when using framed texts you run into problems with flushing, struts and the

use a Correction macro that can be nilled (since some day we may have more
control over math spacing and can fix the problem)
Here is a nice alternative:

\margintext {some text in margin}
\setupframedtexts[background={YourTrick,MyTrick}]

[NTG-context] How ConTeXt manages section's label at the bottom of a page ?
Hi all,
Considering this piece of code:
\section{A title of section}
Here we have some texts
resulting to the following theoretical situation before correction:
at the bottom of the page 1: A title of section
at the top of the page 2: Here we have some texts
Is ConTeXt smart enough to apply this kind of correction during
processing:
page 1: whatever before \section call
page 2:
A title of section
Here we have some
texts
Apparently, Taco told me on #context that this is the case... But in
fact, I have this kind on problem with a \subsubsection call.
If it is implemented, can we fine-tune the behaviour of the correction.
For example, Considering a section label followed by only two lines of
text, can we push this label+text to the newt page ?
Cheers,
Renaud

Re: [NTG-context] Question and Answer Blocks -- Feed back in one or two column mode.
Well, Here is the reason. We have question blocks, longanswer blocks, and shortanswer blocks. We are typesetiing all in 2-column mode. However, every now and then, one of the longanswer blocks is too difficult to typeset in two column mode and we'd like to switch over to 1-column mode. So, if we to texmfstart texexec --mode=long filename, with source somewhat like the following, some of our long answers, say exercises 25-30, really need to be set in one-column mode. We are looking for ideas. % Exercise #1 \beginquestion \startquestion \stopquestion \endquestion \beginlonganswer \startanswer \stopanswer \endlonganswer \beginshortanswer \startanswer \stopanswer \endshortanswer ... % Exercise #40 \beginquestion \startquestion \stopquestion \endquestion \beginlonganswer \startanswer \stopanswer \endlonganswer \beginshortanswer \startanswer \stopanswer \endshortanswer \placeanswers\kern0pt On Jul 11, 2006, at 7:07 AM, Taco Hoekwater wrote: Hi David, David Arnold wrote: All, If we have about 45 question blocks and accompanying answer blocks, how can we typset some of the answer blocks in two column mode, other of the answer blocks in one column mode, and the rest back in two column mode.

Re: [NTG-context] How ConTeXt manages section's label at the bottom of a page ?
Renaud AUBIN wrote:
Hi all,
Considering this piece of code:
\section{A title of section}
Here we have some texts
resulting to the following theoretical situation before correction:
at the bottom of the page 1: A title of section
at the top of the page 2: Here we have some texts
Is ConTeXt smart enough to apply this kind of correction during
processing:
page 1: whatever before \section call
page 2:
A title of section
Here we have some texts
Apparently, Taco told me on #context that this is the case... But in
fact, I have this kind on problem with a \subsubsection call.
If it is implemented, can we fine-tune the behaviour of the
correction. For example, Considering a section label followed by only
two lines of text, can we push this label+text to the newt page ?
normally
\section{xx}
\subsection{xx}
paragraph
should not result in dangling section titles, it only fails when the
\subsection is followed by something that add a goodbreak or something similar
or skips

Re: [NTG-context] sample={99}
On Sat, 8 Jul 2006, David Arnold wrote:
Was I surprised to find that my numbering went to multiples of 2 when

Hello,
it's always a nice exercise to create a minimal example, that shows the
problem:
\defineenumeration[question][width=fit,sample=9]
\starttext
\dorecurse{10}{\startquestion bla\stopquestion}
\stoptext
So it's perhaps just ConTeXt's way to say, that width=fit and sample=...
are contradictory.
But anyway: it seems that the sample option is completely broken, or I don't
understand it's meaning.

[NTG-context] A page for figures ?
Hi all,
I would reserve a page for several figure (i.e. \placefigure).
\placefigure[page] reserve ONE page for ONE figure...
Can \placefigure reserve a page for several figures with an option I
don't know yet ???
Since I assume \placefigure can do that for me, I don't want to use
\placefigure[page]{none}{\startcombination...\stopcombination}... ;)
TIA

Re: [NTG-context] positionoverlays problem
I more or less guess there are only a restricted number of overlays possible? Could that be a correct conclusion? The elegant way would have been being able to define separate positionoverlays for each picture, imho. However I found a practical solution in defining all items centrally within one positionoverlay. Up till now it has not failed, so I can live with that, but I cross my fingers it will still hold for a few hundred positional graphics.

The problem is that the overlays show up in the last figure only, not in the first. If I do not typeset the second overlayseries, the first does appear. It looks like only the last overlayseries is kept. Why is this and how to remedy this? I would like to help but I almost never use this stuff myself and your example code doesn't compile. Is it because both are on the same page? You effectively redefine the current page background in each \stopoverlaygraphics command.
