So, I showed ConTeXt to a friend of mine. He said he wanted to try it and now -- well, you don't want to know how he swears :). We're trying to do a presentation...
Anyways, I'm trying to help him... But I (we) have some problems:
I managed to write something like this (it's never been so hard to write a newline!):
#v+ \startsetups{myhead} \vbox{% \getmarking[sectionnumber]\crlf\getmarking[section]\par \hskip12pt\getmarking[subsectionnumber]\crlf\getmarking[subsection]} \stopsetups
\setupheadertexts[] \setupheadertexts[\setups{myhead}][pagenumber] #v-
That does, what it should: display section and subsection atop of each other. So, but now, he wants to have an "Introduction", which should show up in the header but without a number. I tried "\subject" but "\getmarking[section]" only returns the section, not the subject (I thought they were interlinked somehow, but...). So, is there any way to do this apart from "\ifx\getmarking[sectionnumber]{-1}" or so?
\startfrontmatter \section{...} \stopfrontmatter will provide a mark but not number; so ... provide extra structure
Next question: is it possbible to align the text of, well, "text", i.e. the body text, vertically centered on every page? "\setupbackgrounds" won't work here. On a side note: why does it have an align-parameter, then?
because it inherits from \framed \setupmakeup[standard][headerstate=start,align=middle] \startstandardmakeup \input tufte \stopstandardmakeup
This one is "a bonus" for me: can someone point me in a direction where to start to build a "progress meter"? beamerstyle has a nice template where it shows the section as text and the subsections as open dots (all of them) with the current subsection as a filled dot.
Well, that would be all, thanks for listening,
