I tried to build on a previously compilable table generating context file, but can not do so now. Here is a simple example: I am getting a " ! Undefined control sequence Line #.20 which is ==> \bTABLEheader Do I have hidden bug in my script or did this change? I'd appreciate hellp of this. Thanks -------------------------- % start here \define\ROWCNT{5} \define\COLCNT{5} \starttext % \bTABLE[align={middle,lohi},width=20mm,height=10mm] \bTABLEheader \bTR \bTD \eTD \dorecurse{\COLCNT} { \bTH #1 \eTH } \eTR % col label cells % ... data cells ........... \eTABLEheader \bTABLEbody \dorecurse{\ROWCNT} { \bTR \bTD #1 \eTD % row label cells \dorecurse{\COLCNT} { \bTD \eTD } % data rows (use #1:##1 for r# : c#) \eTR } \eTABLEbody \eTABLE \stoptext % end of example

footnotes spanning margin and textwidth
by Brian R. Landy 16 Oct '15

16 Oct '15

Hi, is it possible to get the footnote area to span the full width of textwidth+margins? For example, in this layout I have a wide left margin and I’d like the footnotes to start at the left edge of the left margin rather than the left edge of the text area, but still extend to the right edge of the text area. \setuplayout[backspace=2.75in,cutspace=0.50in,leftmargin=2.25in,rightmargin=0.00in,width=middle,topspace=0.0in,header=0.88in,height=middle,footer=1.50in,location=middle] \starttext text\footnote{one} text\footnote{\input knuth} \stoptext Best regards, Brian

\startplacefloat [location=bottom]
by Alan BRASLAU 16 Oct '15

16 Oct '15

Hello, When placing floats, location=bottom will attempt to place the float at the bottom of the current page; if it will not fit, then it will be placed at the *top* of the following page. How can one specify that the float is be placed at the *bottom* of the subsequent page if there is not enough room for it to be placed at the bottom of the current page? MWE: \starttext \dorecurse{4}{\input knuth\par} \startplacetable [location=bottom] \input tufte \stopplacetable \dorecurse{2}{\input dawkins\par} \stoptext Alan

How to start a \definedescription-defined description's body on a new line, not the same as the description's header?
by Louis Strous 16 Oct '15

16 Oct '15

With [start sample] \definedescription[cmddescription][headstyle=bold,width=broad,style=normal,align=flushleft,alternative=hanging,margin=1cm] ... \startcmddescription{mycommand} This is a very useful command. It knows just what to do, and you don't even have to specify any options! \stopcmddescription [end sample] the text "This is a very useful command" begins on the same line as the "mycommand" header. I want the text to begin on the next line, so that "mycommand" is on a line of its own. How should I adjust the \definedescription command to achieve this? I've tried all kinds of things with the 'before', 'inbetween', 'after', 'indentnext', 'command', and 'headcommand' options of the \definedescription command (based on http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setupdescriptions) using \par, \crlf, and \vspace, but didn't get the desired results.

Without a minimal example I can only guess. What I can take from the error message is that you have a problem with the list mechanism. To try fixing the problem comment first a list settings where you apply your own commands (e.g. the pagecommand key) and when this doesn't help (don't forget to delete the tuc-file) you can comment the complete \setuplist setting.

Avoid double entries in ToC
by Henning Hraban Ramm 15 Oct '15

15 Oct '15

Hi, I got a very special case: In a booklet of forms, each form must appear twice, but only once in the ToC. At the moment, every form is a chapter in a component that I include twice. Do you have an idea how to get only the first identical entry in the ToC? Greetlings, Hraban --- http://www.fiee.net http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer)
