chapter numbering
by Meer, Hans van der 08 Oct '15

08 Oct '15

The reference manual explains that one can set individual numbers on a chapter: \setuphead[subsection][ownnumber=yes] \subsection{399}{The old number} So I tried \setuphead[chapter][ownnumber=yes] but then I am in the dark how to use this. The reference manual (september 2013 -- latest?) was of no help because it does treat \chapter but not yet explains \startchapter. Neither did the ConTeXt Commands (July 2015 version) offer me I clue. I tried \startchapter[number=6] but this doesn't work. How to? Hans van der Meer

Re: [NTG-context] \reference and \setupinteraction[focus=...] not working
by Christoph Reller 08 Oct '15

08 Oct '15

Hi everybody, An even more minimal example \setupinteraction[state=start,focus=standard] % <- defect %\setupinteraction[state=start, focus=fit] % <- works \starttext \reference[tuf]{Tufte} \input tufte \page \about[tuf]. \stoptext The resulting PDF has an annotation that points to a named destination "(tuf)". But "Names" in the PDF root contains then key "(#1)" and a correct destination as value. It is only the key in the Names tree that is wrong. Unfortunately, I cannot locate the code where this is written (maybe strc-ref.lua?). Any help is welcome.

Hi all, I tried to setup itemization on three levels. However I do not get the desired result. The setup does not make level one numbered, level two a-b-c and level three with center-dot. What am I missing?

Forms and JavaScript
by Henning Hraban Ramm 07 Oct '15

07 Oct '15

Hello, while trying to create some interactive forms using latest beta (MkIV), I found that JavaScripts are only then copied into the PDF, if there’s a \goto referencing a JS function. According to the old widgets manual I thought I could set default values of fields calling JS functions or variables as [JS(MyFunc)], but that doesn’t work. \starttext \setupinteraction [state=start] \startJSpreamble{formtest} % this JS code is only copied to the PDF if the \goto below is uncommented! var d = new Date(); var df = this.getField("Datum"); var CurDate = util.printd("dd.mm.yyyy", d); df.value = CurDate; function toggleField(){ var f = this.getField("Datum"); f.display = ! f.display; } \stopJSpreamble %\goto{toggle}[JS(toggleField)] \blank \setupfield[MMshortString][reset,horizontal][height=5mm, width=50mm, frame=off, bottomframe=on] \definefield[Datum][line][MMshortString][][JS(CurDate)] % JS(CurDate) ends up verbatim in the field Date: \field[Datum] \stoptext Greetlings, Hraban --- http://www.fiee.net http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer)

This works only with method=dataset in current context. In beta the method=local works, but then \btxfield is broken for the :cite setups Is there a workaround or is this temporaily broken?

reading attribute from ancestor element in XML
by massifr＠fastwebnet.it 06 Oct '15

06 Oct '15

Hello list, I have an XML fragment like this: <div id="myid"> <p><sup>12</sup> blah blah...</p> </div> In the typeset text I want to substitute the text of the sup element ("12") with the id ("myid") in its div grandfather. The xmlsetup associated to the sup element looks like this: \startxmlsetups xml:sup \xmlatt{\xmlfirst{#1}{../..}}{id} \stopxmlsetups This gives an error (TeX capacity exceeded). I'm using ConTeXt version 2015.06.15. I've tried \xmlfilter and \xmlall too, with different lpaths. Sometimes ConTeXt ends without errors, but I've never managed to get the text of that attribute. What's the right way to backtrack to parent and ancestor nodes?
