[NTG-context] mirror one single character
Hi,
one can use this ...
\rotate[rotation=180]{\utfchar{1D0E}}
... to rotate a single character when needed.
Do we have a similar, handy command for mirroring a single character?

I believe the second one should already have fixed it. Have you
run “context --make” after you modified both files?
Aha! That's what I didn't do. Thank you very much!
So, of course, there's another problem.
If I add \placepublications[criterium=all], I get errors that appear to be
related to what we changed. Note that if I press return twice, the document
is produced as expected.
Wait a sec -- this should have been fixed by the modification to
strc-lst.lua. Can it be that in the meantime you updated your
Context and this fix got overwritten? If so, please reapply it,
remake the format and report back.
Anyway it would appear that these issues will be fixed in the

Hi ConTeXt list,
I have a document with a graphic (logo) in the upper right corner
(positioned on a layer and placed as a background). To the left of
this graphic are several text elements (Title, Author List, etc.) that
don't go all the way across the page. (Currently I have wrapped them
in \startnarrower...\stopnarrower -- is there a better way?) But this
is followed by an Abstract paragraph that uses the full width of the
page.
I would like to ensure that the full-width text never starts high
enough on the page that it encroaches on the upper-right-corner
graphic. So, I'm looking for a way to protect the graphic, or to force
the Abstract to start a minimum distance from the top of the page.
The Abstract can be forced down the page if necessary by manually
inserting a \godown[] command before it, but I would prefer a
programmatic solution.
Floating the graphic and wrapping text around it does not seem like a
good option, because I want to ensure that its position is absolute
and it never moves. Also, the Abstract needs to be full-width
throughout, so I need to force it to start after the graphic rather
than partially wrapping it.
Any suggestions appreciated…
You can use something like the following code but without a example from you
it’s difficult to give a answer.

Here's a minimal example of what I'm talking about.
I would like the Abstract to not start until it will be clear of the
logo graphic on the right side.
In the real document, I cannot be sure how much vertical space will
taken up by text items (Authors, subtitle, etc.) between the Title and
the Abstract, hence my question.
Maybe I am thinking about this in the wrong way and there is a
different approach? I have more of a DTP background.

First-page layout is an issue that I have asked about before, but

thread:
http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20111228.041922.c60f9cd5.en.html.
I want to define a layout for the first page of my document with
different header and footer formatting -- specifically, no header and
a large footer to hold publication information. Based on examples on
Contextgarden and this list, I think my code below is correct.
However, the first page formatting is continued on all pages of the
document. The effect is the same when using \definelayout[first] and
\definelayout[1].
Is MkIV a option for you? The problem had been there for a while as well but
now it’s fixed
you can decide what ConTeXt should do after the first page.
With the “state” you can control whether the layout at the second page
should be switched
back to the global layout with \definelayout[…][state=start] (this is the
default setting) or
it should remain with \definelayout[…][state=repeat].
\definelayout
[first]
[width=middle,
backspace=15mm,
topspace=10mm,
height=254mm,
header=0mm, % no header
headerdistance=0mm,
footer=25mm, % big footer
footerdistance=5mm,
grid=yes]
You have to set only what’s different from the global layout.
\definelayout

[header=0mm,

Wolfgang and Wagner, thank you for taking the time to respond to this.
I am using MkIV. I just updated to the latest beta (I had been running
one beta behind). I was intentionally not using layout inheritance in
my \definelayout commands to eliminate the possibility of a problem in
the inheritance mechanism.
Interaction with columnsets also seems to be part of the problem, as I
will try to explain.
1. In a layout with no columnset: \definelayout[first] creates a
unique layout for the first page and returns to the default layout on
page 2. BUT from page 3 onwards, the text does not go all the way to
the bottom of the text area (although \showframe indicates that the
text area is correct). A workaround is to add
\definelayout[current][...parameters that undo the first-page
parameters...].
2. In a layout with a columnset
(\definecolumnset[body][n=2,balancing=yes]): use of
\definelayout[first] causes failure with the error message below.
Ignoring warnings and forcing Context to continue results in a pdf
with \showframe lines drawn correctly, but text not filling the whole
column height, as described previously.
