[NTG-context] SyncTeX and mkiv
Hi all, Using TeXShop on a Mac (with Mac OS X 10.2) I noticed that some of my documents typeset with mkiv do not respond correctly regarding SyncTeX: when I do « Command-Click » on a specific part of the resulting PDF there is no reaction at all, that is I do not get to the corresponding part of the source TeX file. Nevertheless when I click in the source TeX file, SyncTeX shows the corresponding highlighted part of the PDF file. So my question is the following: is there some change in mkiv, or in the way TeXShop has to be tuned? The command I use to typeset is: context --synctex=1 --autogenerate $1 —purgeall and the version of ConTeXt I have is ConTeXt ver: 2015.03.30 23:33 MKIV beta fmt: 2015.3.31 Thanks in advance for any help.

[NTG-context] Latest beta: reference to items broken in mkiv
Hi Hans,
It seems that referencing to items is broken in the latest beta mkiv: for
example in the example below the command
\in{Item}[ref:2]
does not show item number 2.
However it works fine in mkii and previous releases.
Best regards: OK
PS: a minimal example follows
%%% begin ref-item-broken.tex
\starttext
\startitemize[n]
\startitem[ref:1]
Item 1, reference 1
\stopitem
\startitem[ref:2]
Item 2, reference 2
\stopitem
\startitem[ref:3]
Item 3, reference 3
\stopitem
\stopitemize
See \in{Item}[ref:2] above.
\stoptext
%%% end ref-item-broken.tex

Hello,
I have a problem with paragraph footnotes. I don't know how to prevent a

Sometimes a thing like this happens:
... [main text] ...

1. text of the first footnote --- 2. text of the second one --- 3.
text of the third one
Is there a way to force ConTeXt to keep the 3. with text of the third
one?

[NTG-context] question on bibliography generation in context stable
Hello:
I installed a standalone context system on my linux OS by running the install
script:
sh ./first-setup.sh --modules=all --context=current --engine=luatex
For getting the install script I followed the link given at contextgarden
install wiki page:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Standalone % the wiki page
http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/first-setup.sh % link to the install
script
The version of this installed context is:
context --version
mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 0.60
mtx-context |
mtx-context | main context file:
/usr/local/context/stable/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/context.mkiv
mtx-context | current version: 2014.01.03 00:40
My questions are related to bibliography production. For setting up
bibliography I used the manual mentioned and linked at the contextgarden
Bibliography MkIV wiki page:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bibliography_mkiv % the wiki page
http://www.let.rug.nl/alfa/texmf/tetex30/context/bib/bibmod-doc.pdf % link to
the manual dated 2009 March 02
I want a numbered bibliography list for which I use the following setup in the
document preamble:
\setuppublications[alternative=num,refcommand=num,sorttype=cite,numbering=yes,autohang=yes]
Questions:
1. The above setting results in a numbered bibliography list where the numbers
are aligned left and don't have period, like (use monotype font to see the
correct alignment):
1Authors
25 Authors
134 Authors
I would like to make the list item numbers right aligned and having a period,
like:
1. Authors
25. Authors
134. Authors
I also would like to know how I can change the distance between the numbers and
text (authors).
2. I am confused how to use the autohang, totalnumber and samplesize options.
For exmample I have the following setup:
\setuppublications[alternative=num,refcommand=num,sorttype=cite,numbering=yes,autohang=yes]
\setuppublicationlist[samplesize={MM}]
or
\setuppublicationlist[totalnumber=220]
or
\setuppublicationlist[totalnumber=220,samplesize={MM}]
Whatever setting I use for totalnumber and samplesize, they don't have any
effect on the output.
The bbl file always has the same in the first line:
\setuppublicationlist[samplesize={PGABMN{\etalchar{+}}02},totalnumber=220]
The only option that makes a difference is autohang on/off.
With autohang=on the 3-digit numbers hang onto the list entry texts (authors)
and partially overlap them.
With autohang=no they don't overlap but are still too close to the list item
text.
It seems it behaves the opposite to what is expected.
What is the correct use of these options? It's not explained in the manual.
3. There are 4 bst files in context from which context chooses one for
generating the list.
How context decides which bst file is used? Is it possible to use a bst file
with another name?
(Just to make it clear: I don't want to use completely different bst file, only
to modify one, eg cont-no.bst, save it with a different name and use that file.)
Thanks in advance,
bcsikos

[NTG-context] overlay or layer for chapter head.

If you uncomment the line with the font definition, font loading crashes
compilation. It only crashes with this font
(http://www.dafont.com/typographytribute.font) or FontAwesome
(http://www.fontawesome.io).
Both lack the underscore glyph. This causes the crash, since it works
fine if I replace the glyph with an existing glyph in the font.

Would it be possible that ConTeXt silently ignores that the font doesn’t

the message is fuzzy (and i have to check a lua stack issue maybe but
not now) ... if char is nil then char.depth is an error
I think this might be a bug.
