Re: [NTG-context] One interline space setup trouble

Hi, Wolfgang, Thank you for the visual hint. The space around 2th paragraph is equal, I agree with you. However, why there is only a half of interline space BELOW 1st paragraph, while 3st paragraph has full space ABOVE it? That is the root cause of my problem. \setupinterlinespace[line=28pt] \definedelimitedtext [example] [spacebefore=small, %spacebefore=medium, %spaceafter=small, style=\tfx, before={\setupinterlinespace[line=12pt]}] \starttext\ruledvtop{\begstrut Most models we discussing here are specification of dynamic behaviour of SUI. This behaviour is described in terms of the interactions over time among some entities. The entities in question fall into two broad categories: {\em endogenous} (intrinsic to the SUI itself) and {\em exogenous} (belonging to a system's environment).\endstrut} \startexample \ruledvtop{\begstrut All processes that take place inside Earth (and other planets) are considered endogenous. These processes make the continents migrate, push the mountains up, trigger earthquakes and volcanism, and are driven by the warmth that is produced in the core of Earth. Exogenous processes are all taking place at the outside of the Earth. Weathering, erosion, transportation and sedimentation are the main exogenous processes.\endstrut} \stopexample \ruledvtop{\begstrut Constants and parameters serve as names for the values that do not change during a simulation run. In the case of a {\em constant}, the assigned value remains invariant over all experiments. Often it is a physical constant, like $g$ -- force of gravity. In the case of a {\em parameter}, there normally is an intent to explore the effect upon behaviour of a range of different values for the parameter.\endstrut} \stoptext Regards, Vyatcheslav

Hi, Sorry for my strive for perfection, but if I set new interline space in delimited text using 'before' key, the space BEFORE is affected by \setupinterlinespace, while the space AFTER does not. The result is a paragraph with visibly unbalanced surroundings. Is there a way to set the spaces equal without manual adjusting? Example: \setupinterlinespace[line=18pt] \definedelimitedtext [example] [spacebefore=small, style=\tfx, before={\setupinterlinespace[line=12pt]}] \starttext Most models we discussing here are specification of dynamic behaviour of SUI.

Hallo Wolfgang, > > Neither \setupwhitespace[halfline]nor > \setupcolumns[blank=halfline]is > > working. Grid is off by default, isn't it? > > > Set the whitespace after \startcolumns. This works, but shouldn't be the whitespace a global setting? I found an other ?solution? When BOTH \setupwhitespace[small] \setupcolumns[blank=halfline] is set then halfline is accepted. But halfline > small. I like context very much, but finding the right option is often a game of pure chance. Wolfgang

combination trickery - help needed
by Bernhard Rosensteiner 16 Feb '10

16 Feb '10

Hi, in the attachment is an example file which describes best what i want do. The method with \offset and \clip to place the figures where i want is really brutal force i think. Especially fiddling around with dimension to get the "right fit“ is tedious. Is there a better solution to do such a start/stopcombination? Floatplacing is also influenced by the offset command but i compensated this with *hang - nevertheless all in all i think no good solution. Please help. best regards Bernhard

I use the minimals and have some further questions: 1) Is there any way to use first-setup.sh to install these fonts? 2) The type1 dir is empty. Is that on purpose? Should one download the pfb files from ctan? 3) Will there be any support of the Fourier fonts? I have asked this before, sorry about that, but I'm kind of clueless about the present situation.

Formatting numbers in LuaTeX
by Andreas Harder 16 Feb '10

16 Feb '10

Hi all! I played a little bit with LuaTeX in ConTeXt and two questions have arisen. \usemodule[calcmath] \starttext \def\calculate#1{\calcmath{#1=\ctxlua{tex.print(#1)}}} \calculate{1+2} \par \calculate{3/2-1}\par % the output should be 0,5 \calculate{3*2}\par % \calculate{sqrt(2)} \calculate{2*π} % 2*\pi \stoptext 1) Is it possible to have a comma as decimal separator? 2) If you look at the above definition, it works fine with +, –, /, but not with *. Is it possible to expand my macro that it will also work with a multiplication or even with the last two examples? Thank you in advance Andreas

interlineskip problem (mkiv)
by Peter Rolf 15 Feb '10

Hi, I get unwanted interline skips when using a MP based background. The attached example works fine in mkii. In mkiv I only get the desired result, if I don't use the MP background. Best wishes, Peter
