Problem with metapost textbackgrounds on Windows
by Kevin D. Robbins 17 Aug '09

17 Aug '09

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. On Windows, also updated from minimals this morning, I get the following error and no text background: mplib : initializing instance 'metafun' using format 'metafun' mplib : loading 'metafun.mp' from 'C:/context/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-c ache/context/2fea56f92e5267d7cc9662e4d5f52e1e/formats/cont-en-metafun.mem' !

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.

Round-corner textbox with shadow

Shadows on round-corner textboxes are producing square-corner shaded boxes with square-corner shadows.

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

How to move an inframed block?
by rene hassel 15 Aug '09

15 Aug '09

Hello Everybody, does somebody know how to move an inframed text, or framed text, RELATIVE to another framed text ( or inframed text). Minimal example: ### begin example: \setupcolors[state=start] \starttext \framed{\inframed{Hello} Everybody} \stoptext ### end example. How to move "\inframed{Hello}" relative to the framed text "\framed{ Everybody}"? Idea is to have a framed text with a head like "Example", "Definition" or "Theorem", just as the "Zapf-examples" in the MetaFun manual on page 132 and further. But I want a solution "without" the use of MetaFun. Can I put the text "Hello" in a frame on the boundary of the frame "\framed{ Everybody}"? If so, I'm interested how the backgrounds or overlays of the different frames react. I'm intersted in an easy solution, best regards, Rene' van Hassel
