three long-standing issues
by Pablo Rodriguez 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

Hans, the following sample shows three long-standing issues with ConTeXt (I’m afraid they might be bugs): \definestructureconversionset[chapternumbers][0,I,a,n,g][n] \setupheads[sectionconversionset=chapternumbers] \setupsectionblock[bodypart][page=no] \setupheadertexts[chapter] \setupinteraction[state=start] \placebookmarks[chapter] \starttext \chapter{\TeX} \input knuth\par \startfrontmatter \dorecurse{5}{\chapter{Front matter} \input zapf\par} \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \dorecurse{5}{\chapter{Body matter} \input zapf\par} \stopbodymatter \stoptext 1. PDF bookmarks don’t contain Roman capital numerals (as I think they should). 2. \setupsectionblock[...][page=no] causes the last page in bodypart to have its header removed. 3. \chapter{\TeX} causes bookmarks from bodymatter to be located before bookmarks from frontmatter. I have tested this file against ConTeXt from TeX Live 2013 (2013.05.28 00:36), ConTeXt Suite stable (2014.01.03 00:40), and latest beta (2014.04.06 13:09). Except issue 3 and ConTeXt from TeX Live 2013, all three versions suffer from these issues. Could you fix these issues? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

The first step is tro to make for each of them a .bbl-file with, what I would call, a "bbl-generator.tex": ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ \setupbibtex[database=ps.bib,sort=author] %\setupbibtex[database=ss.bib,sort=author] \setuppublications[alternative=apa] %or any other style \starttext \stoptext ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This can be processed with mkii or mkiv. It generates a lot of auxiliary files, including an empty pdf, but the only important one is "bbl-generator.bbl", which you rename to ps.bbl or ss.bbl according to which of the two bib-files you used.(= did not comment out) The other files you need are two .tex-files with the complete set of \nocite[]'s of the two databases. Personally I never used \nocite{*}. If you use a Mac with BibDesk it is quite easy to make such a file. It gives you some extra flexibility. You can then generate the sectioned bibliography with: ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ \input(Your setups, including those for your Bibliography setup) \starttext \startchapter[bookmark=,label=,list=,marking=,reference=Bibliography,title={Bibliography} \section{Primary sources} \input ps.bbl \input ps-nocite.tex \placepublications[criterium=cite] \section{Secundary sources} \input ss.bbl \input ss-nocite.tex \placepublications[criterium=cite] \stopchapter \stoptext +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ That's all. I hope it works for you. Best regards, Robert Blackstone

[luatex-plain] disappearing math-on node
by Dohyun Kim 06 Apr '14

06 Apr '14

Hi, This is a bug report based on the issue discussed at https://github.com/lualatex/luaotfload/issues/212 \font\tenrm{file:lmroman10-regular.otf:mode=node;script=latn}\tenrm \setbox0\vbox{% x\penalty-10000 $a$x$a$ } \unvbox0 \setbox0\lastbox \unhbox0 \end The plain tex code shown above fails with a lua error: luatex-fonts-merged.lua:9616: attempt to index local 'current' (a nil value) My guess is: as math-on (math-off too) is a "discardable" item after a linebreak, the first math-on node has gone away. So the math-on/math-off pair has become broken, by which the behavior of "node.end_of_math" is confused. Regards, -- Dohyun Kim Seoul, Republic of Korea

page reference to figure fails when figure location is "none"
by Sanjoy Mahajan 06 Apr '14

06 Apr '14

Using a recent MkIV beta (2014.03.27), it seems that a page reference to a figure fails if the figure location is "none." Here is a minimal example: \starttext \input knuth \placefigure[none][regularref]{}{\pagereference[workaroundref] \externalfigure[cow.pdf]} \input knuth See \at{page}[workaroundref] or \at{page}[regularref] \stoptext The log file has references > unknown reference '[][regularref]' and the .pdf file has See page 1 or page ?? That is, the "\at{page}[regularref]" doesn't work. (But the workaround reference does work.) If the figure's location key is changed from "none" to "nonumber" or just deleted, then the regularref page reference works. It also works with MkII (with or without "none"), so I am guessing that it is a bug in MkIV. -Sanjoy

Multiple bibliographies (bib-module, mkiv)
by Peng Zhang 06 Apr '14

06 Apr '14

Dear all, I am searching for a solution where I can use two different sources of bib files separately. I found that the same question was asked before at this mail list. Since it was few years old, could I ask if there is any new work done towards it? Thanks! Peng http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2010/048290.html Hello, I need two bibliographies for my document, »Primary sources« and »Secondary sources«. Two bibliographies was created and loaded with \setupbibtex[database={prim,sec}]. But for the last step in my intention I’m looking for something to the effect that \placepublications[database=prim] or in a similar manner to \nocite{*} for every bib-database. Is there any solution or workaround? Thanks Markus

Possible bug: definetextbackground and grid layout
by Rik Kabel 05 Apr '14

05 Apr '14

The following example fails to compile, complaining "Missing { inserted." It compiles cleanly if one or more of the three marked lines are removed. This is the case with TL2013 and with recent standalone beta versions. I do not know if it ever worked. \setuplayout [grid=yes]% line one \definetextbackground[TB][ topoffset=.25em,bottomoffset=.25em,% line two location=paragraph,% line three ] \starttext \startTB prisca iuvent alios ego me nunc denique natum gratulor: haec aetas moribus apta meis. \stopTB \stoptext -- Rik

Line numbering in columns broken
by Jeremy Engel 05 Apr '14

05 Apr '14

In the latest beta (2014.04.03 16:20) there are updates to the line numbering system that break its function in columns. (In the past it didn't work at all in many situations, not it works but in a buggy way). In the example below, the line numbering passes over everything twice resulting in two overlapping numbers for each line. \starttext \startlinenumbering \startcolumns \input{knuth} \stopcolumns \stoplinenumbering \stoptext
