Wolfgang, > Use ?align={flushleft,nothyphenated}?. You mean as in \setuphead[chapter][style=\tfc\ss\bf, alternative=inmargin, align={flushleft, nothyphenated}] I tried that and it has no effect. I also found this article here: http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/35686/avoid-hyphenation-in-chapter-t… ...which suggests using \setuphead[chapter][align={flushleft, nothyphenated, verytolerant}] ...but that makes no difference either. My chapter titles continue to run off the page to the right. I am happy to post an example somewhere if that helps. Thank you, Malte.

Integration of all the information around ConTeXt
by Jan Heinen 16 Mar '12

16 Mar '12

Hello, with the help of ConTeXt and the ConTeXt-Mailinglist I successfully have generated a book which will be printed next week :-) Thankl you - everyone! And now I would like to give something back to ConTeXt :-) There is a lot of information around ConTeXt: Material of Hans Hagen, this very dynamic Mailinglist/Forum, the command-reference-list of Wolfgang Schuster and the Contextgarden-Wiki. I think the best what I can do for ConTeXt is helping to structure, organize and integrating the huge amount of existing information. And the wiki ist a very good place to do al this work. Since several years I am running an own wiki with mediawiki. After informing Hans, Taco and Mojca Miklavec, I no have started, to rename all the commands from reference/en/... to command/... The .htaccess takes care, that all the old names will be forwarded to the new names. Then I have build a startting-category: "ConTeXt" and every subcategory is a branch of it. So we have a tree with all the wiki-information starting at "ConTeXt". You can find this startingpoint on http://www.contextgarden.net on the right side: Categories. I have started to organize the sub-categories ... but everyone who likes ConTeXt is invited to improve the wiki. A very good help would be: All the commands of context (more than 500) are in one huge category:commands For the users it would be usefull to build subcategories for the commands. 1. login (or first register on contextgarden.net) 2. Go to a command, e.g. command/about: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/about 3. Click on edit (top of page) 4. go to the bottom of the source-code 5. add to [[category:Commands]] [[category:xxx]] xxx = new name or existing name 6. save the changes 7. now you can see the category at the bottom of the page. 8. if it is red - click on it 9. then write [[category:commands]] to link it to the tree, I hope lot's of you help at least a little bit ... it's fun :-) And it's for ConTeXt. Regards Jannis

more indenting
by Alan Braslau 16 Mar '12

16 Mar '12

I'm sure that someone is going to tell me that indenting is ugly, bad typesetting practice. But if I do want to use indenting, there are times when it should be suppressed, perhaps automatically (like when immediately following a heading, as is the current practice). The minimal example below is another such situation: \startquotation\stopquotation \setupquotation [before=\noindent,after=\noindent] would be one solution, but it does not work - maybe the syntax is wrong; maybe I'm missing a critical \par. I haven't managed to figure this out myself, looking at the source code. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Line Wrapping/Hyphenation in Chapter/Section Headings
by Malte Stien 16 Mar '12

16 Mar '12

Hi all, I seem to have a problem with line wrapping/hyphenation in chapter/section headings. I have a chapter heading "Technical Definitions, Acronyms and Abbreviations". When I setup my chapter headings as follows \setuphead[chapter][style=\tfc\ss\bf, alternative=inmargin] the heading is hyphenated like so: Technical Definitions, Acronyms and Abbrevi- ations However, I don't want my headings hyphenated. How can I change that? I found this: \setuphead[chapter][style=\tfc\ss\bf, alternative=inmargin, align=nothyphenated] That prevents the hyphenation, but it also seems to prevent the wrapping of the line altogether with the result that now my headings run right across the right margin and over the right edge of the paper. How can I turn off hyphenation but retain wrapping of the line, like so Technical Definitions, Acronyms and Abbreviations Thank you, Malte.

define macro from xml-attribute
by Meer, H. van der 16 Mar '12

16 Mar '12

I would like to accomplish the following in xml processing. <node macro="various macro calls"> and then define the attribute value as a TeX macro. For example, to use this in font switching: <node macro="\switchtobodyfont[helvetica]"> Doing this in the following manner does not work: \startxmlsetups namespace \def\macro{\xmlattdef{#1}{macro}{\empty}} \stopxmlsetups The contents evaluates not to a working macro. Something with catcodes, I presume, but I do not how to do it properly. Preferably I would like to see \meaning\macro evaluate to: \switchtobodyfont[helvetica]. Can someone enlighten me?

