[NTG-context] a ghost in the columns ?

2010-11-05 Thread Steffen Wolfrum
Hi,

please have a look at the minimal below (tex+pdf):

We always have a kind of heading followed by a block of two columns.

But suddenly on page 6, entry Cassius Dio has a much larger vertical space 
above than Novellen for example!

Why? And how can this be avoided?


Any help very much appreciated!
Steffen (MkIV)

Ah, this was a bad example...
I have an other snippet from my original file, please see minimal (tex+pdf)

Here we have a bigger space before Gai epitome than before Gai 
institutiones.

Why is this one? How can this be avoided?

In this case it seems that columns believes (height-wise) that there are 
12 lines instead of the actual 11 in the block above. I don't understand 
why, though.

Wow: that columns believes  ;o)  is there a specialist for parapsychology out 
there? Hans?

The appendix from which these examples come from is quite big and there a 
dozens of situations like the one shown above: Suddenly there is a little bit 
more space above, sometimes more sometimes less. But there is no rule, no 
structure. 

I tried to throw in some vskip to adjust it manually ... but after 3 hours I 
gave up: you never get the right distance.


So is there a handy work around to get rid off that column's cranky believe?


Best,
Steffen

I have never had a whole lot of luck with \startcolumns ...
\stopcolumns. Normally I would suggest using \startsimplecolumns...
\stopsimplecolumns (in the case of columns, it seems 'simple' is
better), but you probably want page breaks inside?

You could try adding a \strut to each line (number). That may not
immediately produce the output you desire, but it will help make
the columns be more predictable.

[NTG-context] FiXme-module

2010-11-05 Thread Andreas Harder
Hi Wolfgang,

I've played a bit with your FiXme-module. First of all, thanks for the work! 
But I ran into following issues.

1. Something is going wrong if I allow interaction. So the text is marked as a 
link, but one can't jump to the right location.

2. Instead of margin notes I would like to use PDF annotations, so I tried:
\setupfixme
  [before={\startcomment[FiXme]},
   after=\stopcomment]
This gives an error.

3. Is it possible to save the FiXme-list in a external text file? Something 
like \savebuffer[expanded list of fixmes][list.txt]

\usemodule[fixme]

% \setupfixme % - error
%   [before={\startcomment[FiXme]},
%after=\stopcomment]

\setupinteraction[state=start]
\setuplist[fixme][interaction=all]

\starttext
\fixme{To be done …}
\input knuth
\fixme{To be done …}
\input tufte
\fixme{To be done …}
\page
\placelist[fixme]
\stoptext

Best regards
Andreas

columns are quite sensitive to rounding errors so anything that messes 
up a line height makes it a problem; some day I'll do it again (using a 
bit of lua)

Hi.

Consider the attached example. When compiled with mkii (texexec) I get
text in margin while if I compile the file with mkiv (context) I get
only text with nothing in margin.

I'm using context minimal:
$ context --version | grep version
MTXrun | current version: 2010.11.03 19:42

Did I miss something?


put this in cont-new.mkiv

\def\doflushmargincontents

(when cleaning up status variables something got lost)
