[NTG-context] Customizing chapter heads

2009-01-24 Thread Alfredo Catalina
I am new to ConTeXt. I am trying to define a customized head for chapters
but I am finding some problems. The sentences below are based on the chapter
Text Elements which may be found in the ConTeXt manual.

Prior to setting up the title, a new Head command is defined
by \def\HeadTitle#1#2%. It takes two arguments, the chapter number and the
chapter title. The Head so defined will show the word "C h a p t e r" in
capitals, then the chapter number at 80pt, then a horizontal line, and
finally the title.

The definition works quite well except that both, the chapter number and the
chapter title, are not show at the specified font size.

\definebodyfont[10pt,11pt,12pt][rm][tff=Regular at 80pt]
\definebodyfont[10pt,11pt,12pt][rm][tfe=Regular at 42pt]

\def\HeadTitle#1#2%
{\hbox to \hsize \bgroup
{\hfill %
\setupframed[height=7cm,offset=.5em,frame=off]
 \framed[width=9cm,align=left]
{
{\tfc \sc {C~h~a~p~t~e~r}} ~~ {\tff #1}\\
\hairline
{\ss \tfe #2}
}
}
\egroup
}
\starttext
\setuphead[chapter] [command=\HeadTitle]
\chapter{An Insight\\Into Fred's Design}
\stoptext

An easy workaround for the chapter number replaces the argument #1 by
\currentheadnumber

\def\HeadTitle#1#2%
{\hbox to \hsize \bgroup
{\hfill %
\setupframed[height=7cm,offset=.5em,frame=off]
 \framed[width=9cm,align=left]
{
{\tfc \sc {C~h~a~p~t~e~r}} ~~ {\tff #1}\\
\hairline
{\ss \tfe #2}
}
}
\egroup
}

Now the chapter number is shown at 80pt as defined. But I have not found the
way to solve the problem with the head title, #2. ¿Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
Alfredo.

In analogy to \framedtext after a define of a framedtext I expect  
that that you should use \CenteredText{...}

And indeed.

\defineframedtext[CenteredText][width=fit]
% This one fails!
\startalignment[center]
\dontleavehmode
\CenteredText{
\startlines

\stoplines}

[NTG-context] Centering a defined text frame

2009-01-24 Thread Bart C. Wise
I'm trying to have a centered text frame.  There are two examples in the code 
below.
1) This one works.  It uses a text frame that is in line in the code.
2) This one does not work! It's using a defined text frame and flushes the text 
frame to the left.  How do I fix this?

Thanks,
Bart

\defineframedtext[CenteredText][width=fit]

\starttext

% This one works!
\startalignment[center]
\dontleavehmode
\framedtext[width=fit]{
\startlines
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
\stoplines
}
\stopalignment

% This one fails!
\startalignment[center]
\dontleavehmode
\startCenteredText
\startlines
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
\stoplines
\stopCenteredText

Or, if not possible, underlined word groups with correct underline  
breaks for multi-line phrases.

[NTG-context] replacing words by underlines

2009-01-24 Thread Alan Stone
Hi,

In the underneath example, how do you get each word replaced by an underline
?

Or, if not possible, underlined word groups with correct underline breaks
for multi-line phrases.

\def\UnderlineA#1%
{\underbars{#1}}

\def\UnderlineB#1%
{\underbars{\phantom{#1}}}
%{\underbar{\phantom{#1}}}

\definetextbackground[underline][%
location=text,
alternative=1,
background=,
frame=off]

\def\UnderlineC{%
\groupedcommand
{\starttextbackground[underline]}
{\stoptextbackground}}

\starttext

Thus, I came to \UnderlineA{the conclusion} that the designer of a new
system \UnderlineA{must not only be the implementer and first} large--scale
user; the designer should also write the first user manual.

Thus, I came to \UnderlineB{the conclusion} that the designer of a new
system \UnderlineB{must not only be the implementer and first} large--scale
user; the designer should also write the first user manual.

Thus, I came to \UnderlineC{the conclusion} that the designer of a new
system \UnderlineC{must not only be the implementer and first} large--scale
user; the designer should also write the first user manual.

Alan

[NTG-context] Something usefull?

2009-01-24 Thread Cecil Westerhof
I made something usefull and share it with you. Maybe it is usefull
for other people also.

Sometimes I switch a lot from tasks. Still I need to keep a good log
of time spend on the different tasks. For this I made the first table.
When I switch I can now log easily the new task and the time of the
switch. And at the end of the day I can easily get a running total pro
task.

The second task is for writing down short notes. I used a table to get
lined A7 paper.

I have still some work to do on it. For example the tables are to
close to edge and the tables stop to soon. But I think it is good
enough to 'publish'.

I also have some questions. ;-}
At the moment there are the same number of the timesheet and the lined
paper printed. That is not always what you want I think. The one time
you need more timesheets, the other time you need more lined paper. Is
there a way to ask for the number of timesheets, print those, and let
the rest be printed as lined? (I can offcourse also switch to two
different documents.)
At the moment the lined paper starts counting from 9. Is there a way
to reset it to 1?

Re: [NTG-context] een soort multi-\not?

2009-01-24 Thread Wolfgang Schuster

Hi Liesbeth,

In math-mode krijg je een streep door een letter met behulp van  
\not. De streep gaat echter altijd maar door één letter. Ik wil  
bijvoorbeeld het getal 10 doorstrepen of het getal 100. Hoe kan ik  
dit het beste doen?


Please ask your questions in english, I don't know
what effect do you want but you can simulate the \not
effect with metapost.

\definetextbackground
  [strikethrough]
  [location=text,
   alternative=4,
   background=,
   frame=off]

\starttext
$ a = b + \strikethrough{100} + c $
