setuppagenumbering with location=none
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 23 Aug '09

23 Aug '09

Hi, Strange, but \setuppagenumbering[location=none] moves page numbers to the bottom of the page. I guess this is invalid command altoghether, but nevertheless, it does something unexpected :) Vyatcheslav

Re: [NTG-context] Contents label before contents

23 Aug '09

Hello I want to place contents in the beginning of the document with "Contents" label above it. If I do like \placecontent \section{Sec1} \section{Sec2} ... it's ok, but \section{Contents} \placecontent \section{Sec1} \section{Sec2} ... does not work (no content table is placed at all). Could someone please advise me what to do. Regards, Vyatcheslav

referenced titles + special characters
by Črt Gorup 23 Aug '09

23 Aug '09

Hi I am having some problems with referenced titles and our special characters. In my document I have the following definition -> \mysection[pri:seed] {Priloga C: Tabela ovrednotenih MeSH označb}. Title is generally (in the table of contents and in the document) rendered fine, but when I use it as a reference -> glej \about[pri:seed], stran \at[pri:seed] the output in the pdf is wrong -> glej »Priloga C: Tabela ovrednotenih MeSH oznaÄŊb«, stran 36. Does anybody have any idea how to fix it? My settings which might have an influence to this problem: \enableregime[utf8] \mainlanguage[sl] \definehead[mysection][section] \setuphead [mysection][coupling=section,incrementnumber=list] \setuphead[mysection][command=\MySectionStyle, header=high, style={}] \def\MySectionStyle#1#2{ {\tfa#2} } Thanks, Crt

bold header turns regular again

Hello, I have just found an old piece of code (that has been misbehaving for a long time). The last number is printed in regular instead of bold typeface in both mkii and mkiv: \startitemize[n][headstyle=bold] \head a\par aa \head b\par \head c \head d \stopitemize (I know a workaround, so no urge to fix it, I just thought it might be worth reporting it.)

bib module: changing citation style locally
by Mojca Miklavec 21 Aug '09

Hello (Taco or anyone else), I have an impression that it used to be possible to say \cite[author][reference], but I'm obviously doing something wrong here, I only get Xxxxxxx or in case of [data] I don't get anything at all (I'm using mkii). Here's an almost-minimal example: \usemodule [bib] \setuppublications [alternative=num, criterium=all, sorttype=cite] \setuppublicationlist [artauthor=\normalshortauthor, author=\normalshortauthor] \starttext first: \cite[Knoll] second: \cite[author][Knoll], \cite[alternative=author][Knoll] third: \cite[data][Knoll] \startpublication[k=Knoll,t=book,a=Knoll] \title{Radiation Detection and Measurement} \author[]{Glenn Frederick}[G.~F.]{}{Knoll} \pubname{Wiley, John \& Sons, Incorporated} \pubyear{1979} \stoppublication \placepublications \stoptext Thanks in advance for any hints, Mojca

What color is "screen"?
by Mojca Miklavec 19 Aug '09

19 Aug '09

Hello, a half-philosophical question (not too relevant). I was wondering: what color exactly is the "screen" (\framed[background=screen]{...})? Or is it a special effect maybe? I know that using it has long been deprecated, but I used it in many older documents as it was easiest to remember without having to think what shade of gray to use to make the highlights in document come out nice. But I just figured out that it became invisible on my screen. One can still see it very very faintly if computer screen is under some weird angle, but a normal glimpse shows nothing. When printed it usually comes out with a rather high contrast. (It may be that I have just changed screen contrast by accident.) I was trying to find the revent line with color, but I don't find it. I noticed grph-fig.mkii: \c!backgroundscreen=.8, but 0.8 is definitely higher that used in documents by default. Thanks, Mojca

suggestions for MKIV
by Peter Münster 19 Aug '09

19 Aug '09

Hello Hans, Since there is no more need, to keep compatibility with MKII (there are already a lot of differences), I suggest - for the benefit of beginners - to change at least 2 things: - let \framed or \externalfigure behave like \parbox and \includegraphics in LaTeX, i.e. no more need to put \dontleavehmode before the command (the current behaviour is just not very intuitive...) - let align=left|right behave correctly Cheers, Peter -- Contact information: http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

It is however in my bigger texlive 2008 installation. The set command shows: TEXMFCACHE=/home/safer/context/tex/texmf-cache TEXMFOS=/home/safer/context/tex/texmf-linux TEXROOT=/home/safer/context/tex so that part is OK.

rawmathcollection eats input
by Hans van der Meer 18 Aug '09

18 Aug '09

In trying to get the math of LucidaBright working, I took as basis the file with mathdefinitions that worked under MKII; that one was derived from an original file in the ConTeXt distribution. Typesetting "\starttext Hello world \stoptext" makes the first word "Hello" disappear. This behaviour can be traced to the start-stop pair: \startrawmathcollection[lucibr] %\definemathcommand ... \stoprawmathcollection Their inclusion (even without any definitions inside) effects the disappearance of the first word; their use came from the original file, it is no invention of mine. \startmathcollection..\stopmathcollection do not pose this problem. Question: why does this happen? I must admit I am unaware of the special role of the raw variant \startrawmathcollection instead of just \startmathcollection. Is this the way to go?

