Re: [NTG-context] set fallback in \definefont
Thanks for the quick response, Pablo. I already use typescripts
(\definetypeface, \definefontsynonym and \definefontfallback):
https://github.com/bateni/dabeer/tree/master/texmf-local/tex/context/fonts/mkiv
By arbitrary style, I meant something like:
\definefontfamily[myface][CUSTOM][TeX Gyre Pagella]]
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Font_Switching says fontstyle is rm, ss, tt,
mm, hw, cg, ...
Because the the three dots at the end, I thought it would be possible to
define new fontstyles. But I get an error if I do so.
So I usually use \definefont to set up one-off fonts for specific use-cases
such as special headings or an artwork, etc. I was wondering if I can
easily apply fontfallbacks for those.

Hi Mohammad,
the simplefonts module has been deprecated, since it has been
implemented in the ConTeXt core (see below).
\definefontfallback might be the command you are looking for.
You need also \definefontsynonym but it's easier to create a new
typeface (fontfamily) and load it with \switchtobodyfont.
\definefontfallback
[AnotherFontFallback]
[file:texgyreherosregular*default]
[lowercasenormal]
[force=yes]
\definefontsynonym
[AnotherFontMain]
[file:texgyrepagellaregular]
[fallbacks=AnotherFontFallback]
\definefont [AnotherFont] [AnotherFontMain*default]
\starttext
\dorecurse{26}{\convertnumber{A}{\recurselevel}\space}\par
\dorecurse{26}{\convertnumber{a}{\recurselevel}\space}
\AnotherFont
\dorecurse{26}{\convertnumber{A}{\recurselevel}\space}\par
\dorecurse{26}{\convertnumber{a}{\recurselevel}\space}
\stoptext

Hi Mohammad,
the simplefonts module has been deprecated, since it has been
implemented in the ConTeXt core (see below).
\definefontfallback might be the command you are looking for.

The new commands are \definefallbackfamily and \definefontfamily.
A sample document, in case it might help (GFS Heraklit at
https://greekfontsociety-gfs.gr/_assets/fonts/GFS_Heraklit.zip):
\definefallbackfamily
[mainface]
[rm]
[GFS Heraklit]
[preset=range:greek,
force=yes]
\definefontfamily
[mainface]
[rm]
[TeX Gyre Pagella]
\setupbodyfont
[mainface]
\starttext
\agr\input aristotle-grc
\de\input aesop-de
\stoptext
Sorry, but unless you provide a minimal sample, it isn’t easy to guess
what you might have in mind.
I’m afraid that I’m not sure whether the following sample contains your
“arbitrary styles”.
\setupinteractionscreen[option=max]
\definefontfamily
[mainface]
[rm]
[TeX Gyre Pagella]
[it={TeX Gyre Cursor-Italic},
bf={TeX Gyre Adventor-Bold},
bi={TeX Gyre Termes-BoldItalic}]
\setupbodyfontenvironment
[default]
[em=italic]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1em]
Roman font {\em & italic}
{\bf Bold font \em & bold italic}
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
Feel free to explain what your needs are.
I hope it helps,
Pablo

[NTG-context] set fallback in \definefont
Hi, Is there a way to set the fallback for fonts when we define them not as a typescript but using \definefont? \definefont[MyFont][Font.otf*MyFeatures] Is there a default fallback one can specify? Is simplefonts module deprecated or discouraged now? When we define a font via typescript commands, we can specify rm, ss, tt, mm, hw and cg shapes for it. Can we add arbitrary styles? For example, I would use this for quotations, headings, etc. Currently, I either have to spare ss or use \definefont for such scenarios.

Many thanks for your reply, Hans. Might I suggest a couple of implementations in ConTeXt for these lockdown days? Parallel streams (both in pages and columns) have been already mentioned here by some other users. BTW, a nice version of three streams in two facing pages can be seen at https://archive.org/details/aristo-teles-poetica/page/n54/mode/1up. The other suggestion would be page registers for footnotes (such as in http://www.faenumpublishing.com/uploads/2/3/9/8/23987979/hippocrates_on_airs_waters_and_places_-_hayes_and_nimis_june_2013.pdf#page=126). >> Many thanks again for your excellent work with ConTeXt, > Maybe some bad tuc file? Sometimes wiping it helps. I overlooked that XML output was different from a newer version of pandoc (which I use in Windows). The new version included the same class for parent and child element (parent and child ). Of course, this lead to crash, since my lpath selection took for granted that only the parent had that class. In my case, copying everything to a new "testing" file (or bunch of files) and start removing lines is the way to discover what is wrong in the code.

Hi all.
I'm trying to place a TikZ picture in the margin.
Here is a small example:
\usemodule[tikz]
\setuplayout[backspace=4cm, topspace=2cm, height=middle]
\starttext
\input{lorem}
\margintext{I have discovered a truly
marvelous proof ... but
this margin is too narrow

\input{lorem}
\inmargin{\externalfigure[cow] [width=\marginwidth]}
% The above works.
% The following does not:
\input{lorem}
\inmargin{
\starttikzpicture
\draw[gray] (-2,0) grid (2,2) ;
\draw plot [domain=-2:2, samples=50, smooth] (\x,{\x * \x});
\stoptikzpicture
}
\stoptext
-> Undefined control sequence
Most likely because the argument of \inmargin is scanned upfront and at that
time \draw etc are undefined. One option is:
\startbuffer[picture]
\starttikzpicture
...
\stoptikzpicture
\stopbuffer
\inmargin{\getbuffer[picture]}
Another option (but better to do that in tikz module) is:
\let\draw\relax
\let\x\relax
\inmargin{\starttikzpicture ... \stoptikzpicture}
Actually the command \startmarginblock ... \stop... described in the ConText
reference works with a TikZ picture.
Because the \start ... \stop blocks don't scan the argument.
Here's one for you to ponder:
we have this:
% \doifelsenothing{#content}\donefalse\donetrue
we could use the slower (maybe even side effects)
% \doifelsetext{#content}\donetrue\donefalse
but go modern instead:
\ifparameter#content\donefalse\or\donetrue\else\donefalse\fi
i'll add that last one to lmtx
