Reading product environment within a component file
by Romain Diss 02 Dec '12

02 Dec '12

Hi all, Since I read the thread concerning the LaTeX \includeonly equivalent, I tried again to make to project structure work for me (I gave up some time ago). Here is my problem: I have a product file p.tex %% p.tex \startproduct p \environment e \component c \component d \stopproduct %% end an environment file e.tex %% e.tex \startenvironment e % style commands... \stopenvironment %% end and two component files c.tex and d.tex %% c.tex (d.tex is the same file, except content part) \setupreferencing[autofile=yes] \setupinteraction[state=start] \startcomponent c \product p % content \stopcomponent but no project file. When I run context on the product file, everything is ok. But when I run context on one component file, it doesn't read the environment file because the \product command doesn't seem to be read (that's what I understand from the documentation). So, how should I do to inform context to read the environment mentionned in the product file. Is it obligatory to use a project file to be able to read the parent environment when processing a component? Another question which I think is linked to the previous one is: is one supposed to run context on a component? My different tests shows that a run on a component load all the other components mentionned in the product. So it seems to be equivalent to run context on a product or on a component (except for the environment problem mentionned before). That's also what the wiki seems to say (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Project_structure) "In addition, you have to keep in mind that when compiling a product or component file, ConTeXt goes "up" to the project file and compiles everything it finds in there that is not a \product". So, actually, I'm not able to reproduce the \includeonly equivalent with \component (even if I use \setupreferencing[autofile=yes] and \setupinteraction[state=start]). Do I miss something? All the best. -- Romain Diss <romain.diss(a)yahoo.fr>

Re: [NTG-context] Unresolved third-party modules
by Vyatcheslav Y. 02 Dec '12

02 Dec '12

Thank you, Willi. Actually, it was my outdated installer that set TEXMF vars and caused the trouble. When I removed these vars form envinroment (and updated the installer), modules was found. I heard that some people expirienced probles with installer (nothing strange, it was outdated). I wonder why no one sent me a message to my personal email (stated in installer's first page), since I cannot read every issue in the mailinglist all the time. Regards, Vaytcheslav

'kern': TrueType table and GPOS lookup feature
by Pablo Rodríguez 02 Dec '12

02 Dec '12

Hi there, sorry for bothering again with this issue, but I need to be sure in order to properly report to the font developer of FreeSerif. I have the following file: \usemodule[simplefonts][size=25pt] \definefontfeature[latins][default][script=latn] \setmainfont[FreeSerif] \starttext \showfontkerns dadedidodufafefifofufrflftlalelilolutatetitotu\par \addfs{latins} dadedidodufafefifofufrflftlalelilolutatetitotu\par \stoptext The first line has no GPOS kern enabled and the second line has it. In order to report it to the font developer (I have the problem not with ConTeXt, but with my ereader [I used ConTeXt to check the font features), I have the following questions: -In the example above, is the old TrueType kern enabled on the first line? -If not, how can I enable it, without enabling the liga or kern OpenType features? I need this to see the actual kerning form the old TrueType kern table (I suspect it hasn't the same values as the OpenType kern feature). Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

ConTeXt to Plaintext

Is there any possibility to get the plaintext out of my context-file? F.e. in programms like Indesign or Word that is trivial, so is there any tool, which deletes all commands and just leave the plain content? Thanks Huseyin

Hi all, are there people who use typescripts from my collection which are available with minimals in combination with XeTeX. I'm planing to remove the MkII files and will only keep files which are in use. For people who use MkIV there is nothing to worry because these files will be kept. Wolfgang

two bugs in the latest beta of context mkiv
by Jannik Voges 02 Dec '12

02 Dec '12

Hello, I want to report two bugs in the latest beta of context mkiv. When I typeset the following example, I get the sectionnumber 1 for the second subsection. I would expect the sectionnumber 2.0.1 for that subsection. This problem (wrong sectionnumber) also appears in the table of contents. \starttext \chapter{A Chapter} \section{A Section} \subsection{A Subsection} \chapter{Another Chapter} \subsection{Another Subsection} \stoptext In my attempt to circumvent this problem I tried to write my own table of contents (the number in the headlines were easy to fix) with \writetolist[toc]{number}{text}. But \writetolist seems to be broken, because the sectionnumber is missing. As an minimal example you can use the example from the context-wiki: \definelist[Reprints][criterium=all] \starttext \section{Sec 1} \writetolist[Reprints]{1.}{List entry A}% \writetolist[Reprints]{}{With no number}% \subsection{Subsec 1} \writebetweenlist[Reprints]{\hrule} \writetolist[Reprints]{2.}{List entry B}% \completelist[Reprints] \stoptext As you see, the horizontal line appears at the top of the list and not after the second entry. So there seems to be an additional bug. Sincerely Jannik

request for a few volunteers to test distribution on new server
by Mojca Miklavec 01 Dec '12