Hi, the minimal example below maybe looks funny ... I was trying to fake one big paragraph (without parapgraph break). Here an image needs to be placed eg. on the second or third page (because its anchor is set eg. after the first third of this long paragraph). How can I place a float with out triggering a paragraph break?

random background picture in metafun
by Thomas A. Schmitz 15 Mar '12

15 Mar '12

Hi all, scenario: for a presentation, I want the background to be a random picture, taken from a directory "backgroundpics." The pictures are numbered consecutively as 1.jpg through 22.jpg. For some complex reasons, it would be easier for me to include these pictures via metafun (I want to add other graphical elements on top). So my question is, how can I pick a random picture? Given the code StartPage ; draw externalfigure "backgoundpics/1" xscaled PaperWidth yscaled PaperHeight ; StopPage ; how can I obtain a random number and make metapost pick the corresponding picture? Sorry, difficult to make a minimal example here... Thomas

Bug in \setuplist
by Willi Egger 15 Mar '12

15 Mar '12

Hi Guru's While typesetting an old book (original is from 1853) I need to tweak the table of contents. It looks as follows: CHAPTER II. BEES CAPABLE OF DOMESTICATION. Astonishment of persons at their tameness, 25. Bees intended for the comfort of man. Properties fitting them for domestication. Bees never attack when filled with honey, 26. .... I have attached a minimal example which works in Context version 2011.07.19 but not in 2012.01.25 nor in todays beta. Compilation stops with an error complaining that the \MycommandA has an extra }. Further there is the question how to get roman numerals when using the \Mycommand. - I realize, that all optional keys are ignored at the moment that the alternative=command is used. Kind regards Willi

Footnotes in formulas

Styling of naturaltable headings

"Styling 1" does this correctly for the table body but not for the head. Any ideas how I might get an sans serif font in my table heading? Thanks! Steffen

xml tree extension?
by Meer, H. van der 14 Mar '12

14 Mar '12

Is it possible to have the following order of actions? <root> <file name="filename1"> <file name="filename2"> .. </root> The file contains an xml-tree starting at <fileroot>.. At the moment I am processing the files with \xmlprocessfile{fileroot}{filename}{}, but this generate separate node-lists for <root> and <fileroot>; at least, that is my understanding of its workings. Can I change the processing in such a way that something akin the following tree structure is processed, each time with a new file: <root> <file name="filename1"/> <fileroot> .. </fileroot> <file name="filename2"/> <fileroot> .. </fileroot> .. </root> Or is it impossible to accomplish?

Re: [NTG-context] More CJK fall-back fonts (S Barmeier)

Dear Severin, Try the following in the preamble. \usetypescriptfile[your-typescript file-name]%if you save it as another file. \usetypescript[MyIPAex] \setupbodyfont[Myface, rm, 12pt] I hope that it helps you. If it doesn't work for you, then other experts can tell you something. Simplefont is a good module which makes font-definition easy. But the different style of the name of Korean fonts hindered me to use it. There may be a way to use simplefont for Korean fonts which I don't know yet. Best regards, Dalyoung

non-standard still breaks as non-stan- dard the stan- protruding from the text-block, whilst the rest of the line is compressed as much as possible...

