[NTG-context] extra line in tabulate headers

2011-03-10 Thread Florian Wobbe
Hi,

how can I suppress the extra line in the header of the example on contextgarden 
(http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Tabulate#Headers)? Removing header=repeat from 
\setuptabulate helps but I'd like to keep header repetition.

Thanks,
Florian

Hi Florian,

wrapping it into a “\placetable”-float seems to get rid of it:

···8

\setuptabulate[split=yes,header=repeat]

\starttext 

\starttabulatehead
  \HL
  \NC {\bf format char} \NC {\bf meaning} \NC \NR
  \HL
\stoptabulatehead

\placetable[here]{none}{%
  \starttabulate[|r|l|]
  \NC c \NC centered  \AR
  \NC l \NC left aligned  \AR
  \NC r \NC right aligned \AR
  \stoptabulate
}

\stoptext

% vim:ft=context
···8

Regards, Philipp

 Hi Florian,

Hi Philipp,

in deed it does with \placetable[here]. I should have added that I wrapped it 
inside \placetable[split] to split the table over several pages. Unfortunately 
this messes up the header lines:

\setuptabulate[split=yes,header=repeat]

\starttabulatehead
 \HL
 \NC {\bf format char} \NC {\bf meaning} \NC \NR
 \HL
\stoptabulatehead

\placetable[split]{none}{%

   \dorecurse{20}{
 \NC c \NC centered  \AR
 \NC l \NC left aligned  \AR
 \NC r \NC right aligned \AR
 \HL}
 \stoptabulate
}

Re: [NTG-context] Compile script

2011-03-10 Thread Philipp A.
2011/3/3 Cecil Westerhof cldwester...@gmail.com

 I have been asking a lot of questions lately and getting very speedy
 replies. Time to give something back. ;-}

 I attached a script I made to easily compile ConTeXt files in the current
 directory. Default it looks if there are tex files where there is no pdf
 file, or the pdf file is older. Those are compiled.

 It is possible that a tex file has not changed, but a file that it depends
 on has. That is why there is the parameter --all. When this is given, all
 tex files are compiled. I hope it is useful to someone.

 --
 Cecil Westerhof


good idea. it would be cool to extend it to utilize texworks'
modelineshttp://code.google.com/p/texworks/wiki/TipsAndTricks,
which are a pretty straightforward way to tell programs which files are root
files and which command shjould be used to compile them (a bit like
shebangs).

i would like to see these standardized in some way (and a good start is to
tell everyone they are there)

[NTG-context] \startsetups amd \startJSpreamble

2011-03-10 Thread Procházka Lukáš Ing . - Pontex s . r . o .

Hello,

just to confirm - the role of the text after \start*:

\startsetups thumbs

- on http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Thumb_index

and

\startJSpreamble MyStuff used later

- in the last mails between Vedran and Hans.

Do I understand well that thumbs and MyStuff used later in both cases are 
names of the setups and are reffered later by these names?

I fell a bit confused as normally such names are enclosed in brackets; thus I'd 
rather expect syntax like:

\startsetups[thumbs]
...
\stopsetups

and

\startJSpreamble[MyStuff used later]
...
\stopJSpreamble

Kind regards,

Lukas

TeX reads always more text than it needs for a page and in your example
the “Section 1.2” was seen by TeX when it was building page 3 although
it didn’t fit and was postponed till page 4.

Hi all,

Using the last mkiv from the minimals, \setuppublications seems out of order.

If I write:
..
\setupbibtex [database=/home/jean/biblio]
\setuppublications[alternative=apa]

\starttext


{\bf Bibliography}

\nocite[foo, bla, blu]
\placepublications
\stoptext

the pub list is empty. But if comment out this line the bibliography is
printed; it works also ok with

Sure, but why does TeX write 1.2 one? The second part one is correct ... 
Why can't both parts be synchronized (correctly of course!)??

Re: [NTG-context] header entries semi-wrong

2011-03-10 Thread Steffen Wolfrum

Of course, manually tweaking helps. 
Only, one needs to see that here is a page where tweaking is needed!

