[NTG-context] Code Called Twice?
Hi,
I noticed something unexpected with the following code:
\enabletrackers[metapost.showlog]
\startuseMPgraphic{heading:ThemeTitleStyle}
show HEADING:THEMETITLESTYLE;
show \MPstring{heading:title};
draw textext( \MPstring{heading:title} ) rotated 5
withcolor blue;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\defineframed[ThemeTitleStyle][
background=\useMPgraphic{ThemeTitleStyle},
]
\def\processword#1{%
\setMPtext{heading:title}{#1}%
\useMPgraphic{heading:ThemeTitleStyle}
}
\define[1]\ThemeChapterTitle{\applytosplitstringword\processword{#1}}
\setuphead[chapter][deeptextcommand={\ThemeChapterTitle}]
\starttext
\startchapter[title=Why Is heading:ThemeTitleStyle Called Twice?]
\input knuth
\stopchapter
\stoptext
It appears as though heading:ThemeTitleStyle is being called twice:
metapost info:
HEADING:THEMETITLESTYLE
Why
metapost info:
HEADING:THEMETITLESTYLE
Why
I am trying to produce a random number that is not equal to the
previous random number. However, if the code is called twice, then I'd
have to add code to ignore one of the calls.
Any ideas why the code seems to be called twice and what can be done
to ensure that it is only called once?
Thank you!

[NTG-context] Problem with \overrightarrow over BC and CB
Dear all,
with the latest beta (and older ones), the following file
%%% start test file
\definefontfamily [mainface] [serif] [DejaVu Serif]
\definefontfamily [mainface] [sans] [DejaVu Sans]
\definefontfamily [mainface] [mono] [DejaVu Sans Mono] [feature=none]
\definefontfamily [mainface] [math] [TeX Gyre Pagella Math][scale=1.12]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
\starttext
$
\overrightarrow{AB}
\overrightarrow{BA}
\overrightarrow{AC}
\overrightarrow{CA}
\overrightarrow{AD}
\overrightarrow{DA}
\overrightarrow{BC}
\overrightarrow{CB}
\overrightarrow{BD}
\overrightarrow{DB}
\overrightarrow{CD}
\overrightarrow{DC}
$
\stoptext
%%% end test file
gives a shorter arrow than expected above BC and CB (but over the other
ones it is OK).
Is this a bug in the Pagella math font (it looks OK if one comments out the
\setupbodyfont[mainface] above)?
Can it be fixed?
Best regards, Mikael

I can reproduce it now. Funnily it works on my regular installation
(same version). When I run it on a clean minimal installation I get
the same error. No clue what's going on and I don't have much time
to check at the moment.

Perhaps anyone could see us with this minimal example.
Does anyone?

Hi,
I just tested the below MWE!
It worked with the latest beta MKIV (--modules=all), an three day old beta, and
with the TeXLive 2013 (MacTeX)
No errors. Running via TeXShop on a Mac OS 10.85
I can only assume that something is wrong with your set-up! maybe a path
problem and the wrong TiKZ is being loaded.

Don’t use text ;-) That’s a known issue: as soon as your Metapost
code contains text, it will be processed twice. E.g.:
\starttext
\setMPtext{heading:title}{foo}
\startMPcode
show This gets printed twice.;
draw textext( \MPstring{heading:title} );
\stopMPcode
\stoptext
Same for labels, {b,e}tex. See also this thread:

If I'm not mistaken that's the way MP works when text is involved,
it's a two-pass approach. In graphics without text MP has all
information it needs to create the image. The text in MP graphics is
typeset using TeX. After it's typeset MP picks it up in a second

Re: [NTG-context] Bug: Reloading Font
FYI, I didn't know that the font was corrupt. I have over 400 fonts on my machine, and had to reload to pick up the new ones. You'll find that having a large number of fonts will start to become a common situation as more fonts become public (e.g., Google's Free Web Fonts project). This increases the chances that some of those fonts will be corrupt. It is a low priority, but a corrupt font should not cause a program to hang or crash. The software should exit gracefully, and perhaps strongly suggest to standard error that the user investigate that particular font file. For my particular application, eventually I will allow users to upload custom fonts. If they upload a font that is corrupt (accidentally or intentionally), a run-away process would make for a rainy day.

That’s handy! I added a section on dealing with multi-pass to the

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Unexpected_behavior#Multipass
There is a subsection about MP at the end.
Btw. the behavior of mfun_trial_run is not very intuitive. I’d
expect it to work like \iftrialtypesetting, but in a single-pass
context it evaluates to true:
\enabletrackers[metapost.showlog]
\starttext
\startMPcode
if mfun_trial_run :
show This should be printed during the trial pass.;
else :
show This should be printed during the final pass.;
fi;
fill unitcircle scaled 1cm withcolor blue;
%label (btex Some label text etex, (0,0));

Uncommenting the label yields two passes, as expected.

Most other copies, I'd imagine, are fine, so don't be too quick to blacklist it. indeed, and when you don't notice that it's blacklisted, it can happen that this one instance gets unnoticed does not yet have blacklisting functionality (it’s marked as todo in the source) so you’re going to have to filter out bad files from your font directories by hand. Sounds like the real solution is to fix fontforge so that it doesn't hang. sure, although a crash has the nice advantage of knowing that a font (collection) is crap (which i then can blacklist permanently in my mind) Sure, but there’s a difference between a crash and a freeze. The latter can be quite annoying for those who work with strange editors that run TeX somewhere in the background making it impossible to kill the process using Ctrl-C. it depends what causes the freeze, for instance if there is a circular reference someplace, then that is hard to catch unless one uses timeouts which in themselves are tricky (not much different from browsers locking up on some javascript); keep in mind that we load a whole font, while other applications might do a partial load and never see the problematic data (maybe even ignore portions of the font) Hans - 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 ___
Re: [NTG-context] [***SPAM***] itemization
Good idea. It has documented spacing controls. I'll give it a try.

Re: [NTG-context] Bug: Reloading Font
Hi, sure, but fonts should be chosen with care .. and illegal ripoffs should be avoided (those cd's with hundreds of fonts, nowadays sites) See: https://github.com/w0ng/googlefontdirectory (quality of design / digitization, completeness of coverage, correctness of features ... much can be wrong) See also: http://hellohappy.org/beautiful-web-type/ In that case I'd run a separate font checker, as you never know what users upload. Similar issues can occur with those tagged formats that are in fact linked lists. That's a good idea. The TTX font tool was going to be my first stop. http://sourceforge.net/projects/fonttools/ sure, although a crash has the nice advantage of knowing that a font (collection) is crap (which i then can blacklist permanently in my mind) A crash, from a practical point of view, is much easier to deal with than a runaway CPU, which is altogether nasty. (On older systems, if you have only one or two CPUs, it can quite quickly take down a system.)
