 you can load the eps graphic in ghostview, then hit the i-key.
 but i agree, that this method is a pain in the ???, if you have many
 graphics.

The following command often finds the right bounding box:

  gs -sDEVICE=bbox -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -q file.eps

 Hi Giuseppe,

 the location= of the inner frame as desired. Am I missing
 something obvious?

 I don't think so, this was an example from Hans:

 \framed[width=2cm,align=middle,location=hanging]{location\\equals\\hanging}
 \framed[width=2cm,align=middle,location=depth]  {location\\equals\\depth}
 \framed[width=2cm,align=middle,location=height] {location\\equals\\height}
 B}

[snip]

Yeah, this is what I was thinking too. But as Thomas pointed
out, top and bottom can be used to tune the internal
vertical alignment.

 PS: welcome back!

Thanks :)

Re: [NTG-context] Framing a linetable?

2007-07-28 Thread Giuseppe Bilotta
Tuesday, July 24, 2007 Hans Hagen wrote:

 Giuseppe Bilotta wrote:
 Hello all,
 
 is it possible to put a frame around a linetable?

 you mean the whole table?

 probably a matter of hooks; linetables work page-wise which may
 complicate things a bit so it has to be applied piecewise

I've been experimenting with this a little.

Putting the whole linetable inside a frame doesn't work
because of the \nointerlinelineskip in

\ifdim\topskipgap=\zeropoint\else¶
  \verticalstrut\nobreak\kern-\struttotal\kern-\parskip\nobreak\nointerlineskip 
% fix topskip¶
\fi¶

in \flushlinetableparts -- if I comment out this section of
the code, the table gets placed, but the frame is somewhat
short.

This is in fact a bug in linetables which I noticed before,
even though it didn't affect me until recently: if the last
line in a table is a \vtop (\linetablemode is 0) with more
than one line of text, the flattening of its depth in
\flushlinetableparts

\dp\tablebox\linetablepart\strutdepth

causes the text after the table to appear *in* the table
itself.

So I commented out the depth smashing, and the frame now has
the correct size.

There is one more thing missing, though, and it's the fact
that the table is typeset halfway to the right of the frame,
as if a large indentation was placed before each line. If I
manage to squeeze out this last bug, I can frame the table
automatically which will be a great advantage for me.

[NTG-context] Linetable height (actually, depth) bug

2007-07-28 Thread Giuseppe Bilotta
Hello all,

as I mentioned in the 'framing a linetable' thread, there is
a bug in the stable (march '07) version of ConTeXt
concerning the linetable *depth*.

Example file:

\setupcolors[state=start]

\starttext
\setuplinetable[r][2][height=30pt,background=color,backgroundcolor=blue]
\startlinetable
\BR \BC one \EC \BC two \EC \ER
\BR \BC three \EC \BC four \EC \ER
\stoplinetable
more text
\stoptext


more text will appear in the blue area of the second line,
instead of after the linetable, because the depth of the
table lines are smashed to be one strutdepth in
\flushlinetableparts

[NTG-context] Non-printing macro disturbs line justification.

2007-07-28 Thread John R. Culleton
I did a big project in Context and becuse I wanted to use the special 
features of eplain's interface to makeindex I wrote my own indexing 
macro. Every place I inserted a call to this macro extra space 
appeared at that point.  Here is my macro:

\def\sidx#1{\write\ind{\\indexentry{#1}{\the\pageno}}}

I had to retreat to the regular Context indexing tag.  Can someone 
spot the flaw in my definition?

This is a problem related to the new way with twopassdata.

You can solve it by changing one line in the definition of
\checkcurrentnofitems in core-itm.tex

\def\checkcurrentnofitems

   \iftwopassdatafound
 \ifcase\scratchcounter

   \let\currentmaxnofitems\!!zerocount

 ...rest of the macor}

[NTG-context] extra math symbols and alignment

2007-07-28 Thread w . neimeijer
Hello,

I am trying to extend the standard math collection with some symbols from
the Ralph Smith Formal font and some extra integral symbols from the txexa
font. I used the example from http://wiki.contextgarden.net/rsfs.

The problems I am having is
1) Some of the standard math symbols are overwritten as
shown by \showmathcharacters.
2) Alignment of left,right and middle is not working when I use matrices.

I really hope someone can help me.
Attached some test code.

Kind regards

Wim

Maybe ghostscript isn't installed?  What was the exact error?  On my
system (i386 laptop with Ubuntu GNU/Linux):

$ gs -h
GPL Ghostscript 8.54 (2006-05-17)

but most versions of ghostscript should work.
