sorting footnotes alphabetically
by Pablo Rodríguez 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

Hi there, I read in strc-not.mkvi that footnotes can be treated as lists. And the reference manual deals in section 12.3 with sorting lists. My basic sample is the following: \definenote[dict] \setupnotation[dict][number=no] \starttext This is my dictionary\dict{dictionary: vocabulario} command\dict{command: orden} for a complex\dict{complex: complejo} text\dict{text: texto}. \stoptext What I'm trying to achieve is that the \dict footnotes are sorted alphabetically. Adding the code from sorted lists, I get the following: \definesorting[meaning][meanings] \setupsorting[meaning][criterium=all] \definenote[dict] \setupnote[dict][number=no,command=\placelistofmeanings] \setupnotation[dict][number=no,command=\meaning] \starttext This is my dictionary\dict{dictionary: vocabulario} command\dict{command: orden} for a complex\dict{complex: complejo} text\dict{text: texto}. \stoptext It compiles fine, but the footnotes aren't alphabetically sorted. Is there any way to achieve this? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

footnotes
by Thomas A. Schmitz 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

hi all, would a kind soul please enlighten me about the new footnote commands? I can't find a way to achieve what I was able to achieve in older versions. The following code is on the wiki. It is supposed to give us the footnote marker aligned with the text area, then some blank space, then the footnote text: \definepapersize[wiki][width=8cm,height=8cm] \setuppapersize[wiki][wiki] \starttext \showframe \setupnote[footnote][margindistance=0em,command=\myfootnotecommand] \setupnotation[footnote][location=left,hang=1] \def\myfootnotecommand#1{\hbox to 1.5em{#1.}} test \footnote{test} \stoptext It doesn't work with the current beta, and I' completely lost about \setupnote[footnote] \setupnotation[footnote] \setupfootnotes What is doing what now? Thanks! Thomas

setupinterlinespace top and height relations
by Eidenbenz Michael 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

hi all, As a grid system fetishist, I would like to align the top of my first line with the top of the layout frame. Using try and error (still a context newbie) I managed this by "\setupinterlinespace [height=.5, top=.7]". this seems strange to me, because i was expecting that the argument top is the only one that controls \topskip. Is there a graphic that shows the relation between the arguments of setupinterlinespace? best michael \setupbodyfont [palatino, 10pt] \setupinterlinespace [height=.5, top=.7] \showframe \starttext \beginofshapebox \input zapf \endofshapebox \reshapebox{\hbox{\red\ruledhbox{\black\box\shapebox}}} \flushshapebox \stoptext

Figures alignment on grid
by Honza Hejzl 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

Hello ConTeXists, My questions are still without any response. I am not sure why, maybe they are not clearly explained. I have found two problems about figures: 1) It is impossible to achieve proper text wrapping around figure when the GRID is ON. I have tried more suggestions (see my source). 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.

\setuppagenumber
by Alan Bowen 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

I have a product file \startproduct prd_Aestimatio_vol-09 %prelims \setuppagenumber[numberconversion=romannumerals] \setuppagenumber[number=1] \setupfootnotes[conversion=numbers] \component c_A \component c_B \component c_C ... %text \setuppagenumber[numberconversion=numbers] \setuppagenumber[number=1] \resetnumber[footnote] \component c_2012-01_Author1.tex ... \stopproduct It compiled nicely before; but now, with the latest beta (2012.03.30 16:16), the page number of the Author1 file is 18 and not 1. The switch from roman to arabic numerals is OK. Has the been some refinement of the command? Alan

\em after font fallbacks
by S Barmeier 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

My main font is Japanese and I'm falling back on a different font for Latin characters. The \it switch works fine, but \em renders the Japanese font (e.g. page numbers in the index). Is there a way to have \em use the italic (of the fallback font)? Thanks, Severin

Re: [NTG-context] Page numbering in latest beta

Last update before was this morning around 10 a.m. CEST. >>> Any ideas or suggestions? The old numbering code had a side effect. Every time one changes settings the state of the counters needs to be synchronized and in fact a reset happened. Now, normally this is no big deal, as one sets up things at the beginning of a document. However, when mid document one wants to change the style, this reset becomes annoying. (The linenote bug reported a few days ago was a side effect of this.) So, now we don't reset any longer unless the 'start' key's value differs. As a consequence one needs to be explicit in some cases, like yours. By default, we number per text (we could change that if needed) but in the past the \setupuserpagenumber triggers a synchronization of the counter and therefore reset the number, so that obscured the fact. Now, you just need to set the 'way': \starttext \setupuserpagenumber[way=byblock] % can be default .... yes/no? \setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided, partnumber=no, location=, style={\ss\bold}] \setupheadertexts [section][pagenumber][pagenumber][chapter] \setupheader [before={\ss\switchtobodyfont[10pt]}] \startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart] \setupuserpagenumber[numberconversion=romannumerals] \stopsectionblockenvironment \startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart] \setuppagenumber[number=1] \stopsectionblockenvironment \startsectionblockenvironment[backpart] \setupuserpagenumber[numberconversion=numbers] \stopsectionblockenvironment \startsectionblockenvironment[appendix] \setupuserpagenumber[numberconversion=numbers] \stopsectionblockenvironment \startfrontmatter test \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter test \stopbodymatter \startappendices test \stopappendices \startbackmatter test \stopbackmatter \stoptext ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Multiple font fallbacks
by S Barmeier 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

I tried \definefontfallback[fallback1] \definefontfallback[fallback2] and then \definefontsynonym[][][fallbacks={fallback1,fallback2}] and failed. What is the correct syntax? Thank you, Severin
