[NTG-context] Disappearing headers
Hello, all--
I am trying to format a book such that the book title appears in the
header of each left-hand page, and the chapter title appears in the
header of each right-hand page. I think (though I haven't decided for
sure) that I want each chapter to start on a right-hand page. It seems
that, when chapters are forced to begin on right-hand pages, the book
title fails to appear on the first blank page inserted to move the
chapter start, and on all subsequent pages.
Here are the commands I am using related to headers:
\setuphead [title]
[align=left,textstyle={\switchtobodyfont[BernhardModern]\bf}]
\setuphead [chapter]
[page=right,head=nomarking,after=\blank]
\setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided,location=margin]
\setupheader [style=\it]
\setupheadertexts [] [chapter] [title] []
% reverse order, as mentioned in my earlier post
With all these commands enabled, I get the effect I want: chapters begin
on righthand pages, the title and chapter title appear, respectively, in
the left and right page headers (adjacent to the page numbers, with the
page numbers toward the outside edge of the page). But, as I said, the
book title stops appearing as soon as a blank page is inserted to move
the chapter start to the right.
If I comment out *both* the \setuphead [chapter] command and the
\setuppagenumbering command, the title continues to be displayed
throughout the text. If I enable either of the two, the title disappears
again. By the way, it appears that this \setuppagenumbering command has
a side-effect of forcing chapters to begin on the right. Is that really
a good idea? It's certainly surprising to me.
So, am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

I use the packages lettrine, fancyhdr and ledmac, and from time to time I have a look at the way ConTeXt does the things I need. Dropped caps (versals) is possible with ConTeXt, finetuneable and not more difficult than with lettrine in LaTeX. Documentation for ConTeXt is hidden in the file supp-fun.tex in the base system. Creating complex running headers is easier in ConTeXt than in LaTeX, because the ConTeXt marking mechanism allows more than just leftmark and rightmark (and the two extramarks provided by the package extramarks), as in LaTeX. Documentation is in the main manual. However, there was a problem with the ConTeXt marking mechanism when using a two column layout, which had to be overcome by an "email bug fix" by Hans Hagen. I have not tried yet to create a complex critical edition with ConTeXt, with more than one footnote apparatus, which is easy with ledmac.

hm, you could just omit #5 and it would probably work
otherwise you would need to do do a multi step like:

\obeylines\doXXX{#1}{#2}{#3}{#4}}
\long\def\doXXX#1#2#3#4#5%
{\place[]{}{}\scantokens{#5}}
or so (untested and probably not correct)

\pdfliteral (pdftex primitives) and propagation to mpost (which is EPS
not PDF generator) has no sence. Only reference to color is needed and

only things that are needed in btex ... etex or textext(..) need to be

I try to achieve transparently filled objects using the metaobj package.
However, transparency is ignored completely in the output, I just get a
normal white. Here is my test file:
\setupcolors[state=start]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=color,backgroundcolor=red]
\startMPenvironment[global]
\definecolor[Durchsichtig][r=1.0,g=1.0,b=1.0,t=0.0,a=normal]
\stopMPenvironment
\startreusableMPgraphic{test}
input metaobj;
setObjectDefaultOption("Box")("fillcolor")(\MPcolor{Durchsichtig});
newBox.test(btex Transparent? etex) "filled(true)";
Obj(test).c=origin;
drawObj(test);
\stopreusableMPgraphic
\starttext
\reuseMPgraphic{test}
\stoptext
If I use the fillcolor as an argument to the object
newBox.test(btex Transparent? etex) "filled(true)"
"fillcolor(\MPcolor{Durchsichtig})";
can you try
fillcolor \MPcolor{...}
or maybe
color ; := \MPcolor{...} ; fillcolor() ;
I get error messages from the mpost run. So it seems that metaobj and
\MPcolor don't like each other.
Any ideas how to circumvent this problem?

\pardir TLT (LR paragraphs)

though they are not really needed to create parameter options that give me

stuff is way over my ahead and I could not make any progress:-(
NOTE: in the second set of RL footnotes, note that the footnote markers get

markers using
\setupfootnotes[numbercommand={\switchtobodyfont[omarab]}]
but then we lose the default
\setupfootnotes[numbercommand=\high]
and the Arabic-script numerals are again pushed into the textblock.

what I want. I played around with some of the macros in core-not.tex but
that stuff is way over my ahead and I could not make any progress:-(
NOTE: in the second set of RL footnotes, note that the footnote markers
get pushed into the textblock. In the third set of RL fotnotes, we get
Arabic markers using
\setupfootnotes[numbercommand={\switchtobodyfont[omarab]}]
but then we lose the default
\setupfootnotes[numbercommand=\high]
and the Arabic-script numerals are again pushed into the textblock.
I look forward to your suggestions
Best

[NTG-context] Shading transparency / missing linear_shade variant
Hi all,
experimenting with transparencies, I have obviously come to a
limitation: color shading does not work for transparent colors. What I
have in mind is a bar filled with a color gradient, starting from a
certain (non-transparent) color and ending transparent, i.e. vanishing
into the background. However, the transparent color appears just black.
Furthermore, the shading variants for linear_shade do not correspond
with those listed in the metafun manual, page 180. Variant 2 is missing
and behaves like variant 3 should.
Example:
\setupcolors[state=start]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=color,backgroundcolor=red]
\startMPenvironment[global]
\definecolor[HeadLineColor][r=0,g=0,b=1]
\definecolor[Transparent][r=1,g=1,b=1,t=0,a=normal]
\stopMPenvironment
\startreusableMPgraphic{test}
numeric u; u=3cm;
path p;
p := unitsquare xscaled u yscaled u cornered (u/10);
for i=0 upto 3 :
linear_shade(p
shifted(i*u,0),i,\MPcolor{HeadLineColor},\MPcolor{Transparent});
endfor;
\stopreusableMPgraphic
\starttext
\reuseMPgraphic{test}
\stoptext

