Bibliography: Any styles including URL?
by Paul Menzel 11 Dec '11

11 Dec '11

Dear ConTeXt folks, type setting my thesis with ConTeXt I still use BibTeX to manage my references. Since a lot of references are available online I want to include the URL if they are available. I read the ConTeXt publication module documentation [1] and as far as I can see, there are some predefined layouts included in ConTeXt but none of them seem to include the URL when passed. The Bibliography documentation [1] also mentions that setting this up is tedious. So I am hoping I can profit from someone else’s work and use it. Could someone share such a style please for a mathematical thesis in German? That would be much appreciated. Thanks, Paul [1] http://dl.contextgarden.net/modules/bibmod-doc/doc/context/bib/bibmod-doc.p…

Bibliography: How to get `\completepublications` to use different title?
by Paul Menzel 10 Dec '11

10 Dec '11

Dear ConTeXt folks, reading the Wiki page [1] and the documentation [2] I could not find a way to change the default used `\chapter` [3] to `\subject` which I need, because the references have to be set without a number and my “highest” level is `\section` otherwise. Is there something similar to `\setupheadtext[en][pubs=References]` for other settings? I do not know how the publication-enviroment(?) is called. \setupbibtex[database=sample, sort=author] \setuppublications[alternative=apa, criterium=all] % Show reference numbers in the generated list. \starttext \section{Example} As \cite[hh2010b] already indicated, bibtex is a \LaTeX-centric program. \CONTEXT\ \contextmark\ \contextversion \completepublications \stoptext Thanks, Paul [1] http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bibliography [2] http://dl.contextgarden.net/modules/bibmod-doc/doc/context/bib/bibmod-doc.p… [3] http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Titles

Bibliography: Setting `alternative=` without `criterium=all` displays nothing (ConTeXt: 2011.11.25)
by Paul Menzel 10 Dec '11

10 Dec '11

Dear ConTeXt folks, using ConTeXt ver: 2011.11.25 21:29 MKIV fmt: 2011.11.25 int: english/english and the following minimal example (attached too) \setupbibtex[database=sample, sort=author] \setuppublications[alternative=ada] % Show reference numbers in the generated list. \starttext As \cite[hh2010b] already indicated, bibtex is a \LaTeX-centric program. \CONTEXT\ \contextmark\ \contextversion \completepublications \stoptext the references are not displayed. Not specifying `alternative` or adding `criterium=all` (`cite` does not work either) displays the references again. Could someone please confirm this with a recent ConTeXt version? Thanks, Paul

bibliography: current status, Wiki page Bibliography, [[error 2]] and bibltx
by Paul Menzel 10 Dec '11

10 Dec '11

Dear ConTeXt folks, I am trying to use the module bib, but I only get [[error 2]] displayed. I am following the Wiki page Bibliography [1], which suggests the following example (adapted by me). \usemodule[bib] \usemodule[bibltx] \setupbibtex[database=sample] \setuppublications[numbering=yes] % Show reference numbers in the generated list. \starttext As \cite[hh2010b] already indicated, bibtex is a \LaTeX-centric program. \completepublications \stoptext I copied the file `sample.bib` @STRING{hh = {Hans Hagen}} @ELECTRONIC{hh2010, author = hh, year = {2010}, title = {Metafun. \CONTEXT\ mkiv}, url = {http://www.pragma-ade.nl/general/manuals/metafun-s.pdf}, } @ARTICLE{hh2010a, author = hh, title = {The Font Name Mess}, journal = {MAPS}, year = {2010}, volume = {40}, pages = {2-8}, keywords = {context}, } @ARTICLE{hh2010b, author = hh, title = {Grouping in Hybrid Environments}, journal = {MAPS}, year = {2010}, volume = {40}, pages = {67-71}, keywords = {context}, } @BOOK{Eijkhout1991, title = {\TeX\ by Topic. A \TeX nician's Reference}, publisher = {Addison-Wesley}, year = {1991}, author = {Victor Eijkhout}, address = {London}, keywords = {general}, } from the bib module to the directory. Unfortunately I only get »[[error 2]]« displayed. Please find all files attached. Regarding `bibltx` the bib manual does also contain it [2][3]. Searching the Wiki for it, it says that it was dropped in version 2006.04.06 [4]. Thanks, Paul [1] http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bibliography [2] http://modules.contextgarden.net/bibman [3] http://dl.contextgarden.net/modules/bibmod-doc/doc/context/bib/ [4] http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Context_2006.04.06

