[NTG-context] Quotation dash issues with semantic markup
Any of you able to help me get my quotation dashes into line when automatically inserted by the semantic commands? I'm sure a number of you look at this style and cringe, but A. I'm not looking for grammatical input, and B. I'm intending this for a non-English language where the quotation dash (though still not most common) isn't as out of place. See attachment for actual examples, but I'm looking for a dash at each side of the quotation, /except/ at the very end of a paragraph. I additionally want dialogue tags (via \aside, and located within quotations) to not print their surrounding decoration if they're directly next to the larger dash of the quotation. Unfortunately, the only way I can think of doing the first is by checking if the next token's \par, and that gets thrown off by the internal logic of \quotation; I'm not at all sure how to start going about the asides. It would also be nice if a quote ending in a period carried the 'broad' spacing to the other side of the (ending) quote dash -- the dash before 'Also' in the examples would be packed on the left and broad on the right. I know this might be a lot trickier to code, and only consider it a bonus. An additional issue with \removeunwantedspaces only seems to affect the command forms. When inserted directly, the spacing acts as desired in the PDF (as expected, the XML doesn't understand the order). Also, the right |>| doesn't require either of the explicit spacing instructions (beyond being non-breaking) while the others do. The quotation dash itself only /looks/ as I want it; when I highlight and copy the text or export it to the XML backend, it's still two dashes next to each other. Instead, I'd like it to be the Unicode bar U+2015. I'm not sure if TEX/LUATEX allows that difference between appearance and interaction (I do know PDF does), so if there's some way of adding a new glyph to the font -- one that mimics the other dashes even if the font changes -- I'd love to actually use the proper codepoint. As is, that doesn't work in the standard font(s). Thanks for the help! I know it's quite a bit of an ask.

Dear Wolfgang, Now, I understand why the error messages “\texfont0 is undefined”, “ you used the started character from an undefined font family.” are appeared. Thank you for your clear explanation.

However the caption “x=[…]; y=[….]” is overlapped. ConTeXt doesn't preload fonts and only when no font was set untill \starttext latin modern is used as fallback font at this point. When you omit \starttext no font is loaded and when you use math mode (which is the case when you use funtionstyle=math) the error message appears. Another fallback in this case it to load a monospaced font in horizontal or vertical boxes which is what you set in your example when you remove \starttext.

A new problem in the caption: Since width of the figure is narrower than the width of the line "x = [0,12.555]; y = [-6,6];”, “y =“ is written over 12.555. Is there any option to suppress the caption x, y since there are numbers of x and y in the figure already? btw, you can check mp-lmtx.mpxl for the code ... it's not that hard to follow and see what the options do (mostly user interfacing) Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