Nested floats
by Prashanth 12 Mar '12

12 Mar '12

Hi, I need to create some small tables that are (possibly) next to each other. Though I could make text flow around tables and appear to the left or to the right of the table, I could not manage something like this: +--------------------------------------+ | | | | Table 1 content | Table 2 content | | | | | Table 1 TITLE | Table 2 TITLE | | | | +------------------|-------------------+ So I tried to use nested floats to achieve this (floats because I want each to have its own number and title). Below my mail, I have pasted the code I used to accomplish this. I don't understand why, but it starts numbering with 7 onwards. Is there a way I can fix the numbering? Best regards, Prash \setupheads[chapter][page=no] \starttext \chapter{first} \section{1st section} hello \section{2nd section} hello again \placetable[here,none][]{}{ \bTABLE[frame=off] \bTR \bTD \placetable[force][tab:first]{derivation for sentence}{ \bTABLE[frame=off,align=center] \bTR \bTD abc \eTD \bTD def \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD ghi \eTD \bTD jkl \eTD \eTR \eTABLE } \eTD \bTD \placetable[force][tab:second]{derivation for sentence}{ \bTABLE[frame=off,align=center] \bTR \bTD abc \eTD \bTD def \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD ghi \eTD \bTD jkl \eTD \eTR \eTABLE } \eTD \eTR \eTABLE } \chapter{Second} \placetable[here,none][]{}{ \bTABLE[frame=off] \bTR \bTD \placetable[force][tab:third]{derivation for sentence}{ \bTABLE[frame=off,align=center] \bTR \bTD abc \eTD \bTD def \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD ghi \eTD \bTD jkl \eTD \eTR \eTABLE } \eTD \bTD \placetable[force][tab:fourth]{derivation for sentence}{ \bTABLE[frame=off,align=center] \bTR \bTD abc \eTD \bTD def \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD ghi \eTD \bTD jkl \eTD \eTR \eTABLE } \eTD \eTR \eTABLE } \placetable[here,none][]{}{ \bTABLE[frame=off] \bTR \bTD \placetable[force][tab:fifth]{derivation for sentence}{ \bTABLE[frame=off,align=center] \bTR \bTD abc \eTD \bTD def \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD ghi \eTD \bTD jkl \eTD \eTR \eTABLE } \eTD \bTD \placetable[force][tab:sixth]{derivation for sentence}{ \bTABLE[frame=off,align=center] \bTR \bTD abc \eTD \bTD def \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD ghi \eTD \bTD jkl \eTD \eTR \eTABLE } \eTD \eTR \eTABLE } \stoptext

Hi all, Also with the todays beta I am unable to get Martin Vogel symbols. If \showsymbols[martinvogel 2] is used a long list of symbols is typeset, but not what is defined as this symbolset. Calling \setupsymbolset[atronomic] \symbol[zodiac] does result in the text zodiac in the document. Hints would be appreciated, kr Willi

Footnotes
by Willi Egger 12 Mar '12

12 Mar '12

Hi all, I try to make-up an old book... Due to the fact that it is a scientific text there are footnotes: about 70 I have them all in buffers. However when saying \footnote{\getbuffer[1]} I get an ugly new line in the footnote at the bottom of the page. - How to prevent this unnecessary hard-return? Secondly there is a problem with the numbering when the footnote is called from a tabulate-environment. In place of starting with 1 it starts with 2. The most strange thing is, that in case of two footnotes in tabulate the numbering even starts with 3. I need to refer to the reference of footnotes. So if the first footnote is \footnote[1]{\getbuffer[1]} I say \note[1] where it is needed. However I get the double questionmark for a missing reference. I would be happy to finalize this book, but ... Willi

mathml
by Meer, H. van der 12 Mar '12

12 Mar '12

I ventured a first try of mathml in my code, but clearly I am doing something wrong. One of the examples in the XML-publication is: <math> <apply><root/> <cn>3</cn> <apply><times/> <apply><plus/><ci>a</ci><ci>b</ci></apply> <apply><minus/><ci>c</ci><ci>d</ci></apply> </apply> </apply> </math> It doesn't result in a neat formula, but there only appears: "3 ab cd". Is there a module I have to include? or what else? Hans van der Meer

