Re: [NTG-context] Pull quote between two column - trial
That is progress, Garulfo, and real progress! I'm sorry I have not been any help to you in achieving this... a bit beyond my skill set. But I have long regarded this particular 'feature' to be a quite important 'missing' feature of ConTeXt, since I occasionally get requests from authors as to the possibility of including such pull quotes in multi-column presentations, and I have to tell them that to do so I need to use another program where that is more easily achieved. So, I just wanted you to know that someone out there appreciates your efforts with this, one of many I am sure.

[NTG-context] parallel page streams (pag-str.mkxl)
Dear list,
I have this sample:
\starttext
\input tufte
\startoutputstream[es]
\dorecurse{25}
{\input cervantes-es\par\pushoutputstream}
\enableoutputstream[en]
\dorecurse{25}
{\input zapf\par\pushoutputstream}
\disableoutputstream
\stopoutputstream
\synchronizestreams[en,es]
\page \flushoutputstream[en]
\page \flushoutputstream[es]
\stoptext
It is an adaptation from pag-str.mkxl to get parallel texts in facing pages.
What I’m afraid I cannot get is exactly facing pages.
Am I doing something wrong or is this something still to be added?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

No more issue with nonsymetrical behavior, and \framed are properly
aligned with the grid.

i'll check it .. looks like some interference with normalization ..

One slight problem is when I use 2\measured{xheight} as the font size I get
an error. \measure works fine though.

Re: [NTG-context] Specifying font size as x-height
How would one specify the font size in LMTX, but via x-height?
You could try this:
\starttexdefinition setxheight [#1][#2]
\switchtobodyfont[#1, 12pt]
\switchtobodyfont[#1, \cldcontext{tex.sp"#2" / tex.sp"1ex" * tex.sp"1em" ..
"sp"}]
\stoptexdefinition
Demo:
\starttexdefinition setxheight [#1][#2]
\switchtobodyfont[#1, 12pt]
\switchtobodyfont[#1, \cldcontext{tex.sp"#2" / tex.sp"1ex" * tex.sp"1em" ..
"sp"}]
\stoptexdefinition
\define[1]\sample{%
\setxheight[#1][10pt] Hello%
}
\setuppapersize[letter, landscape]
\starttext
\dontleavehmode\rlap{\vrule width\textwidth height 10.5pt depth -10pt}%
\processcommalist[modern, pagella, termes, heros, bonum, scholas,
adventor, cursor, chorus, dejavu]\sample
\stoptext
This is kind of a hacky solution though. It works reasonably well,
although there's likely a better (perhaps builtin?) way to do this.
