Not a bug, but new interface. You need:
\definemathmatrix[matrix]
[align={1:right,2:left,3:left}]
It is also possible to say: align={all:middle}. Combination of the two don't
seem to work.
basically we increment each element but a number sets the column so one
can go to a specific column; empty (whatever non number will start again
at zero)

Change your definition of \dateis (or use an additional macro) to use

The closest I can get is the "big" setting in `\setupinterlinespace`,

The \setupinterlinspace accepts also numbers to choose a multiple of the

the distance between the baselines.

Re: [NTG-context] How to override ConTeXt-SBL titles, to make all titles everywhere capitalized?
I've avoided forcing capitalization in too many places in the SBL rendering
because there are often language-specific (or, within English, even
dialect-specific) differences regarding what should be capitalized. I think
I already enforce capitalization of the first word, though:
```
\starttexdefinition titleemph #1
\emph{\Word{#1}}
\stoptexdefinition
\starttexdefinition titlequote #1
\quotation{\Word{#1}}
\stoptexdefinition
```
If you want the behavior you've described, you can change \Word to \Words
in the lines above (in publ-imp-sbl.mkvi). I probably will leave the code
as-is, however, as it seems safer to expect the user to provide the desired
capitalization in the BibTeX file.

[NTG-context] three suggestions for the statistical-charts module
Hi Tamara, Adriana and Tomáš,
this is my first sample using statistical-charts (I attach the CSV file):
\setupbodyfont[helvetica]
\usemodule[statistical-charts]
\starttext
\setupframed[dotslabels][loffset=1.1cc,
boffset=0.4cc]
\linechart[basic][yscale=.25, xscale=1,
distance=1,
xgridlinesdensity=1,
fillcolor=aquamarine,
line=yes, linecolor=shamrock,
dotscolor=shamrock,
dotswidth=5, dotslabels=yes,
axesunits=yes, xunit={Measurements},
yunit={Temperature}]%
[method=dataset, dsname=main, filename=\jobname.csv,
sep=;, cx={A2:A14},
cy=B2:B14]
\stoptext
I wonder whether this has been already proposed:
1. If the CSV file contains fields with quotes that the module reads,
compilation breaks. Would it be possible that quotes could be ignored by
the module?
2. Could you add an option to ignore the header (the first row), so that
then "cx=A" cwould work without problems?
3. I haven’t found your module in https://modules.contextgarden.net. I
think it would be great to have it there. Otherwise, users may not know
of its existence.
I have other questions, but this will be addressed in a next message.
Many thanks for your excellent work,
Pablo

Denis Maier via ntg-context schrieb am 15.01.2022 um 13:04:
Hi all,
I have sources that look like this:
%
Bla Bla Bla
Bla
, Bla Bla.
%
Typesetting this with context gives me a spurious space after the underlined
Bla in italics.
There is no spurious space, the line break is just converted to a space and I
see no reason why this shouldn't happen. To remove space before or after
certain parts of text within a paragraph you can use the \removeunwantedspace
and \ignorespaces commands.
Yes, it's absolutely true. From tex's point of view, the space is not spurious.
It's absolutely adaquate to treat the newline as a space here.
As I've outlined in my original post the problem occurs because xslt adds these
indentations here. FWIW, I finally found this solution, which seems has been
added to xslt 3.0 (after being available as a saxon extension: there's a new
attribute on xsl:output that can be used to control this:
(https://www.saxonica.com/documentation9.5/xsl-elements/output.html)
So, the solution to my problem is this:
Denis
begin example
\starttexdefinition RemovePreceding #1
\removeunwantedspaces
#1
\stoptexdefinition
\starttexdefinition RemoveFollowing #1
#1
\ignorespaces
\stoptexdefinition
\starttext
Bla \RemovePreceding{Bla} Bla
Bla \RemoveFollowing{Bla} Bla
\stoptext
end example
When only following spaces are a problem a better alternative to \ignorespace
is \autoinsertnextspace which checks the following token which ensures there is
space when the next character is punctuation.
begin example
\starttexdefinition Italic #1
\emphasized{#1}
\autoinsertnextspace
\stoptexdefinition
\starttexdefinition Underbar #1
\underbar{#1}
\stoptexdefinition
\starttext
Bla Bla Bla
\Underbar{\Italic{Bla} , Bla Bla.}
\stoptext
end example
