[NTG-context] extra spacing between verse and chorus
Hello, Please, help me with the following. The \vbox and \bgroup\egroup tags are intend to keep a verse on a page, but they also add extra spacing (an extra line?) between the verse and chorus. How to get rid of it? \definestartstop [verse] [before=\vbox\bgroup\startlines, after=\stoplines\egroup] \definestartstop [chorus] [before=\startnarrower\startlines, after=\stoplines\stopnarrower] \starttext \startverse We all came out to Montreux, On the Lake Geneva shoreline. To make records with a mobile, We didn't have much time. But Frank Zappa and the Mothers, Were at the best place around, But some stupid with a flare gun, Burned the place to the ground. \stopverse \startchorus Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky.

[NTG-context] endnotes
hello: i´m using endnotes at the end of each chapter and I have 2 problems: 1. I want some space between a note and the next one. How can I do that? 2. When the last page of a chapter is half filled o more -or somethig like that- the endnotes jumps to a new page, but if the last page of a chapter is less than a half filled, then the endnotes keeps in the same page, as I want.

This is how I would do it. Not sure if this is the best way. Use
tokens to keep track of the current information that should go to the
layer, and repeat the layer on each page.
\newtoks\testtoks
\definelayer[test]
[ width=\paperwidth,
height=\paperheight,
]
\startsetups make:test
\setlayer[test][x=5cm,y=3cm]{\framed[align=normal,width=5cm]{\the\testtoks}}
\stopsetups
\setupbackgrounds[page][setups=make:test,background=test]
\starttext
\testtoks{This is a test}
Let's see
\page
Now add something to the layer
\input knuth
\appendtoks \endgraf \input tufte \to \testtoks
\page
Let's start all over again
\testtoks {Testing again}
\stoptext
HTH,
Aditya

[NTG-context] Section marking forgotten on next even page?
Hello all, why does \page[even] reset the section marks? Shouldn't this feature be configurable by the user? -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
[NTG-context] Linetables ROW alignment
Hello all again, I'm using linetables, because despite their lack of documentation they've been rather easy to set up to achieve the effects I needed (colors, alignment, etc). I have a small problem with the title row though, because I would like its entries to be all typeset centered (whereas the rest of columns has them partly left and partly right aligned) but apparently there is no (easy) way to override alignment in a single row. In particular, \setuplinetable[r][1][align=middle] doesn't work, even though all other specifications (color, background, style) work as expected. I think that if a row alignment is required, it should be applied and take precedente over column alignment. Any suggestions? -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta P.S. Looking at core-ltb.tex I've found that \BH and \EH are mapped to \linetableBR and \linetableER. Is this intentional, or a cut-n-paste error? The way it is now, \linetableBH and \linetableEH are never triggered ... ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
