[NTG-context] \startmatrix bug in beta
Hi Hans/ Aditya,
With the latest beta, \startmatrix's final \NR creates a
superfluous line, resulting in ugly output:
\starttext
\startformula
\startmatrix[left={\left(\,},right={\,\right)}]
\NC 0 \NR
\NC 0 \NR
\NC 0 \NR % removing this fixes the output
\stopmatrix
\stopformula
\stoptext
Best wishes,
Taco

[NTG-context] MP spot color in gradient - help!
Struggling against a deadline here so apologies for no full sample.
I have a gradient fill defined using
\startuseMPgraphic{mpos:par:mylearnobj}
path p;
for i = 1 upto nofmultipars :
p := multipars[1] topenlarged 8pt bottomenlarged 8pt leftenlarged 3cm ;
color ca ; ca := \MPcolor{greenthirty} ;
color cb ; cb := \MPcolor{white} ;
sh := define_linear_shade(origin, origin shifted (120mm,0), ca, cb) ;
fill p withshade sh ;
endfor;
\stopuseMPgraphic
This works if the colour greenthirty is defined as a CMYK colour
\definecolor[TAXBgreenthirty][c=.3,m=0,y=.057,k=.069]
but, inevitably, my printer wants it defined as a spot ink, and when I
do this:
\definecolor[PantoneThreeOneFourFive][c=1,m=0,y=.19,k=.23]
\definespotcolor[TAXBgreenthirty][PantoneThreeOneFourFive][p=.3]
the gradient turns to black instead of green. (The spot colour
definition works fine in the rest of the document, just not in the
gradient fill.)
Could someone possibly let me know if it is even possible to define a
gradient using a spot colour, or if I should instead revert to some
alternative solution.
Thanks,
Duncan

Re: [NTG-context] about JS(Walk_Field{})
Dear Wolfgang, Your animation module works really fine. It reduces a lot of work to set the fieldstack. I'd like to ask you a few more small things. 1) Is it possible to set the duration time in the case of autoplay? 2) The location of buttons is leftaligned when [menu=yes]. Is it what you want or I did something wrong? 3) What is the meaning of \start and \stop in animation-1.tex? 4) In your animation-2.tex, the size of buttons can be controlled by setting foregroundstyle. Then, how to apply it to \startanimation? Thank you.

Re: [NTG-context] MP spot color in gradient - help!
Right, thanks very much for the quick response Hans. I can remap colours with the tools we have here, except in the case of a gradient fill. I think I will try using a repeated graphic as a background instead, while waiting for printer's thoughts.

[NTG-context] fit to width by negative letterspacing or narrowing
Hello again, it's been a while... ;-) I need to pack fixed lines into a fixed width box. Some years ago I had something similar in plain PostScript, where I pre-calculated the width of a text box, let the default font if it would fit my max size, otherwise try a narrow font and if that wasn’t enough decreased font size until it would fit. This time I've only one font and must not decrease font size, but must use negative kerning and perhaps some artificial narrowing. How can I do that with ConTeXt? I use MkIV, so any Lua solution is welcome. Greetlings from Lake Constance!

[NTG-context] MK IV new install /Mac OS X
Dear all, I've been trying to install the TeX minimals on a new Mac. While MK II works, not so MK IV. I get the error message MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' Here is what I did: Downloaded TeXLive 2010 Then followed the instructions at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals/Mac_Installation I did this a few years back without a hitch, so I am wondering what is different now. In any case, in the above instructions, under Configuring ConTeXt, instep 4, the copies file has already the indicated changes in it. I used the same paths as indicated and ran luatools --generate as well as context --make Everything went ok without error messages. I then configured TeXShop as explained. As I said, MKII works fine but MKIV gives the error message. I searched the wiki for it and there seem to be some related reports, but I couldn't find a resolution. Any suggestions? If all fails I'll try to clone an older installation.

[NTG-context] A module for generic external syntax highlighter
Hi all,
I have modularized the vim module[1] so that it is easy to reuse
components for other external syntax highlight programs. The set up for
defining a new external syntax highlighting is done in t-syntax-highlight
module, and the set up for defining a new color scheme is done in
t-syntax-groups. The vim module simply calls these modules with the
relevant setups.
These modules also use an experimental coding style for the ConTeXt code.
This is based on some discussions that we had on the list earlier. (This
style sets the catcode of : to be other; this can break existing ConTeXt
code). All modules work with both MkII and MkIV; as a result, some of the
things are more complicated than they need to be just for MkIV.
I believe that this split will make it easy to add new external programs
as syntax highlighters. The external highlighter needs to generate ConTeXt
code in a specific format:
- Start each new line with \CR{}
- Escape all \, {, and }, as \\, \{, and \}
- Group each syntax region as follows:
\SYN[group-name]{content}
The external highlighter should also support a means of specifing the
start and stop lines to be highlighted.
At the TeX end, a new syntax highlighting module should specify the exact
external command to be called, and define color schemes (style and color)
for each of the group-name used in the \SYN command in the highlighter.
In case anyone is interested in testing a specific external highlighter,
let me know. Any other feedback is welcome.
Aditya

[NTG-context] [NTG-context] Suppress the citation number counts in the list of figures?
Dear All,
I asked the same question in another post, but no replies except Thomas A.
Schmitz asked me to make an example.
In that post, I asked how to get the abosulute value of the bib entry, it is
very confusing. Therefore, I made the example as below:
Take the sample.bib in the wiki as the database file. Based on the citation
sequence, hh2010b is expected to be the third reference, but because it is
included in the figure caption, and the figure caption will be listed in the
figure list at the beginning of the file, hh2010b becomes the first
reference. How to make it the third reference? The resulting list of figure
should be
The caption of this figure includes the citation, but this citation
sequence is expected to be the same as in the paragraph[3]
instead of
The caption of this figure includes the citation, but this citation
sequence is expected to be the same as in the paragraph[1]
\usemodule[bib]
\setupbibtex[database=sample]%sample.bib in the wiki
\setuppublications[sorttype=cite]
\setuppublications[alternative=num,criterium=cite]
\setuppublications[numbering=yes] % Show reference numbers in the generated
list.
\starttext
\startfrontmatter %
List of figures
\title{List of Figures}
\writetolist[Title] {} {List of Figures}
\writebetweenlist [Title] {\blank}
\placelist[figure][criterium=all]
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
This is the first place for citation\cite[hh2010].
This is the second place for citation\cite[hh2010a].
This is the third place for citation\cite[hh2010b].
This is the fourth place for citation\cite[Eijkhout1991].
\placefigure[][fig:sample]
{The caption of this figure includes the citation, but this citation
sequence is expected to be the same as in the paragraph\cite[hh2010b].}
{\framed{\tfd figure caption with citation}}
\stopbodymatter
\startbackmatter
\placepublications[criterium=text]
\stopbackmatter
\stoptext
Many thanks.

Bugfix:
In \dodefinemathmatrix, change
\setuvalue{\e!stop #1}{\dostopmathmatrix}%
to
\setvalue{\e!stop #1}{\dostopmathmatrix}%
If someone wants to correct this in a working document, add
\let\stopmatrix\dostopmathmatrix

\starttext
\startformula
\startmatrix[left={\left(\,},right={\,\right)}]
\NC 0 \NR
\NC 0 \NR

I don't know why \setuvalue gives an extra space. Hopefully, you or Hans
will be able to figure that out.
