Hi Wolfgang, Actually, this does not work. Adding this option only adds blank lines between items, that is, breaks other options. \setupitemize[1, indenting=yes, packed, nowhite, intext] > \setupitemize[indenting=yes] > > Wolfgang Minimal example: \starttext \setupitemize[1, indenting=yes, packed, nowhite, intext] Some Text Some Text Some Text Some Text Some Text Some Text Some Text Some Text Some Text \startitemize \item {\it OpenGL }(Open Graphics Library) – найбільш розвитий і швидкий промисловий стандарт, \item {\it Direсt3D –} використовується як убудована мова в операційних системах Windows, \item {\it Heidi} – використовується в AutoCAD і інших програмах. використовується в AutoCAD і інших програмах. \stopitemize Some Text Some Text Some Text Some Text Some Text Some Text Some Text Some Text Some Text \stoptext Regards, Vyatcheslav

about math accents \ddot
by Dalyoung 05 Nov '09

05 Nov '09

Dear all, I am trying to put three dots over "X" in math mode. In LaTeX, \dddot gives what I wanted by using amsmath packages. In ConTeXt, $\ddot X$ gives two dots over X, but \dddot yields a "undefined control sequence" error. "newmath" module doesn't support this accent. Please give me a good way to do that. Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

Re: [NTG-context] Define exercise captions
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 05 Nov '09

05 Nov '09

Please, disregard my last question about enumeration setup. Now I know more and created definition that works fine for me: \defineenumeration[exercise][title=yes, text=Вправа, prefix=yes, prefixset=section, titleleft=, titleright=, after=, inbetween={\blank[medium]}] The trick is that after sets space after the next paragraph text. I wonder why http://texshow.contextgarden.net/cmd/setupenumerations is empty. Regards, Vyatcheslav

Setup captions

Hi all, How to setup captions so that they include only section number (no subsections, etc.) and figure number within the section? That is, <SectionNumber>.<FigureNumber> My first guess \setupcaptions[style=\tfx, prefix=yes, prefixset=section] does not work. Regards, Vyatcheslav

Thank you, Aditya, for help! My further questions: Why after={}or after= does not remove the space between enumeration caption and next paragraph? For example: \defineenumeration[exercise][title=yes, text=Вправа, prefix=yes, prefixset=section, titleleft=, titleright=, after=] \exercise{Розрахунок кривої, яка плавно з'єднує заданий відрізок та точку на площині}Якщо нам потрібно з'єднати, наприклад, відрізок, який лежить... produces blank line after the caption. Could we have all the switches listed in tex-show, btw? Now you probably think that giving me advise to use enumerations was not good idea )) Regards, Vyatcheslav

Dear Sirs I would like to include some macros from http://melusine.eu.org/syracuse/poulecl/macros in my luatex documents. Every time i try to include a new example (from papier.mp, par example) i found this old error message:; texnum.mp Unable to make mpx file. init_numbers(btex $-$ etex, btex$$etex, btex ${\times}$10etex in the google i found a old solution for this kind of error, but for LaTeX not for mplib or LuaTeX. Is there a fresh solution for that? Syracuse provide to us a nice solutions for writing maths and physics with metapost. Thanks a lot. Jorge

ConTeXt minimals: Issue with file.iswritable and 'Cg'
by Tobias Burnus 04 Nov '09

04 Nov '09

I use contextgarden.net/minimals/ and the following problems showed up after an update. a) file.iswritable(cachepath) failed. The directory is writable for the user but not for others. I have not debugged why it failed. Affected file: tex/texmf-linux/bin/luatools b) bin/mtxrun failed at line 5013: Somehow my lua(tex) did not digest the Cg: protocol = Cg(V("letters"),"protocol") * P("://") + Cg(Cc(nil),"protocol"), tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtxrun:5013: attempt to call local 'Cg' (a nil value) Any ideas? (I removed the readable check as work around and changed the Cg to P as quick work around.) Tobias PS: I use Fedora 6, which is the dated but centrally installed Linux here.

