Unicode character for "\,"?
by pmlists＠free.fr 17 Jan '12

17 Jan '12

Hello, What Unicode character can replace "\,"? "NARROW NO-BREAK SPACE" is too small: \starttext \|\,\| \type{\,}\par \| \| THIN SPACE (U+2009) (why smaller than \type{\,}?)\par \| \| NARROW NO-BREAK SPACE (U+202F) (why almost nothing?)\par \|\| nothing\par \|~\| \type{~}\par \| \| NO-BREAK SPACE (U+00A0) (seems ok to me) \stoptext TIA for any hints! -- Peter

Pagebreak in a list of figures
by Tomas Hala 16 Jan '12

16 Jan '12

Hello, I tried (unsuccessfully) to insert a page break on the concrete position in a list of figures. Minimal example: \starttext \dorecurse{30}{\placefigure{Nic}{\externalfigure[any-figure.jpg]}} \completelistoffigures[pageboundaries={5,10,13}] \completelistoffigures[5,10,13] \stoptext I did not find any other solution (google, garden), only these two ideas, the second one only in relation to the general content. Versions: In TeXlive 2010 the first solution works properly. In TeXlive 2011 and ConTeXt from the garden (ver: 2011.05.18 18:04 MKIV fmt: 2011.10.31) do not work neither the first, nor the second. What is the proper way now? Tomas Hala

Bug? Counters inherit chapter number
by Felix Ingram 16 Jan '12

16 Jan '12

Hi all, This works as expected* (empty section title with "5 6 7 8" on the next line \definenumber[examplecounter] \setnumber[examplecounter]{5} \starttext \startsection \getnumber[examplecounter] \incrementnumber[examplecounter] \getnumber[examplecounter] \incrementnumber[examplecounter] \getnumber[examplecounter] \incrementnumber[examplecounter] \getnumber[examplecounter] \incrementnumber[examplecounter] \stopsection \stoptext This does not: \definenumber[examplecounter] \setnumber[examplecounter]{5} \starttext \startchapter \getnumber[examplecounter] \incrementnumber[examplecounter] \getnumber[examplecounter] \incrementnumber[examplecounter] \getnumber[examplecounter] \incrementnumber[examplecounter] \getnumber[examplecounter] \incrementnumber[examplecounter] \stopchapter \stoptext The second example has an empty chapter heading followed by "1. 1.1 1.2 1.3". This is on version: 2011.11.29. Apologies if this is has been addressed - I'm holding off updating until I've worked out some more features in my doc. Felix * As expected by me

font-otn.lua:1809: attempt to index local 'chainlookup' (a nil value)
by Simo Ojala 16 Jan '12

16 Jan '12

Hi, I am just trying to quickly report this without joining mailing list, hopefully it works. I am getting strange error reports with hebrew words and ConTeXt IV. Error is following: "error: /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/font-otn.lua:1809: attempt to index local 'chainlookup' (a nil value)". My suspicion is that this could be some regression bug introduced to ConTeXt IV. This is because I could not think anything I have done wrong and my testing file is very simple. I also have earlier standalone ConTeXt IV that does not give this error. Exact details can be found from tex/stackexhange where I initially started to ask around. I post this thing here only to make sure that this catches the attention of the right people. Question in tex/stackexchange: http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/41052/hebrew-words-causes-strange-er… Thank you, Simo Ojala

separate publication lists for different publication types
by Eidenbenz Michael 16 Jan '12

16 Jan '12

hi all, is it possible to have separate publication lists for different publication types? eg. one list for the book, booklet, inbooks, manuals and the other list for article, conference, periodicals? I tried to define two different bibliography style files for each list, where I defined \setuppublicationlayout just for the desired types, but this doesn't work. either it gives me a blank line for an undefined record type or it takes the definition from somewhere else. thanks, michael

Bug in symb-ini.mkiv?
by Otared Kavian 16 Jan '12

16 Jan '12

Hi Hans, With the latest beta (ConTeXt ver: 2012.01.12 11:03 MKIV), typesetting a document which used to be typeset without problems I encounter an error which points to some commands defined in symb-ini.mkiv. However I can switch back to ConTeXt ver: 2011.11.29 18:47 MKIV in order to teypeset my document. Since the document is long and the macros I use are soemwhat complex (and maybe not very well written…), I cannot send you a minimal example which shows the problem. In any case, I wanted to let you know about the issue. The error message says: <inserted text> } <to be read again> \endgroup \symb_place_retry ...name \symb_place_indeed {:#1} \else #1\fi \symb_place_normal_c ...lace_retry \currentsymbol \fi \symb_place_normal_b ...else \symb_place_normal_c \fi <to be read again> \else and stops when an \item is encountered. Best regards: OK
