\setupnotation[number=no] for linenotes doesn't work in latest beta
by Pablo Rodríguez 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

Using beta from yesterday, I have discovered that \setupnotation[number=no] works fine for footnotes, but it doesn't work for linenotes. The sample that shows the issue is the following: \setupnotation[footnote][location=columns,number=no] \definelinenote[dict] \setupnotation[dict][number=no] \starttext \dorecurse{10}{a\footnote{b}\dict{c}} \stoptext Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

\definepagebreak[header, footer] not working when changing matters
by Pablo Rodríguez 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

I have discovered that \definepagebreak[header,footer] doesn't right with chapters when changing from frontmatter to bodymatter (and similar divisions). Here you have a sample: \definepagebreak[firstpagebreak][yes,header,footer,right] \setuphead[chapter][page=firstpagebreak] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location={botton}] \starttext \startfrontmatter \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{front}} \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{body}} \stopbodymatter \startappendices \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{body}} \stopappendices \startbackmatter \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{body}} \stopbackmatter \stoptext Pages previous to chapters with no text should also lack header and footer, but in the example above this doesn't work when text divisions (such as front matter, body matter, appendices and back matter) change. I guess this might be a bug. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Font goodies color schemes by Unicode number
by Khaled Hosny 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

Hi all, Was exploring font goodies and color schemes and so far works great, very nice feature, thanks Hans. Now I've to small questions/feature requests: Can color schemes be defined using Unicode code points, e.g.: { 0x064E, 0x064F } instead of glyph names (e.g. I'd like to have a font independent goody to color Arabic combining marks and no glyph substitution is involved so Unicode code points should work for most fonts). Second question, can it be (ab)used to color a whole font with the same color (can be handy sometimes), e.g. using a special wildcard or something: { "*" }. Regards, Khaled

xits fots
by salah jubeh 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

Hello, I am trying to compile the example provided by khaled hosny https://github.com/khaledhosny/xits-math/blob/master/test-suite/arabic.tex. However this is what I get fonts > virtual math > unable to resolve name mapsfromchar fonts > fallback modern rm 12pt is loaded system > begin file arabic.tex at line 5 Missing character: There is no ف (U+0641) in font lmroman12-regular! I have the latest version of livtex. When I run mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern=xits xits xitsbolditalic xits-bolditalic.otf which is strange because the font xits-math is not listed I have noticed that xits is already installed with livtext, and I have followed the instruction in this page to 'http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Fonts_in_LuaTeX' install the fonts in and I have also installed the fonts in the home_directory/ .fonts I was able to use the xits math with lualatex and it worked fine. luaotfload | load font: font family='xitsmath', subfamily='regular' found: xits-math.otf Thanks in advance

simple graphics, Metafun vs. ConTeXt
by S Barmeier 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

I have leaved through the ConTeXt and MetaFun manuals on the search for examples of graphics resembling the attached file which I created in TikZ. I was wanting to switch to something more native to ConTeXt, but haven't quite found a way of realising it in ConTeXt or MetaFun. Maybe someone would be so kind as to point me to the right section in the manual. All I want is to define text boxes (of a fixed size) to fill them with a background colour and (centred, typeset) text. Do I need MetaFun for that, or should some table/framed text environment in ConTeXt be able to do that? Many thanks, Severin

This works with the November beta, but not the current: \setupfootnotes[way=bychapter, location=page, rule=off] \starttext \startchapter[title=One] Chapter\footnote{Note 1} with two\footnote{Note 2} footnotes. \stopchapter \startchapter[title=Two] Chapter\footnote{Should be Note 1} with two additional\footnote{should be Note 2} footnotes. \stopchapter \stoptext Bug, or has the syntax changed?

Referencing a Document within the same Project
by Malte Stien 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

Hi all, I am designing a document suite consisting of two dozen or so documents that are all interrelated. I was wondering whether there is a way that I can define a reference point for an entire document within a project and then refer to that from another document, like \document{global-definitions-document} % This is fictitious syntax ...in one document and then refer to that in another document: For global definitions, please see \about{global-definitions-document}. ...or something along those lines. Regards, Malte.

getting xml instead of context
by Meer, H. van der 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

In the processing of incoming xml-data this is typeset as is, not as processed text. Thus for example: with \xmlflush{#1} the incoming data: "<text>its_content</text>" is not typeset as: "its_content", but as: <text>its_content</text>. Substitution of \xmlcontext{#1}{.} for \xmlflush{#1} makes everything go away. Allthough my program is a bit too long to present here, a minimal example is the application of \xmlstripped{#1}{.} instead of \xmlflush{#1}; it has the same result. The output below shows how things looks and clarifies the issue; see the second answer of the multiple choice. How to process these data to neatly typeset material? Hans van der Meer
