Line break and \in{....}[] command; bookmarks
by Tobias Burnus 01 May '08

01 May '08

Hi all, I use \definereferenceformat[insection][text=Section] however, sometimes the item is that long that ........ Section 5.5 .......... looks much nicer than a "5.5" sticking out of the margin. Is there a possibility to allow a line break between the text and the number? Secondly, I want to use acroread's bookmarks. But I have two problems: a) I failed to create a bookmark for the title page. What is the best way to do so? Currently, I use: \startmakeup[standard][doublesided=no,page=right] ... \stopmakeup b) Somehow the bookmark list goes wrong. I have: \placebookmarks[chapterEP,chapter,section,subsection] where chapterEP is a specially designed version of \chapter but should be on the same level. First, everything goes nice, but then a chapterEP becomes a descendant of another chapterEP. I have no idea how I can reduce the problem to a small example or how to fix it. Any idea? ... chapterEP section subsection subsection section subsection subsection chapterEP section section chapterEP section chapterEP <--- Wrong! section section chapterEP (still wrong level) section section chapterEP <-- Another wrong level) chapterEP (still wrong level) chapterEP (still wrong level, but one less) chapterEP (still wrong level) chapterEP <-- OK again chapterEP Tobias

Trouble with Index
by cidadaum＠sapo.pt 01 May '08

01 May '08

So far I have not succeded to make an index in a book I am typesetting. I write something like: \starttext \defineregister[index][indices] \index[Tantrum]Tantrums can be normal for \index[tantrum][tantrum+toddlers]toddlers. Young children have them for many reasons like being tired, feeling out of control, over-stimulated, or wanting something they can't have. General hints: Toddlers and preschoolers cannot regulate themselves because they don't yet know their own limits. \completeindex \stoptext And the message I get is: "index not found/processed". In the pdf appears a page with Index but no entries.

\indenting[next] and math => no vertical space before the formula
by Mikael Persson 30 Apr '08

30 Apr '08

Dear all, I have a problem with \indenting[next] combined with math formulas. Look at the example below. The space between the text above the formula and the formula is way to small. This goes away if I change next to for example yes. Btw, this happens on my TeXLive 2007 on ubuntu at home, my ConTeXt minimal from 2007-04-03 at work and on live.contextgarden.net (with pdfTeX but not LuaTeX). Do I misuse the indenting macros? Thanks, Micke P % test file \setupindenting[yes,small] \indenting[next] \starttext Hello World! This is just some dumb text to show the problem. \startformula a=b \stopformula Goodbye World! The space below the formula is OK. \stoptext

Table of contents customization
by Noé Cuneo 30 Apr '08

30 Apr '08

Hi all, I've been using ConTeXT for quite a while now, and I am trying to build my own customized environnment. I have some trouble customizing my content table. I tried everything I could, including reading the manual twice over, and I still can't figure out why none of my ideas will work! In fact, my configuration looks like this: \setupcombinedlist[content][level=4,alternative=c] \setuplist[chapter][width=7mm,style=bold] \setuplist[section][width=10mm,margin=10mm] \setuplist[subsection] [width=13mm,style=slanted,pagestyle=normal,margin=21mm] What I would like is the number to be separated from the page name by a ".", which would give something like: 1. Chapter name................. 32 I tried \setupcombinedlist[content][level=4,alternative=c, separator={.}], but it doesn't work. Although 'separator' is documented as the separator between the number and the pagename, it appears to be the separator between the number and subnumbers, like, with separator={ppp}: 1 MyChapter ............ 1ppp1 Mysection.......... Which is not quite what I expect! So i tried setting something like \def\mycommand#1{#1.} \setupcombinedlist[content][level=4,alternative=c, numbercommand={\mycommand}] Which works, except for the fact that when there is no number (like in my frontmatter), the "." is shown anyway... So I naturally tried: \def\mycommand#1{\doifnotempty{#1}{#1.}} Which doesn't work! I still get something like . Preamble 1. ChapterOne 1.1 Section So even if no number is given, the doifnotempty block still is executed! I tried a lot of combinations, like \def\mycommand#1{\doifdefined{#1}{#1.}} or \def\mycommand#1{\doifnot{#1}{}{#1.}} But none of these will compile... So at this point, I don't see any solution, which is why I really would appreciate any suggestion! Thank you very much!

Have you found that whitespace? Aren't the foldmarks positioned in absolute values relative to the page? There is no whitespace involved, isn't it? So I don't understand this 5mm offset at all.

columns and \definemakeup
by Suno Ano 30 Apr '08

30 Apr '08

Hi Folks! I am in the curse of setting up the environment plus a project structure for a book. My problem is with a few pages like for example colofon where I used ,----[ content from comp_colophon.tex ] | \startcomponent comp_colophon | \product prod_back_matter | \project proj_a_book | | \startstandardmakeup[doublesided=no, page=right] | | \startalignment[flushleft] | \ssd Colophon\par | \blank[1mm] | \ssa \title\par | \stopalignment | | \hairline | | \stopstandardmakeup | | % ------- | | \startstandardmakeup[doublesided=no, page=left] | \stopstandardmakeup | | | \stopcomponent `---- Now I want the text to be in columns -- two that is ... However, I tried with ,---- | \startcolumns[n=2] | <my text goes here> | \stopcolumns `---- and ,---- | \definecolumnset[example][n=2] | | \starttext | \startcolumnset[example] | \dorecurse{15}{\fakewords{100}{200}\par} | \stopcolumnset | \stoptext `---- but I just get one column in both cases. Can anyone tell me how I would for example use \definemakeup in order to get exactly what \startstandardmakeup and \stopstandardmakeup provides me with PLUS the text gets typeset into two columns? Maybe if it is not possible with \definemakeup what else could I do? Tia!

Missing character in texgyreheros
by luigi scarso 29 Apr '08

29 Apr '08

Sorry for the noise, but i'm in the middle between an old context mkii (2005) and mkiv stylesheet for a greek utf-encoded file and i'm a bit confused. While using Heros font, I have: Missing character: There is no ώ (974) in font /home/usr7/tex/texmf/fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre/texgyreheros-regular.otf! But in enco-def.tex there is \definecharacter greekomegatonos {'w} so I believe that it's possible to replace missing glyph with {'w} Maybe some switch ? I'm using \usetypescript[postscript] \setupbodyfont[postscript,10pt,ss] -- luigi it's new . it's powerful . it's luatex . http://www.luatex.org
