Tabulate: lines bellow header
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 11 Jul '15

11 Jul '15

Hello, Let's have the following code: ---- \starttext \setuptabulate[header=repeat,split=yes] \starttabulatehead \HL \NC H \NC H \NC\NR \LL % \LL[8] causes error \stoptabulatehead \starttabulate[|l|l|] \dorecurse{50}{ \NC A \NC A \NC\NR \HL[8] } \stoptabulate \stoptext ---- It produces: 1) horizontal line bellow header, which is somewhat shifted down, closer to the first body row, but only on the 1st page; 2) horizontal line bellow header on page look differently from that on page 1 - its thickness if about a half of that between body rows, - and also its position is different from that on page 1. 3) Is there a way to affect thickness of the rule bellow header? \LL[8] causes error. I guess this is quite normal - to have a table header separated by a thicker rule, to have: ------------ table header ============ body row 1 ------------ body row 2 ------------ So: Ad 1: Is it possible to place the rule bellow the header to a "better" position? E.g. using a "more proper" command than \LL? Ad 2: Is it a Ctx feature or -- ? Ad 3: Any idea how to achieve this? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

Using lua to define a macro with one optional parameter in brackets
by Jaroslav Hajtmar 10 Jul '15

10 Jul '15

Hello ConTeXist. Within the one very complex problem I need to solve the following case. I want using lua code to define a macro with one optional parameter in brackets. I tried it using commands context.setgvalue, or find something on the wiki (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/System_Macros/Definitions_and_Assignments) but each time I broke a tooth on it. Can you, please, someone advise how something can be it done? Suffice some reference to solve a similar problem. Thanks Jaroslav Hajtmar Here is my minimal example: \starttext \def\lastname{\dosingleempty\dolastname} \def\dolastname[#1]{\iffirstargument #1\else nothing\fi} \lastname \lastname[Smith] % Not working % \ctxlua{ % context([[\def\firstname{\dosingleempty\dofirstname}]]) % context([[\def\dofirstname[#1]{\iffirstargument #1\else {nothing}\fi}]]) % } % % \firstname % % \firstname['Peter'] \stoptext

(announcement) from pandoc to ConTeXt
by Pablo Rodriguez 10 Jul '15

10 Jul '15

Dear list, this is a bit weird, because the vast majority of the list members are way forward in the path of ConTeXt knowledge than myself. But just in case you were interested, I created an environment to typeset XHTML generated by pandoc with ConTeXt MkIV. Here you have the websites: http://www.from-pandoc-to-context.tk https://github.com/ousia/from-pandoc-to-context Just in case it might help to anyone. Many thanks to Hans for his help explaining the XML interface to ConTeXt MkIV. Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Hidden section - weird counting?
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 09 Jul '15

09 Jul '15

Hello, let's have the following example with hidden section: ---- \definehead[HidSec][section] \setuphead[HidSec][placehead=hidden] \starttext \placecontent \hairline \HidSec{A} \subsection{B} \subsection{C} \stoptext ---- It gives: " 1.1 B 1 ------- 1.2 B 1.2 C " Whilst I'd expect: " 1.1 B 1 1.2 C 1 ------- 1.1 B 1.2 C " Is my idea wrong, i.e. is "hidden" attribute for \setuphead intended differently or ... ? (Compiled with today's beta.) Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

Beta problem with arranging XY
by Taco Hoekwater 09 Jul '15

09 Jul '15

Hi, It seems that the latest betas have a problem with the XY arrangement and/or \setuppaper. The attached file used to run fine, but lately all the placements are off (the address labels should be roughly centered on the A4 page). I am not sure how long ago this started going wrong, sorry (I often use a context installation from 2012 instead of the beta). Best wishes, Taco

The references.bookmarks.preroll directive works nicely. However, I still don't understand why in the above example \TEX is working. Can you shed any light on this? Regards, Christoph

rsync server down?
by Thomas A. Schmitz 09 Jul '15

09 Jul '15

Hi, for several days, I've seen errors while using first-setup.sh to upgrade to the latest version; the rysnc command fails because of server error. I tried on different computers and several networks, so I guess it's not just me but something is amiss there. Is it the heat? But the garden works normally... All best Thomas

Expansion in bookmarks
by Christoph Reller 08 Jul '15

Dear all! I want to define a command that is to be used in a section title. Also I want to use \autoinsertnextspace with this command. In the following MWE, why do \This and \AName not work, while \TEX does work? I appreciate any feedback, Christoph MWE: \setupinteraction[state=start] \setupinteractionscreen[option=bookmark] \placebookmarks[section][section] \def\What{This\autoinsertnextspace} \definesorting[Name] \setupsorting[Name][next=\autoinsertnextspace] \Name[AName]{Knuth} \usemodule[abr-01] \setupsorting[logo][next=\autoinsertnextspace] \starttext \startsection[title={\What is puzzling}]\stopsection \startsection[title={\AName is puzzling}]\stopsection \startsection[title={\TEX is puzzling}]\stopsection \stoptext

Math alignment
by Hans Aberg 07 Jul '15

07 Jul '15

The example below shows the intended output when using original TeX code (compiled with ‘context' of TeX Live 2015): a pair of left braced formulas. The first comment shows what works in AMS-LaTeX. However, when trying similar ConTeXt commands, I get the error shown in the comment below. What ConTeXt command might use here? --- \setupformulas[location=left] \starttext \def\equlb#1{\left\{\eqalign{#1}\right.} %equation left braced % AMS-LaTeX %\def\equlb#1{\left\{ \begin{aligned} #1 \end{aligned}\right.} % equation left braced % ConTeXt error: You can't use `\halign' in math mode. %\def\equlb#1{\left\{ \startalign #1 \stopalign\right.} %\def\equlb#1{\left\{ \startmathalignment #1 \stopmathalignment\right.} \startformula \placeformula[JcoordDef] J^j:\equlb{ω^0 &→ 0 \cr ω^j &→ 0} \quad \equlb{ω^k &→ ω^l \cr ω^l &→ -ω^k} \stopformula \stoptext ---

hyphenation exceptions?
by dr. Hans van der Meer 07 Jul '15

07 Jul '15

Has something happened to hyphenation? The following does not work \language[nl] \startexceptions[nl] Am-ster-dam \stopexceptions Neither does \hyphenation{Am-ster-dam} Only in the context-source Am\-ster\-dam is working. How to load a series of hyphenation exceptions instead of explicitely spelling out the breakpoints in the source? Hans van der Meer
