Hello,
I finally found a solution (which doesn't use \description or any other
Ctx command) (and which may be clumsy - I'm not so good in tex
programming):
----
\def\IndByText#1{%
\newbox\IndByTextBox
\newdimen\IndByTextBoxWd
\setbox\IndByTextBox\hbox{#1}%
\IndByTextBoxWd=\wd\IndByTextBox
\advance\leftskip by\IndByTextBoxWd
\def\Left##1{%
\hskip-\IndByTextBoxWd
\hbox to\IndByTextBoxWd{##1\hfill}%
\ignorespaces
}%
\ignorespaces
\setupindenting[no]%
}
\starttext
\input knuth
\bgroup
\IndByText{\bold{Abcdef~}}
\Left{\bold{Abcdef}}
\input knuth
\bgroup
\IndByText{\bold{Klmnopqr~}}
\Left{\bold{Klmnopqr}}
Something
\Left{\bold{Shorter}}
\input knuth
\egroup
\egroup
\stoptext
----
The only thing I cannot get rid of is a warning in the log:
"
warning > \box \IndByTextBox is already defined (\relax it first)
warning > \dimen \IndByTextBoxWd is already defined (\relax it
first)
"
How & where to "relax the box"?
that would eventually make you run out of boxes and dimens
just move
\newbox\IndByTextBox
\newdimen\IndByTextBoxWd
outside the macro
Best regards,

Hello,
I'm trying to get nested descriptions (using "tab") to form a
"cascade". The result should look like:
AAA ababababababab
ababababababab
BBB ababababab
ababababab
CCC ababab
ababab
<--> indent (margin?) of the first nested description in relation to
its parent
should equal width of parent's head (+ distance?), i.e. width of
"AAA ",
<--> indent (margin?) of the second nested description in
relation to its parent
should equal width of parent's head (+ distance?), i.e.
width of "BBB ",
<------> so it should be width of "AAA " + 'width of "BBB " in total.
I'm not able to achieve this. My code so far is (and I also played
with various combinations of alternative, margin, hang, indent...):
----
\starttext
A
\bgroup
\setuptab[headstyle={\bold\tt},sample=123,width=fit,alternative=left]
\starttab{abc}
\input knuth
\starttab{def}
\input knuth
\stoptab
\stoptab
\egroup
\bgroup
\setuptab[headstyle={\bold\tt},sample=123456,width=fit,alternative=hanging]
\starttab{ghijkl}
\input knuth
\starttab{mnopqr}
\input knuth
\stoptab
\stoptab
\egroup
\stoptext
----
- Paragraphs of "abc" and "def": size of indentation of the paragraphs
is good in relation to width of head, but paragraph "def" is not
"cascaded".
- Paragraphs "ghijkl" and "mnopqr" are "cascaded" well; but width of
(margin?) is any - it is not related to the width of the sample text.
So how to combine both approaches to get the desired result?
Best regards,
Lukas
