Documentation: full list of commands
by juh 09 Aug '15

09 Aug '15

Hello, even though the commands in the autogenerated command list (http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/qrcs/setup-en.pdf) are not commented the document is useful to me. In a MWE on this list I saw the command \doifoddpage which is not in the list. Wiki and even Google does not find anything about this command. I think that I kind of understand the command, but I wonder how many commands are out there I've never heard of. So my question: Is it possible to have a complete list of all commands used in ConTeXt? juh -- Software-Dokumentation mit Sphinx http://www.amazon.de/dp/1497448689/ Paperback: 224 Seiten

Can \getmarking take more than one argument?
by talazem＠fastmail.fm 09 Aug '15

09 Aug '15

Hello, I currently use the following to define my even and odd page headers. ————— \startsetups[header] {\doifoddpageelse {\getmarking[section]} {\getmarking[chapter]} } \doiftextelse {\getmarking[chapter]} \stopsetups ————— The problem is that some of my ‘section’s are not sections, but ‘subject’s (because I don’t want that section heading to appear in the TOC). As a result, my header is blank on the ‘subject’ pages. Is it possible to define getmarking to take either a section or a subject, somehow? Listing them both separated by a coma (\getmarking[section,subject]) produced no result. I also tried: ————— {\doifoddpageelse {\getmarking[section]} {\getmarking[subject]} {\getmarking[chapter]} ————— …but that caused the subject and the chapter to both be printed in the header. Many thanks for any help. Talal

Template for handling editorial content in a large book project
by Pavneet Arora 08 Aug '15

08 Aug '15

I am working on a large book project. What I need done in ConTeXt is something similar to what Boris presented at TUG 2015: http://tug.org/tug2015/abstracts/veytsman-access.txt In other words, the output should address different audiences. In my case, I want the full project to continue to contain editorial comments, or notes by the author. I am thinking of using both margin notes, and specially styled paragraphs (narrower, font change, etc.). Then depending on the target audience, reader or editor, the editorial comment could be included or not. Is there a recommended design pattern that I could use for this type of work? advTHANKSance. -- ---- Pavneet Arora m: 647.406.6843 Waroc Informatik t: 416.937.9276

Dear Wolfgang, > You have to use \starthanging instead of \placefgure when you’re in a frame. > > \starttext > > \startframedtext[width=max] > \starthanging[location=right] > {\startMPcode > draw unitsquare scaled 2cm ; > \stopMPcode} > \input tufte > \stophanging > \stopframedtext > > \stoptext > > Wolfgang Thank you for letting me know the command “starthanging”. I tried the command “\startfiguretext … \stopfiguretext”, and found that there is no text below the square. \startframedtext[width=\textwidth]{ \startfiguretext[right,none]{}{% \startMPcode draw unitsquare scaled 2cm ; \stopMPcode} \input knuth \stopfiguretext} \stopframedtext Your example worked fine, but if we replace tufte by knuth, then text is written over the square while the tufte’s text was witten surround the square. Is it expected result? Thank you again. Best regards, Dalyoung

Finding the correct name of font to use with \definefontamily
by Pavneet Arora 08 Aug '15

I am trying to use the font family Novecento Wide, but cannot seem to get it to work. I suspect that it is in the name that I am attempting, although I have tried all the names that I can come up with: Novecento, Novecento Wide, Novecentowide Light, etc. >>>> MWE \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][TeX Gyre Pagella] \definefontfamily[mainface][ss][Novecentowide] \definefontfamily[mainface][mm][TeX Gyre Pagella Math] \setupbodyfont[mainface,9pt] \setupwhitespace[medium] \starttext \input lorem \ss\input lorem \stoptext <<<< Here is the relevant line from the output showing that Novecento is *not* loaded; mkiv lua stats > loaded fonts: 2 files: texgyrepagella-math.otf, texgyrepagella-regular.otf Firstly, is the font name really the problem, or is it something else?

Hi again, I'm trying to define a cover image for my ePub using the documented „firstpage“ setting of \setupexport.

Hi, In http://www.tomsguide.com/us/amazon-kindle-paperwhite,review-2967.html I read under "Advanced Typesetting" ... improved character placement and spacing, with advanced kerning and ligatures ...books with this enhanced typesetting are not easy to find which makes me wonder: how can an html file (just a char stream) determine in an epub that kerning/ligaturing is disabled By default? (I can imagine a css enabling something but still ...)
