[NTG-context] disabling reuse of figures
Dear All,
It is a rather strange problem, I am compiling a presentation file using
ConText. I use the \startcombination enviroment to make a panel containing
4 plots. In the source file, I prescibe a different figure file (*.png)
for each page. ConText is however reusing the first set of figures so that
the panel in each page looks the same as in the first page.
Is there a way to disable the reusing of figures?
A minimal example is reproduced below.
thanks for any suggestions.

Re: [NTG-context] MetaFont
But this does massivly restrict metafonts capabilities. Pens for example are not allowed (Metafont with applied handbrake)! I agree, metatype1 is not very easy to use if you are familiar with metafont already. For existing fonts, mf2pt1 is in general the best approach, I think. There is a (patched?) version out there that delegates most the hard work to fontforge, and it's results are normally quite acceptable. There was once (1990) an article in TUGboat 11:4, pages 525-541 which discribes an patch to mf84. The patched mf could produce type3 fonts. Should'nt it be possible to do the same for type1?

I know, people who tried to reproduce my trouble with DejaVu fonts failed :-) Nevertheless I'm now giving my solution to the public, just in case somebody in future gets the same failure.

[NTG-context] Scite
Hallo! I had a little problems to install scite 1.74 for conTeXt under Windows. First, I tried to import both 'context.properties' and 'default.properties' in this order in 'SciteGlobal', but only the second(?) was imported. I tried to comment a few other imports, which I don't use, but Scite refuses to import context. Finally I imported 'context.properties' in 'default.properties'. That works! The CTX-tools redefine the keys Ctrl-B and Ctrl-E which normaly are used to insert abbreviations (which can be language-dependend now) and to find matching braces. I replaced the 'Open Logfile' with Ctrl- L (former Ctrl-E) and deleted the 'Check Text' entry completly, because I am calling ISpell with Ctrl-I therefore. It remains one problem: In the Scite console, the backspace key is not really working (the char is deleted only on screen, not in the buffer). Has anybody a solution?

[NTG-context] Possible bug in core-tab?
Hi Hans,
|| does not work with tables, and until now I thought that this was a
limitation of tables. But upon reading core-tab, it appears that you
make a lot of effort to make sure that || works correctly, but it does
not. I think that this is due to a mistake in the definition of
pushouterbarandquote. Currently it is defined as
\gdef\pushouterbarandquote
{\ifForgetTableBarAndQuote
\let|\letterbar
\let\letterdoublequote
\ifnum\catcode`\|=\@@active \let\outertablebar
|\else\let\outertablebar \relax\fi
\ifnum\catcode`\=\@@active
\let\outertablequote\else\let\outertablequote\relax\fi
\fi}
Shouldn't it be the other way round? That is first save the current
meaning of | and , and then redefine it. So,
\bgroup
\catcode`\|=\@@active
\catcode`\=\@@active
\gdef\pushouterbarandquote
{\ifForgetTableBarAndQuote
\ifnum\catcode`\|=\@@active \let\outertablebar
|\else\let\outertablebar \relax\fi
\ifnum\catcode`\=\@@active
\let\outertablequote\else\let\outertablequote\relax\fi
\let|\letterbar
\let\letterdoublequote
\fi}
\egroup
This makes sure that || works correctly. The redefinition of and |
was added last November.
