minimal ConTeXt tree
by Steffen Wolfrum 01 Nov '04

Hi all, I wanted to give my TeX a fresh start, deleted the complete tetex folder and downloaded Hans' "macosxtex.zip". Could someone please share his/her experience what to do now - in order to get the files in this zip work? I am working on MacOSX and - by now - I am not so firm on the path topic that's probably necessary now... so I need probably a *very easy explanation* :o/ Any help welcome! Steffen

Re: subsubsubsection
by Steffen Wolfrum 31 Oct '04

... sure I have seen that subsubsubsection is already defined in core-sec.tex. Then the numbering/charactering works fine ... BUT why does a heading that's mapped to it just not appear in the TOC? Steffen

side-by-side
by David Arnold 31 Oct '04

All, I have: \page \subject{Plotting} With preliminaries completed, plotting is a simple matter. \starttyping >> x=linspace(-2,4); >> y=x.^2-2*x-3; >> plot(x,y) >> xlabel('x') >> ylabel('y') >> title('y = x^2 -2x -3') >> grid on \stoptyping \placefigure[none]{}{\externalfigure[slide1.png]} I'd like to arrange this on my slide side-by-side, the code to the left, the image to the right. If I we're doing this in Latex, I would probably use minipage environments for this. Can someone hint at the Context Way of doing this? I'd like my code vertically centered on the left, the image on the right. Thanks.

\def\vec#1
by David Arnold 31 Oct '04

All, This is fine. \starttext \startformula \left(\matrix{y_1\cr y_2\cr \vdots\cr y_n}\right)= \left(\matrix{x_1^2\cr x_2^2\cr \vdots\cr x_n^2}\right) -2\left(\matrix{x_1\cr x_2\cr \vdots\cr x_n}\right) -\left(\matrix{3\cr 3\cr \vdots\cr 3}\right). \stopformula If \startformula \vec x =\left(\matrix{x_1\cr x_2\cr \vdots\cr x_n}\right)\quad\hbox{and}\quad \vec y =\left(\matrix{y_1\cr y_2\cr \vdots\cr y_n}\right), \stopformula \stoptext But when I redefine \vec, I get a problem. \def\vec#1{\bf #1} \starttext \startformula \left(\matrix{y_1\cr y_2\cr \vdots\cr y_n}\right)= \left(\matrix{x_1^2\cr x_2^2\cr \vdots\cr x_n^2}\right) -2\left(\matrix{x_1\cr x_2\cr \vdots\cr x_n}\right) -\left(\matrix{3\cr 3\cr \vdots\cr 3}\right). \stopformula If \startformula \vec x =\left(\matrix{x_1\cr x_2\cr \vdots\cr x_n}\right)\quad\hbox{and}\quad \vec y =\left(\matrix{y_1\cr y_2\cr \vdots\cr y_n}\right), \stopformula \stoptext I thought \vec in this case should just chew up the very next symbol, but the bold seems to continue into the display in the second formula. I'm missing something here. What is it?

subsubsubsection
by Steffen Wolfrum 31 Oct '04

31 Oct '04

Hi, I have to typeset a document with 5 heading levels. So I wanted to create a subsubsubsection (section-6). But it doesn't work. According to the manual I did it like that: \definesection[section-6] \setupsection[section-6][conversion=characters,previousnumber=no] \definehead[LevelFive][section-6] But these headings get numbers (like section-5) and no entry in the TOC. When I would define \definehead[LevelFive][section-5] then there is an entry in the TOC (but with the wrong counter) Why does \definesection[section-6] not work (for me)? Steffen

startyping modification
by David Arnold 31 Oct '04

31 Oct '04

All, I have: \starttyping y = x.^2 -2*x - 3 \stoptyping I'd like, just this one time, to typeset this so it fall in the middle of the page, with a slightly enlarged fontsize. What's the best way to do this?

Re: [NTG-context] Re: Installing a new font.

Got it by the end. I had to uncomment the line that includes the use of Type-buy which includes the fallback typescript. Thanks to you all guys, you've made a happy man. _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus
