How can I create a superscript number that has exactly the same
formatting as a footnote, but which won't create a footnote. I tried
\high{}, which I believe should be the way to superscript text, but if
you compile this, you can see the first "1" and second "1" have entirely
different formatting. How do I make the first one have the same exact
formtating as the real footnote?
Footnotes apply the \tx style to the number in the running text and to
get the same text size with \high you need \tx before the argument.
Another solution is to create your own \high command where you set the
text size as default value but now you have to pass \txx as value
because by default \high already uses style=\tx. When you now combine
the default \tx from \high and the \tx from the footnote you get the
\txx size (which is used in the custom \high command).
begin example
\definehigh[fakenotesymbol][style=\txx]
\starttext
\startlines
test\footnote{\unknown}
test\high{\tx 1}
test\fakenotesymbol{1}
\stoplines
\stoptext
end example

[NTG-context] Re: Define a new command that inherits from multiple other command options
ai2472206...@yeah.net schrieb am 25.04.2024 um 10:24:
hi!
I'm new to ConTeXt. I want to define a command with sidenote function. This
[setupsidenote] command inherits the options of [setupmargindata],
[setupcounter] and [setupframed]. just like [setupenumeration] inherits the
option of [setupcounter].
I've defined the following sidenote command by searching, and I know how to
define a new option for it. But what I don't know is how to get it to inherit
the options of other commands and perform these features correctly.
Any clue is warmly welcome.
Hi ???,
not all commands provide a way to inherit their options but the "framed"
and "counter" mechanism supports it.
To use the framed mechanism with your own command replace
\installcommandhandler with \installframedcommandhandler. This creates a
command named \inherited...framed which can be customized with the
setups of the new namespace.
begin example
\unprotect
\installnamespace {sidenote}
\installframedcommandhandler \sidenote {sidenote} \sidenote
\protect
\starttext
\inheritedsidenoteframed{Text in a frame!}
\setupsidenote[framecolor=red,width=8cm,height=2cm]
\inheritedsidenoteframed{Text in a frame!}
\stoptext
end example
To use the counter mechanism with your commands you have to first use
\installcounterassociation to create the two new commands
\register...counter (this ensures the default counter values are used
when you don't set anything) and \synchronize...counters (which updates
the counter values when you use the setup of your own command).
Unlike the framed mechanism this no longer works with the root instance
of your own commands because we create a new counter only when you
create a instance (with \define...) of the new command.
begin example
\unprotect
\installnamespace{sidenote}
\installcommandhandler \sidenote {sidenote} \sidenote
\installcounterassociation{sidenote}
\appendtoks
\registersidenotecounter\currentsidenote
\definecounter[\currentsidenote]%
\to \everydefinesidenote
\appendtoks
\synchronizesidenotecounters
\to \everysetupsidenote
\protect
\starttext
% create a new sidenote instance with a associated counter
\definesidenote[example]
\start % use grouping to keep the sidenote instance local
\def\currentsidenote{example}% set the sidenote instance to example
\incrementcounter[example]% increment the example/sidenote counter
\convertedcounter[example]% print the example/sidenote counter
\stop
% change the number format of the example/sidenote counter
\setupsidenote[example][numberconversion=romannumerals]
\start
\def\currentsidenote{example}
\incrementcounter[example]
\convertedcounter[example]
\stop
\stoptext
end example

Below is a different solution to your problem with works without

which make it possible to add a linebreak in the output.
With \blank options (samepage) you can avoid pagebreaks between stanzas.

