new lucida font
by Meer, H. van der 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

I just bought the new Lucida font from TUG and installed it in my local texmf under fonts/opentype/bh/lucidaot/ Then I did: mtxrun --generate mtxrun --script font --reload to be sure the new install will be picked up by ConTeXt mkiv. I think I did read somewhere that mkiv will prefer otf above pfb files, if these otfs are present. However, after running \setupbodyfont[lucida,10pt] the log shows the old pfb's used: </Users/hans/TeX/texmf/fonts/type1/yandy/lucida/lbr.pfb> instead of an otf? What could have happended? What am I doing wrong? By the way I do not see the lucida math fonts in the package. Are these missing? Hans van der Meer

Problem Nesting defineitemgroups
by Malte Stien 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

I have the following two definitions for bullet point lists... % Setup bullet point lists \defineitemgroup[blist][before={\blank[1ex]}] \setupitemgroup[blist][1][packed][symbol=1] \setupitemgroup[blist][2][packed][symbol=2] ... and numbered lists % Setup numbered lists \defineitemgroup[nlist][before={\blank[1ex]}] \setupitemgroup[nlist][1][packed][symbol=n, headstyle=bold] \setupitemgroup[nlist][2][packed][symbol=a, headstyle=bold] They generally seem to work well, but when I try to nest one within the other, like so \startnlist \item Foo \startblist \item Some bullet item 1, \item Some bullet item 2, \item Some bullet item 3. \item Assign an appropriate criticality. \stopblist \item Baz \startnlist ...I get unexpected behaviour as follows: 1. Foo a. Some bullet item 1, b. Some bullet item 2, c. Some bullet item 3. 2. Baz I was expecting this instead 1. Foo + Some bullet item 1, + Some bullet item 2, + Some bullet item 3. 2. Baz ...(where "+" denotes the round bullet point). Is this a defect or am I doing something wrong? Regards, Malte.

how can I use framewidth in calculations
by Thomas A. Schmitz 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

Hi all, maybe I'm overlooking something obvious, but...: when I have a figure, I can calculate its width dependent on the page width, and it will adapt: \starttext \externalfigure[cow][width=0.6\textwidth] \stoptext But is there a method for similar calculations inside a frame? Here's what I tried, but it doesn't give the expected result (the image is much smaller than expected): \starttext \framed[width=7cm]{\externalfigure[cow][width=\the\dimexpr0.9\framedparameter{width}\relax]} \stoptext Thanks for any pointers!

Formatting Indexed Words Within the Text
by Malte Stien 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

Hi all, Is it possible to format indexed words in a particular style within the text more or less automatically. For example, if I write There are some \index[ducks] in the zoo. ...I would like the term "ducks" to appear in small-capitals to indicate the that term can be found in the index. Ideally, I'd like to do that without explicit manual formatting. Is that possible? Thank you, Malte.

Re: [NTG-context] Formatting Indexed Words Within the Text
by Malte Stien 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

Hi, I got a few responses for this. Thank you to all of you. I ended up using the code below. Works a treat. And yes, apologies. The square brackets were a typo; of course they should have been curly. Thank you again. Malte.

As far as I can tell, \index only adds entries to the index register and not to the text.

Widgets getting check marks instead of colors when the next one is clicked.
by Mikael P. Sundqvist 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Dear list, 1) Look at the output of this simple document (attached as test.pdf). If I click the first one I get a green square as I want. But when I click the second one the first one loses its color and get a check mark instead (tested on linux and windows). Is there anything I can do to keep the green square when the red is clicked? %%% BEGINNING OF FILE \setupinteraction[state=start,color=darkblue] \setupfield[setup 3] [width=1.2ex, height=1.2ex, rulethickness=1pt, framecolor=darkblue,offset=overlay] \definesymbol [ryes] [{\framed[frame=off,width=2em,height=2em,background=color,backgroundcolor=darkgreen]{ }}] \definesymbol [rno] [] \definesymbol [wyes] [{\framed[frame=off,width=2em,height=2em,background=color,backgroundcolor=darkred]{ }}] \definesymbol [wno] [] \definefield [rcheckme][check] [setup 3] [ryes,rno] [rno] \definefield [wcheckme][check] [setup 3] [wyes,wno] [wno] \starttext \field[rcheckme] Germany is a country in Europe. \field[wcheckme] All germans are men. \goto{Reset}[ResetForm] \stoptext %%% END OF FILE 2) In the example file above I also use ResetForm to clear all the checks. Is there a way to get a button/link such that when I click it all squares are "checked" (in my case colored red or green)? Best regards, Mikael PS If this method is outdated and there is a better one, please do not hesitate to tell me.

References broken when using more than one component?
by Steffen Fritzsche 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Hi, I've got a deep hierarchy of components, while everything builds fine I have a problem using references. Have a look at the following sample files: reftest.tex: \setuphead[chapter][referenceprefix=+] \starttext \chapter[one]{Chapter One} \section[bla]{Blablabla} See \in{Section}[three:foobar] \chapter[two]{Chapter Two} \section[blubb]{BlubbBlubbBlubb} \subsection{BlubberBlubber} See \in{Section}[one:bla] \component refcomp \stoptext refcomp.tex: \startcomponent refcomp \chapter[three]{Chapter Three} \component refcompsec \stopcomponent refcompsec.tex: \section[foobar]{Foobar Section} See \in{Section}[two:blubb] for more details! \stopcomponent If I move the second component "refcompsec.tex" into the "refcomp.tex" component the reference in chapter one is found. If I translate it as shown using two components the reference in the first chapter is lost. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? Cheers, Steffen

Floating figures – text wrapping and captions alignment
by Honza Hejzl 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Hello ConTeXists, I wrote my questions maybe in a confusing way. It seems two things with floating figures (especially with placing pictures) are maybe broken. 1) It is impossible to achieve proper text wrapping around figure when the GRID is ON. I have tried more suggestions. 2) The second thing is there is no way how to change alignment in captions. \enableregime[utf] \mainlanguage[en] \setuppapersize[A5][A5] \definefloat[figure][figures] \setuplayout[grid=yes] \setupcaption[figure][% align=left, %align=right, style=\ss, distance=2pt,before={\noindent}] \showgrid \starttext \input tufte %\movesidefloat[x=10pt,y=-40pt] %\movesidefloat[3*line] %\hangsidefloat[3] \placefigure[left]{sdf}{\externalfigure[none][height=3cm]} \input tufte \stoptext Any help appreciated. Honza Hejzl
