hbadness crippled?
by Meer, H. van der 18 Mar '12

18 Mar '12

Setting the distance parameter for item list to something greater than zero: \setupitemgroup[itemize][each][joinedup,packed][distance=3pt] generates in item lists overfull boxes: Overfull \hbox (3.0pt too wide). (1) At the time I teached programming we always learned students "Silence the compiler". Allthough this message does no harm (only annoying me), I wonder why is it appearing? Setting distance seems quite normal. The extra space is exactly the added distance (confirmed by varying its size.) (2) TeX used to keep silent on these messages when one set \hbadness=10000. But that does not work for me. Not even putting it right in front of \startitem content\stopitem, makes the warning go away. Is there a solution? Hans van der Meer

walking xmltree?
by Meer, H. van der 18 Mar '12

18 Mar '12

Is there a single macro/setup that walks the xml-tree, visiting each node? Either in preorder, inorder or postorder? Thus instead of: \xmlfilter{#1}{./command(xml:thecommand)} \xmlfilter{#1}{./*/command(xml:thecommand)} \xmlfilter{#1}{./*/*/command(xml:thecommand)} \xmlfilter{#1}{./*/*/command(xml:thecommand)} \xmlfilter{#1}{./*/*/*/command(xml:thecommand)} etc. doing this exhaustively with a single \xmlfiltertree{#1}{./command(xml:thecommand)} Hans van der Meer

is there a reason not to fix this bug?
by Pablo Rodríguez 18 Mar '12

18 Mar '12

Dear community, Wolfgang kindly suggested this fix (that works also with beta from today): 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} to fix the following bug with 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 I'm probably missing something, but this was reported two betas ago and I reported this again on the previous beta. I don't know whether this bug might not be fixed due to other reasons or it was simply forgotten. Many thanks for your awesome work, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

\startxmlsetups: extra parameters?
by Meer, H. van der 18 Mar '12

18 Mar '12

The \startxmlsetups definition has under #1 the current xml node available. Is it possible to add one or more parameters? Such that for example \xmlcommand{node}{lpath}{command {#1}{#2}…? } can be called with extra parameters? Hans van der Meer

In placing the heads and subheads of indices, \index defaults to Head locator Head subhead locator I need to get the subhead without repeating the Head, as in Head locator subhead locator How can I do this? Is there some documentation on this that I can read? Alan

bug in linenote number=no?
by Pablo Rodríguez 18 Mar '12

18 Mar '12

Hi there, I guess I have found a bug in the latest beta with "number=no" for linenotes. \setupnotation[footnote][location=columns,number=no] \definelinenote[dict] \setupnotation[dict][number=no] \starttext \dorecurse{10}{a\footnote{b}\dict{c}} \stoptext BTW, is there a way to have footnotes (or linenotes) in two columns if the body has no columns? "location=columns" seems not to be what I'm looking for? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Thanks Wolfgang, these are very valuable tips for me for the future. I put them to special document for later use. Thanks again for the valuable advice.
