Table of contents, alternative d
Hi all, Am using the alternative d for my table of contents, i know how to align my elements left (from the left margin) but can't manage to do that at the right side (from the right margin). This is how i configure things: \definelist[part] \setuplist[part][before={\blank[big]},after=\blank] % \definelist[chapter] \setuplist[chapter][alternative=d,margin=2cm,left=(,right=),depth=2cm,before=\blank,after=\blank,style=Opulent] \placecontent[level=chapter] Any help .. Thanks. Dirar.
From the whole batch of answers i have received i could assume that there is no solution to this problem. Am trying to produce the same table of contents as the one for the "Context the manual". Hans, have you used your own alternative for that ?
Thanks in advance. Dirar.

i lost track a bit (been away a few days) .. can you summarize the problem and make a minimal file to patch Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

You could also conclude from the lack of answers that nobody feels to make a working example of what you wanted to achieve. You (and others, of course) can increase the chance of someone looking into your problem by creating a complete and minimal example of what you tried. It is of course not a guarantee to an answer, but let's say the least thing that a person seeking help should do. It is absolutely no use to publish only a few lines in case of a problem. What the problem-solvers want is code that they can cut and paste to their editor and run it. Then they look at the output and then at the code and sometimes they know where the problem is. One thing that a problem-solver will not want to do is fill in the missing parts of posted code like in a high school exam. I don't try to be smart here, it is just the fact how the community works.

Hi Dirar, As mentioned by Patrick, live would be easier to help, if you would provide a complete test-code ... % Table of contents Dirar Bougatef \setupoutput[pdftex] % \definelist[part] \setuplist[part][before={\blank[big]},after=\blank] % \definelist[chapter] \setuplist [chapter] [alternative=d, margin=2cm, left=(, right=), depth=2cm, before=\blank, after=\blank, style=bold] \starttext \placecontent[level=chapter] \part{Dirar - part 1} \dorecurse{3}{\chapter{Dirar - chapter}} \part{Dirar - part 2} \dorecurse{3}{\chapter{Dirar - chapter}} \stoptext Fisrt of alle you do do not need to redefine commands which are already defined within context (Commented rows above). Secondly, afaik the style option in the setuplist command has a predefined list of possibilities. So context will not understand "Opulent". Kind regards Willi Dirar BOUGATEF wrote:

Hi all, Great idea, i now have a working sample (What i want is to control the right margin distance for both parts and chapters - Here i can control only the left margin distance which is 1.7cm for chapters) \setupoutput[pdftex] \setuphead [part] [align=left,page=right,placehead=yes,before={\hbox{}\vfill},after={\vfill}] \setuphead [chapter][before=,after=\blank] \setuplist [chapter][alternative=d,margin=1.7cm,left=(,right=),pagestyle=slanted,depth=2cm,before=\blank,after=\blank] \setuplist [part] [before={\blank[big]},after=\blank] \starttext \placecontent \part{first part} \chapter{Chapter one} \chapter{Chapter two} \chapter{Chapter three} \chapter{Chapter four} \chapter{Chapter five} \part{second part} \chapter{Chapter one} \chapter{Chapter two} \chapter{Chapter three} \chapter{Chapter four} \chapter{Chapter five} \part{Third part} \chapter{Chapter one} \chapter{Chapter two} \chapter{Chapter three} \chapter{Chapter four} \chapter{Chapter five} \stoptext
Hello Dirar,
Great idea, i now have a working sample (What i want is to control the right margin distance for both parts and chapters - Here i can control only the left margin distance which is 1.7cm for chapters)
Where exactly do you want to control the distance? In the list? You know about the distance=... parameter? \setuplist [chapter] [alternative=d, margin=1.7cm, distance=2cm, left=(, right=), pagestyle=slanted, depth=2cm, before=\blank, after=\blank] Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki: http://contextgarden.net
Hi Patrick, This is how my toc appears: Part 1 first part 11 (1) Chapter one 12 (2) Chapter two 13 (3) Chapter three 14 (4) Chapter four 15 (5) Chapter five 16 Part 2 second part 21 (1) Chapter one 22 (2) Chapter two 23 (3) Chapter three 24 (4) Chapter four 25 (5) Chapter five 26 Part 3 Third part 31 (1) Chapter one 32 (2) Chapter two 33 (3) Chapter three 34 (4) Chapter four 35 (5) Chapter five 36 I want to control the distance for instance in the second and third line to the right margin (This means chapters indeed => Line5,6,8,9 too). This could result in the fact that my chapters will appear on 3 lines instead of 2 here. To my knowledge there is no parameter such as "distance" to change this. Here "distance" changes only the distance between chapter elements for instance: the element (1) Chapter one 12 and the element Chapter two 13 (3). This how alternative d works (with elements). This is how the result i want could be: Part 1 first part 11 (1) Chapter one 12 (2) Chapter two 13 (3) Chapter three 14 (4) Chapter four 15 (5) Chapter five 16 Part 2 second part 21 (1) Chapter one 22 (2) Chapter two 23 (3) Chapter three 24 (4) Chapter four 25 (5) Chapter five 26 Part 3 Third part 31 (1) Chapter one 32 (2) Chapter two 33 (3) Chapter three 34 (4) Chapter four 35 (5) Chapter five 36 Thanks. Dirar.

