Need Help!

I'm standing in front of the barn door ...

It seems that you can´t write it with the normal keyboard.
There is an action "stroke" but it is not bound to any key.

There are two alternatives:

You can design your own keyboard layout with Ukulele:
https://software.sil.org/ukelele/

Or you could use the "Deutsch-Europa" keylayout from:
https://github.com/fiee/tools

This Layout has been designed by Henning Hraban Ramm and offers easy 
access to greek and cyrillic letter, as well as ł and Ł (via option-o 
l and option-o L).

Thanks to all of you for your hints and comments!
I thought \l does work, why \L does not.
To type \L is faster than changing the keyboard language when I write in 
German normally.

On the Mac, if you are using an 'English' keyboard, you can hold down any letter 
for half a second or so and see a popup selection of alternate accented versions of 
that letter. Not all text editors / word processors support it but TeXShop does. No 
need for cut & paste templates.

I have not tested height, although the image I want to use would be 
portrait format.

Did you try
\setupfloat[figure][spacebefore=,]
?
or "none" or "{disable,nowhite,back}"


You can set the space only for *all* floats, e.g.

    \setupfloat[spacebefore=...,spaceafter=...]

and not for a single float type only.

The third argument with the horizontal position can only be used when 
you use two or four arguments to set texts on the left and right side

Hi Hraban,

and thanks.

setuphead[chapter,section][numberwidth=2em] or "fit"
works!

I know \setupheadertexts, but do not know what shall I write here:
\startsection[titel=Aufgabe, marking=?]
If I write marking=Aufgabe I get Aufgabe, no number! For chapter the same.

\setupheadertexts
   [] [{\getmarking[chapter]} - {\getmarking[section]}] 
[{\getmarking[chapter]} - {\getmarking[section]}] []

> Kapitel - Aufgabe


Thanks in advance

Hi Thomas,

do you know how to use \setupheadertexts?

https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setupheadertexts

I guess you're using the section level for "Aufgabe"?

Then something like {\getmarking{chapter} – \getmarking{section}} 
might fit your request.


The formatting should be possible with 
\setuphead[chapter,section][numberwidth=2em] or "fit".

the default (as per line 65 in typo-drp.mkxl) is .125\emwidth.

This is the reason why your results differ with distance set to 0pt.

It’s not unusual to get that impression. It depends on the current

So the problem is still \hfill that the last paragraph is not on

Grid is not as easy as it looks first. Low level tricks like fills 
or skips can mess it up.



Maybe \startlinecorrection helps… (No, it doesn’t.)

It also doesn’t help to add a \blank or \par after \vfill.


I know it, i tried it. And I tried \snaptogrid \vbox {}, it doesn't 
work too.


Only counting empty rows and set the number in \blank[ *big] works!



You need a fixed space (multiple of the line distance) between the 
text blocks and \vfill is a variable space which isn't what you want 
here.


TO get the desired space between the blocks you have to measure the 
height of the text at the bottom and calculate the number of lines 
which have to be added in the gap. Below is a simple solution which 
adds the required number of \blank lines.


\def\PlaceAtBottom
  {\par
   \dowithnextbox
  {\scratchdimen\dimexpr\pagegoal-\pagetotal\relax
   \ifdim\nextboxht>\scratchdimen
 \page
 \getnoflines{\dimexpr\textheight-\nextboxht\relax}%
\dontleavehmode\blank[\number\numexpr\noflines-2\relax*line]%
 \unvbox\nextbox
   \else
 \getnoflines{\dimexpr\scratchdimen-\nextboxht\relax}%
 \blank[\number\numexpr\noflines-1\relax*line]%
 \unvbox\nextbox
   \fi}
  \vbox}

\let\stopPlaceAtBottom\egroup

\def\startPlaceAtBottom
  {\PlaceAtBottom\bgroup}

\mainlanguage[de]
\setupbodyfont[libertinus, 12pt]

\setuppagenumbering
  [location={footer,middle}]

\setuplayout
  [grid=yes]

\showgrid

\starttext

\samplefile{lorem}

\startPlaceAtBottom
{\sl\samplefile{lorem}}
\stopPlaceAtBottom

\page

\dorecurse{4}{\samplefile{lorem}}

\startPlaceAtBottom
{\sl\samplefile{lorem}}
\stopPlaceAtBottom

Hans, how about adding \blank[fill] for a vertical fill that keeps the

https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Grid_typesetting is not very helpful, 
some links are dead, “someone” should change that.


The details manual has some hints about grid typesetting, but it’s not

2024-01-22 Thread Thomas Meyer

Hi Hans,

I might get a bit impatient if I have the impression that others get an 
answer faster. Sorry for that.


I thought my example couldn't be any smaller. The only answer I got 
from Wolfgang was the question for a mwe.


Now I found the missing comma and  grid works with the new version of 
ConTeXt except the last paragraph. With the older version as in MacTeX 
and without comma, the whole 3-pages-document is on grid. So the problem 
is still \hfill that the last paragraph is not on grid in the new and 
the old version (and comma).


Sorry again - and I will continue to try Context!

or whatever will get an answer.


Depends. I guess that when folk on this list assume a question to be 
answered they move on to a next one. Also, the only way to get an 
answer fast is to provide a good small example that exposes the issue.


I do not understand what you mean with "as follow up on the keyword 
thread we decided to treat bad values to equivalent to 'no'"! Which 
values are bad in this context?


