(repost) How to put float caption header in margin?
by Robin Kirkham 28 Feb '07

28 Feb '07

Hi all, I fear to re-post this request, but I've read (well, tried to read) page-flt.tex and I still am not certain what to do (or what to override) to do this. The <command> key of \setupcaptions is not useful, as it seems to pass the entire caption (including the header part) as a single argument: How can I put the header part only of a float caption (i.e., the "Figure 6" bit) in the left margin (so as to match \setupheads [alternative=inmargin]), but leaving the caption text part in the normal place?

boldmath greek doesn't work in mathalign

Helo, I want to have boldmath in mathalign environment. I use the small example below. I find that boldmath greek symbols don't appear correctly, more precisely, in the first column. What I have made wrong here? Any comments and suggestions are appreciated. TIA.

\frak (Fractur) in math mode
by Aditya Mahajan 28 Feb '07

28 Feb '07

Hi Hans and Taco, Something seems to be broken with \frak. \frak does not work in math mode and works in text mode! For example $\frak ABC$ {\frak ABC} A workaround is to use \fraktur, which works fine in math mode, but it will be nice to remove this bug. Aditya

ctags and ConTeXt
by Aditya Mahajan 27 Feb '07

27 Feb '07

Hi, I am wondering how others manage a large list of reference labels in ConTeXt. I use Vim as an editor and it supports ctags. ctags is a utility that is basically for supporting tags in programs (initially only for C, and hence the name), but can be used relatively easily with LaTeX. Basically, ctags creates a tag file with the format <tag-name> <tag-file> <tag-regex> (for details see http://ctags.sourceforge.net/FORMAT) Suppose I have a bunch of references all starting from eq:. Then inside Vim, I can type eq: and press ^X^T for Vim to search for the tags file with everything starting with eq: and I get to see all of them in a pop up menu. I can choose which ever label I want and continue. Further I can press ^] on a tag, and Vim jumps to the location of the tag, something like a hyperlink within the editor. I find both these features very useful while working for files with more than 50 tags. Creating a tag file for LaTeX is easy, since in LaTeX all labels are created using \label{....}. So, you can instruct ctags (the program) to search the file for \label{...} and store the first argument to the tags file. However, taking this approach with ConTeXt is almost impossible. Since the label is tied to the environment that creates it, it is impossible to parse. There is no way a reg-ex can determine if mylabel in \startproblem[mylabel] is an optional argument or a label. So, the only way to really get the label is through TeX itself. The tui file has some information, but it can be very hard to parse. A typical tui file has enteries like c \mainreference{}{cite-nsf-193}{2--0-2-4-2-0-0-0--9}{11}{MarschakRadner:1972} c \mainreference{}{fnt:f:2}{2--0-2-4-1-0-0-0--8}{10}{} c \mainreference{}{sec:prelim}{2--0-2-4-1-0-0-0--8}{10}{{C.4.1}{Preliminaries}} where the first two are auto-generated, while I only want the user entered tags to be stored. Suppose, one is willing to have the extra overhead of parsing every mainreference in the tag file. I can get the first two pieces of information for the tag file, the name of the tag and the file that it is in. But how do I get a regex (or linenumber) of where the tag is located in the file, so that ^] takes me to that tag. I can not figure out a regex which will take care of every case. Is there some other way to proceed? What are those other numbers in \mainreferece, do they contain any information about the line in the source file that generated the tag. And more generally, what do others do to keep track of labels in large projects. Aditya

how to put header like "Example 1.1" in frame?
by Dalyoung Jeong 27 Feb '07

27 Feb '07

Deaer all, To give a numbering to the examples in a chapter, I tired the following: \defineenumeration[example] [location=serried, headstyle=bold, text=Example, way=bychapter, width=broad, number=yes, after=] To use \inframed, I am able to include "Example" inside the frame but not the numbers. Please tell me how to put the numbering in the frame too. Thank you. Regards, Dalyoung

XeTeX problem again
by Oliver Buerschaper 27 Feb '07

27 Feb '07

Dear folks, I'm afraid I'm facing the XeTeX problem again after I updated ConTeXt to version 2007.02.21 :-( On a freshly installed MacTeX-2007 (which is TeXLive 2007 up to minor modifications) everything is fine. The ConTeXt version is 2007.01.12. Then I ran ctxtools which installed an updated ConTeXt in texmf-local (besides the folder 2007). Now the pdfTeX engine still works fine. However, XeTeX complained about the wrong format files. So I remade them with "texexec --make --xtx en nl". Later XeTeX spills out the following: --- TeXExec | processing document 'test.tex' TeXExec | no ctx file found TeXExec | tex processing method: context TeXExec | TeX run 1 TeXExec | writing option file test.top TeXExec | using randomseed 270 TeXExec | tex engine: xetex TeXExec | tex format: cont-en This is XeTeXk, Version 3.141592-2.2-0.996 (Web2C 7.5.6) %&-line parsing enabled.

So I'm completely lost! Can anyone help? Oliver P.S. How can I get "texexec --make --all" to also make the XeTeX formats?

split footnote bug
by Steffen Wolfrum 26 Feb '07

26 Feb '07

Hi, it seems this thread got lost. For it describes a quite ugly phenomenon I dare to post it again again. Please, have a look at this 3-page example: \newdimen\XVertikal \XVertikal=12pt \setupbodyfont[postscript,10pt] \setupinterlinespace[line=\XVertikal] \setuplayout [width=113mm,height=48\XVertikal, backspace=20mm,topspace=15mm, header=\XVertikal,headerdistance=0.5\XVertikal, footer=3.5\XVertikal,footerdistance=0pt, location=middle,marking=on,grid=yes] \showframe \showgrid \showgridboxes \showstruts \starttext \dorecurse{10}{\input ward\footnote{\input tufte \relax}} \stoptext On page 2 the bottom most line slips down lower than on the other pages. I observed this behavior in a 450 pages book and the amount the bottom line goes down when footnotes a split is always the same. Is this because of unhappy values in setuplayout or is it a bug?

tree charts

Dear cabal, Do any of you have any examples of tree charts done in, say, MetaFun? Are there any macros, libraries etc. for easy tree charts in \ConTeXt?
