placed tabulations broken when ended with \HL in MkIV
by John Devereux 27 Sep '16

27 Sep '16

Hi, I updated my context (IV) installation recently and most of my tabulations are not working when they are placed with \placetable. Even the examples on the wiki do not work e.g. this aborts with an undefined control sequence error for the \stoptabulate: \starttext This is a very long text, longer than the width of the table. It must be long enough to flow to the next line to see the effect. \startplacetable[location=force,number=no] \starttabulate[|r|l|] \HL \NC I want this table \NC aligned in the center.\NC\NR \HL \stoptabulate \stopplacetable \stoptext I traced it to ending with a \HL. It can be made to work if I add an extra \AR after the final \HL Thanks, John -- John Devereux

Tabulation in itemize list
by Florian Leupold 27 Sep '16

27 Sep '16

Dear list, is there a clever way to put a tabulation into an itemize list? I would like to have it on the first line of an item, see MWE. However, when I just insert the tabulation after \item, the table is shifted down. A naive fix using \blank[overlay], on the other hand, places the tabulation too high. Could you help me or indicate a better solution to achieve this? \starttext \startitemize \item %\blank[overlay]\blank[overlay] \starttabulate[|r|p|r|p|] \NC given: \NC $a=1$\\$b=2$ \NC sought: \NC $c$ \NC\NR \stoptabulate \stopitemize \stoptext Thanks a lot and best regards, Florian

Dear list, In the MWE below, the line with \setuphead[chapter][before={\blank[3*line,force]}] disrupts the grid typesetting in the first page. What am I missing? \setuplayout[grid=yes] \showgrid \setuphead[chapter][before={\blank[3*line,force]}] \starttext \startchapter[title={Chapter}] \dorecurse{7}{\input tufte} \stopchapter \stoptext

text–formula separation inside a frame
by Florian Leupold 25 Sep '16

25 Sep '16

Dear list, I have got a problem with spacing before a formula inside a frame. The text–formula separation somehow is bigger when it occurs in a frame (see MWE below). Is there an explanation, and/or (even better) a possible fix? Thanks a lot! Florian MWE: \defineframed[Framed][width=\textwidth, height=5cm, align=normal] \starttext This formula is preceded by normal spacing: \placeformula[-]\startformula 1+1=2 \stopformula \Framed{ This formula somehow is preceded by too much spacing: \placeformula[-]\startformula 1+1=2 \stopformula } \stoptext

page range reference (how to compare references)
by MF 23 Sep '16

23 Sep '16

Hello list, I'm trying to reference a page range (think of a long quote spanning on 2 pages). I need to discriminate ranges collapsing to one page from "real" ranges (2 or more pages): "1-1" should become "1", while "1-2" should stay like that. Here's a not working snippet: \starttext Tufte quote at p. \at[tufte:start]\doifelse{\ref[realpage][tufte:start]}{\ref[realpage][t ufte:stop]} {} {-\at[tufte:stop]} % start of quote reference \pagereference[tufte:start] \input{tufte} %\page % comment/uncomment this to toggle from range to single page \input{tufte} % end of quote reference \pagereference[tufte:stop] \stoptext The \doifelse is always false, I think because \ref[realpage][...] is not a string. Thanks in advance. BTW, best wishes for next week's meeting (hoping to join next year). Best regards, Massi
