However with \enablemode[lmmath] the command \notin does not work as expected, while when the above command is commented out it does. Afaik \notin works okay. Another issue is that the size of integrals when using palatino, times or termes is the almost the same as the ones in inline maths, and I think that this is not the correct behaviour. I think that depends on how the font defines the steps (if xits does it right, then palatino/termes are wrong).

[NTG-context] (XeTeX) trouble debugging a Missing number error
Hi all,
I'm working with some code that was developed by someone else.
The document I'm typesetting is now giving the following error:
! Missing number, treated as zero.

I haven't been able to figure out what's wrong or how to fix it.
I had just made changes to refactor the definitions of fonts. (I
confirmed that these changes really are a necessary cause of the error:
when I back out just these changes, the error goes away.)
From the above error message I understand the error was detected during
the expansion of \startabblist. Here's the definition of abblist:
% Abbreviations
\definestartstop
[abblist]
[before={\setupbackgrounds[text][background=verticalline]
\starttextbackground[text]
\setuptab[headstyle={\switchtobodyfont[SansB,\SansBsize]},width=20mm,location=left]
\startcolumnset[abbcolumn] \startalignment[flushleft,nothyphenated]},
after={\stopalignment \stopcolumnset \stoptextbackground
\setupbackgrounds[text][background=off]}]
From that, one might guess that the font SansB or the font dimension
\SansBsize were the problem. But those definitions haven't changed
(though I would like to confirm that empirically with a run-time trace
message).
Here are the font settings changes that did occur:
E16fonts.tex:
changed this block:
\definefont[SerifXLI][name:GentiumBookBasic-Italic at 10pt]
\definefont[SerifXXL][name:GentiumBookBasic at 12pt]
\definefont[SerifXXLB][name:GentiumBookBasic-Bold at 12pt]
to use size dimensions defined elsewhere:
\definefont[SerifXLI][name:GentiumBookBasic-Italic at \XLfontsize]
\definefont[SerifXXL][name:GentiumBookBasic at \XXLfontsize]
\definefont[SerifXXLB][name:GentiumBookBasic-Bold at \XXLfontsize]
E16settings.tex: I added these definitions:
\define\XLfontsize{14pt}
\define\XXLfontsize{16pt}
There are modes involved, so things are a bit more complicated, but I
believe that is the only effective difference.
I also created a log file, which I'll attach.
There is also a version with \tracingmacros=1, but it's 600K, so I'll
put it at
http://www.huttar.net/tmp/country-report-country_id-15-tracing.log
Thanks for taking a look. Please let me know what further information I
need to provide.
I can provide the .tex files themselves upon request.
I would especially like to know better techniques for debugging -- how I
can induce TeX/ConTeXt to tell me more about what's going on. I realize
that as a macro language, this is inherently difficult with TeX.
We are heavily invested in XeTeX, so switching to LuaTeX in the near
term is not an option.

yes, it's not always easy ... best is to make small tests (while
developing styles) and test those snippets ... due to tex's expansion
there can always be nasty interferences in complex setups
We are heavily invested in XeTeX, so switching to LuaTeX in the near
term is not an option.
a pitty as it runs smoother (and context mkiv has some more features)
(i never used xetex in production and as in context it used the mkii
macros there are not updates, so in principle old runs should still run)

I don't really understand the use of \unexpanded.

Missing number error, etc.

I will try that, but all our font size definitions have always used
\define, and it used to work fine without errors.
On http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/define it says that \define is
like the TeX primitive \def, but will print an error to the log file if
the new definition overwrites an existing command.
I checked the log file, and there is no error mentioning XLfontsize.
So the purpose of your suggestion is to remove the possibility of
reporting a duplicate definition? (There's probably more to it than that
- I'm just trying to understand.)
I tried changing \define to \def as you suggested. The result was
unchanged - same error.

Lars

I don't really understand the use of \unexpanded.
Putting many command and setup in the before and after keys for \definestartstop
isn’t the nicest way to create start/stop command, Hans used a two step method
and put all setups and separate commands which are now used by \definestartstop.
Defining command with \unexpanded\def\…{…} instead of \def\…{…} can prevent
you from unwanted side effects when you use command in headings etc.
After making this change, the behavior is unaffected... I still get the
Missing number error, etc.
The information you provided aren sufficient to reproduce the error,
according to the message there is a problem with columnsets but there
is no way to tell why you get it.
in such case best make a small example, for instance how is abblist used?
\startabblist{
\tab{\ITC{alt.}}\AE{alternate name for}\par
...
\tab{USDS}\AE{US Department of State}\par
}\stopabblist
where \AE is defined as:
\def\AE#1{\hskip -3mm \SerifL{#1} \vskip 1mm}
Can you provide a working minimal example which does produce the error.

There is no difference between \define and \def in MkII but for MkIV
there is a difference because \define is \unexpanded\def and the new
command \defineexpandable corresponds to the normal \def.
