startformula \m u ×(\m v × \m w )=\m u × \startmathmatrix[fences=parenthesis] \NC \m v_2w_3 \NC - \NC \m v_3w_2 \NR \NC \m v_3w_1 \NC - \NC \m v_3w_2\NR \stopmathmatrix \stopformula Many thanks Uschi

compact fonts, fake slanted and \definefallbackfamily (LMTX only)
by Pablo Rodriguez 10 Feb '25

10 Feb '25

Dear list, I have the following sample: \enableexperiments[fonts.compact] \definefallbackfamily [mainface][rm][Dejavu Sans] [sl={style:regular, features:slanted},preset=range:greek] \definefontfamily [mainface][rm][Latin Modern Sans] %[sl={style:regular, features:slanted}] \setupbodyfont [mainface] \starttext αβγ9 some word others\\ \sl αβγ9 some word others \stoptext The only way to get slanted Greek is either with disabled compact fonts, or with fake slanted added to \definefontfamily. I’m experiencing this with LMTX only (MkIV is fine). I’m using current latest (2025.02.07 20:46). Could anyone confirm the issue? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

matching the same child number (XML)
by Pablo Rodriguez 08 Feb '25

08 Feb '25

Dear list, I have the following way to get text from the current XML node: \xmltext{#1}{.} I would like to have the same results matching the same element. I thought the command should read, but I don‘t get the right results: \xmltext{#1}{../*[match()==lxml.match("#1")]} Minimal sample here: \startbuffer[demo] <root> <div id="one"> <p>first</p> <p>second</p> <p>third</p> </div> <div id="two"> <p>First</p> <p>Second</p> <p>Third</p> </div> </root> \stopbuffer \startxmlsetups xml:initialize \xmlsetsetup{#1} {root|div|p} {xml:*} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregistersetup{xml:initialize} \startxmlsetups xml:root \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:div \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:p \xmlmatch{#1}: \xmltext{#1}{.}\\ \xmltext{#1}{../*[match()==lxml.match("#1")]} \stopxmlsetups \starttext \xmlprocessbuffer{main}{demo}{} \stoptext How could I match only the current n-th child? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

parallel texts with columnsets
by Pablo Rodriguez 08 Feb '25

08 Feb '25

Dear list, some days ago, I discovered "m-bibles.mkxl". Unless I miss something, I think this may be a way to have parallel texts (such as original text and translation) in facing pages. I would like to be able to sync two text streams, as in the following minimal sample: \showframe\showgrid \setuplayout [grid=yes] \setupwhitespace [none] \definecolumnset [paral] [n=1] \definesubcolumnset[paral][1][1] \definesubcolumnset[paral][2][2] \setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided] \starttext \startcolumnset[paral] \dorecurse{20}{% \startsubcolumnset[1] \title{Knuth} \flushsubcolumnsets[spread] \stopsubcolumnset \startsubcolumnset[1] \input{knuth} \flushsubcolumnsets[spread] \stopsubcolumnset} \dorecurse{20} {\startsubcolumnset[2] \title{Zapf} \flushsubcolumnsets[spread] \stopsubcolumnset \startsubcolumnset[2] \input{zapf} \flushsubcolumnsets[spread] \stopsubcolumnset} \flushsubcolumnsets[spread] \stopcolumnset \stoptext Sorry, but since the module contains also code for XML handling, I don‘t understand how the whole title and text synching works there. Would anyone be so kind to explain how the sample above could have both parallel titles and texts? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

images with alt text
by Steffen Wolfrum 06 Feb '25

Hi, as publishing houses (at least in Germany) are forced to provide «alt text» with their PDF-publications (from June 2025 on), I need to know how «images with alternate text» (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alt_attribute) are typeset with ConTeXt LMTX. In HTML it looks like this: <img src="example.jpg" alt="Example text"> What is the equivalent in ConTeXt LMTX? Yours, Steffen

