Manipulating the pagenumber in the TOC
by Willi Egger 21 Apr '19

21 Apr '19

Hi all, "when manipulating in one area you will have to manipulate also in other aeras” I must confess. I asked some time ago about manipulating the pagenumber. Wolfgang provide me the following approach: \cldcontext{“\letterpercent.0f”,(\pagenumber+1)/2} This works indeed fine. However now I am confronted with the fact, that in the TOC the manipulated pagenumbers should be taken into account. Wolfgang’s approach does not help and ends in an error: \define[1]\SectionTOCPagenumber{ \cldcontext{“\letterpercent.0f”,(\pagenumber+1)/2}} \setuplist [section] [pagecommand=\SectionTOCPagenumber] My question is: is there a way to manipulate the pagenumber in the TOC such, that it reflects the pagenumbers in the document? Kind regards Willi

I'm trying to use with Context makecirc a metapost library to draw electric circuits, but I have problems with the labels of the circuits element that are not displayed correctly. FIRST EXAMPLE (No labels are displayed) ------------- \starttext \startMPinclusions input makecirc; \stopMPinclusions \startstaticMPfigure{circ1} u:= 1cm ; source.e((0,0u),DC,90,"\Delta V","2V") ; resistor.a((2u,1u),normal,90,"R_1","1$\Omega$") ; resistor.b((2u,-1u),normal,90,"R_2","2$\Omega$") ; wire(S.e.p,R.a.r,udsq) ; wire(S.e.n,R.b.l,udsq) ; wire(R.a.l,R.b.r,udsq) ; \stopstaticMPfigure \usestaticMPfigure[circ1] \stoptext ----------------- SECOND EXAMPLE (In the first circuit are displayed the labels of the second one and in the second only ?? are displayed) ----------------- \starttext \startstaticMPfigure{circ1} input makecirc; u:= 1cm ; source.e((0,0u),DC,90,"\Delta V","2V") ; resistor.a((2u,1u),normal,90,"R_1","1$\Omega$") ; resistor.b((2u,-1u),normal,90,"R_2","2$\Omega$") ; wire(S.e.p,R.a.r,udsq) ; wire(S.e.n,R.b.l,udsq) ; wire(R.a.l,R.b.r,udsq) ; \stopstaticMPfigure \usestaticMPfigure[circ1] \startstaticMPfigure{circ2} input makecirc; u:= 1cm ; source.e((0,0u),DC,90,"\Delta V","4V") ; resistor.a((2u,1u),normal,90,"R_3","3$\Omega$") ; resistor.b((2u,-1u),normal,90,"R_4","4$\Omega$") ; wire(S.e.p,R.a.r,udsq) ; wire(S.e.n,R.b.l,udsq) ; wire(R.a.l,R.b.r,udsq) ; \stopstaticMPfigure \usestaticMPfigure[circ2] \stoptext -- Andrea De Michele

Left frame on a block of text
by Gilles Waeber 21 Apr '19

21 Apr '19

Hi, I'm trying to create a style with a left border in the margin. I want the border to start and stop with the text. For the bottom I used framedepth but the bar still goes too far on the top? \showframe \showboxes \defineframedtext[leftbartext][ width=broad, frame=off, leftframe=on, rulethickness=.5ex, offset=-\framedparameter{rulethickness}, frameoffset=\dimexpr\leftmargindistance + \framedparameter{rulethickness}\relax, framedepth=-\framedparameter{frameoffset}, ] \starttext \startleftbartext \input knuth \stopleftbartext \stoptext Regards, Gilles

Thanks, but don't bother if I'm the only one using this formatting. I've lowercased the switch name in the wiki section.

Isn't the name ConTeXt a bit search-engine unfriendly?
by Exp 19 Apr '19

19 Apr '19

Hi, ConTeXt is great but the pun of the name could cause unnecessary annoyance for newbies like me who need to google it a lot. Not sure if this is the right place to ask but is it possible to rename it to, like, ConTeX, in the future? Cheers, Exp

Font expansion breaks interword spacing

Hi, If I compile the following code, the result is not the one expected. \usemodule[tikz] \usetikzlibrary[matrix,decorations.pathreplacing, calc, positioning,fit] \starttext \starttikzpicture[>=stealth,thick,baseline, every right delimiter/.append style={name=rd}, ] \matrix [matrix of math nodes, left delimiter=(, right delimiter=), ](A){ a_{1,1} & a_{1,2} & \dots & a_{1,j} & \dots & a_{1,n}\\ a_{2,1} & a_{2,2} & \dots & a_{2,j} & \dots & a_{2,n}\\ \vdots & \vdots & & \vdots & & \vdots\\ a_{i,1} & a_{i,2} & \dots & a_{i,j} & \dots & a_{i,n}\\ \vdots & \vdots & & \vdots & & \vdots\\ a_{n,1} & a_{n,2} & \dots & a_{n,j} & \dots & a_{n,n}\\ }; \draw[<-] (rd)--++(0:6mm) node[right]{$i$-ième colonne}; \draw[<-] (A.south-|A-1-4.center) --++(-90:6mm) node[below]{$j$-ième colonne}; \stoptikzpicture \stoptext Thank you Fabrice

Imposition: 4 on 1, last 2 pages upside down
by Paul Schalck 18 Apr '19

18 Apr '19

Hello, I'm trying to get four small A6 pages on one A4 page (portrait) like this: 4 1 3 2 The last two pages should be upside down. This is my starting point: \setuppapersize[A6][A4] \setuparranging[1*4] Aside from the different page sequence, this rotates the last two pages, which is not what I'm looking for. Can anyone help me with this? Sorry if this has been covered before. I'm not very familiar with imposition. Greetings! Paul