And this is the problem:
The head says 1.2 one, but it should be 1.1 one!

First I trusted the automated head entries, then I realized it can be wrong and 
now I skim typeset books before sending them to printer.
But when skimming a book it is quite likely to not-see the wrong 1 when 
seeing the correct one!

Is there no way to automatically get the correct number information 1.1 that 
is corresponding to the correct text entry one??


\getmarking[section] provides the right information,
\headnumber[section] is too far in border cases ... 

Isn't there a command that gets the number that belongs to the text of 
\getmarking[section]

 I agree with Luigi, after using different length and \page I was able to 
 produce correct output.
 According to me your example is probably a border case.

Am 10.03.2011 um 15:48 schrieb Steffen Wolfrum:

 Sure, but why does TeX write 1.2 one? The second part one is correct ... 
 Why can't both parts be synchronized (correctly of course!)??

It’s because \headnumber is macro expansion which happens when TeX collects
material for the page and \getmarking use TeX’s mark mechanism which is
meant for elements which are added after the page is finished.

Here is a example which shows a problem with expansion:

\setuplayout[lines=10]
\def\foo{foo}
\appendtoks\gdef\foo{bar}\to\everyaftershipout
\starttext
\dorecurse{20}{\foo\par}
\stoptext

What you can do is to create a new mark with \definemarking where
you set \headnumber and which you then use in the header.

Somebody would have to test, but one thing that is sure is that at
every location where you plan to put the USB stick you will have to
run luatools --generate and context --make before compiling the
document. This has been fixed recently, but is not part of MikTeX yet.

Where exactly do you get stuck?

It could be just an impression. By the way, how abou this instead:

\starttext
\startalignment[left]
  \definedfont[Sans at 72pt]
  {Freed \blank

\stopalignment
\stoptex

This way, you can control how much blank space you want.

I believe that there is a bug or something has changed from Context version 14

Re: [NTG-context] Itemize not breaking across pages?

2011-03-10 Thread Alasdair McAndrew
The trouble arises when I put my tables into narrower, framedtext so as to
be able to force proper indentation:

\starttext

\startitemize[n]
\dorecurse{20}{\item This is a test

\startnarrower[left]
\startframedtext[frame=off,offset=overlay]
\starttables[|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|]
  \NC (a) \NC Problem 1
  \NC (b) \NC Problem 2
  \NC (c) \NC Problem 3
  \NC (d) \NC Problem 4 \NC\NR
  \noalign{\blank[3mm]}
  \NC (e) \NC Problem 5
  \NC (f) \NC Problem 6
  \NC (g) \NC Problem 7
  \NC (h) \NC Problem 8 \NC\NR
\stoptables
 \stopframedtext
\stopnarrower}

\stopitemize

\stoptext

On the other hand, the file:

\starttext

\startitemize[n]
\dorecurse{20}{\item This is a test

\starttables[|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|]
  \NC (a) \NC Problem 1
  \NC (b) \NC Problem 2
  \NC (c) \NC Problem 3
  \NC (d) \NC Problem 4 \NC\NR
  \noalign{\blank[3mm]}
  \NC (e) \NC Problem 5
  \NC (f) \NC Problem 6
  \NC (g) \NC Problem 7
  \NC (h) \NC Problem 8 \NC\NR
\stoptables}

\stopitemize

\stoptext

breaks across pages properly, but the tables aren't properly aligned at the
left.

cheers,
Alasdair

 to put manual page breaks in.


 small example needed

Re: [NTG-context] Am not getting Roman numeral page numbers in MKIV

2011-03-10 Thread Jeong Dalyoung
Dear Tom,

Please add following lines in the preamble, then you will get roman numerals.

\definestructureconversionset[frontpart:pagenumber][][romannumerals]
\definestructureconversionset[bodypart:pagenumber] [][numbers]

Also I use \startstructureblockenvironment[backpart] instead of 
\startsectionblockenvironment[backmatter].

cheers, and enjoy ConTeXt!