> Why do you think these fonts have kern tables at all? > I looked at Optima.ttc with Fontforge and can’t find one. On my system, they do have kerning values. FontForge > Elemente > Schriftinformationen > Nachschlagetabellen > GPOS > kern As I wrote, I can generate new TTF fonts with FontForge from Optima.ttc for example, use them instead and ConTeXt then has access to the kerning table (see attached PDF). I was just wondering if there is a way to use the TTC files directly with ConTeXt.

new upload
by Hans Hagen 04 Feb '25

04 Feb '25

Hi, NOTA BENE: The next upload is kind of special so best save the old tex tree if you update. For quite a while we have an extended expression scanner on board (in luametatex) and after recently testing it a bit more I decided to start using it. A side effect is that we can also use more clever assignments to dimensions and numbers. We already had: \scratchcounter 10 \scratchcounter = 10 \scratchcounter \numexpr 1 + 10\relax \scratchcounter \numexpression 1 + 10\relax etc but these expr have a potential lookahead problem, not so much when used liek this but when we have cases like \numexpr 1 + 10 - #1\relax because no one can predict what #1 is, maybe \numexp 1 - 10/5 which effectively is: \numexpr 1 + 10 - \numexp 1 - 10/5\relax which can run wild so in the end that is not suitable for use in key value situations. As part of our column set experiments we actually want to pass 'expressions', think \framed[height=2\lineheight-\strutdp]{...} or even \framed[height=2 * \lineheight - \strutdp]{...} or even \framed[height=2 * lh - sd]{...} etc. where the 2 * dimension is something not possibel with \dimexpr. So, to keep a long explanation short, we now also support \dimexpr{....} and also \scratchdimen{...} where in the later case we actually use \dimexpression{....} There's also \dimexperimental which has proper priority handler and can mix with integers and floats as well as limited boolean expressions (comparison) while its \numexperimental sibbling can also do bitwise operations. (Actually \dimexpression also can do some of that but one needs to use more ( ) around subexpressions; so \dimexpression conceptually sits between \dimexpr and \dimexperimental). Anyway, more about that in manuals and articles, and it's kind of old news already. The main impact is that now keys that refer to numbers and dimensions can also accept expressions without the need to be explicit, so width=3em + 2em * 4 lines=4 + (5*2 - 1) eventually will all be seen as {something} which as it is valid in assignments will trigger the right expression scanner. The \todimension and \tointeger primitives also accept {} because they scan for a dimension or number as again as side effect do all primitives and engine keyword that matter. They are serializers. Deep down context is now adapted to this: adding many {} in assignments, wrapping parameters in {} so that they can properly nest, replacing /removing redundant \dimexpr etc. All this can have introduced temporary issues but they can be fixed easily, so I think that the benefits outweight temporary issues. Think 'beta'. In case one wonders, there is no real impact on performance because expressions were already quite optimized and the (already kind of old) new scanners even more so. In due time more of the now possible features will be revealed.

Does the return of "wdpart positionwhd" is the width of the box ?

Hi, the metafun function positionwidth doesn't seems to be available, so I triy to use wdpart positionwhd. But in the MVE, the green point is not at the expected position (on the right border of the frame). %%%%%%%%%%%%% \setupheadertexts[] \setuppapersize[A8,landscape] \setupbodyfont[40pt] \startuseMPgraphic{MPMyPage} StartPage ; draw positionbox("locA") withpen pencircle scaled 5pt withcolor transparent(1,0.5,blue); pair ThePoint; ThePoint := positionxy("locA"); draw ThePoint withpen pencircle scaled 5pt withcolor red ; draw ThePoint shifted (wdpart positionwhd("locA"),0) withpen pencircle scaled 5pt withcolor green ; StopPage ; \stopuseMPgraphic \defineoverlay [OLMyPage] [\useMPgraphic{MPMyPage}] \setupbackgrounds [page] [background={foreground,OLMyPage}] \starttext A \framed [region=locA, offset=overlay, frame=off] {\TeX}. \stoptext %%%%%%%%%%%%%
