[NTG-context] report of strange(?) output depending on the location of \StartSteps ... \StopSteps
Dear all,
This is a small thing which is OK to be ignored.
Please pardon me if it is a noise for you.
I used to use \usemodule[pre60] for step by step output for presentation.
Some time ago, I faced a strange pdf output.
For example, I want two steps inside the second item. So, I use the following:
\usemodule[pre60]
...
...
Test of \tex{StartSteps}.
\blank
\startitemize
\item first item
\item second item
\StartSteps
\startitemize
\item flush 1 \FlushStep
\item flush 2 \FlushStep
\stopitemize
\StopSteps
\item third item
\stopitemize
\page
\starttable[|c|c|c|c|c|c|]
\HL
\VL \VL A \VL B \VL C \VL D \VL E \VL\FR
\HL
\VL \VL 2\VL 1\VL 3\VL 2\VL 2\VL\SR
\HL
\stoptable
...
I got correct steps flush1 and flush 2, but the table after the steps was
disappeared.(just white page)
If I change the order of table and items, both are displayed and worked well. I
have tested in many ways to know why the table disappeared after \StartStep. I
found that it is neither the order of the code nor the some other settings.
It is the level of the location of \StartSteps.
If I put \StartSteps in the first level of itemization, there is no problem. Of
course, I have to put more \FlushStep like
Test of \tex{StartSteps}.
\blank
\StartSteps
\startitemize
\item first item
\item second item \FlushStep
\StartSteps
\startitemize
\item flush 1 \FlushStep
\item flush 2 \FlushStep
\stopitemize
\StopSteps
\item third item \FlushStep
\stopitemize
\page
\starttable[|c|c|c|c|c|c|]
\HL
\VL \VL A \VL B \VL C \VL D \VL E \VL\FR
\HL
\VL \VL 2\VL 1\VL 3\VL 2\VL 2\VL\SR
\HL
\stoptable
I report this just for information which may be already known to Hans,
Wolfgang, et al.
One appreciation is that \StartSteps ... \StopSteps works well with
Simpleslides module nicely!
Thanks and have a nice weekend.
Best regards,
Dalyoung

Re: [NTG-context] italic corrrection?
Add \definefontfeature[default][default][itlc=yes] before \setupbodyfont.
Thanks but allthough this has an effect on the default modern, it does not made
a difference for lucidaot.
Is the TUG delivered lucidaot deficient with respect to the italic correction?
It is hard to believe!
I have two examples added, both modern and lucidaot to show the (tiny)
difference.
I looked it up in the sources and found it in typo-itc.mkiv.
From there I deduced when should have something akin to:
\definefontfeature[default][default][itlc=yes,notextitalics=yes] what are
notextitalics?
\setupitaliccorrection[global] (and other values)
Quite involved for a font layman, like me.
Hans van der Meer
Example was
% italic correction
\setuppapersize[A6][A6]
\definefontfeature[default][default][itlc=yes,notextitalics=yes]
\setupitaliccorrection[global]
\setupbodyfont[modern,24pt] % or with lucidaot

Re: [NTG-context] report of strange(?) output depending on the location of \StartSteps ... \StopSteps
Dear Hans, You're not suppodes to nest the start/stop commands .. I've adapted the module to ignore nesting. I didn't nest the \StartSteps ...\StopSteps, but I used it in a nested \startitemize. Now, I understand why such a strange output was produced. Thank you for a clear explanation. (Some day I'll redo the code and make it a bit more clever.) It is good enough to use \StartSteps in current beta.

I goes there is no correction for the “n” but try this example with/without the

Re: [NTG-context] italic corrrection?
Thanks,
I see the difference appearing in lucidaot with your example.
A pity italic correction isn't available for the n (and some others, I fear).
It makes {\it n}x{\it n} for n multiplied by n harder in the text, as I find
$n\times n$ within running text to alien looking. That makes {\it n}\,x{\it n}
perhaps the best solution.

One more question, though: if one wanted to design the slides with
*different* title and body fonts, as I do, how would one do that? This is
why I tried \setupbodyfont and ran into my initial difficulties.
Use
\setupSlideTitle
[style={ any font command }]
The default value of style is \switchtobodyfont[\SlideTitleSize]. The
easiest way to switch fonts is to use \definefont or, if you are using the
simplefonts module, \definesimplefont. For example:
\usemodule[simpleslides]
\usemodule[simplefonts][size=\NormalSize]
\definesimplefont[SlideTitleFont][Dejavu Sans][size=\SlideTitleSize]

[NTG-context] two questions for the simplest slides
Hi there, I would like to create the simplest slides ever. I have done in LaTeX before, but I'm not sure how to do it with ConTeXt. All I want is to be able to center both vertically and horizontally whatever each slide contains and to change background and text colors in an easy manner (something like from now on background is red and text is white). Looking to http://tug.org/pracjourn/2006-2/schmitz/ and http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Presentations, I still have two questions. How can I get every single slide, no matter there is text or images, vertically centered? How can I change background and text colors after a \page? I mean something like: \setuppapersize[S6][S6] \setupcolors[state=start] \setuppagenumber[state=stop] \setupbackgrounds[page][background=color,backgroundcolor=red] \startcolor[white] \starttext Page is red and text is white. \page Page is blue and text is yellow. \page Page is green and text is white. \page Page is white and text is black. \page Page is red and text is white (again). \stoptext I mean, I know how to start, but I don't know how to change after the start. And it would be extremely helpful to change text colors with a switch (if that were possible), not within an environment (mainly because most slides will only contain one of two words).

Re: [NTG-context] two questions for the simplest slides
Hi Pablo,
for each defined colour there is a command that can be called to
switch. \centerbox centres the text vertically. It is not the most
elegant solution, but the following does what you asked for.
\setuppapersize
[S6] [S6]
\setuppagenumber
[state=stop]
\setupbackgrounds
[page] [background=color]
\define[1]\setpagecolor
{\setupbackgrounds[page][backgroundcolor=#1]}
\setupalign
[middle]
\starttext
\setpagecolor{blue}
\yellow
\centerbox{Page is blue and text is yellow.}
\stoptext

Sorry, Peter, I haven't expressed myself accurately.
\def\Slide#1#2#3 has a problem, namely, that I have to enter both
background and foreground colors for each single slide.
\definestartstop[sld][before={\page\startstandardmakeup\setupalign[middle]},after=\stopstandardmakeup]
makes easier to change colors only when I really need it.
