problems with comments
by Henning Hraban Ramm 21 Sep '23

21 Sep '23

Hi, I wanted to use PDF comments to leave questions to the author/editor in the correction PDF. Unfortunately, the comment is always empty, regardless if \comment{} or \startcomment. Also, the comment always inserts space into the text, I’d like to avoid that; the option "space=no" doesn’t help. The "author" setting is shown, but as soon as I click on the comment, it changes to my user name. (Might depend on the viewer, but I get the same behavior from Adobe and Apple.) "title" and "subtitle" settings are handled differently by viewers, that doesn’t matter. "location=inmargin": the symbol is at the edge of the text, but not in the margin. Hraban \setupinteraction[ state=start, ] \setupcomment[ author=Don, location=inmargin, ] \starttext \samplefile{knuth} \comment[author=Me]{Here’s a comment.} \samplefile{knuth} \stoptext

units related to paper size
by Pablo Rodriguez 21 Sep '23

Dear Hans, I wonder whether it would be possible to have both units for page width and page height (I guess, pw and ph would be fine). This would be similar to tw and th. Many thanks for your help, Pablo

streams reversed?
by jbf 17 Sep '23

17 Sep '23

I am making some progress with a bilingual text using the streams mechanism suggested by Wolfgang: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Columns, but see below. The aim has been to have en and vi on facing pages (en left, vi right). It works correctly for the Foreword in two languages (en, vi) in frontmatter. When I come to bodymatter and Chapter 1, again it works, except that the positions of the languages are reversed, so I end up with vi on the left and en on the right. By Chapter 2 we are back to the correct position once more (en left and vi right). I want to know why this is happening, and if I can prevent it happening. I am using the code you can see below, except that instead of \startoutputstream[one] and \startoutputstream[two] etc. I am using [en-front][vi-front], and then in bodymatter [en-chap1][vi-chap1] etc. etc. with the relevant repetitions of these identifiers where needed. I assume that to get a degree of synchronization I need to use this approach for each set of chapters. But I cannot understand why the languages alternate their starting page positions each chapter. There are other issues I have to solve, but first of all I wish to resolve this one. Julian The original (Wolfgang) code is as follows: \starttext \startoutputstream[one] \startcolor[red] \dorecurse{10}{\input knuth\par} \stopcolor \stopoutputstream \startoutputstream[two] \startcolor[green] \dorecurse{10}{\input zapf\par} \stopcolor \stopoutputstream \synchronizestreams[one,two] \setbox\scratchboxone\outputstreambox[one] \setbox\scratchboxtwo\outputstreambox[two] \doloop {\ifvoid\scratchboxone \exitloop \else \setbox\scratchboxfour\vsplit\scratchboxone to\textheight \vbox to\vsize{\box\scratchboxfour\vss}% \setbox\scratchboxfive\vsplit\scratchboxtwo to\textheight \vbox to\vsize{\box\scratchboxfive\vss}% \fi} \stoptext

Different behavior of \clf_lastypos vs \clf_lastxpos
by Aditya Mahajan 17 Sep '23

17 Sep '23

Hi, I am trying to debug an unexpected behavior with tikz reported on tex.se: https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/696136/323 The attached file shows what is going wrong (without using tikz). For some reason, there is an extra \relax written to file after `\the\numexp\clf_lastypos\relax` (there is no such relax after `\the\numexpr\clf_lastxpos\relax`). The test.pgf file is: \macro {A}{23930350}{43358454.0\relax } \macro {B}{39564274.0\relax }{14083538} Any ideas on why is the extra \relax written after lastypos and how to fix that? Aditya

stream sync (or \pushoutputstream)
by Pablo Rodriguez 16 Sep '23

16 Sep '23

Dear list, I have the following sample: \showgrid \setuplayout[grid=yes] \starttext \startoutputstream[one] \startcolor[red] \dorecurse{4}{\input knuth\par\pushoutputstream} \stopcolor \stopoutputstream \startoutputstream[two] \startcolor[green] \dorecurse{4}{\input zapf\par\pushoutputstream} \stopcolor \stopoutputstream \null\page \synchronizestreams[one,two] \flushoutputstream[one] \page\flushoutputstream[two] \stoptext With MkIV, stream one is always a line before stream two (11-12, 21-22, 31-32). With LMTX, the output is less reliable, since stream one is one, two and three lines before stream two (11-12, 21-23, 31-34). In some cases, having synced streams is highly desirable. Besides the output difference in LMTX, is there a way to get fully synced streams? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

rotation weirdness
by Hans van der Meer 16 Sep '23

16 Sep '23

I encountered something weird, that I cannot explain. It could be an error, but I was not able to pinpoint this. It seems as if the \rotate macro plays havoc with the macro definitions used to set the color of the frame and an outside title. Placing the outside title before the rotate proves that the call to \rotate is the culprit. I enclose an MWE with a little jpeg figure as illustration. yours sincerely dr. Hans van der Meer \def\formattitle#1{\color[\boxtitlecolor]{#1\strut}} \def\boxfigurerotate#1#2{% \rotate[rotation=10]% {% \externalfigure[#1]% [rulethickness=4pt,width=100pt,height=50pt,frame=on,framecolor=\boxframecolor,]% }% \formattitle{#2}% } \def\boxfigure#1#2{% \externalfigure[#1]% [rulethickness=4pt,width=100pt,height=50pt,frame=on,framecolor=\boxframecolor,]% \formattitle{#2}% } \def\boxtitlecolor{blue} \def\boxframecolor{blue} \starttext \ConTeXt\ \contextversion \blank Problem:\crlf it looks like \type{\rotate[]{}} kills the definition of boxtitlecolor.

