[NTG-context] TikZ: align=left does not work
Dear list,
there seems to be a bug regarding the alignment of text inside nodes.
If the TikZ picture is inside a centered or ragged left environment,
align=left is not interpreted correctly. MWE attached.
Kind regards,
Joshua

However, this name is *not* shown in the mtxrun output. Interestingly, I have also seen mtxrun show the family name (different from the font name) for other fonts, so I really do not know how it makes up its output. It is certainly not useful to find out the name that is to be used in ConTeXt.

The position of the \hyphenatedurlseparator symbol depends currently
on the breakpoint in the url, when the break is allowed after a

The question is now if this is intended or can it be changed.
I can hardly imagine this to be intended. The reader should be
informed about a break as soon as he reaches the break, so he knows the
word/token is not finished yet. As we read from top to bottom, the
end of the top line is where this information should be.
Another thing where we can discuss is the way to set the separator,
e.g. \sethypehantedurlseparator{…} seems more appropriate than
\def\hyphenatedurlseparator{…} because we already have other \setXXX
commands.
Agreed.
The second URL has a linebreak in front of the colon, which I do
not want.
The points where contexts is allowed to break a url at :/# etc. are
predefined in the Lua code.
When you want to change this you have to use the three commands
- \sethyphenatedurlbefore{…}
- \sethyphenatedurlafter{…}
- \sethyphenatedurlnormal{…}
Could you please change my minimal example (attached at the
end) accordingly? I want an URL like http://optimist; to be wrapped
after :// only, not in front of the colon. I couldn't find out how to
achieve this. I also want no linebreak to occur between two slahes

also don't understand the meaning of \sethyphenatedurlnormal {...}.

[NTG-context] Custom breakpoints for \hyphenatedurl
Dear list,
I could successfully configure ConTeXt to introduce linebreaks /after/
some characters in URLs with \sethyphenatedurlafter {...}
I would also like to disable linebreaks /before/ some of the predefined
characters. For example, no linebreak should occur before :
Is this possible? \sethyphenatedurlbefore {} (with empty braces)
does not work.
Unfortunately, usage of \sethyphenatedurlafter also introduced the
following problem: the \hyphenatedurlseparator symbol now appears
after the linebreak, i.e. at the beginning of the new line. Can I do
something about it?

On 2014-08-02, 22:36, Procházka Lukáš wrote:
OK, thanks for explanation.
This means that one has to switch to \os only when a number is to be
printed.
So when I want all numbers in the document to be old-style (and also
ligatures etc. be kept), I have to:
1) switch to {\os } when writing a number manually,
2) define old-style-making-commands wherever numbers are generated
automatically, i.e. e.g.:
Just do it the way Wolfgang said, using features:
\definefontfeature [default] [default] [lnum=yes, onum=no]
\definefontfamily [latinmodern] [serif] [Latin Modern Roman]
\setupbodyfont[latinmodern, 12pt]
\definefontfeature[oldstyle][lnum=no, onum=yes]
\starttext
Regular figures: 0123456789
{\addfeature[oldstyle] Local oldstyle figures: 0123456789}
\stoptext
This way, lining figures are enabled by default, and you can change to
oldstyle figures locally. if you wna tit the other way round, just
change the default feature to onum=yes, lnum=no and create a new
feature for local lining figures with onum=no, lnum=yes.

Re: [NTG-context] How to make floats extend into the outer margin
Thank you, Wolfang, it works great.
There's only one problem: I also have even bigger floats which I need

undesired shifting, see the attached example.
How can I avoid the shifting for those? I've tried to set command={}

May it be even possible to let Context automatically determine if the
float is to be turned right or left, depending on its page?
By the way, is \definemeasure meant as a replacement for \newdimen and
\dimexpr? Are there caveats about switching to it?

[NTG-context] How to make floats extend into the outer margin
Dear list,
I have some big-width floats, and want them to span the regular text
width plus the outer margin. I can position them manually with \kern.
Is there a way to make them automatically extend into the outer
margin? I have tried different options for location=... without
success.
Thanks and kind regards,
Joshua Krämer
Example with manual positioning:
\setuplayout [backspace=3cm, width=13.5cm, topspace=2cm, height=24.7cm,
margin=1.5cm, margindistance=0cm, header=0cm, footer=0cm,
footerdistance=0cm]
\newdimen\Bigtextwidth \Bigtextwidth=15cm
\setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided]
\showframe
\starttext
\startplacefigure
\leavevmode\kern-1.5cm\framed [width=\Bigtextwidth, framecolor=red] %
{Left margin}
\stopplacefigure
\startplacefigure
\leavevmode\kern0cm\framed [width=\Bigtextwidth, framecolor=red] %
{Right margin}

