[NTG-context] color problem
Dear Reader,
I have a colored section, text in another color and a TikZ picture with a
differently colored node, following each other. However, either the node
gets the wrong color or the following paragraph, see example below.
Is there something wrong with the section settings? How do I get all the
colors right without using a paragraph in between?
\setuphead[chapter]
[
style={\tfd},
color={A2plus},
]
\setuphead[section]
[
style={\tfc},
color={A3plus},
]

\definecolor[A2plus][h=B6437E]
\definecolor[A3plus][h=606ABD]
\definecolor[A4plus][h=FFC700]
\definecolor[A5plus][h=D0202B]
\definecolor[A6plus][h=EF8600]
\definecolor[A7plus][h=0082AA]
\setupcolors[textcolor=A1plus]
\usemodule[tikz]
\starttext
\startchapter[title={Colour test}, ref=colourtest]
\startsection[title={Section}]
\starttikzpicture
\draw[text=A6plus] (0,0) rectangle (2,1) node[right] {node text should be
orange};
\stoptikzpicture
\par This a paragraph which gets the colour of the section for no reason.
\stopsection
\stopchapter
\startchapter[title={Colour test 2}, ref=colourtest]
\startsection[title={Another section }]

[NTG-context] library 'uni' is unknown
Dear Reader, https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Symbols shows predefined symbol sets. The uni and wasysym are unknown. Hereby my example: \usesymbols[mvs] \usesymbols[uni] \usesymbols[wasysym] %% \usesymbols[ifsym] \starttext \par Show entire set martinvogel 1 \showsymbolset[martinvogel 1] \par Show YinYang symbol from martinvogel 2. \crlf \symbol[martinvogel 2][YinYang] %% \symbol[Alpine Symbol][Flag] \stoptext Console output fonts > symbols > library 'mvs' loaded fonts > symbols > library 'uni' is unknown fonts > symbols > library 'wasysym' is unknown The ultimate goal is to show a flag from the alpine symbol set from ifsym. However, I will settle with a flag from uni if it means I don't have to install files.

[NTG-context] how to do adaptation
Hi,
I am looking for ways to adapt the layout and content of texts while
using ConTeXt. Put simple: show part of a text and sort these parts
based on data from the user and the author (.dat file). The biggest
problem is not knowing which part of the text will be first and how
many parts will be shown.
So far, I am trying to get a hang of \setupdocument
(https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Project_structure), \startmode
(https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modes), \definecolor
(https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Color) and \defineparagraphs
(https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/defineparagraphs)
I hope there are more ways to create adaptation.
I would also like to know whether certain combination don't work
together. For example, I cannot seem to get \doifmodeelse to work
inside a \defineparagraphs environment.
\defineparagraphs[BLpar][n=2, frame=on]
\setupparagraphs [BLpar][1][width=\dimexpr.3\textwidth]
\starttext
% Working
\enablemode[asg]
\doifmodeelse{asg} {\par First sentence} {\par Second sentence}
\disablemode[asg]
\doifmodeelse{asg} {\par First sentence} {\par Second sentence}
\doifnotmode{asg} {\par Third sentence}
% Not working
\enablemode[one]
\startBLpar
\doifmodeelse{one} {First sentence} {Second sentence} \disablemode[one]
\BLpar
% \disablemode[one] %% not helping
TOP1 paragraphs
\stopBLpar
% \disablemode[one] %% needed to make the example work
\startBLpar
\doifmodeelse{one} {First sentence} {Second sentence}
\BLpar
TOP2 paragraphs
\stopBLpar
\startBLpar
\doifnotmode{one} {Third sentence}
\BLpar
TOP3 paragraphs
\stopBLpar
\stoptext
Kind regards,
Susanne G. Loeber

[NTG-context] question regarding \placefloats
Dear Reader, I have a document with figures and tables. I have tried to use the command \placefloats to create a list of all my floats as recommended on the page Floating Objects, section Flushing floats. There it states: The command \placefloats outputs all pending floats. I hoped to get a list with all tables, all figures and all other possible floats.That list would either be sorted per chapter or sorted per float. However, I was not able to make it work at all. In the appendix, you can find my struggles. First: \placefloats does not work. \placelistoffloats does not exist as a command My solution is two seperate commands, one for the tables \placelistoftables and one for the figures \completelistoffigures. Question: how to use \placefloats correctly to get a list of all floats? Second: \startcombination[1*2] looks nice, but does not add information to the \placelistoffigures . My solution is to place the \startcombination inside a \placefigure. Question: Is there a better way? Kind regards, thanks, Susanne placefloat.tex Description: Binary data ___ 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://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