Thanks for your reply. The kanji part requires a specific font and typescript file, which I defined on my own computer but forgot to add to this example. This is something I didn't take into account. It's true, I need to think about what exactly my command needs, not build an all-powerful command. It's my poor consideration. ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net ___

Your example didn't work for me - none of the Chinese|Japanese[1] characters showed. AFAIK there is no way to "inherit" functionality. You still need to write \setupsidenote to call \setupcounter, \setupframed at the right points to achieve the right effects. What you can do is have \setupsidenote accept all options in one big long list and then pass the ones that apply to setupcounter to each use of \setupcounter, pass on the ones that apply to setupframed to each use of \setupframed and so on. Thsi is releatively easy in Lua where you could define a list of all possible commands and which macro they apply to then loop through it looking to see if that option had been supplied and building a set of parameters for \setupframed, \setupcounter etc. Hope this makes sense. But I feel there's probably a better way - it's a lot of effort to go to in order to have a single "does it all macro" instead of calling two or three macros each time.

[NTG-context] Re: wrong spacing after command with optional arguments

Dear list,
I have the following sample:
\starttext
\def\MyCommand{\doquadruplegroupempty\doMyCommand}
\def\doMyCommand#1#2#3#4{%
\iffourthargument
#4%
\orelse\ifthirdargument
#3%
\else

\MyCommand{}{second}{third}{fourth},\\
\MyCommand{}{second}{third}{fourth} e,\\
\MyCommand{}{second}{third},\\
\MyCommand{}{second}{third} e,\\
\MyCommand{}{second},\\
\MyCommand{}{second} e,\\
\stoptext
I don‘t know why only the command gets the space after right only when
the four arguments are provided.
What is wrong in my definition above?
There is nothing wrong, this is just a side effect of the scanner used
with the \do...groupempty commands. To have more control about this
behavior use the \tolerant modifier for \def to change it.
begin example
\tolerant\def\CommandA#_#*#_#*#_#*#_{(#1)(#2)(#3)(#4)}
\tolerant\def\CommandB#_#,#_#,#_#,#_{(#1)(#2)(#3)(#4)}
\starttext
A: \CommandA{a} xxx\par
B: \CommandB{a} xxx\blank
A: \CommandA{a}{b} xxx\par
B: \CommandB{a}{b} xxx\blank
A: \CommandA{a}{b}{c}xxx\par
B: \CommandB{a}{b}{c}xxx\blank
A: \CommandA{a}{b}{c}{d} xxx\par
B: \CommandB{a}{b}{c}{d} xxx\blank
\stoptext
end example
Another way to avoid this is to create a command with a key-value list.
begin example
\tolerant\def\Command[#1]%
{\begingroup
\getdummyparameters[#1]%
\doifsomething{\dummyparameter{a}}{(\dummyparameter{a})}%
\doifsomething{\dummyparameter{b}}{(\dummyparameter{b})}%
\doifsomething{\dummyparameter{c}}{(\dummyparameter{c})}%
\doifsomething{\dummyparameter{d}}{(\dummyparameter{d})}%
\endgroup}
\starttext
\Command[a=1,b=2,c=3,d=4] xxx\par
\Command[a=1,c=3] xxx\par
\stoptext
end example

[NTG-context] \par and \startlines
Hi,
I'm trying to typeset a poem from XML, but I can't figure out how to make the
inbetween key working here.
As the source is XML, I cannot just add an empty line to start a new group of
lines inside \startlines...\stoplines. I guess, there must be a command to do
that, but \par seems to have no effect here.
How can this be done?
Best,

Hi Hans and Taco, @Hans, I compiled by commenting and uncommenting one component at a time; it is component 5 which interferes with the metapost code of component 14 All I have to do now is find out what the cause is.

Possibly related: I noticed last week that mkxl does not update the legacy

Since I've become an expert on tuc files since yesterday (ha!): if I
compare the tuc from a mkiv and a mkxl run, I see that mkiv produces an
entry ["lastrealpage"]=9 in the references table, mkxl doesn't. This
appears to be the relevant bit, and it is connected with the replacement
of realpageno by c_realpageno in line 638 of strc-reg.lmt
references.lastrealpage = texgetcount(c_realpageno)
But that's as far as I could get...

