[NTG-context] \setupquotation affecting \quote
Hi, I've been trying to use \setupquotation, but it seems it doesn't just affect \quotation, but also \quote. In particular, setting style to tfb enlarges the font used by \quote and somehow removes the quotes from around it. Seeing that there is also a \setupquote, and from looking at the code, I think this is not supposed to happen. This happens with MkII as well as MkIV, it seems. The following example shows the problem: \starttext \quote{Foo} \setupquotation[style=tfb] \quote{Bar} \stoptext Gr.

[NTG-context] Float captions with hanging indentation
Hello, I am a new ConTeXt user recently switched from LaTeX (with small amounts of raw TeX macrosity) which I used for several years. I was searching the internet, this mailing list and finally the ConTeXt sources to find some information about achieving hanging indentation in captions. The 'hang' option for the 'caption' LaTeX package [1] was my inspiration (you can see an example on the 3 page of the linked manual). The only thing I could find was an old reply from Taco Hoekwater [2] but as he mentions this does not work well. After digging inside the source code of both ConTeXt and caption.sty I managed to hack the \putcompletecaption macro to do what I need. (see below) The changes required are minimal (capture the caption head into a box, remember its width and later set \hangindent and \hangafter while typessing the caption body) so maybe this could go into the main ConTeXt tree? Unfortunately I do not know how to make use of the setup macros so this currently hardcodes the hanging indentation. \unprotect \newdimen\captionhang \def\putcompletecaption#1#2% {\doifsomething{\floatcaptionparameter\c!spacebefore}{\blank[\floatcaptionparameter\c!spacebefore]}% % \floatcaptionparameter\c!before % test for side effects first \noindent \xdef\lastcaptiontag{\strut#1}% \dostartattributes{\??kj\currentfloat}\c!style\c!color\empty \setbox0\hbox{% \ifnofloatnumber \else \hbox{\doattributes{\??kj\currentfloat}\c!headstyle\c!headcolor{\strut#1}}% \ifnofloatcaption \else \ifemptyfloatcaption \else \doifelsenothing{\floatcaptionparameter\c!spaceinbetween} {\scratchskip\floatcaptionparameter\c!distance\relax \dotfskip\scratchskip\emergencystretch.5\scratchskip} {\blank[\floatcaptionparameter\c!spaceinbetween]}% \fi \fi \fi }% \captionhang=\wd0\unhbox0% \ifnofloatcaption \globallet\lastcaptionht\!!zeropoint \globallet\lastcaptiondp\!!zeropoint \else \doattributes{\??kj\currentfloat}\c!textstyle\c!textcolor {\hangindent=\captionhang\hangafter=1% \xdef\lastcaptionht{\strutheight}% \xdef\lastcaptiondp{\strutdepth}% \begstrut#2\endstrut\endgraf}% \fi \dostopattributes % \floatcaptionparameter\c!after % test for side effects first \doifsomething{\floatcaptionparameter\c!spaceafter}{\blank[\floatcaptionparameter\c!spaceafter]}} \protect [1]: http://www.dd.chalmers.se/latex/Docs/PDF/caption.pdf [2]: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.context/21675/focus=21676 -- regards, Jakub Piotr Cłapa ___ 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] Installing minimals
Hi! On the 16th of September I mentioned that I had problems to install the minimals. Further, on my portable, the one I used during EuroTeX I could not connect to INTERNET anymore even after changing the connection parameters!! I then decide to un-install the firewall program I use (COMODO -- which I disabled when I tried to install the minimals, but with no result) and... everything is now OK: I could reconnect and more important install the minimals. Still a problem using TeXworks: the synctex system is not working: neither adding -synctex=1 in Preferences or \synctex=1 at the start of the tex source. Synctex appeared only in MikTeX 2.7 by a special (?) instruction in the pdftex (?) program. Is synctex taken into account in context?
