[NTG-context] pst-spectra and some other pstricks packages in context

2013-11-21 Thread DesdeChaves
Dear Sirs

Tanks a lot for the context software. I use it so much. I'm a
physics/chemistry teacher and for making personalized exams with random
numbers/questions the math.random() from lua is great.  For draw schematic
diagrams/graphs with random arguments I use tikz inside luacode, like
context(\\addplot[blue, ultra thick] {..slope..*x-..workfunction..};).
However, it would be useful to use some pstricks packages. For example, the
package pst-spectra includes a set of spectrum of various chemical
elements. It is unique.  Currently,  I run  latex and then import the pdf
file into context file. There are other old pstricks macros, but still very
useful, that i like to use. It's old, but useful. In the pstricks home page
(http://tug.org/PSTricks/main.cgi/) I can found some new work, with some
new packages and macros.

For now, if i try to run this simple code


\usemodule[pstric]
\starttext
\startPSTRICKS
\pspicture(0,0)(20,20)
\psline(0,0)(20,20)
\psline(1,1)(10,10)
\endpspicture
\stopPSTRICKS
\stoptext

I found this error message:

 Unicode alpha gets translated to \greekalpha, so you need a font

Yes, thanks for this clarification.
When I tested this earlier, I was indeed using dejavu...
In the chemistry macros, we are using a particular version of
mathematics mode (subscripts, superscripts, ...) but in normal font, so
greek characters, etc. will work if the font includes them.

 Thank you for your reaction.

This is odd. Here this EM does not work with CONTEXT version 2013.11.14 23:22, 
(which uses LuaTeX version 0.76.0 as engine.)

(to get this information I had of course to outcomment the \from[apurl])
Still stranger: when I plugged the url into some other TeX-file it did work 
with the same ConTeXt version.
 So it seems that there is some essential difference between these files (apart 
from their content)
Do you have any idea what that could be? Could it be a matter of text encoding? 
(I use TeXShop as the front end.)

Best regards,
Robert Blackstone

It works! Thanks for your help.

I added these lines to my macros.tex file which gets read first:

\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\setupmakeup[standard][page=yes, doublesided=no]

Then to preserve the blank page after my half
title (where I really want it) I changed my
master file to read as follows:

\input macros.tex
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\input variables.tex
\input half.tex
\startstandardmakeup %new

\stopstandardmakeup  %new
\input title.tex
\input copy.tex
%\input ded.tex
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
%\input body.tex
\stopbodymatter
\stoptext

Lines 6-8 in the above file give me a blank page.

This will now be my standard master file. I hope
that the next revision of the manual will
include this fix.

 old tex terminology ... in mkiv i don't use the build-in-tex marks at 
 all (too much juggling needed to get things right)
 So I'm wondering ... Hans, since the descriptions you posted are old tex
 terminology, what do previous/next/top/bottom/first/last/etc. mean in
 current terminology?
 I agree with Marco that the descriptions in the ref manual are much
 easier to understand, but appear to be wrong; and do not include top/bottom.
 I'll be happy to update the ref manual and the wiki if I can get clear
 and accurate information.

 We have run many examples here, including the ones on the getmarking
 wiki page, trying to understand what these keywords mean.
 top/bottom do appear to do what we need in an MWE, but are not working
 for us in the real document, and knowing the meaning of these keywords
 would be very helpful in troubleshooting the problem.

 Thanks,
 Lars

 
I now have a MWE that shows the problem.
Where top and bottom work fine outside of columns, in mixedcolumns, any
keyword I use with \getmarking always seem to return the *last* item on
the page. Here's the MWE:
\definemarking[country]


%\startsetups myheader

%F1: \getmarking[country][1][first] - L2: \getmarking[country][2][last]

%\hfill

%T1: \getmarking[country][1][top] - B2: \getmarking[country][2][bottom]

%\stopsetups


\startsetups myheader

F: \getmarking[country][first] - L: \getmarking[country][last]

\hfill

T: \getmarking[country][top] - B: \getmarking[country][bottom]

\stopsetups


\setupheadertexts[\setups{myheader}][][][\setups{myheader}]


\def\anothersection#1{

\marking[country]{#1}

{\bfb #1 \endgraf}

\dorecurse{1}{\input knuth \endgraf}

\marking[country]{#1}

}


\starttext

\startmixedcolumns[distance=5mm, balance=yes]

\anothersection{Brazil}

\anothersection{Suriname}

\anothersection{Uruguay}

\anothersection{Bolivia}

\anothersection{Venezuela}

\anothersection{Peru}

\stopmixedcolumns

\stoptext



When you run the MWE, you see that all the fields in the page header
show the same value: whatever country appears last on the page. (Or
even, depending on how you tweak the length of the country text, if the
next page starts with a new country, you'll get that new country for the
old page.)

