Re: [NTG-context] alignment of figures
Dear list members, Sorry to insist. I have figures extending the width of the text (which is 14cm). I want them to be aligned with the the textblock at the inside, sticking out into the outer margin (which is 2.5cm). I tried all the commands I could find or think of, but nothing worked (most of them did'nt affect the actual position, i.e. the picture extending textwidth on both sides to the same extent). I would appreciate an answer by somebody who knows, even if it is to tell me that it can't be done. Thanks a lot, Jörg.

Re: [NTG-context] processing of setvariables/getvariables again
Taco,
thanks so much! With a slight modification, your solution seems to
work! I will have to test it a bit, but for the moment, it looks very
good. Is the \appendtoks expensive in terms of TeX memory, cpu
cycles, etc., or is it a good solution for the time being?
All best, and many thanks
Thomas

In this way, you postpone all stuff that depends on the user-supplied

Re: [NTG-context] alignment of figures
Dear Hans and Taco,Thanks for the answers. I'll read "details.pdf" again...I placed the pdf file of one unfinished chapter on www.ogbasel.ch/book.html (3.5 MB). Note that Fig. 3.12 happens to be the way I want it. Why this particular figure chose to behave I don't know, putting nothing after \placefigure[] and most options [left,right,inner etc.) don't make a difference.The setuparea contains:%Textfigures (on the inside up to 0.5/textwidth)\setupfloat[figure][criterium=0.5\textwidth,default=inner]\setupcaption[figure][style=\ssx]I tried to add a second criterium (bigger than \textwidth), but not surprisingly my inventions and guesses weren't successful. Interventions within the text itself (\placefigure[] and \setupfloat[figure][]) also didn't work.Lectures start this week, and I want to distribute some chapters as handouts in order to get feedback. This explains my bothering you with another question:The subsection heads should be capitals. Setting textstyle=cap doesn't do anything. Setting style=cap gives an error (see end of message). style=slanted works, commands (\cap, \kap) don't work. \cap{some text} used in the text works.This is how I'm setting up the heads:\def\BookchapterCommand#1#2{\framed[frame=off,rightframe=on]{#1\space}\framed[frame=off]{\space#2}}\setuphead[chapter][command=\BookchapterCommand,page=right]\setuphead[subsection][style=cap (THIS IS WHERE I'M HAVING PROBLEMS),number=no]\setuphead[subsubsection][style=slanted,number=no,after=\nowhitespace]Thanks a lot, Jörg.This is the error message when inserting style=cap:) (./figures_book.tex) (./Mydefinitions.tex) (./book.tuo) (./book.tuo)(./book.tuo) (./book.tuo) (./book.tuo) (./book.tuo) (./book.tuo) (./book.tuo)(./book.tuo) (./book.tuo) (./book.tuo) (./book.tuo) (./book.tuo)fonts : using map file: cbgreek.mapfonts : using map file: texnansi-public-lm.mapfonts : using map file: original-public-vnr.mapfonts : using map file: original-public-csr.mapfonts : using map file: original-public-plr.mapfonts : using map file: original-public-lm.mapfonts : using map file: original-ams-euler.mapfonts : using map file: original-ams-cmr.mapfonts : using map file: texnansi-base.mapfonts : using map file: t5-base.mapfonts : using map file: qx-base.mapfonts : using map file: 8r-base.mapfonts : using map file: ec-base.mapfonts : using map file: ec-public-lm.mapfonts : using map file: original-base.mapsystems : begin file book at line 45(./digestion/digestion_chapter.texchapter : 1 Verdauung und Resorptionsection : 1.1 Vorbereitung in Mund und Magen!

[NTG-context] presentation styles empty front page
I have a problem with the presentation styles s-pre-xx. Since I used them previously (about 2-3 years ago) now an EXTRA blank page appears up at the front of the series of sheets. I am positive this did not occur in the past, since I did not change my files. Because I tried some different presentation styles and they all show the extra page, my suspicion is that it could originate somewhere in s-pre-00 (pre-general). However, I cannot find something suspicious in that file. What has happened? dr. H. van der Meer ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

If I put a \ifprocessingverbatim\else \fi around the table in the
