Changing font for math function
by Aditya Mahajan 11 May '15

11 May '15

Hi, There is a question on TeX.SX asking how to change the font of \sin, \cos, etc. http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/243893/323 I looked at the code, and there does not appear to be an easy solution. The \mathfunctionlabeltext command has \mathupright hard coded. One option is to keep this configurable using \setupmathematics, perhaps mfunction=(normal|italic|sans). In any case, I think that the current implementation is a bug. The default font for mathfunctionlabeltext should be typeset in the bodyfont. Aditya

optional lpaths to merge \xmlsetsetup?
by Pablo Rodriguez 11 May '15

11 May '15

Hans, many thanks for the explanation with \xmlsetup. I have one more question for today concerning lpaths. I have the following commands: \xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument} {span[@label]} {xml:logo} \xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument} {span[contains(@class,'tex\letterpercent-logo')]} {xml:tex:logo} Is there no way to merge both in one? (The basic rule a|b doesn’t seem to work here, altough I may be missing everything :-(.) Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

external figure sizing
by Csikos Bela 11 May '15

11 May '15

Hello list members: I would like to make a photo montage (4x3 images on one page) using \placefigure, \externalfigure and combinations. The images should be scaled to the same size, eg to .25\textwith and .3\textheight so that the aspect ratios of the images are kept and the appropriate value is used for width or height. That is the smaller value from .25\textwith and .3\textheight is used for the image size. Using only \useexternalfigure[Fig1][1.jpg][width=.25\textwidth] may not give the correct result if the image requires size adjustment by height and vice versa. Defining both width and height results in exact resizing and the aspect ratio is not maintained. How can this be solved? Thanks, bcsikos

understanding \xmlsetup
by Pablo Rodriguez 10 May '15

10 May '15

Dear list, to setup the language attribute in <div> and <span> elements from HTML, Hans kindly provided me with the following setup: \startxmlsetups xml:lang \begingroup \language[\xmlatt{#1}{lang}] \xmlsetup{#1}{xml:\xmltag{#1}} \endgroup \stopxmlsetups In order to be able to understand what \xmlsetup does, what would be the difference in replacing "\xmlsetup{#1}{xml:\xmltag{#1}}" with "\xmlflush{#1}" in the previous setup? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

question about \xmlconcat
by Pablo Rodriguez 10 May '15

10 May '15

Dear list, I have the following sample: \startbuffer[demo] <doc> <h1 id="#myspecialid">Document Title</h1> <h2 class="author">John Doe</h2> <h2 class="author">James Doe</h2> <h2 class="author">Jane Doe</h2> </doc> \stopbuffer \startxmlsetups xml:initialize \xmlsetsetup{#1}{doc|h1}{xml:*} \xmlsetsetup{#1} {h2[contains(@class,'author')]} {xml:document:author} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregistersetup{xml:initialize} \startxmlsetups xml:doc \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:h1 \title{\xmlflush{#1}} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:document:author \xmlconcat{#1}{/all()}{\\} \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \starttext \xmlprocessbuffer{main}{demo}{} \stoptext I have tried to use \xmlconcat in xml:document:author. I can’t get it working. What am I missing there? All I hwant is to have a between each h2[@class='author']. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

bug in xtables?
by Pablo Rodriguez 09 May '15

09 May '15

Dear list, the following sample shows a weird issue: \starttext \startbuffer[somextable] \startxtable[option=stretch, align=center] \startxrow \startxcell[width=.2\textwidth] a \stopxcell \startxcell b \stopxcell \startxcell c \stopxcell \startxcell[width=.2\textwidth] d \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable \stopbuffer \startxtable[option=stretch, align=center] \startxrow \startxcell a \stopxcell \startxcell b \stopxcell \startxcell c \stopxcell \startxcell d \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable This is the next paragraph. \getbuffer[somextable] This is the next paragraph. \stoptext If the width is specified for some xcells (but not all), extra blank space will be added after the xtable when got from a buffer. Isn’t it a bug? BTW, shouldn’t the xcells with no width specified be wider than the ones that have [width=.2\textwidth]? (I may be missing something, because I think the width for the xcells with no specified width should be .3\textwidth.) Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

issue with \doifdefined

09 May '15

Dear list, I have the following sample: \def\abcde{123} \starttext \doifdefinedelse{\abcd}{defined}{undefined} \stoptext \doifdefined crashes when the command isn’t defined. Sorry, but isn’t this command supposed to check whether the command is defined or not? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Newbie needs help getting started
by Johan Råde 09 May '15

