this is not the same question as handling orphan and widows - because
you surely do not want some titles with only 2-3 lines of body text
after them.
I always use \testpage[x] to handle those issues, see your example
with testpage:
\setuphead[section][before={\testpage[8]\blank}]
\blank[samepage,big]
Thanks, it works! Another magic command not documented anywhere in the
ConTeXt Guide or Wiki...
I was looking for any alternative for XSL-FO's keep-with-next=always. This
is a different approach, but it doesn't matter.
Btw, I still don't understand why keeping the title and text behaves
differently when grid is on...

Re: [NTG-context] line notes compress

Keep in mind that paragraph notes are somewhat special so some tolerance in alignment helps. This is not directly related to linenotes, but to paragraph notes.

With the following scenario (I have seen this): poetry with verses numbered to the page, two apparatus (critical and similar) and the first linenote on at least one apparatus comes from the previous page (so numbers in this apparatus go from 30 to 2). Is \setupnote[linenote][split=verystrict,scope=page] a reliable method to avoid this? Hard to predict as many factors determine this. Best is to be somewhat tolerant and have enough space available before the footnote(rule) but even then there can be casas where no other solution is left than to split the note over a page. A magic interplay of penalties. I mean, if you have to typeset a critical edition of the Illiad or the Odyssey, you cannot check every single page looking for displaced linenotes.

[NTG-context] xml selection on attribute expressions
Following an example in the chapter on Expressions and filters for
xml-processing one can select on an attribute ‘name’ in the node file

However, I would like to select on a combination of alternatives, so that
equivalent are
file name=“whatever”/ and file src=“whatever”/
I tried several variations but none of them work.
\xmlfilter{#1}{file([@name==whatever”] or [@src==whatever”])/command(todo)

Sorry for the noise, but I just forget to try the obvious and correct solution:

[NTG-context] Command for the caption location inside \startplacefigure
Hello,
What is the option to specify the CAPTION location in \startplacefigure (I
already now that you can do it from \setupcaption)?
I thought the first argument of 'location' was for the FIGURE location, and
the second one for the CAPTION location, but the second one has no effect:
\startplacefigure[location={left, top}, title=A cow]
\externalfigure[cow]
\stopplacefigure
Best regards.

Re: [NTG-context] vertical square root upstroke (instead of having a slant)
a radical has a couple of increasing sizes (discrete steps, if they have a slant depends of the font designer) before it switches to an extensible that then normally has no slant Interesting. That explains the difference: The \rho made the radical big enough to switch to the extensible, unslanted version. (in context one can hook in a mp variant that keeps the slant) (if needed we can make it an option to omit steps and always use upright) My math-typography sense is far from developed, and mostly comes from having read lots of math books. With that caveat, my gut feelings are that (1) the switch from slant to upright is a bit surprising for a reader, and (2) that the slant version is more common, so an always-upright radical would also be a bit surprising. But perhaps you or others with a more developed typographical eye have a more principled way of judging? -Sanjoy ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] OT: Generating Command reference from source code
Dear All, in another thread I was dreaming ... to have always the complete and up to date command/macro reference with basic descriptions and list all of the parameter/options... 'Spoiled' by goodies offered by various Java APIs (based on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Javadoc ) I am missing this a lot. Example of the result: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/index.html?overview-summary.html In Java there is the following structure (simplified): 1) 'packages' defining the hierarchy 2) 'classes' defining objects 3) 'properties' and 'methods' for every particular 'class' I've roughly scanned the ConTeXt source structure and bringing the following idea: 1) There is no 'packages' counterpart in ConTeXt, but it would be handy to think of any logical structure to group commands to logical groups (even nested). Maybe the filename title prefix could be taken as a starting point for this. 2) 'classes' = all individual .mkiv files 3) 'methods' = all public \def, \define etc in mkiv files (+maybe other contructs I am not aware) Supposing that ... a) every .mkiv file is enhanced by 'package' annotation b) every public command/macro contains a description with the list of all available params (sensible subset of JavaDoc annotations) ... I can imagine to extract this info and: A) build the static command reference website with all the hyperlinks B) eventually generate PDF variant of the same C) export it into the form which can be imported into the WIKI (with read-only mode) If every change of behaviour was reflected immediately in the description, if any newly added parameter was added into the parameter list, the main goal would be achieved. But I understand there is lot of to do in the beginning... with disputable effect in the end. I can help with some coding, transforming ... Jan Btw, would it be sufficient to scan texmf-context\tex\context\base\*.mkiv files or there are other parts somewhere else? There are approx 500 files now. It is huge number, but finite :-) ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
