Problem With an Enumeration After a Forced Float
by Tad Ashlock 30 Jan '10

30 Jan '10

Hi All, Here's a corner case for you: place a figure with the 'force' option, followed by an enumeration with a background. Like this (also attached as tadtest1.tex): ============================================================ \defineenumeration[enum][before={\startbackground},after={\stopbackground}] \starttext \dorecurse{3}{\input knuth\par} \placefigure[force]{Moooooo}{\externalfigure[cow.pdf][width=.7\textwidth]} \startenum The contents of a test enumeration. \stopenum \stoptext ============================================================ The enumeration will start at the top of the next page (after the figure) even though there's plenty of room below the figure on the same page. If you take the background away from the enumeration (delete the 'before' and 'after' options), OR take the 'force' option off the \placefigure command, then the problem goes away. I suspect that this isn't the expected behavior. :-) Thanks, Tad

But if I add a second \startC ... \stopC section, then it breaks. For example, this code (also attached as tadtest0.tex): ============================================================ \enabletrackers[buffers.visualize] \starttext \definetyping[C] % [option=C] \setuptyping[C][escape=yes] \startC #include <stdio.h> int main(){ return 0; /BTEX{\em unreachedCode;}/ETEX } \stopC \startC printf("The second C segment doesn't work.\n"); \stopC \stoptext ============================================================ Produces this output: ============================================================ systems : begin file test.tex at line 3 !buffers : mapping 'c' visualizer onto 'typing' !buffers : setting escape range for visualizer 'C' to /BTEX -> /ETEX !

In the past I have used defs like \def\reg{\char174} Is there a more universal way to get these symbols? -- John Culleton "Create Book Covers with Scribus" Printable E-book 38 pages $5.95 http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html

context scite
by Milton R S 29 Jan '10

29 Jan '10

Hi Context users, I try to use Scite with Context in Ubuntu Linux, and followed the instructions in the ''Scite in Context'' manual. 1. Copied /usr/share/texmf/context/data/cont-*-scite.properties files to /usr/share/scite where scite's properties files reside. 2. From Options menu, I selected Open User Options File (that happens to be /home/milton/.SciTEUser.properties) and inserted the line import context in that file 2. Copied /usr/share/texmf/context/data/context.properties file to my home, that is, /home/milton since it is where the SciTEUser.properties file also resides (in Linux it is .SciTEUser.properties) Result: 1. I get the Tools menu. 2. I do not the autocompletion. This is the much needed one. Is there any properties that I have not set correctly? Regards ---Milton

Context bug - output is shifted about 0.5 cm left
by Quiark 29 Jan '10

29 Jan '10

Hello, I couldn't find any note of this problem on the internet, so I'm reporting it. In the latest ConTeXt, the output of any document is shifted somewhat to the left. To reproduce: create a document with a few paragraphs of text. To make the problem more visible, use \showlayout. On the right side of the page, there is about 0.5 cm gap. When the PDF is opened in Inkscape, we can see that the lines produced by \showlayout are outside the page on the left side. It happens on live.contextgarden.net as well as on my windows machine with the minimal context distribution. The problem does not occur in plain luatex. The problem happens with pdftex engine as well. I tried viewing the PDF in multiple viewers. As this is an important problem, I suspect you are already aware of it, but I couldn't find any notice about it. Roman Plášil

bib: no booktitle for @inbook
by Andreas Schneider 27 Jan '10

27 Jan '10

Hi, when I insert a citation of type @inbook, it only shows the "title", not however the "booktitle". I tried ams, num, apa and apa-de. Example entry: @inbook{Coles2007, address = {Berkeley, CA}, author = {Coles, Michael}, booktitle = {Pro T-SQL 2005 Programmer’s Guide}, doi = {10.1007/978-1-4302-0387-2}, isbn = {978-1-59059-794-1}, pages = {323--341}, publisher = {Apress}, title = {{SQL Metadata}}, year = {2007} } On a side-node: in bibl-apa-de.tex: \def\insertchap#1#2#3% {\insertchapter {#1\insertbibtype{}{\ }{chapter\ }}{#2}% {#3}} ^^^^^^^ ... should read "Kapitel". Best Regards, Andreas.

\at inherits from costum \definereferenceformat
by Bernhard Rosensteiner 27 Jan '10

27 Jan '10

Hello all, when i define a new reference with \definereferenceformat the \at command inherits the value from the left and right keys (see attachement). Is there a solution to prevent this or can i maybe define a costume reference format which outputs the pagenumber and not the sectionnumber? best regards Bernhard