09 May '15

Hi, I'm trying to get ConTeXt to run on my Windows machine (Windows 7 SP1). I already had MiKTeX installed on the machine. Here is what I did: 1. I downloaded context-setup-mswin.zip. 2. I unzipped and copied the folder to C:/context 3. I ran the command first-setup.bat --context=current --modules=all 4. I added C:\context\tex\texmf-win64\bin to my PATH variable 5. I opened up the example file at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Hello_world in TeXWorks 6. I selected ConTeXt(LuaTeX) 7. I compiled the file The compilation failed. The log says: mtx-context | warning: synctex is enabled mtx-context | run 1: luatex --fmt="C:/context/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f32e/formats/luatex/cont-en" --jobname="HelloWorld" --lua="C:/context/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f32e/formats/luatex/cont-en.lui" --no-parse-first-line --synctex=1 --c:currentrun=1 --c:fulljobname="./HelloWorld.tex" --c:input="./HelloWorld.tex" --c:kindofrun=1 --c:maxnofruns=8 --c:synctex "cont-yes.mkiv" This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.76.0-2013062820 (rev 4627) \write18 enabled. (Fatal format file error; I'm stymied) mtx-context | fatal error: return code: 1 What am I doing wrong? Thank you, Johan Råde

removing # in XML identifiers
by Pablo Rodriguez 08 May '15

08 May '15

Dear list, I have the following sample: \startbuffer[demo] <a href="#myspecialid">the previous section</a> \stopbuffer \startxmlsetups xml:initialize \xmlsetsetup{#1}{a}{xml:*} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregistersetup{xml:initialize} \startxmlsetups xml:a \ctxlua{context("\\xmlatt{#1}{href}")} \ctxlua{local originalid = "abcde";% doesn’t work with # tex.print(string.sub(originalid,2))} \stopxmlsetups \starttext \xmlprocessbuffer{main}{demo}{} \stoptext In both for some reason unknown to me, compilation crashes whe string.sub has an string with # inside. How could I get the following command working? \ctxlua{tex.print(string.sub(context("\\xmlatt{#1}{href}"),2))} Even if I remove # from the href attribute, compilation crashes. Sorry for asking this again, but which is the right way to do this? I have spent hours trying to find out how to do it, but I’m afraid this is beyond my knowledge. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Re: [NTG-context] Bibliography: printing just Single Author et al.
by Robert Blackstone 07 May '15

On 7 May 2015, at 12:00 , Mojca Miklavec <mojca.miklavec.lists(a)gmail.com> > > Is there any trick that would allow liming the number of listed > authors on per-article basis? Simply specifying > author = "Just Someone et al.", > ? > > (MkIV, experimental reimplementation.) Hello Mojca, The trick that I would use, in fact the procedure that I always use, is not to use bib-files but to separately generate the bbl-file and input that. ConTeXt uses the .bbl, and once you have that you can tweak it in (almost) any way you like. You could if necessary, make two or more versions of the same publication, for instance in a footnote “Just Someone et al.” and in the Bibliography the complete list of Authors of that publication. For my Bibliographic data I even needed three versions of each entry, one with authorname, to use your example, “Someone, Just” in the Bibliography, “Just Someone” for footnotes, the first occurrence, and “Someone” with a short book- or article title for all susequent occurrences. No problem when you use the .bbl. Obviously the different versions should have (slightly) diiferent cite-keys. (And take care not to input the .bib-file, since each time you process the thing a fresh .bbl is created wiping out all your modifications.) I hope it solves your problem. Best regards, Robert Blackstone
