Dear All, is there a replacement of "hdotsfor" from LaTeX to fill several cells in a matrix row with one long series of dots? Sincerely, Michail

Integration limits with Cambria Math
by Michail Vidiassov 17 Aug '09

17 Aug '09

Dear All, if I process the following with "ConTeXt ver: 2009.08.14 10:48 MKIV/LuaTeX, Version beta-0.42.0-2009071723" I get too much space between the integral sign and limits of integration. Sum limits are positioned OK. Without "cambria" lines integral is also fine. --------------- \usetypescript[cambria] \setupbodyfont[cambria] \starttext Inline $ \sum_{x=a}^{b}{f(x)g(x)}=\int_{a}^{b}{f(x)g(x)dx} $. \startformula \sum_{x=a}^{b}{f(x)g(x)}=\int_{a}^{b}{f(x)g(x)dx}. \stopformula \stoptext -------------- Is it a bug? Are there fixes/workarounds? Sincerely, Michail

Hello all, In the example below, I mean for a gray box with rounded corners to be placed behind \startC ... \stopC blocks. This example compiles properly on Linux with the latest ConTeXt beta and LuaTeX synced from the minimals just minutes ago.

Hi, Just a question: what's the equivalent of \overbar in math mode. \underbar works in math mode, but \overbar does not. Thanks a lot, Xan.

Order of results of \placepbulications
by Gerben Wierda 16 Aug '09

16 Aug '09

Whatever I do, I cannot get another order than some default ordering (order in which they are used in the main document) with \placepublications. ConTeXt wiki is no help nor is Google. So here is the question: how can I get my references list in order of author name or in order of year? Thanks, G

[OT] New emacs 23.1
by luigi scarso 16 Aug '09

16 Aug '09

It seems that new emacs 23.1 allows viewing of pdf, cfr. http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/NEWS.23.1 """ ** DocView mode allows viewing of PDF, PostScript and DVI documents. One can also search for a regular expression in the document. For details, see the commentary in doc-view.el. PDF and DVI files are now opened in Doc View mode by default. In Postcript mode, C-c C-c launches Doc View minor mode for viewing the postscript file. """ I believe that each page of pdf is converted in png, so maybe there is no refresh . -- luigi -- luigi