I also tried using column numbers, in imitation of the columnsets
example on the wiki at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/getmarking

\startsetups myheader

F1: \getmarking[country][1][first] - L2: \getmarking[country][2][last]

\hfill

T1: \getmarking[country][1][top] - B2: \getmarking[country][2][bottom]

\stopsetups


But this didn't appear to make any difference. Maybe it works for
columnsets but not for mixedcolumns. Does anyone know how to get correct
results for \getmarking in mixedcolumns?


Thanks,
Lars

Re: [NTG-context] Numberconversion problem in caption prefixes

2013-11-21 Thread Géry Ogam
Thank you Wolfgang, it does what I want.

However, I realised after trying the following code inside environments
(frontmatter, bodymatter, backmatter and appendices) that the default
behaviour is WRONG because the conversions of prefixes are not always
automatic.

For instance, in the appendix environment, by default chapter numbers are
Characters and every prefix representing a chapter number is also a
Character (section prefixes, caption prefixes and so on). Now if you decide
to switch chapter numbers to Romannumerals, you will get something totally
inconsistent if you don’t do many conversions manually:


*\startsectionblockenvironment[appendix]*
*\defineconversionset[romannumeralsconversionset][][R]*
*\setuphead[chapter][sectionconversionset=romannumeralsconversionset]*
*\stopsectionblockenvironment*

*\starttext*

*\startappendices*
*\chapter{Cool}*
*\placefigure{A cow}{\externalfigure[cow]}*
*\chapter{Cat}*
*\section{Mouse}*
*\section{Dog}*
*\placefigure{A cow}{\externalfigure[cow]}*

*\stopappendices*

*\stoptext*


which gives:


*I Cool*
*[figure] Figure I.I Cow % -- Here the prefix conversion from 'A' to
'I' works.*

*II Cat*
*B.1 Mouse % -- Here the prefix conversion from 'B' to
'II' does NOT work.*
*B.2 Dog % -- Here the prefix conversion from 'B'
to 'II' does NOT work.*
*[figure] Figure B.II Cow   % -- Here the prefix conversion from 'B' to
'II' does NOT work (because of the presence of the 2 sections B.1 and B.2
where the prefix conversion already did not work I think, so here is the
BUG).*


Extra: is it normal that caption NUMBERS (not prefixes) are converted to
Romannumerals by default INSIDE the appendix environment (outside they are
usual numbers)? ('Figure I.I Cow' and 'Figure B.II Cow' instead of 'Figure
A.1 Cow' and 'Figure B.2 Cow'.)

Could you look at this weird prefix conversion behaviour Hans?



Géry Ogam


2013/11/12 Géry Ogam maggy...@gmail.com

 Hello,

 There is a numberconversion problem in caption prefixes. For instance, if
 chapter numbers are set to Romannumerals, the conversion of the caption
 prefixes depends on the presence of a section

 Minimal example:

 \setuphead[chapter][conversion=Romannumerals]
 \setupcaption[way=bychapter, prefixsegments=chapter]


 \starttext

 \chapter{Cool}
 \placefigure{A cow}{\externalfigure[cow]}

 \chapter{Cat}
 \section{Mouse}
 \section{Dog}
 \placefigure{A cow}{\externalfigure[cow]}

 \stoptext


 The previous code displays an inconsistent caption prefix (first time a
 Romannumeral, second time a number):

 I Cool
 [figure] Figure I.1 A cow

 II Cat
 2.1 Mouse
 2.2 Dog
 [figure] Figure 2.1 A cow

So I'm wondering ... Hans, since the descriptions you posted are old tex

I agree with Marco that the descriptions in the ref manual are much

I'll be happy to update the ref manual and the wiki if I can get clear
and accurate information.

We have run many examples here, including the ones on the getmarking
wiki page, trying to understand what these keywords mean.
top/bottom do appear to do what we need in an MWE, but are not working
for us in the real document, and knowing the meaning of these keywords
would be very helpful in troubleshooting the problem.

Thanks,
Lars

[NTG-context] Extra blank page after title page.

2013-11-21 Thread john Culleton

Here is the code. first the file title.tex:
-
\startstandardmakeup[doublesided=no]
(title stuff)
\stopstandardmakeup
---
and next the file copy.tex:
--
\startstandardmakeup[page=no]
(contents)
\stopstandardmakeup

MY master file contains:
\input title.tex
\input copy.tex
--
An extra blank page is inserted between the title
page and the title verso.
If I combine the two files into a new file
combine.tex, eliminate the two input lines
above and say 
\input combine.tex
instead I still get the unwanted blank page in between. 

