Hi, I'm going to upload a new beta but this one needs luatex 0.87 which is in the process of being released. So, don't update unless you knwo that your platform binary is provided (or just keep your old tree as backup).

Problem with first setup of StandAlone ConTeXt
by Boghosian, Bruce 17 Dec '15

17 Dec '15

Dear ntg-context(a)ntg.nl <mailto:ntg-context@ntg.nl>: I am new to ConTeXt, so if this is not a very good question, please accept my apologies in advance. I first tried sending this message to the help address at contextgarden.net <http://contextgarden.net/>, and the reply I received suggested that this list would be the more appropriate venue. I am trying to install ConTeXt on my Mac, and am following the StandAlone ConTeXt instructions on the page: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Mac_Installation#Installing_MacTeX <http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Mac_Installation#Installing_MacTeX> I installed MacTeX without problem, and then tried to follow the instructions for Standalone ConTeXt. At the end of Section 3.2 on that page, when I tried to execute the command: > sh ./first-setup.sh --modules=all --engine=luatex it ran for a minute or so, but ultimately gave me the error message copied below. > This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.85.0 (TeX Live 2016/dev) (rev 5550) (INITEX) > system commands enabled. > (/sw/share/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/cont-en.mkiv (/sw/share/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/context.mkiv (/sw/share/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/syst-ini.mkiv > ! Undefined control sequence. > l.842 \pdfminorversion > \plusfive > ? It seems that I am missing some kind of software prerequisite, but I am really not sure. Any suggestions you might have for getting around this problem would be very much appreciated. Sincerely, Bruce Boghosian Bruce M.

Re: [NTG-context] Unexpected float numbering in unnumbered subsubsection
by Sytse Knypstra 16 Dec '15

Dear list members, I experienced even more issues with specifying 'number=no' in \setuphead (for any level). This seems not only to affect the numbering of figures and tables, but also the numbering of enumerations (it ignores the options 'way=bychapter, prefix=chapter') and the section numbering ('1.0', '2.0', etc) in \setupheadertexts [\somenamedheadnumber{section}{current}][...etc].

Protrusion and \scale
by Marc Trius 15 Dec '15

15 Dec '15

Hello, I'm using \scale to scale up a headline to the width of the entire paragraph, like so: \definefontfeature [default] [default] [protrusion=quality,expansion=quality] \def\scaleHead#1% {\scale[width=\textwidth]{#1}} \setuphead[subject] [textcommand=\scaleHead] \starttext \subject{Call me Ishmael.} Some years ago—never mind how long precisely—having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a little and see the watery part of the world. It is a way I have of driving off the spleen and regulating the circulation. \stoptext My problem is that I would like the period at the end of the first line to hang, the same way I would get in the text body, and I can't figure out how. What would be the correct way to accomplish this? Thank you, Marc Trius

Unexpected float numbering in unnumbered subsubsection
by Jan Willem Flamma 15 Dec '15

15 Dec '15

Dear list members, I ran into the following issue related to figure/float numbering. I use numbered chapters, sections, subsections and unnumbered subsubsections. See minimal example below. Figure numbering works as expected in the numbered chapters, sections and subsections. Figures get numbered: Figure 1.1 The figure numbering is unexpected in the unnumbered sub subsection: Figures get numbered: Figure 2 (in stead of the expected Figure 1.2) I would like all figures (and floats) to be numbered in sequence according the chapter numbering: Chapter 1: Figure 1.1, Figure 1.2, Table 1.3, Figure 1.4, etc Chapter 2: Figure 2.1, Figure 2.2 etc I've tried several \setupcaptions options but was unable to solve so far. Everything works as expected when using a numbered subsubsection so the problem is somehow related to the number=no option Minimal example: \setuphead[chapter, section, subsection] \setuphead[subsubsection] [number=no] \starttext \startchapter[title=Chapter title] \input ward \startsection[title=Section title1] \input ward \placefigure[here][]{Caption} {\externalfigure[dummy]} \startsubsubsection[title=Subsubsection title] \input ward \placefigure[here][]{Caption} {\externalfigure[dummy]} \stopsubsubsection \stopsection \startsection[title=Section title2] \input ward \placefigure[here][]{Caption} {\externalfigure[dummy]} \stopsection \stopchapter \stoptext Would appreciated some advise on how to solve this. Best regards, Jan Willem Flamma

has the bidi mechanism been changed?
by talazem＠fastmail.fm 14 Dec '15

14 Dec '15

Has the bidi mechanism (method=one, or method=two, etc.) been changed or redefined? My RTL brackets and numbers are being inverted. As of the beta operative in September 2015, these were working. In the present beta, it reads: While it should read (notice the ordering of the numbers as well as the direction of the parentheses): Kind regards, Talal
