Re: [NTG-context] vertical square root upstroke (instead of having a slant)

With the following minimal file on MkIV (2013.05.28 00:36 MKIV current),
the upstroke of the square root is vertical instead of having the usual
slant toward the right. With MkII it has the usual slant.
I see this problem only with certain arrangements of variables (that
recur often in my book chapter on springs and piano strings). For
example, it goes away after changing the \rho to a b.
\starttext
\startformula
\sqrt{Tb^2\over \rho}.
\stopformula
\stoptext
I know that the big math symbols are constructed differently in MkIV
and MkII. Does the example above show an intended difference?
a radical has a couple of increasing sizes (discrete steps, if they have
a slant depends of the font designer) before it switches to an
extensible that then normally has no slant
(in context one can hook in a mp variant that keeps the slant)
(if needed we can make it an option to omit steps and always use upright)

[NTG-context] line notes compress
Hi,
The linenote compression options (and control) has been upgraded:
\definepapersize
[mine]
[width=8cm,
height=6cm]
\setuplayout
[location=middle,
width=middle,
height=middle,
headerdistance=5mm]
\setuppapersize
[mine]
[oversized]
\definelinenote
[MyNote]
\setupnote
[MyNote]
[paragraph=yes]
\setupnotation
[MyNote]
[alternative=serried,
distance=.5em,
width=broad]
\setupalign
[verytolerant]
\showframe
\startbuffer
\setupfootertexts[\ttxx
compress=\namednoteparameter{MyNote}{compress}\quad
compressmethod=\namednoteparameter{MyNote}{compressmethod}]
\startlinenumbering
This\MyNote{That} context\MyNote{document} is\MyNote{was} a
sample\MyNote{an example} that I\MyNote{she} want\MyNote{didn’t
want} to show\MyNote{publish}
\stoplinenumbering
\page
\stopbuffer
\starttext
\setupnote[MyNote][compress=yes,compressmethod=stopper] \getbuffer
\setupnote[MyNote][compress=yes,compressmethod=separator] \getbuffer
\setupnote[MyNote][compress=yes,compressmethod=space] \getbuffer
\setupnote[MyNote][compress=yes,compressmethod=] \getbuffer
\setupnote[MyNote][compress=no,compressmethod=stopper]\getbuffer
\setupnote[MyNote][compress=no,compressmethod=separator] \getbuffer
\setupnote[MyNote][compress=no,compressmethod=space] \getbuffer
\setupnote[MyNote][compress=no,compressmethod=] \getbuffer
\stoptext
Keep in mind that paragraph notes are somewhat special so some tolerance
in alignment helps.

It seems that there is a mixup in the backend code for including an
attachment.
For example, when I use:
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\starttext
The current file is \attachment[tag][file=\jobname.tex, name=test.tex,
title={Whatever}]
\stoptext
I was expecting that the current file will be attached as test.tex and
title Whatever. However, the title of the attached file is tag.
See the attached screenshot from Adobe Reader.
It seems that in the back end, tag is written to the PDF file where
title should have been written.
we can do this (line 308 of lpdf-wid)
if author == and title ~= then
author = title
title = filename or
end
but you can also add an author field to the specification as what shows
up in the pdf is partly the side effect of fallbacks for missing fields
(and ... it's one of these pdf features that is unreliable anyway as
it's viewer dependent .. read: specs before implementations and then
acrobat behavior defining what will happen; the whole 'associate
rendering with some annotation mechanism is fragile as depending on the
version of acrobat it works this or that way, probably because no
application uses plugged-in rendering, it's the same with form fields
... a depressing mess)

this is not the same question as handling orphan and widows - because
you surely do not want some titles with only 2-3 lines of body text
after them.
I always use \testpage[x] to handle those issues, see your example
with testpage:
\setuphead[section][before={\testpage[8]\blank}]
Thanks, it works! Another magic command not documented anywhere in the
ConTeXt Guide or Wiki...
I was looking for any alternative for XSL-FO's keep-with-next=always. This
is a different approach, but it doesn't matter.
Btw, I still don't understand why keeping the title and text behaves
differently when grid is on...

Keep in mind that paragraph notes are somewhat special so some tolerance in alignment helps. This is not directly related to linenotes, but to paragraph notes. There are some cases a note starts in the next page to body text it refers to. With the following scenario (I have seen this): poetry with verses numbered to the page, two apparatus (critical and similar) and the first linenote on at least one apparatus comes from the previous page (so numbers in this apparatus go from 30 to 2). Is \setupnote[linenote][split=verystrict,scope=page] a reliable method to avoid this? I mean, if you have to typeset a critical edition of the Illiad or the Odyssey, you cannot check every single page looking for displaced linenotes.

So have you added it yet? I plan to update some pages in near future, but rather in form of examples of use. It is hard to describe commands without knowing what exactly they do, in which versions they are supported (I work in most recent MkIV which is not the case of everybody), whether they are perspective/deprecated or if there are any limitations when they are used. Nowadays most of API/command references are generated automatically directly from the source code comments. It ensures up to date data, but it helps also to programmers. Descriptive comments in the source helps to understand the given code when editing older parts. I do not know to what extent it could be implemented here, but the respective person could give it a try.
