The following is an example. Randomization occurs with MKII, but not with MKIV. \setupsystem[random=123] \starttext \startitemize[a,random] \startitem This is item 1 \stopitem \startitem This is item 2 \stopitem \startitem This is item 3 \stopitem \startitem This is item 4

Thanks Taco. I am not sure, why it does not work for me. I am copying and pasting the log file. Could please someone take a look and let me know what the problem might be. Thanks. ** This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.43.0-2009081911  \write18 enabled.

Does not work for me. Luigi, the reason I have used the \setupsystem[random=] is to control the randomization and not have it change everytime I compile it. This is I think necessary if I want the answerkey that identfies the correct option. On Mon, Nov 16, 2009 at 9:05 AM, luigi scarso

[NTG-context] setupsystem command

2009-11-15 Thread curiouslearn
I wanted to bring this to your attention. It seems that setupsystem[random= ] command does not work with MKIV. If I use different numbers for [random= ] option the arrangement of items changes when compiled with MKII but do not change when compiled with MKIV. I tried emailing the above message
