synctex and --result
by Yury G. Kudryashov 19 Jun '10

19 Jun '10

Hi! I try to use ConTeXt with synctex. I generate two versions of my paper, so I use --result option. Context renames the .pdf file, but not .synctex.gz, hence inverse search doesn't work. As a workaround, I renamed the "draft for me" version to the default output name.

XITS fonts
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 19 Jun '10

19 Jun '10

Thank you, Khaled, for the effort. State-of-the-art and out-of-the-box math font is the feature I miss ) A few questions to get me on track: 1) is xits typescript already present in minimals? If no, where to get it? 2) is it Times-compatible (I mean looks good with Times text) Rgrds, Vyatcheslav

Writing a Curriculum Vitae/Resume

Hullo, I'm planning to write a CV/Resumé in ConTeXt. So I would like to know if there's already a nice module for it e.g. like the EuroPass[1] CV which also has a LaTeX template[2]. Any pointers would be helpful :] Cheers, Matija -.-.- [1] https://europass.cedefop.europa.eu/ [2] http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/europecv/ -- gsm: +386 41 849 552 www: http://matija.suklje.name xmpp: matija.suklje(a)gabbler.org

Broken description in mkiv
by Otared Kavian 19 Jun '10

19 Jun '10

Hi Hans, It seems that in the latest beta, ConTeXt ver: 2010.06.18 11:26 MKIV the description environment is broken: the header does not change after the first invocation of the defined description: in the following minimal example the first invocation uses Lemma, and the second and third one remain with Lemma instead of Theorem or Corollary. However with mkii everything works fine. Thanks for your attention and best regards: OK %%%% bug-description.tex \definedescription[Proclaim][% headstyle={\tfa\bi}, style=normal, location=hanging, width=broad, grid={broad,high} ] \starttext \startProclaim{Lemma} This is a lemma. \stopProclaim \startProclaim{Theorem} This is a theorem. \stopProclaim \startProclaim{Corollary} This is a corollary. \stopProclaim \stoptext

Thanks for providing translations. ) I also wonder why "ru" is specified in your code. Maybe "ua" (uk) ? % Список літератури \setupheadtext [\s!ru] -- Best Regards, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky

metapost: shading and transparency
by Marco 19 Jun '10

19 Jun '10

Hi, while using shading in metapost I cannot get transparency work. The transparency is simply ignored and the result is the same colour as with no transparency specified. Here's an example that demonstrates the problem: \definecolor [a] [darkyellow] \definecolor [b] [r=1, g=1, b=1, a=1, t=0] \definecolor [c] [r=1, g=1, b=1, a=1, t=.5] \definecolor [bg] [r=.8, g=.8, b=1] % Define test background to see transparency (not) working \defineoverlay[bg][\uniqueMPgraphic{bg}] \startuniqueMPgraphic {bg} fill unitsquare xyscaled (\overlaywidth, \overlayheight) withcolor \MPcolor{bg}; picture pic; pic := nullpicture; addto pic contour fullcircle scaled .5mm withcolor .2white; for i=1 upto 52: for j=1 upto 73: addto currentpicture also pic shifted (4mm*i, 4mm*j); endfor; endfor; \stopuniqueMPgraphic \setupbackgrounds [page] [background=bg] \starttext \startMPcode path p[]; p1 := unitsquare xyscaled (4cm, 2cm); p2 := p1 yshifted -2.5cm; p3 := p2 yshifted -2.5cm; % Transparency does not work, background is white instead of full alpha linear_shade(p1,0,\MPcolor{a},\MPcolor{b}); % Setting 2nd colour to background colour works only with plain coloured % backgrounds not with patterns linear_shade(p2,0,\MPcolor{a},\MPcolor{bg}); % Transparency with simple »fill« works as expected fill p3 withcolor \MPcolor{c}; \stopMPcode \stoptext Thanks for any hints Marco
