hidden attachments broken
by Michail Vidiassov 17 Aug '12

Dear Hans and All, if I use example from scrn-wid.mkvi \attachment[file=oeps.tex,title=Oeps,author=Hans,subtitle=TeX File,method=hidden] empty file gets embedded and all specs are lost. If I remove "method=hidden" all is OK - file is there, I can see supplied information in Adobe Reader list of attached/embedded files. I did not trace the cause of file getting empty, but the loss of specs appears to be by design. In 2011 you wrote "The hidden method will not place an annotation." (http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2011/057091.html) but now the comment "hidden = not in menu" in scrn-wid.mkv implies that you also try to hide file information in the list of attached files, so menu entry is just a placeholder with file name "attachment.txt" and empty description. The relevant code piece, where specs and filename are dropped, seems to be in scrn-wid.mkvseems \setvalue{scrn_attachment_method_\v!hidden}% {\ctxcommand{insertattachment{ tag = "\currentattachment", registered = "\currentattachmentregistered", method = "\v!hidden" }}} While such anonymizing mode may be required for some security-obsessed people, who do not want filenames leak into shipped out files, it seems strange not to provide an option to preserve the old behavior (hidden file appears in attached/embedded files list of Adobe Reader with filename and description) and break your own example.

\smash broken in mkiv
by Dominik Leopold Forkert 17 Aug '12

Hi, In the following minimal example \startformula P = \left(\vphantom{\sum}\smash{\sum_{\startsubstack 1 \le i \le p \NR 1 \le j \le q \NR 1 \le k \le r \NR \stopsubstack}} a_{ij}b_{jk}c_{ki} \right) \stopformula \smash does not work properly in mkiv – in mkii it runs just fine! Best regards, Dominik

Hi, I have this code: \bTD[width=.7cm, align={bottom, middle}, topframe=off] \rotate[rotation=90]{Antoni Obrador} \eTD in one table but it does not work. ConTeXt displays it up and left. Is it any bug associated with rotated and align? With lohi suprisely it works. Thanks in advance, Xan. PS: please, CCme.

Hi, I just want to know how to substract \textwidth and 7cm to set width in one \bTD. I receive error if I do directly: "width=\textwidth-7cm" Thanks in advance, Xan.

Throwing an error on missing image with \externalfigure
by Tobias Mueller 17 Aug '12

17 Aug '12

Hi :-) I'd like ConTeXt to raise an error if it can't find an image when using \externalfigure. I really don't want to check a potentially big document for missing images manually and while I could grep the log myself in an additional post processing step, I really want ConTeXt to do raise the error for me, not a potentially broken script written by me. I've seen the other thread: http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2011/059485.html but there is no answer there. I also expected a similar behaviour to "\input" which fails on a non existing file. My thinking was that there is either a switch for "context", i.e. like "-Werror" or a way to set context up from within the document, i.e. by telling it to be in a "final" mode. So my question is: How can I make ConTeXt raise an error on a non found image? Cheers, Tobi

Bug in framed ...
by Bernhard Rosensteiner 17 Aug '12

17 Aug '12

Hi all, i think there is a bug when using rounded corners in frames (ConTeXt ver: 2012.08.16 22:20 MKIV fmt: 2012.8.17 int: english/english). Minimal example: \starttext %works: \framed[framecorner=rectangular, bottomframe=off, rightframe=off]{happy ConTeXting!} %bottomline and rightline should not be visible, but are: \framed[framecorner=round, bottomframe=off, rightframe=off]{happy ConTeXting!} %complete frame is missing, but should not be (according to the Wiki): \framed[corner=16]{happy ConTeXting!} \stoptext best regards Bernhard

Added licensing information to PDF
by Tobias Mueller 17 Aug '12

17 Aug '12

Hi :-) I am trying to switch from LaTeX to ConTeXt and I'd like to add licensing information to the generated PDF, just like what the "hyperxmp" package would do for LaTeX. Something like this: \setupinteraction[ title={My Title}, author={Tobias Mueller}, keyword={foo bar baz}, pdfcopyright={This work is licensed to the public under the Creative Commons Attribution-Non-Commercial-Share Alike 3.0 Germany License.}, pdflicenseurl={http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/de/} ] \starttext Hello, World! \stoptext Thanks!

OT: TextMate2 has been opensourced (and comes with MacPorts now)
by Mojca Miklavec 17 Aug '12

17 Aug '12

One of my favourite Mac editors (aka: dukenukemforevermaceditor) has recently been opensourced and can be installed via MacPorts (but also bought in the store to support developer). It's still in alpha, but ... it's there. Mojca PS: ConTeXt support by Patrick exists (it never became part of official distribution though, but maybe we could request that).

Still looking for a pointer to the latest revision of "Context Reference Manual" even if incomplete. Or is there a separate MKIV manual? -- John Culleton Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html Police Procedural and Expose: "Death Wore Black" "Create Book Covers with Scribus" http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html

linenotes space for compress
by Pablo Rodríguez 15 Aug '12

15 Aug '12

Hi there, I have tried to add the compress option for linenotes to a commented edition that I'm trying to typeset (http://geoffreysteadman.com/) Sample is attached. And the relevant code for both apparatuses are: \definenote[dict] \setupnote[dict][n=2,rule=off, split=strict, inbetween=\hskip1.5em] \setupnotation[dict][number=no] \definelinenote[contxt] \setupnote[contxt][rule=off, paragraph=yes, split=strict, inbetween=\hskip1.5em] \setupnotation[contxt][numbercommand=,alternative=serried,distance=1em,compress=yes,compressseparator=] There is a problem (shown in the second apparatus from pages 1-3): compression space is also shown at line start with no previous text on that line. I'm afraid this is a bug. There is another issue with the blank space between compressed notes. They have more space than normal notes. This can be observed comparing the first compressed notes and the first numbered ones. I guess compressed notes have both spaces from numbered notes (the space before and the space after the number [inbetween option from setupnote and distance option from setupnotation]). I think there should be less space for compressed notes than for numbered notes. I think Idris and Thomas might give some insight into this issue. My suggestion would be to reduce the compressed space to the space before the number (inbetween option from setupnotes) or to enable a compressspace option in setupnotation (which would make sense mainly when compressseparator were disabled). There is another issue on pages 2 and 3: the separation between body and the dict linenotes is almost non-existent. I'm afraid this may be bug. BTW, I would like to put the contxt linenote numbers in old style. \setff{oldn} would be the command, but \setupnotation[contxt][numbercommand=\setff{oldn}] doesn't work. How can I get this? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