Re: [NTG-context] Which Image quality should I use ?
On 2014-07-12, 14:58, Pol Stra wrote: I wonder, what can I do to reduce the size of those files while keeping a printable quality document? Besides reducing the resolution, you can reduce the number of colours used in a PNG picture, which is called colour quantization. For example, we can differentiate between ca. 12 levels of gray (between black and white) with our eyes. So it is useless to differentiate between hundreds of different colours in a gray picture. I quantize all my gray pictures to use 12 colours only, and the difference is usually not visible, but it leads to a much smaller file size. For coloured pictures, you need of course more different colours, you have to try different values with each picture to find the best number. I use the tool pngnq for quantization. After quantization, one can further losslessy compress an image by removing unnecessary meta informations from the file, which can be done automatically with the tool Trimage. I've got both pngnq and Trimage from the repositories of my Linux distribution.

[NTG-context] Bibliography: only surname in small caps
Dear list, I would like to have in a bibliography only surnames in small capitals, like this: MÜLLER, B. and SCHNEIDER A. (Müller and Schneider appear in small caps, but everything else like and is still in the default typeface.) At the moment, I'm using the old bibliography system. I am a bit overwhelmed by the new system, because I would have to setup everything from the beginning, as I have setup my layouts with \setuppublicationlayout. Now my questions are: Is it possible to achieve what I want (SC surnames) with the old and the new system? If I would do it with the old system, am I right that I would have to redefine \normalauthor or define my own authorcommand? How could it be done with the new system?

[NTG-context] frames, hrule, vfill and pagebreaks (was: Vertically stretched split table)
Dear list,
at first, I thought the following code (simplified) with frames,
hrules and vfills between them would work to typeset my table. However,
I have now realized that sometimes a pagebreak occurs before the final
(invisible) hrule, and then there's no vfill at the bottom of the page.
See this example:
\setuplayout [backspace=10mm, width=middle, topspace=10mm,
height=middle, header=0mm, headerdistance=0mm, footer=1mm,
footerdistance=0mm]
\setupframed[frame=on,framecolor=green,location=middle,align=right]
\define [2] \Tabline {
\hrule
\page[no]
\vfill
\dontleavehmode\framed[width=60mm]{#1}\framed[width=100mm]{#2}
\vfill
\hrule height 0pt
\par\page[bigpreference]
}
\setupbackgrounds[footer][text][topframe=on]
\starttext
\Tabline{\dorecurse{100}{word }}{\dorecurse{150}{word }}
\Tabline{\dorecurse{170}{word }}{\dorecurse{100}{word }}
\stoptext
How can I make sure a pagebreak occurs only between the Tablines?
The Tabline on the 1st page should appear centered, too. \page[no]
before \hrule height 0pt has no effect.

The letters in the second and third line don’t look beautiful because the horizontal and vertical strokes don’t match. As I said, I'm working on a typeface design. When one tries to optically match an upright and a slanted (italic) font, several factors that influence the apparent (optical) size of the letters have to be considered: the letters of a slanted font with the same vertical x-height as an upright font are bigger along their slant axis, but their counters (inner letter space) are smaller due to the slant. Additionally, the different letter forms play an important role. Very small differences mathematically in slant and letter-width can make a big difference optically. To try out different values, I mathematically stretch and slant the letters by small amounts. Afterwards, of course, when the right values have been found, the letters have to be reworked by hand. Another use-case for the extend feature could be to stretch/compress a line (e.g. a title) to the desired length. If the line is only a little bit too long or too short, compressing or stretching all the letters by for example less than 1% can be enough to add up to the desired amount.

[NTG-context] Tabulator in database file not passed to Lua
Dear list,
I use the database module to load the lines of a file with some
data. The lines are then separated with a lua script. I use lua,
because I need to do some other things with the data (rounding
numbers, combining some fields etc.) Please consider the following
minimal working example:
\usemodule[database]
\defineseparatedlist [Data]
[
before=,
after=,
separator={},
commentchar=\letterpercent,
command=\Tabrow,
]
\startluacode
function explode(sep,str)
if (sep==) then return false end
local pos,arr = 0,{}
-- for each separator found
for st,sp in function() return string.find(str,sep,pos,true) end do
-- Attach chars left of current separator
table.insert(arr,string.sub(str,pos,st-1))
-- Jump past current separator
pos = sp + 1
end
-- Attach chars right of last separator
table.insert(arr,string.sub(str,pos))
return arr
end
function tabrow(fileline)
local tabarray = explode(;,fileline)
local tabline =
for index,value in ipairs(tabarray) do
tabline = tabline .. / .. value
end
return tabline
end
\stopluacode
\define[1]\Tabrow{\ctxlua{context(tabrow(#1))}}
\starttext
\processseparatedfile[Data][Test.dat]
\stoptext
This is the content of the file Test.dat:
Eins;zwei;drei;vier
Of course the line separation could be done easier with the database
module. However, I thought this way I could use the tabulator as the
separator in my file. But when I change the separator from ; to
\\t, it doesn't work. I suppose this is because the tabulators are
passed to Lua as spaces. Or is \\t the wrong code? Would it be
possible to use tabulators as separators, if I load the file with lua
and not with the database module?
Kind regards,
Joshua Krämer

