It would appear that this problem is still the case, as of the
following version:

  $ context --version | sed -n 2p\;5p
  mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 0.63
  mtx-context | current version: 2016.09.24 12:40

In particular, Peter's example produces something like the following:

However, a person whose thoughts are governed by reasonable logic might
instead expect the result to look more like this:

The ConTeXt facilities in question are [mostly] defined here:

   "$TEXROOT"/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/page-mul.mkiv

After a not-so-cursory review, it seems to me that the problem is a
result of [probably erroneous] references [in various calculations]
to the `offset' parameter, which is presumably a vestigial growth
inherited from `\setupframed'.

Fortunately, meddling by this `offset' parameter can be explicitly
nullfied via including `offset=0pt' in the setup parameters for the
`\startcolumns' command; that is, in order to get the results that
Peter expected, modify Peter's example to be this:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
\starttext
\startcolumns[offset=0pt,distance=0pt]
\input tufte
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

If you now include `rule=on', then you get:

   We thrive  in  information-thick  worlds|screen, pigeonhole, pick over, 
sort, inte-
   because  of  our  marvelous  and  every-|grate, blend, inspect, filter,

chaff   and
   ize, isolate, discriminate, distinguish,|separate the sheep from  the

If you now replace `distance=0pt' with `distance=2ex', then you get the
following (I chose `2ex', so as to be able to represent the results more
accurately in plain text):

From a quick glance I'd say that this is a better start for me too. At
least I find my way through the code.

That would be really nice.

My design requirements are very simple but very different to the styles
I saw so far.

The only effect, I use, are bullet lists that appear step by step.

[NTG-context] marks on the first page only

2016-10-05 Thread Pablo Rodriguez 
Hans,

would it be possible to have a "first" value added to the "marking" key
from \setuplayout that prints cut marks only on the first page of the
document?

In some cases, having cut marks in all pages is unnecessary. Or even
unpractical, because some printers slightly move the marks when printing
(they don’t print the text exactly on the same position on each page [it
happens in most copyshops]).

I would need this for the imposition I asked about yesterday
(https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2016/087038.html). Sorry
for insisting, but I need to solve the issues for something I have to
send to a copy shop today.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

The space between the text and the formula inside and outside of the

[NTG-context] imposition broken in latest beta?

2016-10-05 Thread Pablo Rodriguez 
Dear list,

I’m using latest beta from 2016.09.24 12:40. I have the following sample:

\showframe
\setuppapersize [A5][A4]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\setuplayout
  [backspace=0pt,
topspace=0pt,
 marking=page,
location=doublesided,
  header=0pt,
  footer=0pt]
\starttext
\filterpages[setup-en.pdf][1:10][width=0cm]
\stoptext

The PDF document is i-context.pdf from the ConTeXt Suite
(tex/texmf-context/tex/context/interface/mkiv/i-context.pdf).

For some reason that I don’t understand, the imposed page suffers a size
reduction, as it is clearly displayed on the first page.

With "location=doublesided", even pages are misplaced on the inner
margin. Text is even cut (as displayed with this sample).

Am I missing something in my sample or have I hit a bug?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

Hi,

I use also MacOS and all my presentations are made with ConTeXt. The easiest 
thing to do is to take examples from simpleslides, or from the examples by Hans 
in the folder

tex/texmf-context/tex/context/modules/common

of the standalone tree, and then adapt them to your needs and your taste.
