frames and hyphenation
by Hans van der Meer 02 Jul '07

02 Jul '07

I encountered some strange thing with framedtext's in trying to define one where hyphenation is suppressed. The definition is: \defineframedtext[myblock][frame=off,style=\tt,width=0.8 \makeupwidth,before=\nohyphens] But then \startmyblock text \stopmyblock does not stop hyphenation. While \startmyblock\nohyphens text \stopmyblock stops it. Since I would like to have the myblock's all having suppressed hyphenation I am at a loss how to do it. Could it be that the \nohyphens in the "before" is overriden by something? It looks like, because setting lefthyphenmin and righthyphenmin zero at that point did not work either. By the way it is a bit difficult to give an exact example, because hyphenation so much depends on ones linesize and font dimensions. Hans van der Meer

Re: [NTG-context] Itemize problem

Patrick et al, I also tried it on live.contextgarden.net and there it works fine. But not with my Context. I have some definitions but they did not change for more than 6 months, and comparing my setups with some of my backups, nothing has changed. The only change is that I updated Context with ctxtools --update from the Scite menu. I don't know which of my definitions or setups could cause this. I am not using \setupitemize. I hope someone can help. Kind regards Wim

graphic combinations captions
by Steffen Fritzsche 01 Jul '07

01 Jul '07

Hallo, I have got a problem with my the captions of my graphic combinations. How can I adjust the font-size of the caption which goes under each graphic? Problem is, that my general graphic caption is a smaller font-size ... the detail captions seem to use the default document font-size. for placing the graphics I use following code ... \placefigure [here][fig:test1] {test1 label} { \startcombination[2*1] {\externalfigure[leftTest]}{left test label} {\externalfigure[rightTest]}{right test label} \stopcombination } My captions are formatted with this command ... \setupcaptions [way=bytext, align=left, style={\switchtobodyfont[8pt]}] Thanks for your help! Steffen

Latest Context version ?
by w.neimeijer＠hccnet.nl 01 Jul '07

01 Jul '07

Hi, I was looking on the Context Wiki and Pragma to check whether the Context version I am using is still up to date. I am using Context version 2007.06.06 09:53. But on Pragma in the download area the main Context distribution has a date/timestamp 2007-04-17 14:03. On the Context Wiki on the Release Notes page it also mentions Context 2007.04.17. How can I have a newer Context version, which apparently does not exist ? Kind regards Wim

columns/blank=
by Patrick Gundlach 01 Jul '07

01 Jul '07

Hi, what is the rationale behind \setupblank[\@@klblank]% \ifdim\ctxparskip>\zeropoint\relax \setupwhitespace[\@@klblank]% \fi in page-mul.tex (columns)? It seems to me that blank=line inside a startcolumn does not work if ctxparskip = 0pt, which is the default. So when I'd like to have setupwhitespace[line] to get paragraphs separated by blank lines inside a column, I have to do this some other way?!? Patrick

chapter names in header
by Patrick Gundlach 01 Jul '07

01 Jul '07

Hi, what is wrong with -------------------------------------------------- \setuppagenumbering[location=] \starttext \setupheadertexts[text][section][chapter] \dorecurse{8}{\chapter{chapter - \recurselevel} \input tufte \dorecurse{8}{\section {section - \recurselevel} \input knuth \input knuth } } \stoptext -------------------------------------------------- ?? The header looks strange - example: on page four I'd expect 'section 4' and 'chapter 1' in the head. Patrick

white around descriptions
by Hans van der Meer 30 Jun '07

30 Jun '07

I find a get a lot of whitespace around my defined descriptions. Setting \setupdescriptions[\c!before=,\c!inbetween=,\c!after=] does not much help. Is there something else that can be done. Preferably without resorting to wild guesses like "before=\godown[-10pt]" or the like. Or is there something else I fail to see. A sample of the code involved(don't mind the \@@exm.. parameters, they are defined elsewhere, annotationtext is a token register): \definedescription[annotationblock][margin=no,location=top,width=broad,% before=,inbetween=,after=\strut,% headstyle=\@@exmintrostyle,style=\@@exmstyle,% text=\placeannotationstart] \def\annotation#1\par{\global\annotationtext={#1}}% \long\def\startannotation#1\stopannotation{\global\annotationtext={#1}}% %....................................................................... % placing the annotation indicator in the annotationblock description \def\placeannotationstart{% no white above and below rule \vboxinsideframedtext{% \setuptextrules[style=\@@exmintrostyle]% \textrule{\WWord{\Note}}}} Hans van der Meer

Wrong SRA3 papersize ?
by luigi scarso 30 Jun '07

30 Jun '07

In page-lay.tex \definepapersize [SRA3] [\c!width=320mm,\c!height=450mm] maybe is wrong. It should be \definepapersize [SRA3] [\c!width=450mm,\c!height=320mm] See http://www.theearthpaper.net/paper-sizes.html but need a confirm -- luigi ---------------------------------------------------------------- If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context(a)ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net
