[NTG-context] long caption in 2-page spread
The following excellent solution (see below) to a 2-page spread of an
image was given me by Hans (I had been completely unaware of the command
\startspread. It appears to be recent and undocumented, but it certainly
simplifies matters).
But in my case the title is a lengthy sentence, rather than the 4-word
'This is a cow'. And even though I have been able to split the line,
e.g. title={this is my very, very, very,\\ very etc. etc. long title},
what happens is that part of the caption still appears on the right-hand
page of the spread.
Is there a way that I can limit the appearance of the caption to just
one (the left-hand) page? In other words, so the figure is spread but
not the caption? Or alternatively, have the caption neatly split across
the two pages with appropriate space inbetween? I tried various
combinations, including an \hfill halfway through the title, but to no
avail. Perhaps this is asking too much, but there may be a workaround.

Re: [NTG-context] Vertical lines in matrices
Hi Aditya,
Ideally I would like to be able to typeset blocks in block matrices visually
separated, as for instance is done in
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/23853/specific-blockmatrices/23857
My current solution for just vertical lines below has the drawback that it uses
the standard delimiter \vert for the vertical line(s),
which is too thick for my taste.
Thanks,
Matthias

I don’t know how to use typescripts and the approach I suggested is the
only one I know to deal with fonts in ConTeXt.
\definefontfamily (and \definefallbackfamily) were created to avoid
using typescripts in the vast majority of cases.

They are just an option. The tilde (~) is added after the percent sign
(%), because “Geany” (the text editor I use) adds it after the comment
sign in different programming languages. It has no special meaning.

Now I get it: a fallback typeface for Russian and the main typeface as
Optima.
This might read the following way:
\setuplanguage[en][patterns={en, ru}]
\definefallbackfamily
[mainface]
[rm]
[Helvetica]
[preset=range:cyrillic,
force=yes,
rscale=0.9]
\definefontfamily [mainface] [rm] [Optima]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
The first command loads both English and Russian hyphenation patterns in
English, so that you don’t have to bother to mark the texts that use the
Cyrillic alphabet (although all hyphenation of Cyrillic will be
according the Russian rules).
The second command defines the fallback family. It has four option groups.
1. The first group sets up the name to be used in ConTeXt (mainly in
\setupbodyfont and \switchtobodyfont).
2. The second group specifies which kind of typeface is: serif,
sans-serif, typewriter, math and others. Of course, this isn’t a
declaration of what kind of font the selected one is, but how ConTeXt
will handle it. So, if your document is sans-serif only, it is safe to
use "[rm]" with sans-serif fonts as above.
3. The third group specifies the font name as specified in your OS. This
selects it.
4. The fourth group specifies different options. Here for the fallback
font, I specify:
a. Range: for which Unicode blocks (alphabets) will the font be used.
You can use "range=cyrillic", but it is safer to use
"preset=range:cyrillic" (this avoids specifying
"range={cyrillicextendeda, cyrillicextendedb,
cyrillicsupplement}").
b. Force: it is important to set it up to "yes", since otherwise if the
main font (Optima in this case) has any glyph for the Cyrillic block, it
would use that glyph in Optima, mixing it with the other ones from the
fallback font. In my personal experience, this looks crappy.
c. Relative scale to the main font: increase or decrease the fallback
font to match similar x-height with the main font. In this case,
Helvetica has a higher x-height that Optima, so I decreased it.
All the previous options where related to \definefallbackfamily.
\definefontfamily has also three option groups, which are the same that
the ones explained for \definefallbackfamily.
The values for the first and second groups should be the same, values
for the third group should differ. Otherwise, glyph substition won’t
take place (either the font family or typeface won’t match, or the
fallback font won’t be actually a different one).
> I still am totally in the dark how this works and what made the
> earlier setup find Optima but not find Helvetica.
I hope it is clear now: the fallback mechanism for your setup should
read different than the one I provided.
I think it could be better for you to use \definefallbackfamily and
\definefontfamily. It is way simpler.
> And I’m curious why this adaptation doesn’t work:
>
> \definefallbackfamily
>[abc]
>[ss]
>[dejavu]
As explained above, the third option group should contain the font name
(as your OS would display it, not as ConTeXt names it [probably, in a
typescript]). So, the value should read "[DejaVu Sans]".
> Anyway, I can go on, not wiser but helped further. Thanks again.
Please, ask what you don’t understand. And if you need help with your
font code, post it on the list and we may help you.
Sorry if the message contains errors (it’s too late for me to write on
these topics).

