\startplacefigure equivalent of \placefigure
by Romain Diss 18 Nov '12

18 Nov '12

Hi all, I did not find the \startplacefigure equivalent of: \placefigure [high,low] % <- here are the options I need {test} {\externalfigure[pic-test]} I checked in the sources but found nothing about these 'high', 'low' options. Anybody has an idea? Thanks in advance. -- Romain Diss <romain.diss(a)yahoo.fr>

How to permit the section-title to be set alone on the page-buttom? I do not want to start always a new page with \section, but in the cases, where the title is set alone on the page, it should start a new page before \section. Huseyin

simpleslides placeTitle undefined control sequence
by Ondřej Hošek 18 Nov '12

18 Nov '12

Hi, I've encountered another simpleslides problem, which can probably be chalked up to mkiv's "moving target" status. Minimal example: \usemodule[simpleslides] \setupTitle[title=Hi] \starttext \placeTitle \stoptext Error with mkiv, ConTeXt 2012.11.14 11:37: ! Undefined control sequence. {snip} <argument> \??vars :simpleslides:title: \dousestylehashparameter #1#2->\ifcsname #1 #2\endcsname \expandafter \douses... \dostartattributes ...estylehashparameter {#1}{#2} \dousecolorhashparameter {... \placeTitle ...pleslides:title:}\c!style \c!color \simpleslidestitlecomponen... l.4 \placeTitle Cheers, ~~ Ondra

Odd bug with \startitemize
by Rogers, Michael K 18 Nov '12

18 Nov '12

For some reason I used someone's earlier posting to test something about my tex software and accidentally happened upon this odd behavior. If the \startitemize code below is repeated 10 or more times, either with \dorecurse or by pasting it ten times, only one is typeset. If nine times, then all nine are typeset. If "Some text" is un-commented, then all ten are typeset along with "Some text." (If working with the pasted version, the "Some text" can appear after the first or second iteration, or before any iteration that appears on the first page, and all itemizations will appear.) Michael MWE: ------------------------ \starttext %Some text \dorecurse{10}{ \startitemize \item Find a well-ordered set. \startitemize[n, columns, four][stopper=,left=(, right=)] \item $\{ 2 + \frac{1}{n}, n \in\naturalnumbers\}$ \item $[0, 1)$ \item $\{3 - \frac{2}{n}, n \in \naturalnumbers\}$ \item $ \reals$ \stopitemize \stopitemize } \stoptext ________________________________ This e-mail message (including any attachments) is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.

Yes, now I did. And this is the result: mtxrun | kpse fallback with progname 'context' initialized in 0.078 seconds This is the only line in the editor after compiling. And "mtxrun --generate" did not help. What does that error means? Is still any path missing? (I added various different pathes into the context directory. Huseyin

Epub woes
by Bill Meahan 17 Nov '12

17 Nov '12

I tried to generate an epub document using ConTeXt following the recipe on the wiki. Didn't work. So, I tried running the export-example.tex file that comes with the distribution, unmodified. Same bad results. Cover is not generated TOC is not generated (though it is noted this might be the state of the export) Sectioning doesn't happen. Paragraphing doesn't happen. The resultant epub file cannot even be opened with FBReader. Importing the epub into Sigil shows one big blob of text, with only the between word spacing that's present in the source file. The \quotation{} markup did get turned into quotation marks, chapter numbers were generated and the rest of the markup was stripped out. Same behavior with both the TeXLive 2012 version of ConTeXt and a quite recent beta. Up-to-date Ubuntu 12.04 Linux Escherton 3.2.0-32-generic #51-Ubuntu SMP Wed Sep 26 21:32:50 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux What am I doing wrong? -- Bill Meahan Westland, Michigan USA

Paths for ConTeXt in Texworks

My question is: I want to be absolutely sure, that no word is written in the margin with my settings. And if I use only \setuptolerance [tolerant] it might still happen. The reason for the smal tolerance was, that I want very small tolerance (= nice result ?) in most cases, but if a word is written in the margin, then it should stretch (word in the margin = worst case for me)
