[NTG-context] Background on the 1st page only, page numbering from the 2nd page
Hello,
how to specify the page background for the first page only and how to start
page numbering from the second page?
Here's my trial:
\defineoverlay[Bkg][{\externalfigure[cow]}]
\setupbackgrounds[paper][background=Bkg]
%\setuppagenumbering[state=2]
\starttext
\dorecurse{5}{\input knuth}
\stoptext
- The background is on all pages, so is the page numbering.
Any ideas?
Best regards,
Lukas

Hi everyone,
I am experiencing a problem with \inmargin{some text} in \itemized lists. I am

if one uses the \inmargin macro just prior to the \item macro, the in-margin
text is typeset against the previous line, not the line with the \item. Minimal
example.
\starttext

That seems fair enough and even makes sense on some level. If however, one
reverses the two macros, like so:
\item\inmargin{Duck} This paragraph has a duck inmargin comment
the leading space just after the closing brace is actually printed. I take this
to be a bug, or is this by design? The only way I can around this is to not use
a space, like so:
\item\inmargin{Duck}This paragraph has a duck inmargin comment
But I don't find that to be a satisfying solution. After all I am using ConTeXt
because I am a bit pedantic about text, even the source code in this case.
the magin note has to anchor somewhere so the second approach is the
best as after all \item can start with doing spacing things
concerning the space ... sometimes you want a space so gobbling the next
one is debatable; you can of course wrap the command, as in:
\def\myinmargin#1{\inmargin{#1}\ignorespaces}

It's \setuppagenumbering [state=stop|start], the state command
doesn't accept a number.

Re: [NTG-context] Problem with \inmargin on \item lines
Hi,
It is not a bug. It is standard TeX: a space counts after } and is ignored
immediately after a control sequence such as \item. To override either, you
have to be explicit, \ignorespaces as Hans suggested in your case and \
(backslash-space) in the other to put a space in. My preferred, idiosyncratic,
pedantic way to ignore spaces in this case is a comment symbol and newlines:
\starttext
\startitemize
\item
This is just a normal completely innocent paragraph against which one will be
able to judge the amount of indentation of the next paragraph.
\item\inmargin{Duck}%
This paragraph has a duck inmargin comment
\stopitemize
\stoptext
But I like newlines in my code, probably because I started editing text on
24x80 crt that would show only the first 80 characters of a line.

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Indentation for beginner
I am putting together a needed resume and learning context at the same time.
What I want is or should be simple, but I am not familiar with which options to
set.
I am using the following, because I don't want to use any margin for some
forgotten reason, just text area. I am currently using this: (abbreviated)
%
% relevant snippet
%
\definedescription[rsection][location=left,width=3.0cm,headstyle=\sc]
\rsection{Education} \startitemize[5,packed] \item bozo the clown
\item is here today.
\stopitemize
\rsection{Work\\Experience} \startitemize[5,packed]
\item UCLA BoA
\item LMU BSCS
\stopitemize
...
%
% end snippet
%
The above is fine, except that I want the items to be level with the resume
section header. As it is now the items come out below the resume section
description, like this:
EDUCATION
* bozo the clown
* is here today
WORK
EXPERIENCE
* UCLA BoA
* LMU BSCS
-
%Whereas I want it to be like this:
EDUCATION* bozo the clown
* is here today
WORK * UCLA BoA
EXPERIENCE * LMU BSCS
% above or below
WORK
EXPERIENCE * UCLA BoA
* LMU BSCS
%
In other words I want the first item of an itemization to line up with the
resume section description header's first or last line. I am thinking it
might be to set someing in the before, after, or command or to set maybe
one to /nop out whatever
is there currently. I don't know how to find out what commands these default
to, if any, but even if I knew at this point, I would still be stuck. Though
I'd like to know about that to.
Any advice on this would be appreciated of how to get this desired format would
be much appreciated.
Regards,
hwitloc

Re: [NTG-context] Background on the 1st page only, page numbering from the 2nd page
... One more question. Let's have three cases - some of them hide the page
number on the first page, some of them don't.
The question is - why:
1 - OK, no page number on page 1
\def\MyPageNumber#1{\doifelse{\pagenumber}{1}{}{\pagenumber}} % Testing
\pagenumber
\setuppagenumbering[location={footer,middle},command=\MyPageNumber]
\starttext %\noheaderandfooterlines % COMMAND NOT USED
\dorecurse{5}{\input knuth\par}
\stoptext
2 - BAD, page number IS on page 1
\def\MyPageNumber#1{\doifelse{#1}{1}{}{\pagenumber}} % Testing #1 instead of
\pagenumber
\setuppagenumbering[location={footer,middle},command=\MyPageNumber]
\starttext %\noheaderandfooterlines % COMMAND NOT USED
\dorecurse{5}{\input knuth\par}
\stoptext
3 - OK, no page number on page 1
\def\MyPageNumber#1{\doifelse{#1}{1}{}{\pagenumber}} % Testing #1 instead of
\pagenumber
\setuppagenumbering[location={footer,middle},command=\MyPageNumber]
\starttext \noheaderandfooterlines % COMMAND IN USE
\dorecurse{5}{\input knuth\par}
\stoptext
So -
1) What exactly does \noheaderandfooterlines do?
2) Why testing the #1 argument in the case 2 doesn't work?
TIA.

