A ConTeXt bug tracker to keep track of reported bugs?
by Khaled Hosny 11 Sep '08

11 Sep '08

I've reported several bugs (mostly Arabic related) and I'm afraid it might get lost as time goes, I wonder if there is a bug tracker for ConTeXt where we can track reported bugs? I searched the wiki and I didn't find any thing. -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localizer and member of Arabeyes.org team

first steps with \dosingleempty
by Goebel, Juergen 11 Sep '08

11 Sep '08

Hi, Regarding the following example I've got two questions. (1) Why don't I ever see the argument #2 in the output? (2) What do I have to do to suppress the unwanted space after the end of the output of this macro (as can be seen in the result before the following comma)? Regards, Juergen \def\Geb{\dosingleempty\doMyGeb} \def\doMyGeb[#1]#2#3{, x % \iffirstargument% Aha \else \ifsecondargument% #2 \else% ... %C% \fi \fi \ifthirdargument% #3% \else% ...% \fi} \starttext \Geb{Ulm}{11. 9. 2008} % should deliver x Ulm 11. 9. 2008 \Geb[Ulm]{Ulm}{11. 9. 2008} % should deliver x Aha Ulm 11. 9. 2008 \Geb{}{11. 9. 2008} % should deliver x ... 11. 9. 2008 \Geb{Ulm}{} % should deliver x Ulm ... \Geb{}{} % should deliver x ... \stoptext

use of the \cite command (bib-module)
by Martin Hoher 11 Sep '08

11 Sep '08

Hello, concerning the bib-module and the \cite command I've got two questions: (1) The output in the text of the document should look like this: Goldstein (2003:95). The name of the author should be located on the outside of the brackets. Goldstein refers to the name of the author, 2003 is the year of publication and 95 is the relevant page number. My approach until now: \cite[extras={:95}][G:2003] It generates the following output: (Goldstein 2003:95) (2) The output in the text should look like this: (vgl. Goldstein 2003:95) My intention is to place the expression "vgl." in front of the authorname and inside of the brackets. If someone has an idea to solve this little problem, it will be great to here from you soon. Greetings Martin

Strange behaviour with tikz
by Eric DÉTREZ 11 Sep '08

11 Sep '08

Hello again I don't understand a strange thing. Patterns in tikz become black in some case. Here is a minimal example : *************************************** \usemodule[tikz] \usetikzlibrary[patterns] \starttext blabla \chapter {blabla} \starttikzpicture \draw [pattern=north west lines](0,0) rectangle +(1,2); \stoptikzpicture \stoptext ************************************* Without any text before the chapter or without the chapter command I see the patterns. With these commands I just see a black rectangle. Can I get my patterns back ?

Hi, I have a quite large project: over 700 pages, 2500 footnotes, some tables, figures etc. Everything works well when typeset in two parts.

\setuphead question
by Alan Stone 10 Sep '08

How do you obtain the same result as \setuphead[chapter][header=option(,footer=option)] ( option = none empty high nomarking ) in a document where [header/footer][left/rightedge]="not empty" on chapter pages i.e. only [header/footer][text]=option for chapter pages and others ( left/right edge ) are not modified ? -- Best, Alan * using ConTeXt ver: 2008.08.18 14:00 MKIV fmt: 2008.8.22 int: english/english (on Windows XP)

Although I must admit, that this 'handling' might be an advantage of LaTeX. I never wanted to learn TeX, but maybe now I have to (at least to some extent). And sorry for the changing subject, I'll change to the non-digest mode. Jürgen
