[NTG-context] Context and metapost: using \frac
Hi
I am using context to run a metapost graph. I am however unable to
insert a label with \frac, since this is not pure Tex but Latex. This
seems to be a known problem for metapost:
-Seems for metapost only, one should add %latex
(http://ryanmlayer.wordpress.com/tag/metapost/).
-I saw also one post where it was mentione done should add
//\setupMPpage[offset=1pt]
//(http://www.tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2001-March/000429.html). I tried,
but did not work however...
Any idea how I should do? Find below minimal example, that does not work
on my computer when compiling with context...
Thanks!!
Matthieu
\starttext
\setupMPpage[offset=1pt]

\startMPpage
label.top(btex 1.4 etex scaled 1.00, (10, 10));
label.top(btex $\sigma_t$ etex scaled 1.00, (0, 10));
label.top(btex $\displaystyle \frac{\sigma_t}{a}$ etex scaled 1.00,
(1, 1));

Re: [NTG-context] Context and metapost: using \frac
Dear Hans
Thanks for your quick answer! I was however not able to produce the
graph with the textext code... Should I actually then use another
compiler? I tried with context and texexec (I thought texexec is the
compiler for mkiv, right? I'm on linux ubuntu).
I saw also that, as you mention, context has a \frac:

Re: [NTG-context] Ideas for restructuring the ConTeXt garden?
Well, I am a beginner. I have just lost 2 hours trying to do something which ought to be simple. Perhaps now I have spent 10's of hours working at my understanding, yet still I have to look up the simplest essentials, often. And I think knowing what kind of things it is, and where one might look are necessary lubricants for this process. I think you probably cannot have too many (documented) examples. Things which are very obvious to some , are not so obvious to others. And if too much has to be done by trial and error then everything is very slow... Very very slow. For me, there is too much that is cryptic in the Wiki. Often I read the entry and am no wiser. Each word is well formed, but there is no mental model emerging. Maybe a wiki is good place for archiving, curating and exchanging tips, but just not so good for learning from scratch. The 'Starting with Context' pdf I find very good, but for later work all kinds of things are 'bad style', 'deprecated' etc. So maybe a way in to thinking about what to do is to consider how the newer user might get a handle on what Context is really for, and why one might prefer it to manually typesetting documents... Kind regards Ian 2011/3/16 Vedran Miletić riva...@gmail.com: 2011/3/14 Carlos Breton Besnier breton.car...@gmail.com 2011/3/12 Florian Wobbe florian.wo...@awi.de Maybe we should start a discussion in a new thread to find out: 5) how to better promote context to new/latex users? I think is needed a installation guide for non-technical. A guide not only for programmers but a simple guide for dummies. Like me, I am no-developer, I write law books. Latex installation and update is very simple for beginners. On Windows with MiKTeX, everyone can write very soon his first document. Not so with ConTeXt, except old stand-alone installation. It's cause of frustration and after several attempts they give up. Then they return to LaTeX (like me too). Well, with TeX Live 2010 it's very simple to use MkII with both pdfTeX and XeTeX. Hopefully, some future version of TeX Live (2011?) will offer the same for MkIV. Script is already there, it's just not integrated with TeXworks in TeX Live yet.

Re: [NTG-context] Grid typesetting and inline math
After some trial and error, I'm using
\setuplayout[grid=yes]
\startlinecorrection
Paragraph with inline math
\gform{math stuff} % without the optional [-]
and some more text that belongs to this parapgraph
\stoplinecorrection
and
\blank[-1*line]
where necessary. It is not really a convenient solution, but it works
and I've got the impression that I can do what I want.

Hello,
I'm struggling with the grid. I've stepped from LaTeX to luaLaTeX for a
simpler font selection, and from luaLaTeX to ConTeXt for getting a
usable grid (because I was told that it supports typesetting on a grid).
Now that I got font selection working as desired in ConTeXt, the grid is
driving me crazy.
I'm trying to use the grid as described in details.pdf, and I want
halfline spacing around formulas in text, because a full line is
definitely too much. This is what I'm compiling:
\setupbodyfont[10pt,serif] % should be lm?
\setuplayout[grid=yes]
\setuptextformulas[step=halfline]
\starttext
\showgrid
Testing inline math: \gform{x_2 = \frac{a}{b}}. The following line
should be seperated from this one by half a line, but it isn't.
Testing inline math: \gform[-]{x_2 = \frac{a}{b}}. The following line
should be seperated from this one by half a line, but it isn't.
\stoptext
Both paragraphs look identical, the second line is too far away from the
first one. What's wrong with my code?
Also, how can I manually depart from the grid, e.g. for block quotes?

[NTG-context] strange error on ntgmaps style
I get a strange error when using the dutch NTG-MAPS style I acquired from Taco,
quite some time ago taking into account the fast pace of development in ConTeXt
;-)
The error location in the log seems to be not directly related to the culprit,
because deleting some lines shifts the given linenumber that number of lines
down.
If I comment out the maps style and its macros:
\usemodule[map-se]\enablemode[nosubsub]
\startArticle[.]
\startAbstract ... \stopAbstract
\startKeywords ... \stopKeywords
\stopArticle
then typesetting does not give the error.
The error message is:

I must mention the fact that formerly this did work (the article even being
published in the NTG-MAPS).
Is there a new version of the NTG-MAPS module to try?