During a texexec run, inline MP graphics are automatically generated and converted in case of PDF output, provided that you have configured your texexec to do so. Definitions enclosed in \startMPenvironment ... \stopMPenvironment are made available not only inside MP graphics, but also for the main document by the [global] option. In this case, I use it to maintainn color consistency between metapost and tex. Without \startMPenvironment, the color definition would be available in context only, not for inline graphics. -- Eckhart ___ ntg-context mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

A common workaround to this problem (which Hans should fix, though) is to force the list to not be empty. Say for example that parameter #1 of your macro accepts the user list of key=values. you would then use \rawgetparameters[something=else,#1] This way, even if #1 is empty it will work. -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta ___ ntg-context mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Re: [NTG-context] key=value parameters
Thank you Taco.
I can imagine next solutions:
1) Do not use predefined keys in my macros, e.g. textWidth instead of
textwidth [=user unfriendly].
If you decide on this solution, please use Textwidth instead (at least
something that starts with a capital letter).
OK, but I do not like this solution.
2) Use original (mostly Dutch) keys inside of my macros
[=developer unfriendly].
In this case, the "correct" solution is to use the interfaced versions
like \c!tekstbreedte et al. inside your macros. This is unwieldy if you
are not very familiar with the ConTeXt source, but it allows multilingual
input (very user friendly).
That is true I was not familiar about \c!... But problem is not in
familiarity with ConTeXt source but Dutch language. One should write
\c!tekstbreedte instead of \c!textwidth. For non Dutch it means all the
time search at mult-*.tex. I know, solution is to learn Dutch... Hans
has plan to rewrite all code to English, hasn't it?
Very good idea.
Multilingual input:
- In late 90. when I met ConTeXt first time, I was very confused. Some
macros work, something was ignored. It took several days to discover
that I have to write (in my czech format) \nastavbarvy instead of
\setupcolors. After that I quickly switch to english interface.
- Multilingual interface is a nice example of ConTeXt capability, but a
bit inpractical. It keeps from source code exchange. I can imagine some
transtlators, but...
- I think there is no many ConTeXt users (even any?) that use non
English or non Dutch interface (languages in which reference manual is
written).
3) Define:
\unprotect
\def\getparametersALL{\dogetparameters\dosetvalueALL}
Actually there is no need to define anything, you can just use \rawgetparameters
instead of \getparameters.
Great, but unfortunately it does not work with empty parameter list [].
No I have no time but I will look for better definition of
\rawgetparameters and \rawsetparameter.

[NTG-context] side figure and typing
Hi all !
let us imagine we have defined the following command:
\def\SideFigure#1#2#3#4#5%
{
\placefigure[#1]{#2}{\externalfigure[#3][width=#4\makeupwidth]}
#5
}
which can be used to put a figure aside a companion text...
but, what happens if the text is to be typed... ??
I guess this won't work:
\SideFigure{right}{pack2}{../figures/tcltk/pack2.jpg}{0.25}
{
\starttyping
pack .ok .cancel .help -side top
\stoptyping
}
How can I make it to work?
thanks !

Re: [NTG-context] metaobj and transparent colors with \MPcolor
Sorry, I can not reproduce your example. I get only red page with black
page number in header. No white box. And I do not known metaobj macro.
But I have a question. It is really needed to surround \definecolor by
\startMPenvironment? Since \definecolor has to result to \pdfobj and
\pdfliteral (pdftex primitives) and propagation to mpost (which is EPS
not PDF generator) has no sence. Only reference to color is needed and
it is done via \MPcolor. Am I right?

I try to achieve transparently filled objects using the metaobj package.
However, transparency is ignored completely in the output, I just get a
normal white. Here is my test file:
\setupcolors[state=start]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=color,backgroundcolor=red]
\startMPenvironment[global]
\definecolor[Durchsichtig][r=1.0,g=1.0,b=1.0,t=0.0,a=normal]
\stopMPenvironment
\startreusableMPgraphic{test}
input metaobj;
setObjectDefaultOption("Box")("fillcolor")(\MPcolor{Durchsichtig});
newBox.test(btex Transparent? etex) "filled(true)";
Obj(test).c=origin;
drawObj(test);
\stopreusableMPgraphic
\starttext
\reuseMPgraphic{test}
\stoptext
If I use the fillcolor as an argument to the object
newBox.test(btex Transparent? etex) "filled(true)"
"fillcolor(\MPcolor{Durchsichtig})";
I get error messages from the mpost run. So it seems that metaobj and
\MPcolor don't like each other.
Any ideas how to circumvent this problem?

[NTG-context] key=value parameters
Hallo ConTeXters,
I am playing with defining my own macro with key=value parameters.
Please, consider definition:
\def\setupField[#1]#2[#3]{\getparameters[Field!#1!][#3]}
\setupField[name][mykey=value,textwidth=2cm]
If you let ConTeXt to show the values by
\message{
}
you obtain
While 'mykey' is OK, predefined keys (like textwidth, text, style, ...)
lead to undefined parameter, that behave like \relax.
I can imagine next solutions:
1) Do not use predefined keys in my macros, e.g. textWidth instead of
textwidth [=user unfriendly].
2) Use original (mostly Dutch) keys inside of my macros
[=developer unfriendly].
3) Define:
\unprotect
\def\getparametersALL{\dogetparameters\dosetvalueALL}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
\protect
and use:
\def\setupField[#1]#2[#3]{\getparametersALL[Field!#1!][#3]}
\setupField[name][mykey=value,textwidth=2cm]
\message{
}
it gives:
Is there any other (more elegant and not-so-dirty) solution?
Thankx
