[NTG-context] Lists of cross-references

2006-10-13 Thread Fredrik Sjunnesson
Hello, I'm working on functions for displaying lists of cross-references between documents and I'm therefore a bit curious to here if others have similar needs. If there are, maybe I should try to make a real module and not just at private hack. Maybe modules for this already exist. A

[NTG-context] aux files organization

2006-10-13 Thread andrea valle
Hi to all, compiling a conTeXt file means generating 6 auxiliary files. This means that that if I have 4 related .tex files in a folder I will have 24 aux files. Is there a way to specify a folder where to place them in order not to clutter my project folder? (The ideal would be that the aux

Hi Peter, Using different layers, you can change the order of appearance (background={1,2,3}|{1,3,2},..) for the layer content. Using only one layer, all layer content is placed stack like; the printing order is then fixed by the appearance order in the document (last overprints prior).

Example: \definelayer[layer2a][width=.15\paperwidth] \setlayer [layer2a] [x=.15\paperwidth, y=.5\paperheight] {\externalfigure[layTest][width=.75\paperwidth]} I was expecting to have the layTest figure cut after its width exceeds the layer's width.
