Re: [NTG-context] Figured bass symbols in a text

in reply to my question: Is there a neat way to insert a stack of three
figures in a line of text with the middle one sitting on the base line?
Since no one has offered a quick ConTeXt solution, I offer my usual -- a dumb
Plain TeX solution:
\def\lomihi#1#2#3{${\scriptstyle{#2}}\limits_{#1}^{#3}$}
With the Computer Modern font, the top is a little further away from the
middle than the bottom. It can be adjusted with something like
\def\lomihi#1#2#3{${\scriptstyle{#2}}\limits_{#1}^{\lower0.23pt\hbox{$\scriptstyle{#3}$}}$}
but this would probably have to be adjusted for each font and size.
Hope that helps,
Michael
Thank you very much. It certainly helps. This is exactly what I need.
Kind regards,
Rober

You can use \framed:
\defineframed[lohimi][align=flushleft,location=middle,frame=off,foregroundstyle=\tx]
\starttext
text \lohi{1}{2} text \lohimi{1\\2\\3} text
\stoptext

Hi Wolfgang,
Though you actually replied to Michael Rogers' mail I consider myself to be a
recipient of your advice too. Thank you very much for your help.
For my purpose the dumb Plain TeX solution that Michael Rogers suggested
works better as the distances between the figures are short enough to make it
look like one symbol.
Which is the way I prefer it in this sort of text.
Thanks again,
Kind regards,
Robert

[NTG-context] superscript spacing: xits math font
Hi there,
Likewise to an issue reported earlier to this list (Math other issues for TL
2012) there seems to be a problem with the spacing of the superscript in the
xits math font, which cannot be controlled via the setupmathematics[italix=n]
option:
%%% start example
\setupbodyfont[xits]
\starttext
${\cal P}^hx$
$P^h_mx$
$C^hx$
$W^{-1}x$
\stoptext
%%% stop example
For me (ConTeXt ver: 2012.08.10 00:32 MKIV fmt: 2012.8.10) these examples yield
a too small spacing / negative spacing between the letter and the corresponding
superscript. Any ideas?
Cheers,
Andreas
Not quite sure if this is a pure font problem and should be sent to some other
place than this list?