Using MKIV and TexLive 2013 on Linux.

Unicode alpha gets translated to \greekalpha, so you need a font (like 
dejavu) that includes those glyphs.

Re: [NTG-context] Drawing chemical structures

2013-11-21 Thread Alan Braslau
Indeed, there have been a few changes,
several rationalizations of the syntax:

1. FIVE,FRONT has become FIVEFRONT
2. positions are numbered coherently with FIVE
   (previously they were shifted by one)
3. +R and -R have become LR and RR,
   to be coherent with the non-front structures.
4. Thus, +LSR and -RSR are the asymmetrically shortened
   versions drawing bonds.
5. One can still use dimensional measurements in the thousands,
   but it is preferable to use numbers close to unity, interpreted
   in units of the bond length.
6. The bounding box is by default fit (in ppchtex it was fixed
   4000x4000). Placing labels thus generally requires specifying
   a top or bottom dimension.

Below is your example, corrected.
(For some reason, unicode \alpha currently disappears - a font issue.
This worked early so is indeed a bug.)

A complete new manual has been written. We are currently hung on one or
two minor details that Hans and myself have not yet take care of - just
a question of getting around to it. Indeed, we NEED to release the new
manual...

[NTG-context] Simplefonts (new) fallback issue with Linux Libertine O

2013-11-21 Thread Rik
Fallbacks (at least the range I tested) do not work with the roman face 
of Linux Libertine O in the new (core) simplefonts implementation. I 
first thought that this might be a Libertine issue, but further testing 
makes me suspect it may be a simplefonts issue. Or perhaps I have used 
the wrong syntax with the new implementation.


Below are two MWEs, one based on the current standalone (current 
version: 2013.11.16 12:43), running on Windows 8.1 with the win64 bins, 
and the second based on an up-to-date TL13 (ConTeXt  ver: 2013.05.28 
00:36 MKIV) on the same system. Linux Libertine O is version


When I run the standalone version, the fallback characters do not appear 
between the first angles, but do appear between the bf and it angles. 
They appear between angles in all cases with the TL13 MWE.


I do not see the problem with my home-grown typescript for Libertine 
under either TL13 or the current standalone.


I do not see the problem with Junicode, Gentium Book Basic, or Gentium 
Basic. I have not yet tried other fonts.


Standalone MWE:

  \definefallbackfamily [libertine] [serif] [Gentium Plus]
[range={0x02052-0x02058},force=yes]
  \definefontfamily [libertine] [serif] [Linux Libertine O]
  \setupbodyfont[libertine]
  \def\SDQP{⁓⁗}%   Swung Dash Quad Prime U02053U02057

  \starttext
  \SDQP

  {\bf \SDQP}

  {\it \SDQP}

  {\bf{\it \SDQP}}
  \stoptext

  \usemodule[simplefonts]
  \setmainfontfallback  [Gentium Plus]
[range={0x02052-0x02058},force=yes]

 Thank you for your reaction.
 
 This is odd. Here this EM does not work with CONTEXT version 2013.11.14 
 23:22, (which uses LuaTeX version 0.76.0 as engine.)
 
 (to get this information I had of course to outcomment the \from[apurl])
 Still stranger: when I plugged the url into some other TeX-file it did work 
 with the same ConTeXt version.
 So it seems that there is some essential difference between these files 
 (apart from their content)
 Do you have any idea what that could be? Could it be a matter of text 
 encoding? (I use TeXShop as the front end.)

Can you send your problematic file. There could be a encoding problem or you 
have a special
character (nonbreakable space etc.) in your file which cause problems.

Re: [NTG-context] Numberconversion problem in caption prefixes

Am 21.11.2013 um 21:01 schrieb Géry Ogam maggy...@gmail.com:

 Thank you Wolfgang, it does what I want.
 
 However, I realised after trying the following code inside environments 
 (frontmatter, bodymatter, backmatter and appendices) that the default 
 behaviour is WRONG because the conversions of prefixes are not always 
 automatic.
 
 For instance, in the appendix environment, by default chapter numbers are 
 Characters and every prefix representing a chapter number is also a Character 
 (section prefixes, caption prefixes and so on). Now if you decide to switch 
 chapter numbers to Romannumerals, you will get something totally inconsistent 
 if you don’t do many conversions manually:
 
 
 \startsectionblockenvironment[appendix]
 \defineconversionset[romannumeralsconversionset][][R]
 \setuphead[chapter][sectionconversionset=romannumeralsconversionset]