Re: [NTG-context] Blank page added after pagecolumns
After continuing to look into this a bit, I noticed that a similar issue
involving the insertion of a blank page after a columnset environment has
been discussed on the mailing list in the thread "Blank page inserted when
text reaches column's end" (dated 08 Dec 2019). In that thread, a proposed
solution was to redefine the \page_grd_stop macro found in page-cst.mkiv as
follows:
```
\unprotect
\def\page_grd_stop{%
\endgraf % needed, else wrong vsize in one par case
\vfill % otherwise weird \placenotes[endnotes]
\page_grd_command_set_vsize % needed
\penalty\c_page_otr_eject_penalty
%\page_grd_command_flush_page
\page_otr_fill_and_eject_page
\page_grd_command_set_vsize % why here
\egroup
\page_otr_command_set_vsize
\page_otr_command_set_hsize
}
\protect
```
Unfortunately, this approach was found to have potential issues in that
thread, and it does not fix the problem with pagecolumns in my MWE. Are
pagecolumns commands aliased to pagegrid commands like columnset commands
are, or are they defined somewhere else? I checked page-col.mkiv, but it
seems to be too short to be the file that defines pagecolumns behavior.

In the second example, the "3" is shifted manually by adding "~" and
the final placement seems to me a bit better.
What is your opinion - is the case (1) OK/intended and user should
avoid any manual shifting?
Or manual shifting is OK? Or is there a way to affect this placement
globally in ConTeXt, e.g. setting an internal variable?
If we can come up with a proper name for a parameter we can make it a
setting. One of these things that Aditya and I will to discuss when we
have time and are in math mood. (There is much more in math we could
control if needed, but often in the end that control is not that much
needed at all.)
As an example, see this question about customized square root signed
which was asked on TeX.SE a few years ago:
https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/406680/323
I tried the code from the link above, but:
- I had change some macro names: \mpvar -> \MPvar, \startuniquempgraphic
-> \startuniqueMPgraphic and some others,
- there is still an error I'm not able to fix (see attachements).
I'll look into that..
Maybe your code is intented for Ctx LMTX, whilst I'm still working with
Ctx MkIV (which uses Lua 5.3; AFAIK, Lua 5.4 exists just in RC
versions).
No. This feature works with MkIV as well. I posted that code in 2017, much
before LTMX was released. The feature is much older than 2017, IIRC. Similar
interfaces exist for delimiters, accents, and other artifact.

The above works (including using macOS Helvetica as the font for cyrillic).
Thank you.
I have no idea why (earlier I got the typescript suggestion for my fonts
management, but this uses another approach). Is it the case that the ‘family’
and ’typescript’ approaches don’t really mix? The above is a lot simpler than
that what I had and it works fine.
Any reason to leave these commented? And does uncommenting is plan
TeX-uncommenting, so only the % goes away? Makes me wonder what ‘~’ means.

What I try to do is to have english as the default (and fallback) language and
Optima as the default font, but there may be snippets in other languages which
should be typeset in a font that can handle cyrillic. Helvetica is an option.
So is dejavu.
I still am totally in the dark how this works and what made the earlier setup
find Optima but not find Helvetica.
And I’m curious why this adaptation doesn’t work:
\definefallbackfamily
[abc]
[ss]
[dejavu]
[preset=range:cyrillic,
%~ tf=style:light,
%~ it=style:lightoblique,
%~ bf=style:regular,
%~ bi=style:oblique,
force=yes,
rscale=0.9]
Anyway, I can go on, not wiser but helped further. Thanks again.

The placement is driven by the font so kind of part of the design.
There is a whole bunch of parameters that drives placement and there
is one that deals with the spacing after the degree. Here are some
examples.
\starttext
\def\R {\Umathradicaldegreeafter\textstyle0pt}
\def\RR{\Umathradicaldegreeafter\textstyle\dimexpr
\Umathradicaldegreeafter\textstyle+.1em\relax}
\def\RRR{\frozen\Umathradicaldegreeafter\textstyle\dimexpr
\Umathradicaldegreeafter\textstyle+.2em\relax}
$\sqrt[3]{5} \RR\sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} $\par
$\sqrt[3]{5} {\RRR\sqrt[3]{5}} \sqrt[3]{5} $\par
$ \RR\sqrt[3]{5} {\RRR\sqrt[3]{5}} \sqrt[3]{5} $\par
{\R $\sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} $\par
{\RR $\sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} $\par
{\RRR$\sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} $\par
\stoptext
Changing these parameters inside math is kind of pseudo global: the
value at the end of the first pass is used for the whole formula.
However, in lmtx you can cheat by using the \frozen prefix to make it
behave local.
If we can come up with a proper name for a parameter we can make it a
setting. One of these things that Aditya and I will to discuss when we
have time and are in math mood. (There is much more in math we could
control if needed, but often in the end that control is not that much
needed at all.)
this helps me, thank you.

