nolist still gives textellipsis???
by Steffen Wolfrum 16 Sep '08

16 Sep '08

Hi, I remember Henning was fighting with this quite a while ... but eventually this was solved, wasn't it? Shouldn't the following give NO textellipsis in the TOC: \starttext \setuplist[chapter][limittext={}] \completecontent \chapter{aaa\nolist{bbb}ccc} \stoptext (?) Steffen

Needless empty page at end
by Holzminister 16 Sep '08

16 Sep '08

Hi again! When I compile the example of http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Alternating_backgrounds_and_repeating_layers with "texexec -lua" or "-pdf" I get an additional empty page at the end of my document. It shows the watermark but neither text nor the pagenumber. This workaround unfortunately doesn't work: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Empty_page_at_the_end Any ideas? I'm using the latest garden-minimal. Good night, Eyke

How to put descriptionheads into the index?
by Holzminister 15 Sep '08

15 Sep '08

Hi! Let's assume I have a description like the one in the wiki: >>> \startdescr{Para} This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it. The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented. \stopdescr >>> Now I want to have "Para" in my index. I tried something like >>> \definedescription[descr][ command={\index{#1}}] >>> But that puts only a "descr" into the index. Is there another automated way to achieve my wanted effect? Thanks in advance, Eyke

Lucida again on mac osx
by Eric DÉTREZ 15 Sep '08

15 Sep '08

I sent this message last week. ********************************************************************* Hello I know that I disturb a lot this list, please forgive me. I tried to install a new mac. I donwloaded mactex (2008) I installed lucida fons in ~/Library/texmf/ then I typed "sudo mktexlsr" and "sudo updmap-sys --enable Map lucida.map" in terminal All is fine with plain TeX, I can use my lucida fonts. I copied all my afm and pfb files in a directory then I typed "texfont --fontroot=/Users/Ericd/library/texmf --ve=bh -- co=lucida --ma --in --expert" from this directory in terminal. (don't understand the --ma --in -- expert things) It made a lot of job, map files, tfm files. The texnansi-bh-lucida test file seems to work (it's a long task, I only asked to show LucidaBright). BUT \usetypescript[lucida][texnansi] \setupbodyfont[lucida,10pt] doesn' show me Lucida in my pdf. What did I do wrong ? ********************************************************************* Since I installed mactex 2006 and it went right (but cmr is uggly, there are not any ligature, first is written rst) The same happens to my main computer : I use mactex 2007, everything goes well ; I tried to install mactex 2008 and, again, the lucida fonts are replaced by computer modern (or latin modern ?) All my fonts afm, tfm and so on are local, in the ~/Library/texmf folder. I wish to install mactex 2007 : where can I find it ?

Font problem and font question
by Eric DÉTREZ 15 Sep '08

15 Sep '08

Hello again In Context Manual it is said that we can define new fonts. There is an example : \definebodyfont[10pt,11pt,12pt][rm][tfe = Regular at 48pt] I tried the text : *************************************** \definebodyfont[10pt,11pt,12pt][rm][tfe = Regular at 48pt] \starttext \tfe gros texte \stoptext *************************************** and the compiler answers *************************************** ! Undefined control sequence I.5 \tfe gros texte *************************************** I don't understand . Now a font question : is it a way to define casual (or cs) as italic, boldface or handwriting ? I wish to type {\cs casual} to get the world "casual" written with my LucideCasual font.

'See also' entries in register

I know everyone is preparing for fun in Bohinj (and I am gutted that I am missing it this year) but it would be really great if someone had the chance to work out how to fix this problem: \starttext I wish I was going to the ConTeXt\index{ConTeXt} meeting this year to enjoy all the fun\seeindex{ConTeXt}{also fun}. \placeindex \stoptext I get output like this: -- I wish I was going to the ConTeXt meeting this year to enjoy all the fun. c ConTeXt see also fun 1 -- But I want this: --I wish I was going to the ConTeXt meeting this year to enjoy all the fun. c ConTeXt 1 see also fun -- Why is the page number of the first index entry attaching itself to the "see" subentry instead of the top level entry? Is it my syntax, or is it a bug? Thank you... Duncan

