Sorry but with your question only there is no way to understand what you mean, I texed now your example (please add next time \starttext ... \stoptext and load all required packages) and saw what you mean. The two pictures and the text in the middle column should align at the top of the table. Natural tables are better suited for this kind of table because you can use the 'align' key. \bTABLE [frame =off,align=middle,width=4.5cm,background=color,backgroundcolor=gray] \bTR \bTD[nx=3,foregroundstyle=\ssbf] Com s'identifica una funció mitjançant la seva representació gràfica? \eTD \eTR \bTR[topframe=on,bottomframe=on] \bTD <graph 1> \eTD \bTD <text> \eTD \bTD <graph 2> \eTD \eTR \eTABLE Wolfgang

A lot, Xan. PS: I CC context mailing list because I don't find this explanation nowhere. It could be useful for someone.

setupsynonym: 2 questions on width
by Michael Bynum 05 Mar '09

05 Mar '09

1.) I have a list of synonyms that I need to print in an aligned list. Is there a way to align the synonym definitions with the longest synonym entry (width=? option maybe)? Here is a small example where the entries do not align. \definesynonyms[nomenclature][nomenclatures][\infull] \setupsynonyms[nomenclature][criterium=all,width=broad] \nomenclature[a]{a}{This is the letter a} \nomenclature[b]{abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz}{This is the alphabet} \nomenclature[c]{c}{This is the letter c} \starttext \placelistofnomenclatures \stoptext 2.) Also, if the width in setupsynonyms is set to a value smaller than the length of the longest entry, the entry tries to wrap around, but it writes over top of the next entry. Obviously this is not desirable. Is there a way to have the next entry below the "wrapped" long entry instead of on the same line? An example of this issue. \definesynonyms[nomenclature][nomenclatures][\infull] \setupsynonyms[nomenclature][criterium=all] \nomenclature[a]{a}{This is the letter a} \nomenclature[b]{abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz}{This is the alphabet} \nomenclature[c]{c}{This is the letter c} \starttext \placelistofnomenclatures \stoptext Thanks, Mike

some minor Problems
by Lutz Haseloff 05 Mar '09

05 Mar '09

Hi Hans, hi all, First: in the last 2 Betas (today and yesterday) the parameter --interface for texexec seems not to work anymore. my log: >texmfstart texexec --interface=xp --autopdf --luatex ligtest.tex TeXExec | processing document 'ligtest.tex' TeXExec | no ctx file found TeXExec | tex processing method: false TeXExec | tex engine: luatex TeXExec | tex format: false TeXExec | runtime: 0.86 >Exit code: 0 context --make xp builds a format cont-xp without error messages. The format cont-en runs well with: texmfstart texexec --autopdf --luatex ligtest.tex Second: The command || like in knuth.tex seems not to work properly in mkiv. Even with enabled liga feature it builds two hyphens. Last: I can't enable fontfeatures for the "Vista-Fonts" for instance Cambria. They are simply ignored. They are OTF with TTF extensions, ist this the reason? Greetings Lutz ---------- Proud member of the NTG

Up the contents of table
by Xan 04 Mar '09

04 Mar '09

Hi, Is there any way of "upping" the contents of a table? I have this example: \startframedtext[background=screen,frame=off,width=broad] \startalignment[center] {\ssbf Com s'identifica una funció mitjançant la seva representació gràfica?} \stopalignment \placetable[here,none] [taula] { } { \starttable[|l|xw(4.5cm)p(4.5cm)|l] \HL \NC % Una relació que no és funció 1 \starttikzpicture[scale=0.8] \draw[very thin,color=gray] (-0.1,-1.1) grid (3.9,3.9); \draw[->] (-0.2,0) -- (4.2,0) node[right] {$x$}; \draw[->] (0,-1.2) -- (0,4.2) node[above] {$y$}; \path coordinate (start) at (0,4) coordinate (c1) at +(5,3) coordinate (c2) at +(5,1.75) coordinate (slut) at (2.7,.5) coordinate (top) at (4.2,2); \draw[color=red,important line] (start) .. controls (c1) and (c2) .. (slut); \stoptikzpicture \NC Si algun valor de $x$ li correspon més d'un valor de $y$, aleshores la gràfica no correspon a una funció. Sinó sí que correspon a una funció. \NC % Una relació que no és funció 1 \starttikzpicture[scale=0.8] \draw[very thin,color=gray] (-0.1,-1.1) grid (3.9,3.9); \draw[->] (-0.2,0) -- (4.2,0) node[right] {$x$}; \draw[->] (0,-1.2) -- (0,4.2) node[above] {$y$}; \path coordinate (start) at (0,4) coordinate (c1) at +(5,3) coordinate (c2) at +(5,1.75) coordinate (slut) at (2.7,.5) coordinate (top) at (4.2,2); \draw[color=red,important line] (start) .. controls (c1) and (c2) .. (slut); \stoptikzpicture \LR \HL \stoptable} \stopframedtext and the text is bottom the table. Thanks in advance, Xan. PS: Please, CCme.

extra offsets
by Hans Hagen 04 Mar '09

04 Mar '09

Hi, concerning the offsets in framed .. - we cannot use leftoffset etc as name because these are already used in mechanisms that build on top of framed and it would add quite some extra code (and probably bugs) to those mechanisms - adding additional rulethickness variants is non trivial since the rulethickness is also used elsewhere (rounded corners etc) and the code would become rather messy; also, we can use mp for special frames (after all, extra thickness makes no sense without extra colors) so, as an experiment i added support for extra offsets but these work *on top* of the existing offset; they have names like loffset, roffset, toffset and boffset; the speed penalty is neglectable (only mkiv because it has a more clever inheritance model for derived framed mechanisms) Hans ps. for quite a long time there is a command \offset which takes leftoffset cum suis plus some more ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Switching off Header only on a particular page
by Curious Learn 03 Mar '09

03 Mar '09

Hi, Is there a way to switch off just the header on a particular page? The Context manual gives the command \noheaderandfooterlines to switch off both. However, I want the page number (which is in the footer) on the first page, but no headers on the first page. Thanks.

Update script does not work
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 03 Mar '09

03 Mar '09

Hello, When I use mtxrun.cmd --script mtx-update.lua --update --force --engine=all --platform=windows --context=beta --texroot=C:\contextminimal the rsync ends up with something like "destination and source locations are the same". I had many problems with updating this way, but when downloaded cont-tmg.zip directly from pragma and unpacked it into tree they all has gone . Definitely, something wrong with the mtx-update script or garden folders. Who can look into it? Best regards, Vyatcheslav
