[NTG-context] Using pgf graphics in context
Hi, I would like to use pgf graphics in my context documents. How do I go about it -- I googled for the answer, but can't really find anything useful. Thanks in advance, Jos ___ 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] placefigure[right] draws figures inside framed text
Hello,
I'm using framed text to display verbatim sourse code. The frame should use
the entire textwidth, so I use width=broad.
A problem occurs when I use a figure placed at the right side of the page,
before a framed text section: the figure is drawn *inside* the frame.
With non-framed text everything works fine.
I include an example. It consists of a d.tex file and METAPOST file
a.mp. To reproduce the problem, first convert a.mp to a-1.pdf using
the mptopdf utility. Then texexec --pdf d.tex
d.tex -

Re: [NTG-context] placefigure[right] draws figures inside framed text (Willi Egger)
Hello Willi,
Thanks for your answer.
Your suggestion works ... if I would be free to choose the framed text to be 0.5
textwidth. However, the framed text is source code and I do need the entire
textwidth
because otherwise I'm going to get line wraps and that'll make things look ugly.
I expected placefigure[right] to be clever enough to see that there is no room
beside the framed text, and either place the figure above it or beneath it.
My current workaround is to put the placefigure[right] macro earlier in the flow
of text if possible, or use placefigure[force].
Regards,
Jos

Hi,
use \framedtext[width=.5\textwidth]{...}. Framed text breaks over the
lines. Do not use a \vbox

Re: [NTG-context] re-posting example of header at page bottom
Hi,
I'm re-posting my previous reply to a request from Wolfgang Schuster to supply
an example that exhibits the problem of headers at page bottom. In my previous
reply the attached example was more or less obscurely hidden in a link at the
bottom of the Digest.
This time I included the example in the e-mail -- it's a bit long I'm afraid.
Here's an example of a ConTeXt file where a header occurs at page bottom.
The subsection named Perl snippet occurs at the bottom of page 2, followed
by framed text on page 3. It would be much nicer if the header would be
written on page 3. Note: I extracted this example from a real-life text; for
some reason
the frames in the example are drawn wrongly, but this is beside the point.
Run the example with texexec --pdf test.tex

\testpage[3] checks that you have space for atleast 3 lines in the current
page. So you can use
\setuphead[myhead][before={\testpage[3]\blank}]

Hi,
while comparing the PDF of mkii and mkiv I noticed a slight differ in

While all mkii bb have the form [0 0 w h], the mkiv counterparts use
[-1 -1 w+1 h+1]. So the bb of mkiv is enlarged 1bp in all directions.
Is this intended?
harmless ... it prevents clipping of lines
mh, you mean if something is \framed (with default frame settings)?
if the bbox goes through the middle of a line in an xform then you get
(in acrobat) clipped lines so this avoids that problem

[NTG-context] multi page TABLE and placetable
Hi,
I'm using TABLE macros for typesetting tables. Since the tables I'm using
may get very long, I set split=yes. This works ... except if I surround
a TABLE with \placetable:
\placetable[here]{caption} {
\bTABLE ...
\eTABLE
}
In such a case a table that is too long to fit on a single page is truncated
at page bottom and nothing is printed on the next page.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Jos

[NTG-context] framed text question
Hi, I have a question regarding framed text. To obtain framed verbatim text that breaks over pages, I use the macro \definetextbackground. I have encountered a slight problem, however: sometimes the upper part of the frame appears on the bottom of the page with no text in it (because there's not enough room). The strange thing is that if I comment out the setupcolors macro the problem disappears (in the example that is). I have included an example of this below. Run with texexec --pdf test.tex The version of texexec I'm using is: TeXExec 5.2.4 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texexec : TeXExec 5.2.4 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texutil : TeXUtil 9.0.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2004 tex : pdfeTeX, 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4) context : ver: 2005.01.31 cont-en : ver: 2005.01.31 fmt: 2009.1.26 mes: english Thanks in advance Trychius -- test.tex -- \installlanguage[en] \setuppapersize[A4] \definelayout[myCustomLayout][ header=10mm,% height of header footer=10mm,% height of footer topspace=8mm, % space above header bottomspace=\topspace, % space below footer backspace=25mm, cutspace=20mm, width=middle, height=middle, marking=on, % enable the marking of text grid=yes, ] \setuplayout[myCustomLayout] \setuptyping[margin=10mm, space=off, % Do not show space characters explicitely color=black, % Color of verbatim text ] \setupcolors[state=start] \definetextbackground[FramedText][ location=paragraph, rulethickness=0.5pt, framecolor=red, background=color,backgroundcolor=yellow, leftoffset=1.0\bodyfontsize,rightoffset=1.0\bodyfontsize, topoffset=1.0\bodyfontsize,bottomoffset=1.0\bodyfontsize, frame=on] \starttext in this story took place, some of the most important mines of the Scottish coal beds had been exhausted by too rapid working.

Re: [NTG-context] framed text question (Aditya Mahajan)
Okay, the before={\testpage[] ...} seems to solve my problems with the
hanging empty text backgrounds.
Thanks Aditya

Hi,
I have a question regarding framed text.
To obtain framed verbatim text that breaks over pages, I use the macro
\definetextbackground. I have encountered a slight problem, however:
sometimes the upper part of the frame appears on the bottom of the
page with no text in it (because there's not enough room). The strange
thing is that if I comment out the setupcolors macro the problem
disappears (in the example that is).
I sometimes use
\definetextbackground[][before={\testpage[3], .. other options .. ]
The \testpage[3] checks if there is enough space to put three lines, if
not it issues a page break. In most cases this gets rid of the hanging
empty text backgrounds at the bottom of a page.