Re: [NTG-context] Disable balancing of page bottoms
I have found out that I had interpreted the problem wrongly. It is
not a problem of balancing, it is a problem of the layout macros. I
use a different page layout for the titlepage and switch to the main
layout later. This switch is in the front matter part, which results
in the new layout being respected for one page only. Somehow for
subsequent pages, the layout is wrong.
Here's a MWE:
\definelayout[Titlelayout][width=10cm,height=10cm,header=0cm,footer=0cm]
\definelayout[Mainlayout][width=10cm,height=25cm,header=0cm,footer=0cm]
\showframe
\definestartstop[Titlepage][
before={\setuplayout[Titlelayout]},
after={
\page[yes]
\setuplayout[Mainlayout]
}]
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\startTitlepage
Title
\stopTitlepage
\stopfrontmatter
\dorecurse{5}{\input{knuth}}
\placetable[270,page]{none}
{\setupTABLE[option=stretch, textwidth=25cm]
\bTABLE \bTR \bTD 1 \eTD \bTD 2 \eTD \eTR \eTABLE}
\dorecurse{5}{\input{knuth}}
\stoptext
The frames are drawn correctly on all pages. But only page 2 is filled
with text completely. On subsequent pages, the real layout seems to be
too short. If I remove \startfrontmatter and \stopfrontmatter, the
problem disappears. It also works if I input \setuplayout[Mainlayout]
in the preamble, which is cleaner anyway because it is independent of
the titlepage macros.

Joshua Krämer

[NTG-context] Disable balancing of page bottoms
Dear list! Context (Mk IV) balances the bottoms of doublesided pages, even if I use \raggedbottom. How can I disable this? I'm thinking of something like balance=no for columns, only for pages. My problem is that I have a one-page float (rotated table) with the size of the textheight. The opposite page is not completely filled with text, which makes context crop the height of the page with the float, too, resulting in a shift of the float into the upper margin. That's why I want to disable balancing.

Re: [NTG-context] Mixing math and text font
Thanks for your hard work! I have a few additional questions regarding
the new system and font fallbacks.
(1) How can I replace the hyphen automatically inserted at linebreaks?
If I use the following, only manually inserted hyphens are replaced:
\definefallbackfamily[mainface][serif][TeX Gyre Termes][range={0x0002d}]
(2) What effect does force=yes have? It doesn't seem to make a
difference for me.
(3) I have a typeface that uses unusual style names: roman1, roman2,
italic1, italic2; 1 is regular, 2 is bold weight. The following
works:
\definefontfamily[xxxface][serif][xxx][regularfont=xxxroman1,
italicfont=xxxitalic1, boldfont=xxxroman2]
\setupbodyfont[xxxface]
\starttext
abc {\it abc} {\bf abc}
\stoptext
This works for roman1 only:
\definefontfamily[xxxface][serif][xxx][regularfont=spec:roman1,
italicfont=spec:italic1, boldfont=spec:roman2]
Even this works for roman1 only:
\definefontfamily[xxxface][serif][xxx][regularfont=spec:roman1,

The name of the font files has nothing to do with way how
\definefontfamily collects the individual files for each style, to do
this it uses internal names and values from the font.
I've got the values from the output of mtxrun --script fonts --list
--all --pattern=xxx (and compared with the name/style values in
Fontforge), so I don't understand why spec:roman1 works, but
spec:italic1 doesn't.
Additionally, what I think must be a bug is that
italicfont=file:xxxitalic1, boldfont=file:xxxroman2 works but stops
working if I add regularfont=spec:roman1:
\definefontfamily[xxxface][serif][xxx][regularfont=spec:roman1,
italicfont=file:xxxitalic1, boldfont=file:xxxroman2]
Maybe if one of the values uses the spec: selector, all the values
are treated as spec values despite the file: selector given?
When you use a opentype math font the upright, italic, bold etc.
characters are all in the same file which uses only the regular style
(a few math fonts provide also a bold style which can be useful in
headings).
Because there is only a upright math font you have to set a fallbacks
also for the upright style even when the font you’re using is italic,
e.g.
\definefallbackfamily[xxxface][math][xxx][tf=file:xxxitalic1,preset=math:lowercaseitalic]
Thanks, this works. For some reason, tf= works, but regularfont=
doesn't.
And by the way, this works:
\definefontfamily[leitura][serif][Leitura News][regularfont=spec:roman2]
and this doesn't work:
\definefontfamily[leitura][serif][Leitura News][tf=spec:roman2]
So in some cases only regularfont seems to work, and in some cases
only tf.

