indenting and whitespace in framedtext
by Meer, Hans van der 09 Nov '16

09 Nov '16

Quoting from the command reference: \startframedtext inherits \setupframedtext and \setupframedtext ... indenting = inherits \setupindenting I interprete this as \setupindenting is carried to the inside of the framedtext but this thus not happen. Instead one explicitely sets it on the call of \startframedtext. Why doesn't \startframedtext inherit the value from the document? This is a problem because I need this setup for framedtexts called in an inner module. A second, even more serious problem for me is that the framedtext is ignoring the \setupwhitespace. For both problems see the example below.

I do not understand why this is not indented by the latest ConTeXt beta. Neither do options [yes] or [first] on \setupindenting.

Dear Otared, Hi, I run the given code and got an error message as following. tex error > tex error on line 1 in file virtual://block.answer.2: ! Undefined control sequence l.1 \myanswer [Q:test] <empty file> Would you please tell me how to avoid such an error? It seems to me that you don’t have an error. I am running minimal(beta) in OSX. Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

Dear Otared, It is not the problem of your code. Strangely, the code you just sent to me is stopped by the same reason during the compilation even though it does not contain the word “myanswer”. After removing *.tmc file, the error disappear. I still don’t know why such an error occurred. Anyway, I got a nice sample which is very useful. Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

Error while trying to generate font database
by Sergey 06 Nov '16

06 Nov '16

Hi all, I've updated today my version of context (rsync route, following information on contextgarden). After performing the update I wanted to generate the font database following instructions on http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Fonts_in_LuaTeX. The following error emerged: ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/font-otr.lua:102: attempt to index local 'streamreader' (a nil value) I run FreeBSD 11-CURRENT. Any clues as to what might cause the error message? Regards, Sergey

Clickable question/answer numbers
by Mikael P. Sundqvist 06 Nov '16

06 Nov '16

Dear list, I have a pretty large text with a lot of questions and answers, and want the user(students) to be able to click in the pdf to go from a certain exercise to its answer, and back. I have a solution (see below) to go from answers to questions, but not the other way around. I simply have no idea on how to make the red text (in the head) in the example question clickable with the answer on the next page as target. As you can see, the answer has a tag A:Q:test (I want to set these automatically in that manner), and clicking the green text I get to the correct place. I just don't see how to make the "Question 1.1" clickable with that target. I hope I make myself clear. If it matters, in the solution one could assume that the optional tag of the \startquestion \stopquestion is given for all questions. Best regards, Mikael %% qa.tex \setupinteraction[state=start,color=,contrastcolor=,style=] \defineblock[answer] \hideblocks[answer] \def\myanswer[#1]{\inleft{\in[#1]\reference[A:#1]{\in[#1]}}} \defineenumeration[question][ text=Question, headcolor=darkred, width=fit, number=yes, prefix=yes, prefixsegments=section, ] \starttext \section{A section with questions} \startquestion[Q:test] Solve this question! \stopquestion We could, however, click \color[darkyellow]{\in{Answer}[A:Q:test]}. \beginanswer \myanswer[Q:test] What question? The answer is \quotation{do it yourself}! \endanswer \page[yes] \subject{Answers} \useblocks[answer] \stoptext

floats in xtable flush with frame
by Michael Eidenbenz 05 Nov '16

05 Nov '16

Hello, I want to place floats in an xtable but cannot get rid of the gap between the float and the frame. I sort of can eliminate the gap on the top with \setupfloat [offset=-2.5pt] but this doesnt seem to be the right way. Is there a parameter to control this? Thanks Michael \showframe \starttext \startxtable \startxrow \startxcell \placefloat{}{\externalfigure[][width=\textwidth/2]} \stopxcell \startxcell \placefloat{}{\externalfigure[][width=\textwidth/2]} \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable \page \setupfloat [offset=-2.5pt] \startxtable \startxrow \startxcell \placefloat{}{\externalfigure[][width=\textwidth/2]} \stopxcell \startxcell \placefloat{}{\externalfigure[][width=\textwidth/2]} \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable \stoptext

I have updated the Vim page at ConTeXt Garden: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Vim It may be considered as the official documentation of the ConTeXt scripts in Vim, as the only other documentation is the source code :) Happy editing! Nicola

Influence enumeration spacing
by Jan Willem Flamma 05 Nov '16

05 Nov '16

Dear list members, In the MWE below the amount of vertical space between the enumeration header and the question text seems to fully controlled by the global \setupwhitespace[big] setting. I would like to reduce the distance beteen the enumeration header and the question text but inbetween={\blank[nowhite]} seems to be ignored. I tried none, disable etc. as well. Of course I could set \setupwhitespace[small] but this would influence the amount whitespace between my paragraph text which should be set to big. How can I minimize the inbetween distance without changing the spacing between paragraphs? \setupwhitespace[big] \defineblock[question] \keepblocks[question] \defineenumeration [question] [inbetween={\blank[nowhite]}] \starttext \input ward \input ward \beginquestion \startquestion Text text text \startitemize[a,packed] \item answer a \item answer b \stopitemize \stopquestion \endquestion \stoptext Kind regards Jan Willem Flamma