The first example works. The result is: "Goldstein (2003)" but unfortunately it is impossible to combine it with the [extras={:95}] option to get the page number behind the citation. If you type \cite [authoryear][extras={:95}] it won't work. Although I've tried it with the [authoryear,page] nothing works. The result of the second example is "Goldstein (vgl. 2003)". I've tried to use the left={} option instead, but nothing changed. \setupcite [authoryear] [pubsep={, }, lastpubsep={ und }, compress=yes, inbetween={}, left={(vgl. }, right={)}] still leads to the result Goldstein (vgl. 2003) when I type in the command \cite [authoryear][G:2003]. It seems to be impossible to place something (like "vgl.") in front of the name of the author and inside of the brackets like (vgl. Goldstein 2003:95) I couldn't find anything specific about these problems in the bib-manual. Perhaps you or someone else can help me? Regards Martin

fitting a picture to the available space
by Thomas A. Schmitz 12 Sep '08

12 Sep '08

Hi guys, I'm pulling my hair out. I'm trying to set up an automatism to fit pictures to the available space on a slide. I need to consider three parameters: 1. If the user supplies a value for width= or height= , use this value (captured in a macro); 2. respect the maxwidth and maxheight which must not exceed the frame; 3. if the picture is smaller than the available space, blow it up so that it reaches the maxwidth or maxheight (but doesn't exceed either). factor=max or =fit does not work because it allows pictures to exceed one of the maximum values. About a year ago Giuseppe Bilotta wrote a message which I append; it describes my problem. Is there a generic solution for this problem? If there is, I'll gladly take it; if there isn't, I thought I had a solution but may need help with expanding and conditionals, then I'll be back with more questions. Anyway, good night all, and thanks.

Request for "digested" readers: please change subject
by Mojca Miklavec 12 Sep '08

12 Sep '08

Hello, ConTeXt mailing list is really a huge one and an overkill to follow it as a whole. But to all those of you who read mail in digested mode: feel free to hit reply and answer there, but then please: a) delete all the other non-relevant 24 messages in the digest b) If original subject was "ConTeXt rules!", please change the subject from "ntg-context Digest, Vol X, Issue Y" into "Re: ConTeXt rules!" or "Re: [NTG-context] ConTeXt rules!" It will still mess up the threading a bit (this happens a lot anyway), but simplify matters to all other readers of the mailing list. I think that gmane offers some possibility to answer via their interface as well, but I have never tried it. Thanks a lot, Mojca

One very silly question
by Yue Wang 12 Sep '08

12 Sep '08

Hi, I read the manual, and it said: rm, ss,tt,hw,cg are styles, bf,it,bi,sl,bs, sc, os, tf are alternatives. one can use one alternative in one style like \rm\bf. However, I think we should add more alternatives like boldsmallcaps or bold old style number? in opentype, smcp, onum are just features, and every alternatives (like bold, bold italic) have them. btw, I think there should be a (fontconfig like) mechanism for setting up opentype fonts easier?

Consider this example with and without the mode "seven": %\enablemode[seven] \starttext \setupTABLE[r][2,3,4,5,6,7][height=6ex] \bTABLE[width=0.125\textwidth] \bTR \bTH 1. col\eTH \bTH 2. col\eTH \bTH 3. col\eTH \bTH 4. col\eTH \bTH 5. col\eTH \bTH 6. col\eTH \doifmode{seven}{\bTH 7. col\eTH} \eTR \bTR \bTD[nr=6]6 rows in 1. col\eTD \bTD[nr=2]2 rows in 2. col\eTD \bTD[nr=6]6 rows in 3. col\eTD \bTD[nr=2]2 rows in 4. col\eTD \bTD 1 row in 5. col\eTD \bTD[nr=2]2 rows in 6. col\eTD \doifmode{seven}{\bTD\eTD} \eTR \bTR \bTD[nr=2] 2 rows in 5. col\eTD \doifmode{seven}{\bTD\eTD} \eTR \bTR \bTD[nr=2]2 rows in 2. col\eTD \bTD[nr=2]2 rows in 4. col\eTD \bTD[nr=4]4 rows in 6. col\eTD \doifmode{seven}{\bTD\eTD} \eTR \bTR \bTD[nr=2] 2 rows in 5. col\eTD \doifmode{seven}{\bTD\eTD} \eTR \bTR \bTD[nr=2]2 rows in 2. col\eTD \bTD[nr=2]2 rows in 4. col\eTD \doifmode{seven}{\bTD\eTD} \eTR \bTR \bTD 1 row in 5. col\eTD \doifmode{seven}{\bTD\eTD} \eTR \eTABLE \stoptext Any hints, you to adjust the heights without the dummy column?

