Re: [NTG-context] Float placement problem

Hello,
I've recently updated my standalone (32-bit Linux) ConTeXT from
2011.02.25 to 2011.09.20, and I'm now having some trouble with float
placement. I'm using MkIV. I'm trying to have figures protruding into
the outer margins with a double-sided layout, as described here:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Floating_Objects#Protruding_Floats_in_Double-Sided_Documents
Here is my minimal example:
\setuplayout[location=doublesided]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location={margin,header}]
\setupfloat[figure][location=inner]
\showframe
\starttext
% An extra page. \page[yes]
\dorecurse{4}{
\placefigure[]{caption}{\externalfigure[cow.pdf][width=17cm]}}
\stoptext
With version 2011.02.25 this produces the desired result; with
2011.09.20, the first figure is placed correctly, and all subsequent
figures protrude in the same direction, whether they're on an even or
odd page. So in the given example they all protrude to the right. If
an extra page is inserted at the start so that the first figure is on
an even page, they all protrude to the left.
Does anyone have any ideas or insights?
Should be fixed in the next beta.

Re: [NTG-context] [OT] intelligent commas in math (in LaTeX)

In principle a cleaner implementation is possible in luatex (without

Hm, can you explain this a bit ?
Currently ConTeXt already checks if '.' is part of a complete number or not
as part of the export macros. For example:
\m{x + 1.25y = 3.5}
exports as
m:math
display=inlinem:mrowm:mi푥/m:mim:mo+/m:mom:mn1.25/m:mnm:mi푦/m:mim:mo=/m:mom:mn3.5/m:mn/m:mrow/m:math
Notice that 1.25 is part of a single m:mn tag.
In contrast, if you use comma as a math delimiter, then the export function
does not recognize the number correctly.
\m{x + 1,25y = 3.5}
exports as
m:math
display=inlinem:mrowm:mi푥/m:mim:mo+/m:mom:mn1/m:mnm:mo,/m:mom:mn25/m:mnm:mi푦/m:mim:mo=/m:mom:mn3/m:mnm:mo,/m:mom:mn5/m:mn/m:mrow/m:math
However, we do have a \mn macro (math number) to tag numbers. So you can
type
\m{x + \mn{1,25}y = \mn{3,5}}
which exports as
m:math
display=inlinem:mrowm:mi푥/m:mim:mo+/m:mom:mn1,25/m:mnm:mi푦/m:mim:mo=/m:mom:mn3,5/m:mn/m:mrow/m:math
So, if we want to recognize ',' as a decimal separator, two solutions are
possible in MkIV. The first is to build upon the existing export code that
recognizes '.' as a decimal separator (to figure out the contents of the
mn tag) to also recognize ',' as a decimal separator;
The drawback of such an approach is that if you are in the habit of not
adding a space after a comma, for example writing Let $\naturalnumbers$
denote the set $\{1,2,3,\dots\}$ of natural numbers... then you will get
wrong output.
So, an alternative option is to ask the user to tag all numbers with \mn.
Then, the \mn{...} macro can redefine the comma so that the spaces around it
match its use as a decimal separator.

[NTG-context] new beta
Hi, I uploaded a new beta. Apart from some fixes the following has been added/changed. Some are side effects of discussions at the context meeting. - Default sorting now mixes upper and lowercase. - Some presentation styles had problems loading due to changes in the structure commands. - A few improvements to the (mixed) scite lexers / spell checkers (plus an experimental pdf lexer). - Export of some math scripts (ssty related) .. an other buglet mojca and I noticed has to wait for a luatex engine fix. - An extra alignment option 'last' to center the last line. - Missing references are now listed in the log file. - Segments can be specified as n:* (as n:100 looks somewhat weird). - Virtual math has been adapted to the latest insights in open type math. However, the biggest new thing is adapted cross document referencing. This was already possible but we could not yet load external references (as in mkii). See http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/magazines/mag-1103.pdf for how it works in mkiv. The test files cross-*.tex demonstrate a couple of things. If one uses the project structure, then one can process a component of a product and it will pick up references from the main product as well as (given normal circumstances) start at the right chapter number and page. Of course this is only a convenience option (for proofing) as there is a dependency on the state of the parent product. Given the fact that cross referencing data is spread over several data structures this was a somewhat complex exercise. As a side effect the tuc file now uses its own (temporary) namespace. Hopefully nothing breaks due to these changes. Hans ps. Wolfgang: strc-ref is now a mkvi file. - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ 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 ___

Even when you patch this you don’t get any output because context tries (in the
example below) to use the label “August:mnem” but only the label “august:mnem”
is defined.

which makes me wonder ... in the past these v! were used instead of
labels but it might make more sense now to lowercase the v!
okay?

This explains why you use variables as keys in \setuplabeltext etc.

There is also a bug for the labels in the form “month:mnem” in lang-lab.lua
function languages.labels.define()
local variables = interfaces.variables
local data = languages.data.labels
local function define(command,list,prefixed)
if list then
context.pushcatcodes(prtcatcodes) -- context.unprotect
for tag, data in next, list do
if data.hidden then
-- skip
else
for language, text in next, data.labels do
if text == then
-- skip
elseif prefixed and rawget(variables,tag) then
...
“rawget” checks if a variable “month:mnem” is defined but since this isn’t
the case
the label is defined as “\setuplabeltext[lang][month:mnem=value]” and not
as “\setuplabeltext[lang][\v!month:mnem=value]” with the month as
variable.

[NTG-context] Visual debugging

Yes, I know these tricks. A quick workaround to this problem is to use the
\setuppapersize[A4,landscape][A4,landscape]
and then add either
%\pdfpagesattr{/Rotate 90} --pdftex, luatex
%\special{pdf:put @pages /Rotate 90} --xetex, dvipdfmx

\doPDFpagesattribute{/Rotate 90}

Sure.
But I was also answering you second question about rotating a page without
