defining new entries for reference in letter module
by Jean-Francois Moulin 14 Jun '16

14 Jun '16

Hi! I am trying to create a custom reference line with the letter module. I would like for instance to display the typical phone and email fields and additionaly eg a not yet existing field such as mobile={12345} (or foo={bar}) At first I did not manage to have any field displayed at all but the use of setupletterlayer as described in https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2013/073560.html helped (seems the manual from 2010 is no longer up to date...). Unfortunately this writes the reference line with labels only for phone an email but not for mobile nor foo, The value of the parameter is writen though, so it seems I am half the way. This is what I use: \setupletter [phone={1234567890}, mobile={123456}, foo={bar}, email={taratata(a)toto.xi}] \setupletterlayer[reference][list={phone,mobile,foo,email}] Thanks a lot for any hint JFM

When I use \cite[Author:2016], the (Author, 2016) in the output is hyperlinked to the reference. But when I use \cite[Author1:2016,Author2:2015], the resulting (Author1, 2016 and Author2, 2015) is not hyperlinked. Is it possible to get hyperlinks in the latter case, too? Nicola

space between equations in mathalignment
by massifr＠fastwebnet.it 13 Jun '16

13 Jun '16

Hello list, is there a way to modify the space between equations in mathalignment? Something like \TB in tabulate would be great. In tabulate, \TB[-3mm] i.e. lets you shrink the vertical space between two rows. Aditya spoke about that here: http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context%40ntg.nl/msg34316.html and the answer seems to be "no". Working example: \starttext \startformula \startmathalignment[n=1] \NC v = u + at, \NR[+] \NC d = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2. \NR[+] \stopmathalignment \stopformula \stoptext Not working example (what I'd like) \starttext \startformula \startmathalignment[n=1] \NC v = u + at, \NR[+] \TB \NC d = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2. \NR[+] \stopmathalignment \stopformula \stoptext I've looked at math-ali.mkiv for a place to "inject" a \blank to modify the vertical space between rows. Is \math_alignment_NR_indeed the right place? Thanks, Massi

environment flushright
by Thomas A. Schmitz 13 Jun '16

13 Jun '16

Hi all, for a translation of poetry, I would like to have an environment which will typeset a split line in a way that the second part will be flushright - is this possible? So instead of bla bla bla bla bla I get bla bla bla bla bla if (and only if) there’s a line break. Thanks, and all best Thomas

Simple font size changes command
by josephcanedo＠gmail.com 13 Jun '16

13 Jun '16

Dear all, In a simple document using only 1 font but with different sizes what are the easiest switch commands to change font size locally ? I am aware of \tfa, \tfx etc …. but they do not seem to size in absolute size but rather relatively to current font size. In the following MWE : \starttext {\tfd Foo {\tfx Bar1}} {\tfx Bar2} Baz. \stoptext Bar1 is typeset much larger than Bar2. I’d look to write something like but don’t know who to get \BigSize and \SmallSize defined (and have Bar1 and Bar2 of same size) : {\BigSize Foo {\SmallSize Bar1}} {\SmallSize Bar2} Baz. Many thanks for any hint. Best regards Joseph Canedo

Math using sans serif font and problems with the alignment
by Freddy Omar López Quintero 10 Jun '16

