Re: [NTG-context] Alignment problem with labels and textext

It seems, that my ConTeXt installation was broken in this point. A complete new installation of the standalone heped. Sorry for the noise. 2013/2/13 Lutz Haseloff

It seems to me, that the label.xx mechanism is completely broken. the results of label, label.rt and label.lft are exactly the same if i set labeloffset := 0bp ; (default is 3bp)

Hi Lutz,

Just updated, to make sure I have the latest.

I see the problems. top & bottom labels are not centered correctly bottom label not low enough left and right labels are not aligned at the same height

Sorry, no ansers.

regards Keith.

Hi Keith,

following testfile perhaps describes my problem better:

\starttext \startMPpage drawdot (origin); label.rt (textext("right") , origin) ; label.top (textext("top") , origin) ; label.lft (textext("left") , origin) ; label.bot (textext("bottom") , origin) ; \stopMPpage \stoptext

If i run it by texexec(mkii), all is ok, with context(mkiv) the labels overlap.

I try to add the problematic mkiv pdf.

Greetings Lutz

Hi Lutz,

With This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.74.0-2012122517 (rev 4541) ConTeXt ver: 2013.02.05 22:32 MKIV fmt: 2013.2.9 int: english/english

Things look fine. Actually, without textext the left and right seem to be aligned on the baseline. Where with textext it is aligned in the middle of the text, which I find to be the correct way.

regards Keith