Re: streams reversed?
by jbf 16 Sep '23

16 Sep '23

My feeling at the moment is that this might be about the only way one could go ahead in a production situation, and yes, I am familiar with PDF tools that can achieve this, though it is effectively stepping aside from ConTeXt and working with PDF. For that matter I can easily go ahead with a commercial program that solves all the problems thus far indicated. I think it is true to say that at the moment, the streams mechanism is far too klunky to be able to use it extensively. For a handful of pages (and especially if the two streams re absolutely equal in length) it is workable. Beyond that, at least for the moment, it is not, and I am afraid I do not have the luxury of time to try to refine it. Your efforts, Bruce, are hugely appreciated, but also confirm the difficulties faced thus far. Julian On 15/9/23 22:44, Bruce Horrocks wrote: > An alternate option, might be to consider producing the body matter as two 'independent' books, one with the pages on the left and page numbered 1,3,5 and the other numbered 2,4,6 and then merge them as PDF pages into the final book. Then merge frontmatter and back matter. If you are reasonably familiar with PDF splitting / joing tools then this might be the simplest solution.

Using structureuservariables before the heading

14 Sep '23

Hi, is it possible to access a structureuservariable before the heading's title ? Using the <before> key does not seem to work. As an aside, I've tried to use the < command > key to provide my own command, but while \define works here (but ignores \blank), \def gives me an error. Why is that? How would you add blanks to a user-defined command?

Bug(?) in https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Tabulate#Spanning_Multiple_Pages
by Jim 11 Sep '23

11 Sep '23

Hi, In https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Tabulate#Spanning_Multiple_Pages the wiki has "internal error: convert failed". Removing \color[red] from \setuptabulate in that example gives a working example (at least in a separate file on my machine). I tried changing the title specification to title={\color[red]{Fenchurch St. Paul}}, as well as title={{\color[red]{Fenchurch St. Paul}}}, but both of these reward me with a runaway context process. Can someone point out the correct way to do what the wiki intended? Thanks. Jim P.S. Bonus question: should an incorrect use of color really cause an (apparent) infinite loop, or is that a second issue which deserves to be on some to-do list?

Table of contents of unnumbered titles

Hi, I am creating a document which is divided with the unnumbered levels (\title, \subject, ...). I would like a table of contents showing the names and page numbers, something like Blah blah blah 2 Blah blah 4 ... However, notwithstanding what I see in https://wiki.contextgarden.net/index.php?title=Titles&mobileaction=toggle_v… I can't get this to happen with unnumbered divisions. The above wiki reference says "the following might do that trick" but I think "might" is the keyword, since even the wiki doesn't show the "No number" entry in the \completecontent. I find it hard to imagine that I am the only Context user who wants to do this. Can anyone point me in the direction of a working example? And am I misinterpreting the wiki, or is the wiki page broken? Thanks. Jim

Verbatim Textbox with Reference NUmbering
by Jeroen 09 Sep '23

09 Sep '23

This is a longshot, but would be great to have. Below I have at MWE1 the verbatim codefragment textbox I am using. I found in the forum MWE2 which is a textbox with an automatic reference number. Is there a way to get the same for MWE1 with automatic reference numbering like 1.1, 1.2 etc for chapter 1, codefragment 1, 2 etc. with the possibility that in the text I can refer to the codefragment like \in{codefragment\space}[code:ccpsample] similar as to tables and figures? Thanks Jeroen %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % MWE1 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \startuseMPgraphic{mpos:par:myexample} path p; for i = 1 upto nofmultipars : p := multipars[1] topenlarged 4pt bottomenlarged 4pt cornered 2mm ; fill p withcolor 0.95white ; draw p withcolor black withpen pencircle scaled \MPvar{linewidth}; endfor; \stopuseMPgraphic \definetextbackground [listingbackground] [state=start, mp=mpos:par:myexample, location=paragraph, topoffset=0.4em, leftoffset=0em, rulethickness=0.7pt] \definetyping[Listing] [option=commands] \setuptyping [Listing] [bodyfont=10pt, margin=1em, before=% {\blank[3*medium] \setupinterlinespace[line=2.4ex] \starttextbackground[listingbackground]}, after=% {\stoptextbackground \blank[4*medium]}, align={flushleft,verytolerant}] \starttext \startListing this is a code example \stopListing \stoptext %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % MWE2 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \startuseMPgraphic{FunnyFrame} picture p ; numeric w, h, o ; p := textext.rt(\MPstring{FunnyFrame}) ; w := OverlayWidth ; h := OverlayHeight ; o := BodyFontSize ; p := p shifted (2o,h-ypart center p) ; draw p ; drawoptions (withpen pencircle scaled 1pt withcolor .625red) ; draw (2o,h)--(0,h)--(0,0)--(w,0)--(w,h)--(xpart urcorner p,h) ; draw boundingbox p ; setbounds currentpicture to unitsquare xyscaled(w,h) ; \stopuseMPgraphic \defineoverlay[FunnyFrame][\useMPgraphic{FunnyFrame}] \defineframedtext[FunnyText][frame=off,background=FunnyFrame] \def\FrameTitle#1% {\setMPtext{FunnyFrame}{\hbox spread 1em{\hss\strut#1\hss}}} \setMPtext{FunnyFrame}{} % Add the enumeration \defineenumeration [Counter] [text=, alternative=empty, before={\FrameTitle{Counter \getnumber[Counter]} \startFunnyText}, after={\stopFunnyText}] \starttext \startCounter First example \stopCounter \startCounter Second example \stopCounter \stoptext