10 Jun '16

Hello! Some days ago, I asked about how to use sans serifed font in all math document. My approach, given those answers, was create a little function to use the serif fonts in math (using \definestartstop) but, when there is some align involved, it produces an error :-\ . An example is the following: %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \definefontfamily [mainface] [ss] [Latin Modern Sans] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [mm] [Latin Modern Sans] [preset=math:digitsnormal] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [mm] [Latin Modern Sans] [preset=math:digitsbold] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [mm] [Latin Modern Sans] [preset=math:uppercasenormal] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [mm] [Latin Modern Sans] [preset=math:uppercaseitalic] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [mm] [Latin Modern Sans] [preset=math:uppercasebold] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [mm] [Latin Modern Sans] [preset=math:uppercasebolditalic] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [mm] [Latin Modern Sans] [preset=math:lowercasenormal] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [mm] [Latin Modern Sans] [preset=math:lowercaseitalic] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [mm] [Latin Modern Sans] [preset=math:lowercasebold] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [mm] [Latin Modern Sans] [preset=math:lowercasebolditalic] \definefontfamily [mainface] [mm] [Latin Modern Math] \definestartstop [formulass] [ before={\startformula \setupbodyfont[mainface]}, after=\stopformula ] \starttext abcdefg ABCDEFG 123456 i \startformula {\tf abcdefg\,ABCDEFG} \quad abcdefg\,ABCDEFG \quad 123456 \quad {\bf 123456} \stopformula % it works: \startformula Y=X\beta+\varepsilon \stopformula % it works: \startformulass Y=X\beta+\varepsilon \stopformulass % it doesn't work: \startformulass \startalign[n=4] \NC Y_t \NC = \beta_0 \NC + \beta_1 x_t \NC + \varepsilon_t \NR \NC Y_t \NC = \beta_0 \NC + \beta_1 x_t \NC + \varepsilon_t \NR \stopalign \stopformulass \stoptext %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Could you please give me some advices?

I have some additional information: 1. This error is also occurs when using the inline version: \placetable[split]{}{\bTABLE ... \eTABLE} 2.

Orphans and widows in Natural Tables
by Pavneet Arora 10 Jun '16

Related to my previous enquiry, I have the same issue with another part of the report card that uses Natural Tables. I'd like to keep two rows together as a unit, and not have the table split between them.

Specifying font style variant with \definefontfamily
by Pavneet Arora 09 Jun '16

09 Jun '16

I'm still a bit at a loss on how one goes about correctly specifying the variants in \definefontfamily using the default form given in the wiki. Usually adding "* Light", etc. is sufficient (see commented line using Junction font). (As an aside, is it also possible to combine \sc\bf? I haven't been able to figure that out). My application is using the (free) Andada font family, and I need to point the smallcaps style to the correct font (https://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/andada) In the following MWE I tried the following without success: 1. [sc=* SC Regular] 2. [sc=Andada SC Regular] 3. [sc=* SC-Regular] 4. [sc=Andada SC-Regular] All give the following (or similar) error to stdout: ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/font-sel.lua:121: attempt to index local 'file' (a nil value) stack traceback: ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/font-sel.lua:121: in function 'selectfont_savefile' ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/font-sel.lua:151: in function <...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/font-sel.lua:142> ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/font-sel.lua:526: in function 'registerfiles' ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/font-sel.lua:567: in function 'action1' [string "local function scan1()..."]:55: in function <[string "local function scan1()..."]:42> 1 \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Latin Modern] 2 >> \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Andada][sc=Andada SC Regular] I end up finally settling on the form using the explicit file: [sc=file:AndadaSC-Regular.otf], which does work. But I really would like to understand how the first form as given in the wiki should be used properly? What patterns should I be looking for? An output of 'strings' on the font .otf file yields: "... with Reserved Font Name 'Andada'Andada SCRegular" "AndadaSC-Regular" advTHANKSance. >>>> MWE \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Latin Modern] \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Andada][sc=Andada SC Regular] %\definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Andada][sc=file:AndadaSC-Regular.otf] %\definefontfamily[mainface][ss][Junction][tf=* Light,bf=* Regular] \definefontfamily[mainface][ss][Fira Sans] \definefontfamily[mainface][tt][Inconsolata] \definefontfamily[mainface][mm][Latin Modern Math] \setupbodyfont[mainface,9pt] \starttext \sc Test of Small Caps. \stoptext <<<< MWE -- Pavneet Arora m: +1 (647) 406-6843 Waroc Informatik t: +1 (416) 937-9276
