[NTG-context] getting number from context.figurewidth
Dear list,
I have the following sample:
\starttext
\startluacode
document.sample = "xml-mkiv.pdf"
context.getfiguredimensions({ document.sample })
context(context.figureheight)
context.par()
context(tex.dimen.paperheight)
\stopluacode
\stoptext
Is there a way that I can get a number from context.figureheight, such
as I get it from tex.dimen.paperheight?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

Dear list,
As it turns out, my workaround here is subpar since it inserts an undesired
line after the description block.
Hans was very kind to send me a fix to place in cont-new.mkxl that fixes the
issue. However, due to my errors in properly pasting the fix correctly, it did
not work. I updated LMTX today and the fix is already merged.
I am pasting below Hans' fix for reference (for anyone who might come across
this later) –

Is the Transliterator module from Philipp Gesang what you're looking
for?

[NTG-context] Solved: Book setup with LHS-side quotes before chapters/parts, header/footer issues, TOC, etc.
Thanks to Wolfgang Schuster and Bruce Horrocks I have now a working solution. I
ended up following Bruce’s suggestion of doing a left hand side (LHS) page
opposite the first (RHS) chapter or part page differently than using
after/before modifications of the \chapter and \part setups as I had been doing
years ago (but that book did not have parts and was done in mkii)
The modification of \chapter and \part setups with before= and after= never
worked in the \component setup in LMTX. Creating a separate command to run
immediately before a \chapter or \part, as suggested by Bruce, was simpler and
and turned out to be more robust. So, this single file example also works when
\components are used.
The only issues I have now left are very minimal. In the table of contents, the
abstract for a part has some extra whitespace above, which the chapter
abstracts don’t have. But that is not really a problem. And getting the part
title somewhere more centred on its page is also left as an issue for later.
Example file. In a project/component setup: everything before the \starttext
goes into the environment file, the rest in the product file.
