[NTG-context] Weird behavior about metafun
Hi Hans and Wolfgang, I'm just trying to make some illustrations about the Chinese typesetting features. So I choose the way which is described in Chapter 5 of the metafun manual. And I wanna draw a line from the text I wanna comment on to the marginal notes which my comments lay on. To highlight them, I drew an underline below the contexts which is to be commented and put a square around the comments. Everything is under control except I put \fpos and \tpos around the comments, the framed box is not exactly what I want. It seems that metafun still thought it's in the main text so it drew the bounding around the body. I found the mpos:par was defined in core-pgr.tex and it used show_par or draw_par which are defined in mp-core.mp. I don't think it's a good way to define another MPpositiongraphic called like mpos:marginpar to match my case. Do you think it's possible to change some of the core codes to make metafun recognize where she is. -- Best Regards Chen Zhi-chu Chen | Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility No. 2019 | Jialuo Rd. | Jiading | Shanghai | P.R.

Oh, by the way, if I put \fpos at the beginning of a paragraph,
it adds an extra blank line. I have to force it to the
horizontal mode like:
\leavevmode\fpos{A-1} . . . \tpos{A-1}
\dontleavehmode \fpos ...
So is it safe to change the definition of \fpos to add
\leavevmode at the beginning of the macro?
no, that could happen in the macro that uses \fpos, not in \fpos itself

Cool, then I'll define my own macro to do that.

Hans, should contextnames.txt be deleted now? So that only one list
will be kept up to date.
well, we can keep it for a while for sentimental reasons
XeTeX offers \XeTeXglyphdindex{angleleft} (in LuaTeX you can achieve
the same with some coding), but I agree that some high-level macro to
access glyphs by name might be handy.
I know XeTeX offers this method but method for XeTeX and LuaTeX would
be better, it could be used as replacement for \symbol a many
cases, untill you have the requestet glyph in your font but a fallback
mode would be nice in this situation.
maybe a big fallback virtual font covering all of unicode ...
With Arial Unicode as fallback ;-)

Hello,
I often have problems with page breaks in ConTeXt (section titles are
often placed at the bottom of the page, but changing anything there
might lead to strange side-effects), but perhaps this specific problem
is solvable somehow:
\setuphead
[section]
[page=yes]
\setuphead
[subsection]
[page=yes]
\starttext
\section{a}
\input tufte
% I would expect a page break here without having to say \page
\subsection{b}

\stoptext
This is a feature in ConTeXt but you could disable it,
\setuphead[section,subsection][page=yes,continue=no]
