\everyaftershipout isn't "called" for every pagebreak
by Andreas Schneider 18 Jan '10

18 Jan '10

Hi, I'm using \appendtoks...\to\everyaftershipout to reset a variable on every pagebreak. This doesn't work as I expect(ed) it, since it seems to only trigger after a paragraph. The following example shows the problem. On every new page, the first footnote should be "New", which is not the case here. What would be the way to go for me, to get the result I described? Thanks in advance, Andreas. The example: \define\test{\doifelse{\getvalue{testvar}}{page}{% \footnote{Repeat}% }{% \footnote{New}% \setvalue{testvar}{page}% }} \appendtoks \global\setvalue{testvar}{} \to\everyaftershipout \starttext \dorecurse{10}{\dorecurse{250}{text }\test} \dorecurse{10}{\dorecurse{250}{text }\test} \stoptext

itemize-margin->break joinedup
by Hans van der Meer 17 Jan '10

17 Jan '10

The joinedup parameter in \startitemize is meant to close the gap between the list and the preceding material. The margin parameter is for horizontal movement of the list, is I understand it. However, addition of a margin to the \startitemize disables the joinedup. Is this expected behaviour? Below is a minimal example showing the effect. Hans van der Meer \setupblank[small] \setupitemize[n,packed] \starttext \contextversion\ After \type{\startitemize[joinedup]} joinedup ok: \startitemize[joinedup] \item sub a \startitemize \item sub a1 \item sub a2 \stopitemize \item sub b \stopitemize \contextversion\ After type[joinedup,margin=2cm] joinedup ineffective: \startitemize[joinedup,margin=2cm] \item sub a \startitemize \item sub a1 \item sub a2 \stopitemize \item sub b \stopitemize \stoptext

Hi, On a new Snow Leopard machine, I ran ./first-setup.sh in ~/context. As instructed at the end of the ./first-setup.sh run, I then added /Users/pm/context/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin to my .zshenv, and % echo $PATH shows correct path when I source, logout, restart, etc. I ran: p% texexec example.tex MTXrun | kpse fallback with progname 'context' initialized in 0.001019 seconds I then tried p% luatex sample.tex This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.50.0-2009122423 \write18 enabled. kpathsea: Running mktexfmt luatex.fmt mktexfmt: No such file or directory I can't find the format file `luatex.fmt'! Any suggestions on what I should do? Also, first-setup.sh creates the dir ...tex/texmf-osx-64/bin, but, p% uname -m i386 Thank you very much for any help you can offer.

Hallo, this are the things which driving me nuts: Suppose I want to numerate my sections with uppercase characters. In texshow-web I found \setuphead[section-3][bodypartconversion=Characters] but this does not work. I deleted the 's' from Characters \setuphead[section-3][bodypartconversion=Character] but that is not working too. At the garden page 'titles' I found \setupsection[section-3][bodypartconversion=Character] that works, but it does not correspont to the syntaxdescription in texshow-web, which is \setupsection[...][...][...,...=...,...] [...] name [...] name conversion numbers characters Characters romannumerals Romannumerals previousnumber yes no The second parameter should be a 'name' and bodypartconversion is not a parameter at all. Looking at the description, my problem should be solved by \setupsection[section-3][][conversion=Characters] and this works. But the version \setupsection[section-3][conversion=Characters] works too. Why? And what is the difference to the first solution? So much open questions. So much lost time. Wolfgang, a little bit frustrated.

Page numbering and MkIV
by Vedran Miletić 14 Jan '10

14 Jan '10

This code: \enableregime[utf] \starttext \title{BLAH BLAH\\ BLAH} \setuppagenumbering[state=stop] \page \setuppagenumbering[state=start,location={footer,center},conversion=romannumerals,style={\bf}] \completecontent \page \setuppagenumbering[state=stop] \chapter[chapter:foo]{Foo Bar} \setuppagenumbering[state=start,location={footer,center},conversion=no,style={\ss\bf}] \section[sect:evocation]{EVOCATION} Lorem ipsum. \stoptext Produces what I expect with MkII (blank page, roman numbered page, arabic numbered page), but MkIV produces PDF with arabic numbering on every page. Any ideas? -- Vedran Miletić