[NTG-context] Mixing math and text font
Dear list, in my math, I would like one font (the text font) to be used for letters and digits and another font (the math font) to be used for mathematical symbols. I have tried it like that: % Example 1 \usemodule[simplefonts][size=40pt] \setmathfont[termes] \setmainfont[latinmodernroman] \starttext 123\\$ 123 \coprod \leftrightarrow $ \stoptext % Example 2 \definetypeface [fonttest] [rm][serif] [modern] \definetypeface [fonttest] [mm][math] [termes] \setupbodyfont[fonttest, 40pt] \starttext 123\\$ 123 \coprod \leftrightarrow $ \stoptext In both examples, the math font is used for the whole formula. How can I mix the fonts?

Am Sat, 04 Jan 2014 12:47:24 -0500 schrieb Aditya Mahajan: You ask for modern as the text font and termes as the math font, and that is what you get. Can you elaborate what do you mean by 'mix the fonts'? What output do you want to get. For the text font I use (it's a commercial typeface), a matching math font doesn't exist. Now if I use for example Termes as the math font, the formulae don't match the regular text, because the letters and digits differ. That's why I want in the formulae math symbols like special arrows and operators to be taken from Termes, but regular alphanumeric characters from my text font. So in my minimal examples, 123 should look the same in the text and the formula.

[NTG-context] widowpenalty in mixedcolumns
Dear list,
while \widowpenalty is respected in conventional columns, inside or
outside \startmixedcolumns and \stopmixedcolumns, it is ignored. How can
I make ConTeXt avoid widows in mixedcolumns?
(I can't use conventional columns, some things like distance=... don't
work there.)
Thank you,
Joshua Krämer
MWE:
\starttext
\startmixedcolumns
%\startcolumns
\widowpenalty1
\dorecurse{290}{word }
\dorecurse{250}{second }
\stopmixedcolumns

\stoptext

[NTG-context] textreference in a protocol (minutes)
Dear list members,
I use ConTeXt MkIV to typeset the protocol (minutes) of a meeting. In my
macros, I use \textreference and \about to reuse the text from the agenda
list in the actual sections. It's like the regular table of contents,
but reversed (see the below MWE). I do it like that because sometimes
entries in the agenda list are skipped in the meeting, and that means
they have to appear in the agenda list, but there is no corresponding
section. Now my problem is that the \textreference content is cut off if
it is too long, as seen in the below MWE. How can I disable the
cropping? Additionally, if somebody can think of a better solution than
my \textreference approach, please let me know.
Thank you,
Joshua Krämer
Minimal Working Example:
\def\Agendaentry#1#2{\sym{#1}\textreference[Agendaentry#1]{#2}#2}
\setupreferencing[left={},right={}]
\newcount\Agendaentrynr
\def\Agendasection#1%
{%
\Agendaentrynr=#1%
\advance\Agendaentrynr -1\relax
\setupheadnumber[section][\the\Agendaentrynr]%
\section{\about[Agendaentry#1]}%
}
\starttext
Agenda
\startitemize
\Agendaentry{4}{Berichte des Vorsitzers, des Schatzmeisters und des
Schriftleiters}

[NTG-context] Simplefonts and inherited style
Dear list members,
I need a second font in my text for the purpose of mark-up. This font is
defined with \definesimplefonttypeface. If I switch to a font variant
like bold and afterwards to the second font, the second font doesn't
inherit this style. It only works the other way around (switching to the
second font first, then to another style). In the following example, the
whole section title should be typeset in bold, but the part using the
second font is typeset in the regular style. How can I make it inherit
the bold style?
Thank you,
Joshua Krämer
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setmainfont[dejavuserif]
\definesimplefonttypeface[Secondfont][dejavusans]
\setuphead[section][style={\tf\bf}]

Re: [NTG-context] Simplefonts and inherited style
Dear Wolfgang, thank you, this does the trick. I didn't try \setsansfont, because in reality I don't use serif and sans fonts but blackletter and roman. Does a more general solution exist? If not, I will misuse \setsansfont. By the way, is this new simplefonts version only available in the context beta? I've made an update but still the new commands don't work.

[NTG-context] Problems with columns and grid
Hello list, in the following minimal working example (using Mark IV), the \column command is ignored. It works if the grid is disabled or balance=no is set. I need the grid, and regarding the balance: without balance, the columns use the whole type area height, but I want additional text to appear underneath the columns. The height parameter doesn't seem to control the columns' height. So my question is: How can I make \column to work or how can I at least set the column height as a workaround? \setuplayout[grid=yes] \starttext \startcolumns%[balance=no] left \column right 1\\right 2 \stopcolumns \stoptext Kind regards, Joshua ___ 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 ___
