Hi Morgan,
On Jan 21, 2008 2:02 PM,
Hi,
I'm very new to ConTeXt and I've got some (probably naive) questions about indenting.
1. According to the ConTeXt Excursion, using \setupindenting[medium] should lead to indented paragraph. And actually, at least for me, it doesn't... I saw examples on the wiki with \setupindenting[yes,medium]: this actually works, but the 'yes' option is not documented for the \setupindenting command on texshow. What am I missing here? Is the \indenting command needed even to indent the whole document? It is not what I understood from the Excursion...
The manuals are a little bit outdated and not every new feature and change in the setup is documented.
2. I have not been able to indent the first paragraph after a \section (or any other titling) command. Isn't it the role of the 'first' option for \setupindenting? Is a trick needed to have it work?
This is a feature, because the first paragraph after a section shouldn't be intended by default, you could change this with the following setups. a. You want to enable indenting only for section commands. \setuphead[section][indentnext=yes] b. You want to enable indenting for all headers \setupheads[indentnext=yes]
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Morgan
\setupindenting[medium,first] \starttext
This paragraph is not indented. It becomes indented when I add the (undocumented?) 'yes' option to \setupindenting.
\section{A section}
How to get this one indented (in the whole document)?
\stoptext
