Losing frames in table
by David Arnold 03 Nov '04

03 Nov '04

All, How come I don't get frames (rightframe=on, bottomframe=on) in my table with this? \setupTABLE[background=screen,screen=0.8,color=darkred,frame=off] \setupTABLE[column][first][rightframe=on] \setupTABLE[row][first][bottomframe=on] \placetable[none]{}{% \bTABLE[align={middle,lohi},width=3em] \bTR \bTD $x$ \eTD \bTD $y$ \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD $x_1$ \eTD \bTD $y_1$ \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD $x_2$ \eTD \bTD $y_2$ \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD $\vdots$ \eTD \bTD $\vdots$ \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD $x_n$ \eTD \bTD $y_n$ \eTD \eTR \eTABLE}

Local environment

Suddendly I get this error message : systems : end file sda at line 3 ! Use of \localenvironment doesn't match its definition. l.6 \localenvironment s da-env-slides ? I upgraded a couple of weeks ago to the latest ConTeXt version and this error message is new. Is there some workaround? Thanks in advance, -- Fabrice

Re: [NTG-context] Font definitions.
by Dirar BOUGATEF 02 Nov '04

Thanks Hans. I see my error now. I was using a typescript name where a fontsynonym name was needed. I still have a question about \small and \big. i tried the \showbodyfontenvironment to see the sizes then tried this: {\big Hello world}Hello world{\small Hello world} I get the first and the second Hello world at the same size, where the fonts table shows that i should have \big at 14.3pt when my current size is at 12. Is there any interest to define a new font environment in this case ? This my example: \usetypescriptfile[Karat.tex] \usetypescript[karat] \setupbodyfont[karat,ss,12pt] \starttext \showbodyfontenvironment {\big Hello world}Hello world{\small Hello world} \stoptext Many thanks.

Thanks to all who replied, including Matthias Weber, Hans Hagen and Patrick Gundlach. The problem was fixed as soon as I used Expert mode in G. Wierda's TeX i-installer to install the 2004 branch (rather than the default 2003 package). I then used the ConTeXt updater i-installer and everything seems to be fine again. --shiv--

three questions on footnotes
by Steffen Wolfrum 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

Hi, as beautiful footnote placement is one of the most brilliant features in TeX I were happy if these three detail questions could also be answered with ConTeXt. Hans, do you have some time left to have a look, please? As always, thank you very much, Steffen -> 1. headcommand How do I use this new command for moving my footnotemarker? I found only "location=top" showing a result and that was quite stupid ... \setupfootnotedefinition[location=command,headcommand=\llap] -> 2. footnotes (short: behind, long: below)? Is there a predefined command for placing short footnotes at the bottom of each page but horizontally continuos? Is saw this way of typesetting footnotes in a book I've read. It looks likes this: body text body text body text body text body bo- dy text body text body. ------ 1 short 2 short 3 short 4 short 5 but hey: the long note starts in a new line! I have never seen footnotes like this before. But it reads very pleasant: This way you don't have lot of empty white space (because of short notes), and it still is very clear (for the long footnote starts on a new line). Is it possible to typeset this in ConTeXt? -> 3. Footnotes in margin? Hans once posted the code listed below. But the result on longer footnotes were halfempty (body text) pages. Is there a bug fix, a work around? > >does ConTeXt provide a way to place footnote (not margin notes!) per page - but not below the body text? > >A suitable place could be the margin.
