[NTG-context] combination
Hello, I searched the mailing archive but found nothing about my problem. I have 3 figures to put into combination 2*2. The way it is handle it that the third figure is place below the first one, which is quite logical. I'd rather have it centered in the second row. Is there any mean to do this ? I didn't find a clue anywhere. Thank you.

\startcombination[2*1]

The first appears to give a reasonable result,
but the second gives exactly the same as the first.
I do not believe that combinations can be recursive...

Re: [NTG-context] combination
Hi,
The solution works indeed. Thanks to all of you. There is a related
refinement I'd like but don't know Context enough to bring by myself:
\starttext
This is a combination of 3 figures on two lines
\placefigure{none}
{
\midaligned{
\startcombination[1*2]
{\startcombination[2*1]
{}{}
{}{}
\stopcombination}
{\externalfigure[cow.jpg][width=some width]}{some blabla}
\stopcombination
}
}
\stoptext
On the third figure: is there a mean to set the width of 'some blabla'
equal to the width of the figure.
Best regards,
Nicolas

This is not possible because ConTeXt use the \normalplacehead command by default (even for command=, as fallback) and this is where the align key is used, with your \myCommand this \normalplacehead is repleaced and the align key and many of the others are no longer used by ConTeXt. The best thing is to key that are used in higher level macros like style, color or \numbercommand and \textcommand because they act independent of the command key.

Re: [NTG-context] Page layout : Need help to begin
Hi Antoine,
do you have also questions on beginners level or has
everything to be on expert level.
I'm quite new to context and I'm not sure about the best way to
achieve
the layout I've in mind. You may find a representation of my layout
in the
attached PDF.
Can someone help me by giving some tips on how to proceed to achieve
such a result. What's the best technique? The best method?
It's hard to say what't the best method in your case is
because more information are needed. The first thing that
came to my mind was to reduce the text area to a narrow
column and place the extra text and the figures and a wide
left margin.
\setuplayout
[backspace=12.5cm,
width=6.7cm,
leftmargin=6.7cm,
leftmargindistance=4cm,
topspace=3.4cm,
header=.5cm,
headerdistance=2cm,
height=19.2cm]

Re: [NTG-context] installing fonts pdftex
this http://wiki.contextgarden.net/otfinst did it and it actually worked quite well, thanks a lot. it even took care of the dashes problem. do you know how to default to old style numerals the 'osf' doesn't seem to work, and i'm certain that the font supports it. and if you so happen to be the author, you've got a bug; if i chose Sans, it generates this typescript \definetypeface [sample][rm][serif][cronospro][default][encoding=texnansi] instead of \definetypeface [sample][ss][sans][cronospro][default][encoding=texnansi] Thomas A. Schmitz wrote: On Jan 27, 2009, at 12:28 AM, Mohamed Bana wrote: Hi Thomas, Hi, please address questions to the mailing-list, not to me personally. 1. when is the last time you tried to install a font manually using texfont? i've been trying to get install warnockpro and cronospro - both of which are .otf - but i've had no lack. texfont --makepath --install --fontroot=`pwd` --vendor=adobe --co=warnockpro --en=texnansi --lcdf --preproc --variant=liga,kern,smcp,onum the last time i checked texfont was generating an empty map file. texfont is really old, it predates opentype fonts, so you can't expect it to handle such fonts. It was a brave and wonderful effort to automate installation of fonts, but I gave up using it - not because texfont itself is bad, but because so many fonts are just faulty and/or idiosyncratic, and automatization just can't handle all these eceptions. I always had to double-check and edit files by hand, so I decided to go for a manual process. The --lcdf switch was added by Adam Lindsay, who also wrote a short article about otf and ConTeXt: http://www.tug.org/pracjourn/2005-2/lindsay/lindsay.pdf Too bad Adam isn't active anymore, he was a great help in ConTeXt development. If you search the mailing list archive for texfont lcdf, you will see that the problem with the empty map file is common and was never really solved, AFAIK. So you have several options: 1. install the fonts manually 2. use texfont and write the map file manually 3. try Patrick's otfinst http://wiki.contextgarden.net/otfinst 4. I have a set of support files for using Cronos and Warnock with pdftex; if you want, I can make a zip and send them to you (not before Thursday, however). the free version of lucida (.ttf) that ship with Java files worked fine 2. is there someone i must do to get to dashes working properly? as in, --- doesn't generate the right dash nor does --. These are defined as ligatures in the tfm/vf files. Doesn't texfont produce vpl-files as an intermediate format? You could open those and check whether the ligature is defined. It probably isn't, and then you have to hunt down the reason or add it manually...

Ok, so I was not so wrong. But my main concern is about
the background that has to take the full height and half width.
In addition, if the background may be larger than the page it
would nice in case of printing (so, no margin at all)
\setupcolors[state=start]
\defineoverlay
[graybar]
[{\blackrule
[color=middlegray,
height=\dimexpr\paperheight+1cm\relax,
width=\dimexpr\paperwidth/2+1cm]%
\hskip\dimexpr\paperwidth/2+1cm\relax}]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=graybar]
[rest of the document]
If you want the background on chapter pages etc. it makes sense
to integrate the background in a slightly different way but more
details about the layout needed for this to find the best solution.

Re: [NTG-context] Page layout : Need help to begin
Hi, Thanks for your help. Your solution works but I need more fine tuning on this background. If you want the background on chapter pages etc. it makes sense to integrate the background in a slightly different way but more details about the layout needed for this to find the best solution. So, I'll explain in more details the structure of my layout. The idea is that the pages are presented side-by-side. Visually we have 4 columns. - The last one (right, on the right page) is the main text. - The third column (left, on the right page) is used for the figures (images, graphs, diagrams, etc.) - The second column (right, on the left page) is used to discuss some points of the main text. Like advanced stuff, debate, historical notes, etc) - The first one (left, on the left page) have some light gray background and is an area for FAQ about the topic. The title of each double page is on the right page, aligned with the left column of the right page. The second column (right, on the left page) may have a title defining the topic of this column.

by the way, this used to be working in MKIV:
\definefontfeature[zh][mode=node, script=hang, lang=zhs]
\definefontsynonym[zhserif][AdobeSongStd-Light][features=zh]
\definefont[ChineseFont][zhserif at 12pt]
however, in experimental version, it will report zhserif not found.
So I can only write something like:

btw, I can use setfontfeature, how can I unset a font feature?