I was aware of this. While there is no solution that adds vertical lines into
matrices, one can juxtapose two (or more) of them with
properly chosen delimiters, like so:

\definemathmatrix
[rbmatrix]
[left={\left.\,},right={\,\right)}]

Sorry for not explaining it better, Gerben.
Let me know if the following sample works for you:
\setuplanguage[en][patterns={en, ru}]
\definefallbackfamily
[abc]
[ss]
[Helvetica]
[preset=range:cyrillic,
%~ tf=style:light,
%~ it=style:lightoblique,
%~ bf=style:regular,
%~ bi=style:oblique,
force=yes,
rscale=0.9]
\definefontfamily [abc] [ss] [Optima]
\setupbodyfont[abc]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1em]
\doloopoverlist{\tf, \it, \bf, \bi}{
\recursestring\hyphenatedword{Николаевич typography}\par}
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
It should hyphenate both English and Russian in all four fonts (regular,
italic, bold and bold italic).
> Which is weird because Optima.ttc is in the same directory and it is found.
Aren’t Optima.ttc and Helvetica.ttc installed as typefaces on your macOS?
This is relevant, since ConTeXt may have problems finding them when not
installed on the system (especially with the system I use).
If the sample above doesn’t work, please provide the output of "locate
Helvetica.ttc".

If the sample above works, I think font management for your documents
may be easier to handle (or at least, the font code will be simpler).
Don’t loose sleep when code is not working, ask here instead. I must
admit that not having access to a macOS computer (I needed the help of a
friend to test) makes everything a bit harder. But it isn’t impossible.
BTW, I use "preset=range:cyrillic" instead of "range=cyrillic", since it
includes cyrillic, cyrillicextendeda, cyrillicextendedb and
cyrillicsupplement.
I hope the sample above helps now,
Pablo

When I adapt the parameters that create parpath in my code, other uses
of lmt_followtext crash. The same combinations of text and path so far
haven’t crashed basic followtext().
I’ve run into comparable situations in my own code where I had to add
code to handle the existence of a (0,0) direction (e.g. when I had two
identical points on a path, but that is not the case here). The above
minimal example triggers the failure.
we can patch this
if ad <> origin : rotated(angle(ad)) fi
in mp-blob.mpiv but I expect you to test if all still works then

Re: [NTG-context] Placing number in \sqrt
On 5/4/2020 8:47 AM, cont...@vivaldi.net wrote:
Hello,
compare placing "3" in the following examples:
\starttext
$\sqrt[3]{5}$ % (1)
\par
$\sqrt[3~]{5}$ % (2)
\stoptext
In the first case, the "3" is placed naturally by ConTeXt and placed
more in the centre of "V" part of the square sign.
In the second example, the "3" is shifted manually by adding "~" and the
final placement seems to me a bit better.
What is your opinion - is the case (1) OK/intended and user should avoid
any manual shifting?
Or manual shifting is OK? Or is there a way to affect this placement
globally in ConTeXt, e.g. setting an internal variable?
The placement is driven by the font so kind of part of the design. There
is a whole bunch of parameters that drives placement and there is one
that deals with the spacing after the degree. Here are some examples.
\starttext
\def\R {\Umathradicaldegreeafter\textstyle0pt}
\def\RR{\Umathradicaldegreeafter\textstyle\dimexpr
\Umathradicaldegreeafter\textstyle+.1em\relax}
\def\RRR{\frozen\Umathradicaldegreeafter\textstyle\dimexpr
\Umathradicaldegreeafter\textstyle+.2em\relax}
$\sqrt[3]{5} \RR\sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} $\par
$\sqrt[3]{5} {\RRR\sqrt[3]{5}} \sqrt[3]{5} $\par
$ \RR\sqrt[3]{5} {\RRR\sqrt[3]{5}} \sqrt[3]{5} $\par
{\R $\sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} $\par
{\RR $\sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} $\par
{\RRR$\sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} \sqrt[3]{5} $\par
\stoptext
Changing these parameters inside math is kind of pseudo global: the
value at the end of the first pass is used for the whole formula.
However, in lmtx you can cheat by using the \frozen prefix to make it
behave local.
If we can come up with a proper name for a parameter we can make it a
setting. One of these things that Aditya and I will to discuss when we
have time and are in math mood. (There is much more in math we could
control if needed, but often in the end that control is not that much
needed at all.)