Did you read Wolfgangs answers? We support "yes" but not "yes " etc 
etc. We just added a bit more rigorous test.



With the new ConTeXt version, "grid" no longer works for me! Too bad.


Let's see what Wolfgang says as he tested your mwe.


Should my attempt to use ConTeXt end here?

Hi,
first of all, sorry for my late response.
Many thanks to everyone who commented on my problem.
With the change from the archive the module runs, also under LMTX.
But: what does alphabets=3.1 or alphabets=2.6 mean? I see what is 
happening, but where can I get explanations about this and other terms?

Thanks in advance!

Or is it possible to use ochem under ConTeXt?

Is it possible to create seven-membered ring-systems with ppchtex? I 
never found something in the manual about it.
  

Probably not. Hans, how about implementing those?

Betreff: AW: [NTG-context] PPCHTeX Bug?

Hello, 

I am new here in this list and I am the one who has the problems with
ppchtex.
At first I have to thank Hraban and Tobias for their committed help!
Under LaTeX I tried the downloaded version of ppchtex.tex from
pragma-ade.nl. I got only the lines for the bonds between the atoms, no
letters for the atomic symbols. And I got the error message Tobias and
Hraban reported.
Tobias' version of ppchtex.tex works fine!
The downloaded version works fine only under ConTeXt not under LaTeX.
Is there a bug? Or am I to stupid?

Another question:
Is it possible to create seven-membered ring-systems with ppchtex? I never
found something in the manual about it.

Dear readers,
the code in question was the following:

 , the error message
 was:

 He uses an actual MikTeX (again, only problems with this, we should 
 mark it red in the wiki...) His file ppchtex.tex ends like:

   \egroup
\fi}
 
 \fi
 \protect \endinput
 
 
 Tobias Hilbricht answered, the code would work with his ppchtex.tex 
 version from TeX Live 2003, there line 3390 (second line from the end) 
 had only a lonely \fi, but the file is 3kB bigger,
 
 With Tobias' file it worked at Thomas.
 Thomas downloaded the file from pragma-ade.nl, and it doesn't work 
 again.
 
 I told him to ask at the PPCHTeX list, see above.
 
 Further Thomas wanted to draw seven-rings, and that seems not 
 supported by PPCHTeX.

Perhaps this helps to solve this problem with PPCHTeX.

Yours sincerely

AW: [NTG-context] PPCHTeX Bug?

2004-09-18 Thread Thomas Meyer
Hello, 

I am new here in this list and I am the one who has the problems with
ppchtex.
At first I have to thank Hraban and Tobias for their committed help!
Under LaTeX I tried the downloaded version of ppchtex.tex from
pragma-ade.nl. I got only the lines for the bonds between the atoms, no
letters for the atomic symbols. And I got the error message Tobias and
Hraban reported.
Tobias' version of ppchtex.tex works fine!
The downloaded version works fine only under ConTeXt not under LaTeX.
Is there a bug? Or am I to stupid?

Another question:
Is it possible to create seven-membered ring-systems with ppchtex? I never
found something in the manual about it.

Greetings 

Thomas

 some PPCHTeX code wouldn't work

Dear readers,
the code in question was the following:

--

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{etex}
%\usepackage{pstricks,pstcol,pst-plot}
\usepackage{m-pictex,color}
\usepackage{m-ch-de}
 
\begin{document}
 
% C3-Aldose, Bindungen der Aldehydgruppe rot \startchemical
  {\color{red}{\chemie[SIX,SB2,DB3]}}%
  \chemie[SIX,Z234,SUB2,ONE,Z015,SB1,SB3,SB5,SB7,%
  MOV3,Z0][H,C,O,C,OH,H,\SL{CH_2OH}]
\stopchemie
 
% C3-Aldose, Atome der Aldehydgruppe rot \startchemical
  \chemie[SIX,SB2,DB3]%
  {\color{red}{\chemie[SIX,Z234][H,C,O]}}%
  \chemie[SIX,SUB2,ONE,Z015,SB1,SB3,SB5,SB7,%
  MOV3,Z0][C,OH,H,\SL{CH_2OH}]
\stopchemie

 , the error message
 was:
 ppchtex.tex:3390: undefined control sequence
 He uses an actual MikTeX (again, only problems with this, we should 
 mark it red in the wiki...) His file ppchtex.tex ends like:
 
 \def\cpos#1#2%
{\iftrialtypesetting
   #2%
 \else
   \bgroup
   \globalpushmacro\dowithchemical
 3390
   
 \gdef\dowithchemical##1{\hpos{#1}{##1}\globalpopmacro\dowithchemical}%
   #2%
   \egroup
\fi}
 
 \fi
 \protect \endinput
 
 
 Tobias Hilbricht answered, the code would work with his ppchtex.tex 
 version from TeX Live 2003, there line 3390 (second line from the end) 
 had only a lonely \fi, but the file is 3kB bigger,
 
 With Tobias' file it worked at Thomas.
 Thomas downloaded the file from pragma-ade.nl, and it doesn't work 
 again.
 
 I told him to ask at the PPCHTeX list, see above.
 
 Further Thomas wanted to draw seven-rings, and that seems not 
 supported by PPCHTeX.

Perhaps this helps to solve this problem with PPCHTeX.

Yours sincerely

Tobias Hilbricht
