Experiments with \doloopoverlist

Hello List. I've been trying to typeset a somewhat complex list of authors for several articles and a book. My proof of concept seems to work fine, however, I know I am doing weird things that I think could probably be done in a better way. I'm using datasets and a recursion, kind of hacky but I can't find a better way of handling it. Specifically I would like to know: 1. Is there a way of getting the length of a filled dataset? (how many entries it contains) 2. Is it OK to use \startuserdata \stopuserdata without its inlineuserdata? Is there an alternative that does not require inlineuserdata? %%%%%%%%%% MWE: \setupinteraction[state=start] \define[2]\imghref{\bgroup\goto{#1}[url(#2)]\egroup} \defineexternalfigure[logo][height=1em] \definedataset[autores] \setdataset[autores][ nombre={Angie Natalia Farfán Acevedo}, cvlac={ https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do… }, orcid={https://orcid.org/0009-0007-0765-4241}, gscholar={ https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=GpYTTU0AAAAJ&hl=es&authuser=1}, ] \setdataset[autores][ nombre={Ivon Andrea Rodríguez Román} cvlac={ https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do… } orcid={https://orcid.org/0009-0001-1183-6829} gscholar={https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=iz8SQNcAAAAJ&hl=es} ] \setdataset[autores][ nombre={Angie Caterin Garzón González} cvlac={ https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do… } orcid={https://orcid.org/0009-0009-0990-6902} gscholar={ https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=list_works&hl=es&user=5WqcOeEA… } ] \setdataset[autores][ nombre={Heidy Paola Veira Tenorio} cvlac={ https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do… } orcid={https://orcid.org/0009-0008-4076-7317} gscholar={ https://scholar.google.es/citations?view_op=new_profile&hl=es&authuser=1} ] \setdataset[autores][ nombre={Yerly Lorena Diaz Aldana} cvlac={ https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do… } orcid={https://orcid.org/0009-0008-1720-4057} gscholar={ https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&user=0obyCwkAAAAJ&view_op=list_w… } ] \defineuserdataalternative[idautor][renderingsetup=userdata:idautor] \startsetups[userdata:idautor] \dontleavehmode \imghref {\externalfigure[cvlac.pdf][logo]} {\userdataparameter{cvlac}} \quad \imghref {\externalfigure[orcid.pdf][logo]} {\userdataparameter{orcid}} \quad \imghref {\externalfigure[gscholar.pdf][logo]} {\userdataparameter{gscholar}} \quad \userdataparameter{author}\par \stopsetups \defineuserdata[idautor][alternative=idautor] \startdocument % I have to manually set the length of the dataset in the loop and use recurselevel... % Maybe there is a way to use the length of the "autores" dataset? and use indexes? \dorecurse{5}{ \startuserdata[idautor][ author={\datasetvariable{autores}{\recurselevel}{nombre}}, cvlac={\datasetvariable{autores}{\recurselevel}{cvlac}}, orcid={\datasetvariable{autores}{\recurselevel}{orcid}}, gscholar={\datasetvariable{autores}{\recurselevel}{gscholar}}, ]\stopuserdata % My "inlineuserdata" is empty... no idea if this is OK... } \stopdocument %%%%%%%%%% END MWE Thank you in advance. -- 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.

disable header for endnotes
by jbf 16 Aug '23

16 Aug '23

I wonder if someone might be able to help me with this. I have a book in three parts and the author wants endnotes. No problem. I can produce those with \setupfootnotes[location=text] and then \placefootnotes. However, I would like the header to read 'Notes' on the recto page (or indeed be blank with no header), but I am currently getting the header that belongs to the main setup for headers, which happens to be: \startsetups[middle] \hfill \getmarking[section] \hfill \stopsetups \setupheadertexts [{\hfill\documentvariable{metadata:title}\hfill}][] [\setups{middle}][] How do I deal with the \placefootnotes command so that it ignores this and either gives me no header, or perhaps a new header with 'Notes' in place of [section] (which is achieved in centered position with setups[middle])? Julian

[ odd spacing ]

Placing identical images in a n x m grid shows extra space every two rows. Also the vertical and horizontal spaces are different. There is probably a reason for this to happen, but how to avoid it ? .Floris [MWE] \starttext \startTEXpage[offset=10mm, pagestate=start] \startcombination[nx=3, ny=5] \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \startcontent\externalfigure[p1-4_4-01-56-25-015.png][height=.2\textwidth,width=.2\textwidth]\stopcontent \stopcombination \stopTEXpage \stoptext [/MWE]

itemize
by Hans Hagen 15 Aug '23

Hi, There has been some additions to itemize wrt columns. One problem with columns is that we have a 'cross page' and 'balancing' situation. The existing columns features has been improved a bit. That leaves the problem that mixing single and multi columns is not really tex's strong point. So, when Mikael and I were looking at one of his documents that mixes a lot of math into itemized situations, a different variant was made (ok, there was another reason but that's a bit technical). At that time, I had already adapted itemize to work a bit better with bTABLE and starttabulate (nesting, trial mode etc), think of \bTABLE \bTR \bTD \startitemize[a] \startitem \im{\sqrt{\frac{1}{x^4}}} \stopitem \startitem \startitemize[n] \startitem \im{\sqrt{\frac{1}{x^4}}} \stopitem \startitem \im{\sqrt{\frac{1}{x^4}}} \stopitem \stopitemize \stopitem \startitem \im{\sqrt{\frac{1}{x^4}}} \stopitem \stopitemize \eTD \eTR \eTABLE or with tabulate \startitemize[n] \starttabulate[||k2|] \NC \startitem test \stopitem \NC \startitem test \stopitem \NC \NR \NC \startitem test \stopitem \NC \startitem test \stopitem \NC \NR \stoptabulate \stopitemize so basically inside these tables items can be dealt with. Don't wonder too much how this translates into structure. So, back the columns, a logical next step was to add tabulated columns to itemize: \startitemizetable[n,four] \dorecurse{10}{ \startitem \im{\sqrt{\frac{1}{x^4}}} \stopitem \startitem \im{\sqrt{x^5}} \stopitem \startitem \im{\frac{x^5}{x^5}} \stopitem } \stopitemizetable or with \defineitemgroup[xxxx] because every itemgroup also gets an additional pair of commands defined. \startxxxxtable[n,four][inbetween={\blank[big]}] \dorecurse{10}{ \startitem \im{\sqrt{1/x}} \stopitem \startitem \im{\sqrt{\frac{2}{x}}} \stopitem \startitem \im{\frac{3}{x}} \stopitem } \startitem \im{\sqrt{\frac{1}{x^4}}} \stopitem \startitem \im{\sqrt{x^5}} \stopitem \stopxxxxtable etc etc. The distance can be set with columndistance and vertical spacing with inbetween. This kind of columnizing has the advantage that esp with math that has different heights all aligns rather well. A limitation is that we number horizontally but that actually makes sense when we cross pages (I might cook up a transposed numbering but it's not entirely trivial). The first one who uses this other than Mikael is invited to wikify it. Hans ps. The page columns also have some improvements but that's for next month. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