Using: the minimals beta distribution. I have added a new map-file for the inclusion of pfb font files in the texmf-local tree: --/fonts/map/pdf/, where the other maps reside. But luatex seems not to find it: luatools --find-file reports nothing. The file however is fine, because if I add it to the directory where the file being TeX-ed is, then it is found indeed. I did things like luatools --generate, mktexlsr, but this did not help. Obviously I am missing the point. Where? Hans van der Meer

Hyperlinks with MkIV

Any idea how to get hyperlinks to work in MkIV? The following example works fine for MkII, but no color nor hyperlink in MkIV. \setupcolors[state=start] \setupinteraction[state=start] \useURL [garden][http://contextgarden.net][][Context garden] \starttext The \from[garden] is useful. \stoptext -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localiser and member of Arabeyes.org team Free font developer

math typesetting problem in MKIV
by Brian R. Landy 18 Aug '09

18 Aug '09

Hi, I have a small equation I am attempting to typeset. Using MKII it comes out fine, but under MKIV the text "non-perf. bal." is not typeset correctly (non-perf is instead nonperf with the dash under the 'p', and extra space appears after 'bal.') \starttext \math{\text{adjusted smm}={{(\text{vTr}+\alpha\times\text{sTr})\times(\text{perf. scheduled bal.})+\text{iTr}\times(\text{non||perf. bal.})}\over\text{balance}}} \stoptext I just updated minimals to ConTeXt 2009.08.17 10:43 and LuaTeX beta-0.42.0-2009071723 and still see the issue. Thanks, Brian

Luatex cache problems with current beta
by Lutz Haseloff 18 Aug '09

18 Aug '09

Hi Hans , Hi all, with the latest beta only luatools --generate generates cachefiles for the trees. context --generate gives: C:\contextminimal>context --generate context --generate MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' Since some days ago I have two luatex-cache folders, one under c:\Temp and one under c:\contextminimal\texmf-cache. That's why I deleted both at the last ConTeXt update today. setuptex.bat sets TEXMFCACHE to c:\contextminimal\texmf-cache. It seems, that luatools writes the cachfiles to the right directory, but context tries to read from c:\Temp\luatex-cache, which not exists. Greetings Lutz

some (older) problems
by Thomas Floeren 18 Aug '09

18 Aug '09

Hi, on 2009-06-18 there was a mail on the list with a collection of mkIV problems, a big part related to references and captions. (original text below) I just did a quick re-check with the actual minimals and lua, with the following result: Problems 2), 3) and b) are gone, problems 1), 4), 5), a) and c) are still there. I'm not sure if the remaining problems are due to bugs or rather a result of my poor comprehension of certain changes/new things in the mkIV code (especially c). Any help would be appreciated.

Can I use pdftex and texexec with latest download.
by John Culleton 17 Aug '09

17 Aug '09

Been away from Context for a while so please bear with me. I just downloaded context-minimal to my home directory using the sh ./first-setup.sh script. I want to use pdftex primarily and now and then regular Context with texexec. I note that the download has references to luatex however, which I don't need/don't want to fool with. Is this download OK for my purposes or must I use another download method? -- John Culleton Create Book Covers with Scribus/e-book $5.95 http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html

Integration limits with Cambria Math
by Michail Vidiassov 17 Aug '09

17 Aug '09

Dear All, if I process the following with "ConTeXt ver: 2009.08.14 10:48 MKIV/LuaTeX, Version beta-0.42.0-2009071723" I get too much space between the integral sign and limits of integration. Sum limits are positioned OK. Without "cambria" lines integral is also fine. --------------- \usetypescript[cambria] \setupbodyfont[cambria] \starttext Inline $ \sum_{x=a}^{b}{f(x)g(x)}=\int_{a}^{b}{f(x)g(x)dx} $. \startformula \sum_{x=a}^{b}{f(x)g(x)}=\int_{a}^{b}{f(x)g(x)dx}. \stopformula \stoptext -------------- Is it a bug? Are there fixes/workarounds? Sincerely, Michail