01 Dec '12

Dear ConTeXters, we will point the distribution to the new server later today (for a moment without any significant changes). Before we do that I would like to ask some of you to try out ./first-install.sh --server=distribution.contextgarden.net to make sure that I didn't do any obvious mistake on the way. The changes that I'm aware of are the following: 1.) changed names of math fonts deleting fonts/opentype/public/lm/lmmath-regular.otf deleting fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre/texgyretermes-math.otf deleting fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre/texgyrepagella-math.otf fonts/opentype/public/lm-math/lmodern-math.otf fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre-math/texgyrepagella-math.otf fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre-math/texgyretermes-math.otf 2.) some font documentation is missing, I forgot to include Asana Math (fixing it) and there are some euler fonts there were not present earlier (I need to look into that) 3.) gone: /doc, /experimental, /pragma, /texlive (none of those is used, but /doc is now under /current/doc) 4.) alpha and dated context versions are gone (hardly make any sense since they are too old and hardly usable) 5.) I see lots of (so far unexplained) changes in TikZ. I didn't try to figure out what those are. 6.) I didn't set up headers/footers/icons yet to make the few semi-(non-)useful notes on the website. Mojca (PS: there are other changes on the way, but I first want to make sure that the old distribution will keep working as it did now.)

decorated
by Hans Hagen 01 Dec '12

Hi, In metapost (running metafun) the following does not work: draw image ( draw fullcircle scaled 20cm withpen pencircle scaled 20mm withcolor red withtransparency (1,.40) ; draw fullcircle scaled 15cm withpen pencircle scaled 15mm withcolor green withtransparency (1,.30) ; draw fullcircle scaled 10cm withpen pencircle scaled 10mm withcolor blue withtransparency (1,.20) ; ) withcolor blue withtransparency (1,.125) % selectively applied withpen pencircle scaled 10mm ; Here the last transparency gets only applied to the first element of the picture. For this reason, the following new variants of 'image' are provided: decorated : adds to the current properties, last one wins redecoreated: replaces the current properties (color and transparency only, pens are kept) undecorated : ignores the specification This will work with the upcoming metapost/mplib release but I like to mention it now (before I forget).

ConTeXt Minimal Installer for Windows
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 30 Nov '12

30 Nov '12

New version of ConTeXt Installer for Windows is available (v1.4). It is a GUI wizard of small size (< 2MB), which downloads latest context distribution, sets PATH for binaries, and generates format files. Then ConTeXt works out-of-the-box. Together with TeXWorks tool, it takes a few minutes from beginning of installation to writing your first document. Works fine for all Windows versions. Known issues: On my Windows 8 machine, post-install 'make' fails, but it can be run manually then. Thanks to Mojca for her help. Regards, Vaytcheslav

But this does not work if I use "\page~\page" (I need that in some cases for manually inserting a empty page). So the question is how to insert empty pages – but of course respect them in page numbering, I mean that the number is not shown on the page, but the page is counted, s.t. the next pages have the correct numbers).

Re: [NTG-context] Unresolved third-party modules
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Hi, Wolfgang, I believe it doesn't matter what parameter is, because the files are downloaded successfully. I use not first-setup.sh, but my own Windows installer. One thing that is different from the last time I updated my Context (more than year ago), is texmf-modules folder in the root. So, now the path to fullpage is D:\contextminimal\texmf-modules\tex\context\third\fullpage while it was D:\contextminimal\texmf-context\tex\context\third\fullpage Maybe texmf-modules is not registered in the tree for some reason? Maybe, it needs a separate environment variable set, e.g. TEXMODULES?? Regards, Vyatcheslav

toppath
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Hello, there was a discussion about 'toppath' or 'pathrelativetome'. Is 'toppath:' prefix working? Or what other way is to refer to the path of the current file (i.e. the file I'm referring from)? The following code doesn't work - "t-Hello.mkiv" is not found although it's located in the same directory as "t-TopPath.mkiv"; the "t-TopPath.mkiv" is compiled from ONE LEVEL UP. So e.g. let's have: c:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Test\t-TopPath.mkiv c:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Test\t-Hello.mkiv and let's switch to current (working) directory to: c:\Lukas\ConTeXt and call: context.exe Test\t-TopPath.mkiv In this situation compilation fails. How to make it work? TIA. Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.

Hi there, there are some possibilities for getting empty pages in a book, f.e. if a new chapter begins (and by settings it may only begin on pages with odd pagenumber). In these cases I want the page-number and the headers to disappear on the empty page, it should be totally empty, if no text is in it. How to achieve that? Thanks Huseyin
