Btw, there is no such an option mentioned in the WIKI or user guide... http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/placefigure But I'd like to add: (1) caption=none renders 'none' instead of nothing... (2) when key=none is combined, e.g. [none, page], the numbering is suppressed, but the second option is ignored. But [page, none] works fine. The order matters. It is same for [page, nonumber]. It would be nice to fix those examples in Wiki or if MkIV behaves differently, add an appropriate alternative there. Thanks, Jan

Keeping titles together with the following text when grid is on
by Jan Tosovsky 30 Nov '13

30 Nov '13

Dear All, when grid is on, orphan and widows have to be eliminated using additional penalty settings. Whereas it works fine for body text, section titles are still sometimes left at the bottom of the page. It can be reproduced using this example: \setuppapersize[B5] \startsetups[grid][mypenalties] \setdefaultpenalties \setpenalties\widowpenalties{2}{10000} \setpenalties\clubpenalties {2}{10000} \stopsetups %comment the following line to see the difference \setuplayout[grid=yes, setups=mypenalties] \showgrid \starttext \blank[force, 9.5cm] \input tufte \section{Tufte} \input tufte \stoptext Is there any extra option for handling this? Thanks, Jan

Duplexing a single-sided layout?
by Adam Khan 30 Nov '13

30 Nov '13

I have a document in which left and right cannot be equated with inner and outer respectively (outside the header texts). So I use \setuppagenumbering[alternative={singlesided,doublesided}]. But I still need a gutter along (what would be) the inner margin. So, how would I go about duplexing a single-sided layout? For example: \definepapersize[custom][width=335mm,height=500mm] \setuppapersize[custom][B3] \setuplayout[% width=middle,% height=middle,% backspace=90mm,% topspace=25mm,% leftmargin=30mm,% rightmargin=15mm,% leftmargindistance=5mm,% rightmargindistance=20mm,% location={doublesided,duplex},% bottomspace=25mm,% cutspace=90mm] \setuppagenumbering[alternative={singlesided,doublesided}] Sincerely yours, Adam Khan

[***SPAM***] Provide showgrid as a PDF layer
by Jan Tosovsky 30 Nov '13

30 Nov '13

Dear All, it would be nice to have a possibility to interactively disable/enable a grid rendered via \showgrid command. Whereas this grid is helpful for debugging, it disturbs when the page is evaluated as the whole. Using layers could make this process more efficient (not requiring to generate both variants). I've noticed something like this is already implemented for the body area (visualizer vbox layer). Or is there any option for this already? Thanks, Jan

bibliography - maybeyear
by Alan Braslau 29 Nov '13

29 Nov '13

Hello, Using \setuppublications [alternative=num] for example, should not append letters to the publication years when encountering multiple publications by the same author(s) per year. So, in the use of bibliographies, I have not understood how to control \maybeyear. In the bibl-xxx.tex files, it is defined as \def\maybeyear#1{#1} or \def\maybeyear#1{} as needed. Perhaps this is for mkii. In bibl-bib.mkiv, one has \appendtoks \doifelse{\bibtexpublicationsparameter\c!maybeyear}\v!off {\let\maybeyear\gobbleoneargument} {\let\maybeyear\firstofoneargument}% \to \everysetupbibtexlistplacement which seems to then use the keyword maybeyear. I guess that \setupbibtexpublications [maybeyear=off] in my source would turn off the appended letters, but this is not correct. I have tried many variants (\setuppublications, \setupbibtex). What am I misunderstanding? Or is this a bug? Alan
