Don't know if this matters! But the temporary created pdf (input for 
pstoedit) is a bit smaller then the string to render '123'. The 
overshut of the round charakters '2' and '3' is cut.

[NTG-context] \startalignment[middle] and \externalfigure

2007-07-23 Thread Peter Münster
Hello,

\startalignment[middle] has no effect with \externalfigure[].
\dontleavehmode seems to be a work-around.

Is this normal behaviour or a bug?

Example:

\starttext
\startalignment[middle]
% \dontleavehmode % work-around
  \externalfigure[hacker]
\stopalignment
\stoptext

Cheers, Peter

Many thanks Hans. Works like a charm (dirty trick, but clean cut).

Probably not, it's only an optional parameter. You have also [last],
[first], ... etc., but [current] is (most probably) the default one.

I tested with 2007.04.17, 2007.01.12 and 2007.07.03, but result is the
same: Chapter title only appears on the first page and never again. If
you replace chapter by section, it works OK.

hmm,
\frame can be slow.
Maybe something like \vbox to4cm{\hsize=5cm ..} ?