[NTG-context] Define a new command that inherits from multiple other command options
hi!
I'm new to ConTeXt. I want to define a command with sidenote function. This
[setupsidenote] command inherits the options of [setupmargindata],
[setupcounter] and [setupframed]. just like [setupenumeration] inherits the
option of [setupcounter].
I've defined the following sidenote command by searching, and I know how to
define a new option for it. But what I don't know is how to get it to inherit
the options of other commands and perform these features correctly.
Any clue is warmly welcome.

Sigh, as always: just when I had hit “send,” I figured it out:

But I’m not sure if there is an easier/better way. And I still would like to

[NTG-context] Re: Why don't footnotes appear in floats or figures?
Okay, I've been trying many things with this \startpostponing code--if I
understand what's happening, its moving the figures to a later page. I'm not
sure that's quite ideal, its not fully working with my actual documents, and
leaves lots of empty white space, when I'm already in a situation where I need
to reduce page count.
So I thought an alternative route:
(1) have a code that checks "what is current footnote number?" that sets that
as a variable
\def\currentfoodnote{\somevariableincontextthatgetsfoodnotenumber}
(2) adjust my placefigure macro such that the footnote is outside the
placefigure, but color it white so its invisible:
\define\showafigure{
\cite[author2019]<--somehow hide this invisible
\placefigure{Caption\superscript{\currentfootnote}}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}
<--this places a superscript number inside the caption, but it isn't the true
marker(3) in the caption, place a superscript number with value to
\currentfootnoteIts basically a fake footnote, just a superscript number of the
same value as the real footnote.
Shouldn't this result work? Any idea how I can get current footnote value?

[NTG-context] Combine lua and btx setup, was: Re: Customize citation format of a bibliography (use the short form as reference format)
Here is a solution for the first part of my question. This is based on
https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg101156.html
and try and error based on publ-imp-aps.mkvi and publ-imp-apa.mkvi:
It display now the citation _and_ numbering labels in the short form:
```

title = {TEX and METAFONT. New directions in typesetting},
year = {1979},
publisher = {Addison-Wesley},
}
@Article{someother,
author = {Some Person and Some Otherperson},
title = {Another title},
year = {1900},
}
\stopbuffer
% enable tracing
\enabletrackers[publications, publications.crossref, publications.details,
publications.cite, publications.strings]
\usebtxdataset[main][testdata.buffer]
\usebtxdefinitions[aps]
\setupbtx[dataset=main]
\definebtxrendering[bibrendering][aps][dataset=main, numbering=short]
\setupbtxlist[aps][
alternative=b,
distance=.5em,

\setupbtx[aps:cite][alternative=short]
\starttext
Knuth developed \TeX \cite[knuth1]
Several persons said something \cite[someother].
\placelistofpublications[bibrendering]
\stoptext
```
The remaining part now is to mark publications of Knuth in a different way.
I have tried this and failed. Here is my code so far:
```
\startluacode
function render_cite(short, author)
print(author)
if author:lower():find("knuth") then
context("[>" .. short .. "]")
else
context("[" .. short .. "]")
end
end
\stopluacode
\definebtx[aps:cite:special][aps:cite]
\startsetups btx:aps:cite:special
\btxcitereference
\ctxlua{render_cite([==[\btxflush{year}]==], [==[\btxflush{author}]==])}
\stopsetups
% use it with \cite[special][knuth1]
```
This has several problems:
- \btxflush{short} does not work as I expected that. How can I get the short
form?
- \btxflush to pass arguments to lua does not work as intended. On the lua side
the
variable "author" resolves to "\btxflushauthor{author}" and not to "D. E.
Knuth".
How can I pass the data?
I use Lua only because I find it more convenient as a programming language. If a
plain tex solution is simpler, I'm happy to use that.
Another question that came up while studying the source code:
What effect have \c!, \s!, and \v!? These commands exist a lot in the above
cited files.

[NTG-context] Re: Why are ConTeXt-SBL endnotes empty?
Changing location=none to location=text still left me with the bullet points
appearing in a big list at the end of my chapter, but without any messages in
them.