Is this code you wrote supposed to be the whole doc to compile? And
compiled with context? If yes, I got an error again... I have version
context --version

MTXrun | current version: 2009.11.26 16:2
Is it likel;y then that the problem is solved in more recent versions? I
would try to update then... I am on Ubuntu 10.10 64b, is there a simple
way to update from other repos, or should I compile?
Thanks for your help!!!

Re: [NTG-context] Layers again
Thanks, as every. More information - I hope without overload.
I was trying to make a test suite... And failed depressingly...
I have a series of swf files that I'd like to position in exactly the
same location on a page.
Not all pages will have an swf on them.
The swf will be specific to that page.
Now I think need a layer to be able to position exactly - that is so
many pixels in and down from the top ('Paper' size is 1024 by 768) -
I don't know how to do this with overlays, and it seems to me that the
documentation suggests that layers are made for this job:
So I write:
\definepapersize[Screen][width=1024px,height=768px]
\setuppapersize[Screen][Screen]
\definelayer[SPTinteractivemedium] % name of the layer
[x=359px, y=140px, % from upper left corner of paper
width=642px, height=492px, repeat=yes] % let the layer be large
enough for the med swf
And then
\setupbackgrounds[page][state=page,background={SPTinteractivemedium}]
Then i the text I write
\starttext
Hello world, etc
\setlayer [SPTinteractivemedium] % name of the layer
[hoffset=0px, voffset=0px,] % placement (from upper left
corner of the layer)
{\externalfigure [plug][width=200px]} % the actual contents of
the layer
But when I get to a new page I'd like to be able to change that plug,

So
\page[yes]
\setlayer [SPTinteractivemedium] % name of the layer
[hoffset=0px, voffset=0px,] % placement (from upper left
corner of the layer)
{ \externalfigure [dummy][width=100px]} % the actual contents
of the layer
And;
\page[yes]
\setlayer [SPTinteractivemedium] % name of the layer
[hoffset=0px, voffset=0px,] % placement (from upper left
corner of the layer)
{ \externalfigure ??? } % HOW TO SET THE \externalfigure to
NOTHING, or hide the layer?
It seems this ought to be easy, but I tried guessing a 'state=page'
parameter in \setlayer... And trawling wiki, manuals. No joy.
I might try changing the backgrounds on a page by page basis, but this
seems inelegant, as the \setups ought to be before the \starttext..?

Re: [NTG-context] Layers again
OK, now maybe I get it. This might help someone...
It's the **contents** of the layer that get repeated if you set
repeat=yes in \definelayer - as in
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Layers
If you do a \setlayer then this simply adds to the existing stack of
contents displayed on the layer. You get more and more stuff until
you do a \resetlayer, assuming you set repeat=yes in the
\definelayer. Thus(?) \definelayer is all about the contents of the
layer (? Apart from setting the dimensions and so on... I think that's
what deflected me into thinking that this command was about the
canvas, and the \setlayer about the contents.)
The \setupbackgrounds[page][state=repeat,background={XXX}] is the
command that puts the logical layer on each page.
If this seems about right then I'll have a go at adding a sentence or
two to the wiki...maybe on-one else thinks of it in terms of the
existence and then the population of a layer...?

indeed, and that repeat is independent of layers
Also, you can have multiple layers, so
\setupbackgrounds[page][state=repeat,background={XXX,YYY}]
as well as put stuff in front
\setupbackgrounds[page][state=repeat,background={XXX,foreground,YYY}]
in this case YYY goes in front.
And then there are viewerlayers (acrobat) that you can turn on and off
with \goto{On}[VideLayer{mylayer}] but that's a different topic.

[NTG-context] line numbers in margin from xml in context mkiv
All,
After being away from my project for a while I returned to find that
something that worked now no longer does. I updated the minimals on my
Mac and context is running as I would expect:
jjc% context --version
mtx-context | main context file:
/Users/jjc/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/context.mkiv
mtx-context | current version: 2011.04.24 15:15
But now, while running my environment.tex file against my target
TEI/xml file context complains:
! Undefined control sequence.
l.77 \defineinmargin
[lineNumbers] [normal]
?
My own fragile understanding of what I'm doing may well be at fault,
but perhaps something relevant has changed with the minimals?
I had an environment file that I'd arrived at by much trial and error
that renders page/line numbers encoded in the xml/TEI source in the
margins of my pdf output:
\startxmlsetups xml:pb
\def\svopage{\xmlatt{#1}{n}.}
\xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups
\startluacode
function filter(lb)
if math.mod(lb,5) == 0 then
context.svopage()
context(lb)
end
end
\stopluacode
\define[1]\MyNumber%
{\ctxlua{filter(#1)}\endgraf}
\startxmlsetups xml:lb
\xmldoifelse{#1}{ancestor::head[@type='diarytitle']}
{\\}
{\lineNumbers{\tfxx\MyNumber{\xmlatt{#1}{n
\xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups
\defineinmargin [lineNumbers] [normal]
Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