An option is to use the narrower mechanism; unfortunately abc placement does not listen that so we need a patch (not sure if this is not breaking other things). % this goes into core-sec or cont-new \unprotect \def\dodofixdlijstelementABC#1#2#3#4#5#6% weeden {\endgraf \leftskip\getvalue{\??li#1\c!margin}% na de \endgraf ! \getvalue{\??li#1\c!before}% \!!widthc\getvalue{\??li#1\c!distance}% \doifelsevalue{\??li#1\c!width}\v!fit {\!!widtha\zeropoint} {\doifelsenothing{#3} {\doifelsevalue{\??li#1\c!aligntitle}\v!yes {\!!widtha\zeropoint \!!widthc\zeropoint} {\!!widtha\getvalue{\??li#1\c!width}}} {\!!widtha\getvalue{\??li#1\c!width}}}% \getvalue{\??li\c!alternative\getvalue{\??li#1\c!alternative}}% \endgraf \def\makelijstelement##1##2% {\doifelsevalue{\??li#1\c!interaction}{##1} {\setbox0\hbox{\showcontrastlocation\??ia{#6}{##2}}% \linklisttoelement{#1}{#2}{#5}{#6}{\box0}}%{\copy0}}% {\hbox{##2}}}% \doifvalue{\??li#1\c!interaction}\v!text % not supported {\setlistparameter{#1}\c!interaction\v!all}% % \makelijstelement\v!all % {\hbox to \hsize \makelijstelement\v!all {\setlocalhsize \hsize\localhsize \hbox to \hsize {\forgetall \dostartattributes{\??li#1}\c!style\c!color\empty \!!widthb\hsize \setbox2\hbox \ifdim\!!widtha>\zeropoint to \!!widtha \fi {\makelijstelement\v!sectionnumber {\dolistattributes{#1}\c!numberstyle\c!numbercolor {\getvalue{\??li#1\c!numbercommand}{\currentlistsymbol}}% \hfill}}% \setbox4\hbox {\doifvalue{\??li#1\c!pagenumber}\v!yes {\doifsomething{#5} % \lijstwidth is new ; temp hack {\hbox \ifdim\lijstwidth>\zeropoint to \lijstwidth\fi {\hfill \makelijstelement\v!pagenumber {\dolistattributes{#1}\c!pagestyle\c!pagecolor {\getvalue{\??li#1\c!pagecommand}% {\pageprefix\??li#1[#5]% \translatednumber[#5]}}}}}}}% \vbox {\hsize\!!widthb \setupalign[\getvalue{\??li#1\c!align}]% \ifdim\!!widtha<\hsize \hangindent=\wd2 \dimen2=\!!widthc % \getvalue{\??li#1\c!distance}% \advance\hangindent \dimen2 \hangafter=1 \doifvalue{\??li#1\c!hang}\v!no{\hangafter\zerocount}% \ifdim\wd4=\zeropoint % \ifvoid4 % we kunnen gewoon afbreken aan het eind \else \ifdim\lijstskip>\zeropoint\relax \rightskip=\lijstskip\!!plus10em\relax \parfillskip=-\rightskip \fi \fi \else \dimen2\zeropoint \fi \parindent\zeropoint\relax \leavevmode \box2\relax \hskip\dimen2 \bgroup \dolistattributes{#1}\c!textstyle\c!textcolor {\let\\=\newlineinlist \dontconvertfont %\getvalue{\??li#1\c!textcommand}{#4}}% \limitatedlistentry{#1}{#4}}% %\carryoverpar % new otherwise wrong linespacing \egroup \ifdim\wd4=\zeropoint\relax % \ifvoid4 % \ifdim\!!widtha<\hsize \hfill\strut \fi % spoils align \else \nobreak\lijstfill \box4\relax \relax \fi}% \hss \dostopattributes}}% new \nointerlineskip % anders verkeerde spatiering bij multi-line \endgraf \allowbreak \getvalue{\??li#1\c!after}} \protect \setuphead [part] [align=left,page=right,placehead=yes,before={\null\vfill},after={\vfill}] \setuphead [chapter][before=,after=\blank] \setuplist [chapter][alternative=d,left=(,right=),pagestyle=slanted,before=\blank,after=\blank] \setuplist [part] [before={\blank[big]},after=\blank] \starttext \startnarrower[2*right] \placecontent \stopnarrower \blank[4*big] \startsetups chapter \blank \startnarrower[3*middle] \placecontent[criterium=local] \stopnarrower \stopsetups \placelist[part][criterium=text,after=\setups{chapter}] \part{First part} \chapter{Chapter one} \chapter{Chapter two} \chapter{Chapter three} \chapter{Chapter four} \chapter{Chapter five} \part{Second part} \chapter{Chapter one} \chapter{Chapter two} \chapter{Chapter three} \chapter{Chapter four} \chapter{Chapter five} \part{Third part} \chapter{Chapter one} \chapter{Chapter two} \chapter{Chapter three} \chapter{Chapter four} \chapter{Chapter five} \stoptext ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
Whaaaaaaaaa Thanks a lot to you all. Hans, I have tried: \startnarrower[4*right] \placecontent \stopnarrower \blank[4*big] This is exactly what i meant. Unfortunately, there is a problem, which is in my opinion not related to TOC, but to Tex (or Context, you'll be able to tell). i get a result like this: Part 1 First part 11 (1) Chapter one 12 (2) Chapter two 13 (3) Chapter ^^^^^^ three 14 (4) Chapter four 15 (5) Chapter five 16 Part 2 Second part 21 (1) Chapter one 22 (2) Chapter two 23 (3) Chapter three 24 (4) Chapter four 25 (5) Chapter five 26 Part 3 Third part 31 (1) Chapter one 32 (2) Chapter two 33 (3) Chapter three 34 (4) Chapter four 35 (5) Chapter five 36 Why does Context cut all the lines at the right place, and not that second one ? I got the same error the other day when i was writing a letter. I had all the paragraphs aligned to the right at the same distance, but the last line of my document didnt align with them, and i got a text like this: ks dsdjkl fq sqfl sdlkj f dsld sfjds s ds sdjklf gfi lkdsjf ig lkdsjf oi fls sjfskl id fsdl sdi dsjfu fjs fl lùgdd ks dsdjkl fq sqfl sdlkj f dsld sfjds s ds sdjklf gfi lkdsjf ig lkdsjf oi fls sjfskl id fsdl sdi dsjfu fjs fl lùgdd ks dsdjkl fq sqfl sdlkj f dsld sfjds s ds sdjklf gfi lkdsjf ig lkdsjf oi fls sjfskl id fsdl sdi dsjfu fjs fl lùgdd sdksjf dsjklf ds fsdkl fs fkldsf dj dslf dsjk fd. How can i control this ? Thanks in advance. Dirar.
