First page after standardmakeup gets page number 0 in table of contents
by Mojca Miklavec 11 Jun '15

11 Jun '15

Hi, I'm experiencing a weird issue. The first page after standardmakeup ends up with page number zero in table of contents. Here's a minimal example: \setuphead [chapter] [page=odd] \setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided] \starttext \startstandardmakeup title page \stopstandardmakeup \chapter{first} \chapter{second} \title{TOC} \placelist[chapter,section][criterium=all,alternative=c] \stoptext This prints TOC 1 first .......... 0 2 second ......... 3 But the first chapter is on page 1. A temporary workaround was to prepare a separate document with the initial pages (and print them separately and merge the pages with an external tool), but it would be great to solve this properly. Thank you, Mojca

Hello, Is it possible to place a figure to the right in two column mode? I always get it centered for some reason. \setupexternalfigures[location={local,global,default}] \starttext \startcolumns[two] % doesn't work \startplacefigure[location={nonumber,right,high}] \externalfigure[cow][width=2cm] \stopplacefigure \input tufte \stopcolumns % works \startplacefigure[location={nonumber,right,high}] \externalfigure[cow][width=2cm] \stopplacefigure \input tufte \stoptext Thank you, Mojca

Wiki page on color
by Aditya Mahajan 11 Jun '15

11 Jun '15

Hi, I am doing a major overhaul of the wiki page on colors. The current page[1] had become tangled up with time and I think that it is better to reorganize the information. Since this is a major change, rather than simply editing the wiki page, I have created a new page[2]. Please take a look at both pages: [1]: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Color [2]: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Color/sandbox If you think that there is information on the original page that needs to go to the new page, move it there. After a few days, I'll move page [2] to page [1]. Aditya

Sourcemirror at gitorious is closing down, where to find it then?
by Norbert Melzer 10 Jun '15

10 Jun '15

Since gitorious got acquired by gitlab it will shut down its service end of May 2015 (https://about.gitlab.com/2015/03/03/gitlab-acquires-gitorious/) Where will ConTeXts source mirror be hosted then? Will it get transfered over to gitlab? Github? Bitbucket? Sourceforge? Somewhere else?

Asterisk
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 09 Jun '15

09 Jun '15

Hello, how to typeset "centerd asterisk" ("*") in Ctx? I mean the symbol which is used in the third level of itemization (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Enumerations) or which can be typeset by \textasteriskcentered in LaTeX. (I cannot find the symbol definition in Ctx itemize-command definition (source files) and simple writing "\textasteriskcentered" doesn't work.) Thank you in advance. Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

Gobbled spaces after \starttyping
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 07 Jun '15

Hello, suppose the following code: ---- \starttext \starttyping Aaa Bbb \stoptyping \stoptext ---- It produces: " Aaa Bbb " How to force ConTeXt not to gobble spaces after \setuptyping, to get: " Aaa Bbb " i.e. to obey two blanks " " before "Aaa"? Thank you in advance. Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

Re: [NTG-context] Multi-page (split) natural tables and footnotes

Solved: I can now use the usual \footnote{...} command and the footnote does not disappear. Unsolved: All the footnotes in the table still appear on the last page of a multi-page table instead of the actual page where they are written. To illustrate the latter problem I have a new MWE. The footnote mark in the first table row receives a footnote text on the second page - it should be on the first page. Does anybody have a solution to this? Is it not supported? (I have ConTeXt Version 2015.05.03 21:46) Thank you for any feedback, Christoph MWE: \starttext \startlocalfootnotes \placetable[split][]{}{ \bTABLE \bTR \bTD This \eTD \bTD That \footnote{This footnote should appear on page 1.} \eTD \eTR \dorecurse{50}{\bTR \bTD This \eTD \bTD That \eTD \eTR} \eTABLE} \placelocalfootnotes \stoplocalfootnotes \stoptext

Multi-page (split) natural tables and footnotes
by Christoph Reller 07 Jun '15

07 Jun '15

Hi, How can I get footnotes working with split tables? Is this not supported? The workaround with \note[...] \footnotetext[...]{...} can only be used to place footnotes on the first or on the last page of the table. For a long multi-page table this is not satisfactory. The wiki mentions using \automigrateinserts, but it has no effect here. Any help is welcome! Cheers, Christoph MWE: \automigrateinserts \starttext \placetable[split][]{}{ \bTABLE \bTR \bTD This \eTD \bTD That. \footnote{This footnote disappears.} \note[working] \eTD \eTR \eTABLE} \footnotetext[working]{This footnote works.} \stoptext

Difference between \startmakeup and \startstandardmakeup
by John Culleton 06 Jun '15

06 Jun '15

I have been using \startstandardmakeup etc. for some years now. I note on the wiki that there is a command \startmakeup also. It is not covered in my copy of the Manual. What are the principal diferences between the two? -- John Culleton Wexford Press Book layout, typesetting and Indexing Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html