Strange error message
by Otared Kavian 11 Mar '12

11 Mar '12

Hi all, Has anyone encountered the following situation with the betas from last January until today? I have a document some 100 pages (each page being an \input), which is correctly typeset with ConTeXt version 2011.11.29 mkiv, but gives me the following error with the recent mkiv betas: the message is <to be read again> } <inserted text> ...onstructionparameter \c!level } \setevalue {\??constructio... \define_construction ... \everydefineconstruction \let \currentconstruction ... <inserted text> ...r =\v!description ,\c!level =1] \else \defineconstruction ... \define_description ...he \everydefinedescription \let \currentdescription \... <to be read again> \startpacked … In order to localize the error I have tried to add little by little my \input files, and everything works when I have about 20 pages… I am reporting this issue just for debugging reasons, since for the real project I still use the 2011.11.29 version. Indeed I should apologize since I am not able to submit a minimal example, my project itself being somewhat complex (at least from my perspective… not for a guru!). Also, I should say that in recent previous betas the error message was different, but I have not anymore those versions to report what the exact message was. Thanks for any insight: OK

enumeration numbering in the margin, title in body text
by Tobias Columbus 10 Mar '12

10 Mar '12

Hi all, I am new to ConTeXt and asked myself if it is possible to have only the number of an enumeration in the margin and the title in `serried` position. Here is an example of what I think: margin | text --------------------------- | blah blah | blah blah 1.1| Definition (something): blah | 1.2| Lemma: blah After digging a while in the documentation and code, I came to the conclusion that this is currently not possible. Then I tried some fiddling in the context code and this directly leads to my second question: I modified the file strc-des.mkiv. However, the changes seem to be ignored by my context binary. What did I do wrong? I also tried context --generate, but that also did not i make context aware of my changes. Any help would be appreciated Tobias

Referring to items
by Kip Warner 10 Mar '12

10 Mar '12

Hey list, I am following the instructions here but they do not seem to be working: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Enumerations#Referring_to_items I have an item block typeset with the following: \startitemize[R,2*broad][start=11] \setupitemize[left=(, right=)] \item[first_item] another item \item another item \item[last_item] another item \stopitemize I attempt to reference the first item with the following: \in{item}[first_item] But all I see in the final PDF are two ?? characters where I expected the reference. -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com

glyph width issues with \setscript[hanzi]
by S Barmeier 10 Mar '12

10 Mar '12

Not quite sure what causes this problem, but for particular text widths in combination with \setscript[hanzi], the glyph width gets thrown off. \setuplayout[width=110mm,height=200mm] \usemodule[simplefonts] \setscript[hanzi] \setcjkmainfont[IPAexMincho] \starttext ?? \input tufte \stoptext The question marks are too tight (almost on top of each other). This also affects parentheses ( ) and other punctuation , . but I haven't been able to reproduce those in a minimal example. The question marks above should illustrate the problem, though. Severin

More CJK fall-back fonts
by S Barmeier 10 Mar '12

10 Mar '12

At the moment I have \setcjkmainfont to a Japanese font. How do I specify more fall-back fonts, e.g. for Korean script. Also I may need to use a different font for IPA (phonetic characters). Is there a way of specifying a fall-back font for a particular range of Unicode characters? Thank you. Severin

Getting a Header Line to Start from Left Margin
by Emmanuel Asante 09 Mar '12

09 Mar '12

Hi All, I have a chapter heading text starting in the left margin and a hairline below my header texts spanning the full width of the header. Since the chapter begins in the left margin, there is no line on top of the chapter heading text in the margin. How can I get the line to also start in the margin where the chapter heading text begins? Thanks Emmanuel

CJK hyphenation/line breaking
by S Barmeier 09 Mar '12

09 Mar '12

Korean has spaces, so I guess I am only asking for CJ, but I was wondering if it is possible to enable line breaking, i.e. cheap hyphenation for CJ(K). I can only speak with certainty for Japanese, but at least here the rules are quite simple. There is no kerning for Japanese characters, so when the line is full it spaces all characters evenly (preferably as close together as the font allows) and dumps everything else to the next line, no matter if it is in the middle of a word (a concept not quite as well defined as in languages with spaces anyway). I can do this by hand if absolutely necessary, by inserting fake spaces "\ \!", but this gets quite tedious, and it seems line breaking for CJ(K) would be nice to have. I remember it working about a year and a half ago(?)... Severin