Re: [NTG-context] Background on the 1st page only, page numbering from the 2nd page
Thanks for the code -
- actually, I'm not trying to create a typical book title page but just a kind of
cover page.
But I'll keep your suggestion in mind, I may use it in the future.
Thanks anyway.

When you use “\pagenumber” you check the numeric value of the counter but when
you check
against “#1” you check again a formatted version of the pagenumber which can be
colored or
or even be a roman numeral which you have set with the conversion key.

[NTG-context] MetaPost circular_shade Command
The command circular_shade(fullcircle scaled 4in,0,white,red); in MetaPost does not act as I think it should. It performs a gradient fill starting at the center of the circle by filling this center in white (which is expected), and changing the color as the radius/diameter changes (which is also expected), but the final radius appears to have a RGB color of about (1,0.29,0.29) which is not red (thus is unexpected) since red = (1,0,0). However, the command circular_shade(unitsquare shifted (-0.5,-0.5) scaled 4in,0,white,red); creates a gradient filled square whose center is white and whose northeast, northwest, southwest, and southeast corner are red (as somewhat expected) and thus whose east, north, west, and south tip are about (1,0.29,0.29) like the circle. I would appreciate an explanation of why this acts like it does, and (more importantly), let me know how I can get a gradient filled circle whose center gets filled with a RGB color c and outer radius color d. Clearly, circular_shade(fullcircle scaled 4in,0,c,d); does not do this.

[NTG-context] Font for MetaPost graphics
The wiki claims setting up an MPenvironment is enough to change the font in MetaPost graphics: \startMPenvironment%[global] \switchtobodyfont [sans] \stopMPenvironment \starttext This should be serif. \startMPcode draw textext(This should be in sans.); \stopMPcode \stoptext However, this has no effect. All text is in default serif font. If [global] is provided, all text is in sans font. I am aware of a similar issue in a thread last year¹, but the solution didn't really address the problem. textext(\sans This should be sans.) works here, but the point is that the MPenvironment fails. Why is that?

Re: [NTG-context] MetaPost circular_shade Command
It seems that I should do something like fill fullcircle scaled 4in withshade define_circular_shade(origin,origin,0 ,2in,white,red); Sorry for the premature question.

This is better (but clumsy): \start \switchtobodyfont[sans] \startMPcode draw textext(This should be sans); \stopMPcode \stop Here serif again. The text in Metapost adapts to the text set in ConTeXt. But the font setup should *only* be set for MetaPost, not regular text. Does that mean, that MPenvironment is deprecated and does not work at all?

Hi,
Line numbering does not respect the parameters given with
\startlinenumbering. For example:
Line numbering is a delayed operation. As they are handled when the page is
constructed the settings of that moment apply. In practice only the start key
is handled when you pass settings to \start (the only reason for having
the second argument is number start/restart etc). If you want different
renderings, the best is to define a specific instance of line numbering.
A little background: In the initial version of the vim module, I used to
do line numbering manually (each line started with \NL macro, which
expanded to a number in an appropriate style depending on whether line
numbering was enabled or not. When I rewrote the module to use the filter
module, I also rewrote the line numbering mechanism to use ConTeXt's
inbuilt line numbering macros, but I cannot get them to work.
Consider the following example. I want to define an environment, which,
amongst other things does line numbering. I want the user to control the
style and color of line numbering, so I define keys numberstyle and
numbercolor, which are then passed on to the line numbering macros. The
most obvious implementation of this does not work.
\definenamespace
[whatever]
[
type=module,
name=whatever,
command=yes,
setup=yes,
parent=whatever,
]
\appendtoks
\definelinenumbering
[\currentwhatever]
[
color=\whateverparameter{numbercolor},
style=\whateverparameter{numberstyle},
]%
\setvalue{start\currentwhatever}{\dostartwhatever[\currentwhatever]}%
\setvalue{stop\currentwhatever}{\dostopwhatever}%
\to\everydefinewhatever
% For illustration. The actual macro is more complicated.
\def\dostartwhatever[#1]%
{\startlinenumbering[#1]}
\def\dostopwhatever
{\stoplinenumbering}
\definewhatever[testing][numbercolor=red,numberstyle=bold]
\starttext
\starttesting
\input knuth
\stoptesting
\stoptext
When I run it, the line number is not styled. Any idea on what I can do
differently?