Hi Joel,
the bibliography part doesn’t work for me at all.
But notes may be placed as their location is text (and you add a real
footnote).
This works fine:
\setupnote[footnote][location=text]
\starttext
\input knuth
\footnote{Footnote}
\cite[clark1989]
\placenotes[footnote]
\startchapter[title=Bibliography]
\placelistofpublications
\stopchapter
\stoptext
I never used a bibliography in ConTeXt, so that part is left to you.
I hope it helps,
Pablo

[NTG-context] Re: Why don't footnotes appear in floats or figures?
I've managed to get a minimum working example. If you check, you'll see the
5th footnote inside a placefigure doesn't render anywhere:
\starttext
\input knuth
\placefigure{Caption\footnote{message
A}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}
\input knuth
\placefigure{Caption\footnote{message
B}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}

\placefigure{Caption\footnote{message

\input knuth
\placefigure{Caption\footnote{message
E}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}
\input knuth
\placefigure{Caption\footnote{message
F}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}
\stoptext
Is this the correct way to be using the \startpostponing code (see example

you need to consider the complications of such notes ...
- tex needs to take the notes into account when determining a page break
- it does so by the insert mechanism
- when floats can't be placed they also become inserts (top and bottom)
- when there are inserts in inserts th eproblem becomes more complex (so
notes inside floats)
- in traditional tex deeply burried inserts disappearm less so in lmtx
There are things that are hard to get right. This works:
\startpostponing
\startplacefigure[location=here,title={test \footnote{oeps 1}}]
\blackrule[width=1tw]
here
\footnote{hello 1} and
\footnote{hello 2} and
\footnote{hello 3} done
\stopplacefigure
\stoppostponing
\dorecurse{10}{\samplefile{tufte}\par}
Because here the inserts (notes) will migrate but even then one can get
them out of order (unless we renumber, which then is sensitiev for
oscillation).
I occasionally wonder if top floats could be done more directly but
bottom notes still would have an out-of-sync problem

[NTG-context] floats re-ordering and numbering
Hi,
I've found that occasionally the order of floats change, but the numbering
still reflects the order in the input file. Is that the intended behaviour? Is
there a way to number to floats according to their order in the (visual) output?
Best,

It seems that you can place the figures somehow
(https://www.pragma-ade.nl/general/qrcs/setup-en.pdf#page=169):
See the extreme example:
\showframe\showgrid\showstruts
\setupexternalfigures
[location={local,global,default}]
\starttext
\placefigure{A Cow}{\externalfigure[cow][
height=.5\textheight,
]}
\placefigure{A Cow}{\externalfigure[cow][
height=.3\textheight,
%height=.4\textheight,
]}
\placefigure{A Cow}{\externalfigure[cow][
width=3cm,
%width=2cm,

\placefigure[inleft]{A Cow}{\externalfigure[cow][width=2cm]}
\placefigure[inright]{A Cow}{\externalfigure[cow][width=2cm]}

Hi Denis,
maximum widht or height work fine, but their minimum counterparts seem
not to be working at all:
\showframe

\doloopoverlist{none, width, height, maxwidth, maxheight}

Hi,
another graphics/floats question: consider the following example
%
\setupexternalfigures
[location={local,global,default}]
\starttext
\placefigure{A Cow}{\externalfigure[cow][
height=.5\textheight,
]}
\placefigure{A Cow}{\externalfigure[cow][

\placefigure{A Cow}{\externalfigure[cow][

\placefigure{A Cow}{\externalfigure[cow][width=2cm]}
\placefigure{A Cow}{\externalfigure[cow][width=2cm]}
\stoptext%
On the first page, the images appear stacked above each other while on the
second page they appear next to each other.
It took me some time to reproduce this behaviour, and I can't claim to
understand what is happening. But it seems to be related to the specific
widths of the images. When I change them to other values the behaviour
disappears. Is this a bug? Anything I can do about this?
Best