Bug with caption
by Aditya Mahajan 10 Dec '11

10 Dec '11

Hi, If I use \setupcaption[number=no] and include a float with no caption, then all subsequent floats do not have a caption! Here is an example (using 2011.11.29) \setupcaption[number=no] \startbuffer \startnotmode[bugfix] \startplacefigure[location=here] Figure with no caption \stopplacefigure \stopnotmode \startplacefigure[location=here, title={Test}] Still no caption! \stopplacefigure \stopbuffer \starttext %% The float is shown with a caption here \enablemode[bugfix] \getbuffer %% The second float does not have a caption now. \disablemode[bugfix] \getbuffer \stoptext Aditya

Export (table cell alignment)
by Andreas Harder 10 Dec '11

10 Dec '11

Hi Hans, I’ve stumbled upon another export problem, concerning (natural) tables. The first table exports fine but in the second table the first column is ignored. \startbuffer[css] document { display: block } table { display: table ; width: 100% } tablerow { display: table-row } tablecell { display: table-cell ; border-style: solid ; padding: 1ex } tablecell[align="flushright"] { display: table-cell ; text-align: right } tablecell[align="flushleft"] { display: table-cell ; text-align: left } tablecell[align="middle"] { display: table-cell ; text-align: center } \stopbuffer \savebuffer[css] \setupbackend[export=yes,xhtml=yes,css={\jobname-css.tmp}] \starttext \startbuffer \bTR\bTD flush right \eTD\bTD ~~~~~ ~~~~ \eTD\bTD ~~~~~~ \eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD ~~~~~ ~~~~~ \eTD\bTD flush left \eTD\bTD ~~~~~~ \eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD ~~~~~ ~~~~~ \eTD\bTD ~~~~~ ~~~~ \eTD\bTD middle \eTD\eTR \stopbuffer \bTABLE[width=broad] \getbuffer \eTABLE % OK \bTABLE[width=broad] \setupTABLE [c] [1] [align=flushright] \setupTABLE [c] [2] [align=flushleft] \setupTABLE [c] [3] [align=middle] \getbuffer % not OK! \eTABLE \stoptext Best wishes Andreas

Footnotes break out of columnset (current beta)
by Peter Park Nelson 09 Dec '11

09 Dec '11

Hello, In TeXLive 2011, the following works correctly (footnotes in column) -- although the footnote rule does not appear, as I have noted in another post. In the current beta (29 nov 2011), the footnotes span the whole page and are run over by the body text columns. The footnote rule also continues to be absent. (The actual format I'm using has more formatting options but this is minimal). %%------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------%% \definecolumnset[body][n=2,balancing=yes] \setupnote[footnote] [location=columns] \setupnotedefinition[footnote] [location=left] \starttext \startcolumnset[body] \definecolumnset[body][n=2,balancing=yes] \def\myfootnotecommand#1{\hbox to 1.5em{#1}}% space for footnote number. \setupnote[footnote] [location=columns, way=bytext, command=\myfootnotecommand, rule=on] \setupnotedefinition[footnote] [location=left] \starttext \startcolumnset[body] Some text\footnote{Cluster, aggregate, outline, summarize, itemize, review, dip into, flip through, browse, glance into, leaf through, skim, refine, enumerate, glean, synopsize, winnow the wheat from the chaff and separate the sheep from the goats.} \dorecurse{5}{\input tufte \par} \stopcolumnset \stoptext \dorecurse{5}{\input tufte \par} \stopcolumnset \stoptext %%------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------%% -- Peter Park Nelson peter.park.nelson(a)gmail.com
