Referring to items
by Kip Warner 10 Mar '12

10 Mar '12

Hey list, I am following the instructions here but they do not seem to be working: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Enumerations#Referring_to_items I have an item block typeset with the following: \startitemize[R,2*broad][start=11] \setupitemize[left=(, right=)] \item[first_item] another item \item another item \item[last_item] another item \stopitemize I attempt to reference the first item with the following: \in{item}[first_item] But all I see in the final PDF are two ?? characters where I expected the reference. -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com

glyph width issues with \setscript[hanzi]
by S Barmeier 10 Mar '12

10 Mar '12

Not quite sure what causes this problem, but for particular text widths in combination with \setscript[hanzi], the glyph width gets thrown off. \setuplayout[width=110mm,height=200mm] \usemodule[simplefonts] \setscript[hanzi] \setcjkmainfont[IPAexMincho] \starttext ?? \input tufte \stoptext The question marks are too tight (almost on top of each other). This also affects parentheses ( ) and other punctuation , . but I haven't been able to reproduce those in a minimal example. The question marks above should illustrate the problem, though. Severin

More CJK fall-back fonts
by S Barmeier 10 Mar '12

10 Mar '12

At the moment I have \setcjkmainfont to a Japanese font. How do I specify more fall-back fonts, e.g. for Korean script. Also I may need to use a different font for IPA (phonetic characters). Is there a way of specifying a fall-back font for a particular range of Unicode characters? Thank you. Severin

Getting a Header Line to Start from Left Margin
by Emmanuel Asante 09 Mar '12

09 Mar '12

Hi All, I have a chapter heading text starting in the left margin and a hairline below my header texts spanning the full width of the header. Since the chapter begins in the left margin, there is no line on top of the chapter heading text in the margin. How can I get the line to also start in the margin where the chapter heading text begins? Thanks Emmanuel

CJK hyphenation/line breaking
by S Barmeier 09 Mar '12

09 Mar '12

Korean has spaces, so I guess I am only asking for CJ, but I was wondering if it is possible to enable line breaking, i.e. cheap hyphenation for CJ(K). I can only speak with certainty for Japanese, but at least here the rules are quite simple. There is no kerning for Japanese characters, so when the line is full it spaces all characters evenly (preferably as close together as the font allows) and dumps everything else to the next line, no matter if it is in the middle of a word (a concept not quite as well defined as in languages with spaces anyway). I can do this by hand if absolutely necessary, by inserting fake spaces "\ \!", but this gets quite tedious, and it seems line breaking for CJ(K) would be nice to have. I remember it working about a year and a half ago(?)... Severin

\notin not working
by "Stefan Müller" 09 Mar '12

09 Mar '12

Dear list, with one of the last versions (I'm currently using ConTeXt standalone 2012003005 19:49 MkIV) \notin is not working anymore. See \starttext $a \notin b \not\in c$ \stoptext It seems that \notin refers to \not. Is this intended behavior or a bug? Best regards, Stefan -- NEU: FreePhone 3-fach-Flat mit kostenlosem Smartphone!

At the moment, the baseline of the first line of the margin note aligns with the baseline of the main text line. Even in the general case, I think it would look better to have the top aligned. In the margin ruby, this presents a slight problem as a second ruby will now look as though it belongs to the next line. Is there a way to align the top of the lines, or is there a hack that just shifts a margin note by a few pts? (There is a "low" flag, but no high flag, I think...) Thank you. Severin

I'm just thinking of annotating one or two words per line, which in an appropriately small font size could just be stacked at the end of the line in order of occurrence. Problems would only arise if one line contained 3 or more words to be annotated, and the next line also contained one... Would this be possible to implement? Would this just be a \defineinright?

confirmed bug with \setuplist[alternative=d, margin=2em]
by Pablo Rodríguez 08 Mar '12

08 Mar '12

Hello Hans, the following code shows a bug with latest beta (first item on content list is indented, but the second isn't): \setuplist[chapter][alternative=d,margin=2em] \starttext \completecontent \part{Part} \chapter{Chapter} a \part{Part} \chapter{Chapter} b \stoptext Wolfgang kindly suggested this fix (that works also with latest beta): strc-lst.mkvi: \def\strc_lists_place_indeed#tag#list#settings% {\begingroup \edef\currentlist{#tag}% \setupcurrentlist[#settings]% \the\everystructurelist % \doif{\listparameter\c!coupling}\v!on{\startlistreferences{#tag}}% \doplacestructurelist % maybe inline {#list}% {\listparameter\c!criterium}% {\listparameter\c!number}% {\listparameter\c!extras}% {\listparameter\c!order}% % \stoplistreferences + \par \endgroup \strc_lists_set_mode} I wonder whether it could be included in latest beta. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
