Offline documentations
by Juliano David Hilario 02 Oct '23

02 Oct '23

Is there a way to view the documentations offline? Sort of the way the Python docs work, where you could just search for a subject and it will function regardless of internet connection. If it's not yet working, I could contribute some of my time if it's not that a heavy of a task. Something like this would be convient, since some like to search by topic. Though since we probably have the common ground of liking writing, we, or most of us, prefer referring to current manuals out there.

Re: wiki update: Modules
by Andres Conrado Montoya 02 Oct '23

In the wiki, if I click a link to check a source code file (for example https://source.contextgarden.net/tex/context/base/mkiv/m-catchword.mkiv) I get a blank page with a very long list of source files on the left. If I search for the file with my browser's ctrl+f on that page, it returns zero results. I'm using Chrome. It happens for every link to source files. Not sure if it's a problem with my setup, but I have noticed that before, in different machines. Can anybody else confirm if they can correctly see the source files when clicking the links? -- Andrés Conrado Montoya Andi Kú andresconrado(a)gmail.com http://sesentaycuatro.com http://messier87.com http://chiquitico.org ---------------------------------------- Los fines no justifican los medios, porque la medida verdadera de nuestro carácter está dada por los medios que estamos dispuestos a utilizar, no por los fines que proclamamos. ---------------------------------------- “You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it.

Finding the position of an image on the page.
by peter.hopcroft＠icloud.com 01 Oct '23

01 Oct '23

Hello list, Can I find the position of an image on the page after I have placed the image with \externalfigure? For example, the top, left corner of the image might be 50 mm in from left side of page and 120 mm down from the top of the page. I know I can use \getfiguredimensions to find information about the placed image, but it does not give me the position of the image. Thank you Peter Hopcroft

Bug? Text following columns at end of page goes into footer not next page
by Bruce Horrocks 30 Sep '23

30 Sep '23

Two column text that ends near the foot of a page can push the next line into the footer rather than starting a new page. MWE for ConTeXt ver: 2023.09.26 18:19 LMTX :- \setuppapersize [A4] \showframe \starttext Knuth in knolumns \dorecurse{30}{\crlf} \startcolumns \input knuth \stopcolumns This line goes into the footer rather than the next page. \stoptext — Bruce Horrocks Hampshire, UK

formula alignment for mathalign
by Aditya Mahajan 28 Sep '23

28 Sep '23

Hi, The `align` parameter of `\setupformulas` is ignored in mathalign. Consider the following MWE: \setupformulas[align=flushleft,leftmargin=2em] \starttext \startformula A = B \stopformula vs \startformula \startalign \NC A \NC B \NR \NC A \NC B \NR \stopalign \stopformula \stoptext The first display formula is flush left, but the aligned formula is centered on the page. This appears to be a regression compared to MkIV, where the above example works correctly. Aditya

Issue : compilation error when using mathcases with pagella fonts (and others)
by Vincent Picard 26 Sep '23

26 Sep '23

Hello, Since ConTexT last upgrade (ltmx 2023.09.18 21:13), I have a document that won't compile with ConTexT. The problem seems to occur when using mathcases with some ConTeXt provided fonts, including pagella. This is a minimal not working example : \setupbodyfont[pagella] \starttext \startformula \delta_{ij} = \startmathcases \NC 1 \NC \text{if } i = j \NR \NC 0 \NC \text{otherwise} \NR \stopmathcases \stopformula \stoptext The error is : run callback [44]: ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/math-fnt.lmt:56: table index is nil\nstack traceback:\n ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/math-fnt.lmt:56: in metamethod 'index'\n ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/math-fnt.lmt:104: in function <...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/math-fnt.lmt:62>\n [C]: in upvalue 'builders_kernel_mlisttohlist'\n [string \"local tonut = nodes.tonut...\"]:43: in function <[string \"local tonut = nodes.tonut...\"]:18>\n (...tail calls...)\n ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/math-noa.lmt:2986: in function <...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/math-noa.lmt:2984> My system is : FreeBSD 64bits Thank you for any help.

by Pablo Rodriguez 26 Sep '23

26 Sep '23

Dear list, I have the following sample (with current latest from 2023.09.18 21:13): \setuppapersize[A6] \starttext \startsetups[forfootnote] \setupitemgroup [itemize][1] [ before={\endgraf{\ttbf [before]}\endgraf}, after={\endgraf{\ttbf [after]}\endgraf}] \stopsetups \setupnote[footnote][setups=forfootnote] \footnote{\startitemize \startitem Choose the correct answer. \startitemize \item This one \stopitemize \stopitem \stopitemize} \stoptext Excuse my ignorance, but which is the right way to get the itemize setup only for footnotes? Many thanks for your help, Pablo