Where is the bib module link?
by Xan 04 Nov '09

04 Nov '09

Hi, If you go to http://modules.contextgarden.net/bib, you get a message that no bib module is avaliable. I suppose that you remove the page because bib (will?) is integraded in ConTeXt release. But, can you restore the link or at least put the documentation module avaliable somewhere? The pdf documentation was very good for consulting options... Regards, Xan. PS: CCme

Re: [NTG-context] Where is the bib module link?
by Robert Blackstone 04 Nov '09

Hi, For what it's worth: On http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Context_2009.10.27, I noticed that t-bib.mkii, t-bib.mkiv, t-bib.tex, t-bibltx.tex, t-bib.xml, and doc/context/bib/bibmod-doc.pdf as well as doc/context/bib/bibmod-doc.tex are all in the list of deleted files. (along with many others). I get the impression that nobody knows why. Are the new files bibl-tra.{mkii, mkiv, lua} their replacement? If so, is there any relevant documentation? (Not mentioned in the list of new files.) Best regards, Robert Blackstone

possible to run minimal in cygwin?

Hi all, I wonder if it possible to run the MSWin version of context-minimal under Cygwin. I want to use Makefile and other unix tools to automate my build process. I tried modifying the context/tex/setuptex script, and manually set the platform variable to mswin, but when I ran context.cmd, I saw the following error message. The texmf-cache path actually exists. Any hint?

Hi, I'm student at Faculty of Informatics at Masaryk university and I'm writing bachelor's thesis this year. One part of the thesis is to document language support and implementation in ConTeXt so someone can use it to implement new language. Right now I'm stuck with command \installlannguage. I can't figure out what these parametres are doing: \c!leftsentence=---, \c!rightsentence=---, \c!leftsubsentence=---, \c!rightsubsentence=---, So I'would really appreciated some more info about them. Thank you for your answers. Tomas Pustelnik

Hello, >> I want to be only >> Exercise<SectionNumber>.<ExerciseNumber>, like 1.1, 1.2, etc. >> > You may try prefixset=section. > > Thank you, Longmin, for your suggestion, it works! But other problems persist. Hans (or someone else who can fix it), please, look into my minimal example: \defineenumeration[exercise][title=yes, text=Exercise, prefix=yes, prefixset=section, width=fit] %way=bysection, \starttext \exercise{Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla} Bla-bla-bla \stoptext 1) the text is framed in odd manner and goes out of the page 2) the caption text is put into unexpected round brackets 3) the word "Exercise" is repeated twice, second time inside brackets before caption text. Please, fix it because I use it. If it's impossible at the moment, please, suggest me another way of achieving this. Reagards, Vyatchelsav

That worked, thanks. BTW - I had lots of trouble trying to download from github. I only got a html file (worked ok the previous time). I ended up copying the text from the Split file and pasting it over the text in my file here. thanks again Glen

IncludePicture problem with adityam / simple-slides
by Glen Callaghan 02 Nov '09

02 Nov '09

Hello, I'm having some problems with "simple-slides". I'm pretty new to ConTeXt - so I've probably done something silly. When I try to use the \IncludePicture command like this: \IncludePicture [horizontal] [test] {A Dutch Cow} I get the errors like "! Missing number, treated as zero" and "! Missing = inserted for \ifnum" (see below). I'm using MacTex-2008 distribution. I've also tried the current context minimals - but got the same result. thanks Glen ------------- (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/sort-lan.mkii)) [1.1] !

leqalignno and labels
by Pau 02 Nov '09

02 Nov '09

Hello, thanks again for all answers regarding labelling. It has mostly worked but I am now having a particular problem with leqalignno. It turns out that the \placeformula[mylabel] works as expected but for \leqalignno This is an example: ---------------------------------- \placeformula[Pflux] \startformula \leqalignno{ f_{q}^{p}(v) &= \frac{32}{5} \nu^{10} v^{10} \left[1 + \log\left(v\right) \left(\sum_{i\geq6}^{k} \ell_{i} v^{i} \right) \right]\cr &\times P_{q}^{p} \left[\left(1 - \frac{v}{v_{\p}} \right) \sum_{i=0}^{k} {\cal{F}}_{i}^{\lf} v^{i} \right],\cr } \stopformula ---------------------------------- Then, when doing Eq.~\in[Pflux] in the text, it will produce an ?? in the resulting pdf. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks, Pau

Some math symbols fail in MetaPost in MKIV
by Andreas Schneider 02 Nov '09

02 Nov '09

Hi, as it seems, some symbols in math mode seem to fail when put inside MetaPost. In the example I tried, both "~" and "|" were causing processing errors when used inside MetaPost (I tried both btex...etex as well as \sometxt). It works fine in MKII however. The minimal example is attached to this mail. Best Regards, Andreas.