A ConTeXt bug tracker to keep track of reported bugs?
by Khaled Hosny 11 Sep '08

11 Sep '08

I've reported several bugs (mostly Arabic related) and I'm afraid it might get lost as time goes, I wonder if there is a bug tracker for ConTeXt where we can track reported bugs? I searched the wiki and I didn't find any thing. -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localizer and member of Arabeyes.org team

first steps with \dosingleempty
by Goebel, Juergen 11 Sep '08

Hi, Regarding the following example I've got two questions. (1) Why don't I ever see the argument #2 in the output? (2) What do I have to do to suppress the unwanted space after the end of the output of this macro (as can be seen in the result before the following comma)? Regards, Juergen \def\Geb{\dosingleempty\doMyGeb} \def\doMyGeb[#1]#2#3{, x % \iffirstargument% Aha \else \ifsecondargument% #2 \else% ... %C% \fi \fi \ifthirdargument% #3% \else% ...% \fi} \starttext \Geb{Ulm}{11. 9. 2008} % should deliver x Ulm 11. 9. 2008 \Geb[Ulm]{Ulm}{11. 9. 2008} % should deliver x Aha Ulm 11. 9. 2008 \Geb{}{11. 9. 2008} % should deliver x ... 11. 9. 2008 \Geb{Ulm}{} % should deliver x Ulm ... \Geb{}{} % should deliver x ... \stoptext

use of the \cite command (bib-module)
by Martin Hoher 11 Sep '08

11 Sep '08

Hello, concerning the bib-module and the \cite command I've got two questions: (1) The output in the text of the document should look like this: Goldstein (2003:95). The name of the author should be located on the outside of the brackets. Goldstein refers to the name of the author, 2003 is the year of publication and 95 is the relevant page number. My approach until now: \cite[extras={:95}][G:2003] It generates the following output: (Goldstein 2003:95) (2) The output in the text should look like this: (vgl. Goldstein 2003:95) My intention is to place the expression "vgl." in front of the authorname and inside of the brackets. If someone has an idea to solve this little problem, it will be great to here from you soon. Greetings Martin

Strange behaviour with tikz
by Eric DÉTREZ 11 Sep '08

11 Sep '08

Hello again I don't understand a strange thing. Patterns in tikz become black in some case. Here is a minimal example : *************************************** \usemodule[tikz] \usetikzlibrary[patterns] \starttext blabla \chapter {blabla} \starttikzpicture \draw [pattern=north west lines](0,0) rectangle +(1,2); \stoptikzpicture \stoptext ************************************* Without any text before the chapter or without the chapter command I see the patterns. With these commands I just see a black rectangle. Can I get my patterns back ?

How do you obtain the same result as \setuphead[chapter][header=option(,footer=option)] ( option = none empty high nomarking ) in a document where [header/footer][left/rightedge]="not empty" on chapter pages i.e. only [header/footer][text]=option for chapter pages and others ( left/right edge ) are not modified ? -- Best, Alan * using ConTeXt ver: 2008.08.18 14:00 MKIV fmt: 2008.8.22 int: english/english (on Windows XP)

Although I must admit, that this 'handling' might be an advantage of LaTeX. I never wanted to learn TeX, but maybe now I have to (at least to some extent).

defining (new) macros with optional arguments

Hi, Does something like \newcommand exist in ConTeXt? My questions aims especially at the optional argument with a predefined value. So, how do I realize \newcommand{\test}[2][A]{foo} with ConTeXt. In the fine manual I found an index entry \definecommand, but in the 'rest' of the manual it was never mentioned (print and screen version alike)! Regards, Juergen

The windows minimal exe installer

Hi, For automatic environment setup, I think there are two values should be changed for better directory support: TEXMFCNF --> ...\texmf\web2c (why did it find texmf-local/context on my machine ?) TEXMF ---> {...} // add values like texmf-fonts, texmf-project, texmf-extra, etc. defined in setuptex.bat. Yue Wang

sometxt in mkiv
by Thomas A. Schmitz 09 Sep '08

09 Sep '08

Hi all, I was just wondering if this is a bug or if it's something that still needs to be implemented: the example on p. 10 of Mojca's sometxt MyWay works in mkii, yet in mkiv, it doesn't: \starttext \startTeXtexts \dorecurse{12}{\TeXtext{\recurselevel}{\recurselevel}} \stopTeXtexts \startMPcode numeric r; r = 1.5cm; draw fullcircle scaled 2r; for i=1 upto 12: draw (origin--down) scaled 4pt shifted (0,r) rotated -30i; label(sometxt(i), up scaled .75r rotated -30i); endfor; \stopMPcode \stoptext in mkiv, I get no labels and the somewhat cryptic sentence "[do we need TeXtexts in MkIV]" on my pdf. Anybody able to answer this or my question? All best Thomas

german Umlaut 'ß'
by Goebel, Juergen 09 Sep '08

09 Sep '08

Hi, My next problem seems to be the german umlaut 'ß'. Running the following example delivers only six of the seven wanted characters, while the 'ß' is left blank. I'm not sure whether this might be a problem with my editor WinEdt, but I'm sure you can show me the right direction. Regards, Jürgen % language=de tex=pdfetex output=pdftex \usetypescript[modern] \mainlanguage[de] \enableregime[utf] \setupencoding[texnansi] \starttext äöüß ÄÖÜ \stoptext