Re: [NTG-context] IncludePicture problem with adityam / simple-slides
by Glen Callaghan 02 Nov '09

02 Nov '09

Sorry Aditya, my comments on the \noexpand command weren't quite accurate. In the earlier version of simple-slides, leaving out the \noexpand working, and the header and footer information worked properly. In the new version (with the IncludePicture fix), leaving out \noexpand just results in the text "empty" appearing at 3 (of the 4) header/footer positions. Is it something to do with using variables instead of moduleparameters? .......... not that I know what they are :-) cu Glen

Re: [NTG-context] Define exercise captions
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 02 Nov '09

02 Nov '09

Hello Aditya, Thanks for help again. However, the result is far from OK. [title=yes, text=Вправа, way=bysection, prefix=yes, width=broad] I use enumeration within subsubsection, namely 1.3.1. If I put prefix=yes, the first exercise is 1.3.1.1. That is, it is numbered within subsubsection, while I want to be only <SectionNumber>.<ExerciseNumber>, like 1.1, 1.2, etc. I suspected that [way=bysection] key does the job but it does nothing in this case. And another major issue is: why the text is put in the frame and is either a few centimenters wide (without width=broad) or goes out of the page (with width=broad)? I need just ordinary paragraph. >> Please, try >> >> \starttext >> \defineenumeration[exercise][title=yes, text=Вправа, way=bysection, >> width=broad] >> >> \exercise{Розрахунок кривої, яка з'єднує три точки на площині} >> \stoptext >> >> >> The "Вправа" is putted twice, next time inside some strange brackets. >> The text gets out of the page. > > Looks like a bug in mkiv.

Thanks for the speedy fix, Aditya - that works now. Thanks also for putting together the simple-slides module - very nice to use! By the way, in simpleslides-s-Split.tex, we found we had to remove the \noexpand command from three lines like this one: draw \sometxt[simpleslides:sometxt:left]{\noexpand\moduleparameter {simpleslides:title}{date}} With the \noexpand command left in, most of the header and footer information didn't work. thanks Glen

Why formulas have space before but don't have space after
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 01 Nov '09

01 Nov '09

Hello everyone again, There is a problem I encounter every time I use math and which drives me mad. Why formulas have space before but don't have space after? What is the most elegant way to dial with it? In the following example, the expression is glued to the text that follows (which is certanly unwanted): Допустимо нам поставлена задача з'єднати три точки на площині, що не лежать на одній прямій. Найпростішим рішенням такої задачі буде з'єднати послідовно дані точки відрізками прямих ліній, причому крива, при такому рішенні, буде апроксимуватися ламаною лінією. Рівняння прямих, що приходять через дві задані точки, як відомо, мають вигляд: $$(х−х_1)/(х_2−х_1)=(у−у1)/у2−у1),$$ де (х1, у1), (х2, у2) -- декартові координати першої і другої точок, відповідно.

No file 'mpx314.aux'

I have written a Venn diagram metapost file, which I successfully ran on Troy Henderson's metapost previewer while at work. prologues:=3; verbatimtex %&latex \documentclass{minimal} \begin{document} etex beginfig(1); draw (0,0)--(200,0)--(200,160)--(0,160)--(0,0); draw fullcircle scaled 80 shifted (80,80); draw fullcircle scaled 80 shifted (120,80); label.lrt (btex $\xi$ etex,(0,160)); label.lrt (btex $A$ etex, (40, 120)); label.llft (btex $B$ etex,(160,120)); endfig; end; However, now that I am working on it at home, the error message "no file 'mpx314.aux'" appears when I try to compile it. I have tried it on my older system (Miktex 2.6 running on Vista) and on my laptop (Miktex 2.8 running on Vista Home Premium). Actually, on the laptop I also get a popup telling me that "dvitomp.exe has stopped working" and directing me to the Windows update page. Am I doing something silly, or is this a bug, or what? Thanks kindly. Joel.
