Maybe we should also merge rboxes.mp with mp-xbox.* It is almost the same code 
as boxes.mp.

Yes, we felt that it was more consistent with other align mechanisms to default 
to math. So, for the 2nd column, we now have \NC for a "normal" (i.e., math) 
column and \TC for a text column. So you can use:

\startformula
\delta_{ij} =
\startcases  
\NC 1 \TC if $i = j$ \NR
\NC 0 \TC otherwise \NR
\stopcases 
\stopformula   
\stoptext

[NTG-context] Math cases

2021-07-22 Thread Jack Hill 

Dear list,

I'm using ConTeXt version 2021.07.22 19:16 and the following code 
typesets both columns in math mode


\starttext
\startformula
\delta_{ij} =
\startcases
\NC 1 \NC if i = j \NR
\NC 0 \NC otherwise \NR
\stopcases
\stopformula
\stoptext

The wiki states that the second column should be typeset in text mode. 
Is this a bug or does ConTeXt now typeset the second column in math mode 
by default?


Thanks,
Jack

Re: [NTG-context] Metapost Animation of Sine

2021-07-22 Thread Otared Kavian 
Hi Jeroen,

Unfortunately I am not familiar with Tikz, since all my documents use what is 
built-in ConTeXt and Metapost…
That being said I am sure someone on the list can help you with Tikz module.

Re: [NTG-context] another MetaPost question (this time on ConTeXt->MetaPost color transfer)

2021-07-22 Thread Rudd, Kevin 
... fixed minor typo that actually produced new information! invalid color => 
black, valid color => transparent black!---it seems like the color disappears 
in the transfer but not the transparency.

Hey---

There seems to be a change with color transfer from ConTeXt to MetaPost. Using 
string references to defined (spot?) colors seemed to work but now does not; 
all of my colorful figures are now rendered only in shades of gray when using 
defined (spot?) colors….

The figure drawn by the MWE should have a dark orange border and a transparent 
(thin) orange fill. However, all colors of this sort seem to end up being a 
single shade of gray (e.g. black), rendering a box perfect for Halloween use 
but not for my current purposes. Is there a change to how colors defined in 
ConTeXt are referenced in MetaPost that I've missed or is there an issue with 
transferring color (name or parameter) information to MetaPost? Defined (spot?) 
colors work fine in ConTeXt but not in MetaPost.

Many thanks,

Thanks for the suggestion.

I've already tried columnsets. With or without grid=yes, with or without a
columnspan, using columnsets produces the following log even though the
table fits on one page.

Re: [NTG-context] How to place text before a table inside a column environment

2021-07-22 Thread Henning Hraban Ramm 
Hi Michael,

you could try columnsets and use a columnsetspan for the text above the columns.

I don’t know if tables work well within a columnset, though.

[NTG-context] How to place text before a table inside a column environment

2021-07-22 Thread Michael Guravage 
I have created a table and placed it inside a columns environment; which
works as advertised. However, if I place any text before the column
environment, the columns break. More clearly stated, only one column
appears on the first table page; whereas two columns resume on subsequent
pages. I have attached a mwe where you can use --mode=title to invoke the
broken columns.

Any advice on how to place text above the columns environment would be
gratefully received.

With kind regards,

Michael

[NTG-context] Getting the local float reference within a float and reuse (?) it later (\somelocalfloat?)

2021-07-22 Thread Benjamin Buchmuller 
Hi, 

Is there a more convenient way to get the current reference label (stably) from 
within a float? For example, I would like to make an "image credits" section at 
the end of a document, so I do something similar to:

\defineblock[credits]

\starttext

\section[sec:topic]{Topic}

\startplacefigure
[
title={Awesome figure. Image credits in \about[sec:credits].},
reference=fig:awesome,
]

\begincredits
\in{Figure}[fig:awesome] in \in{Section}[sec:topic] was not created by me.
\endcredits
\stopplacefigure

\section[sec:credits]{Appendix}

\useblocks[credits]

\stoptext

The block mechanism comes in really handy here, especially since I have more to 
show at the end than just the credits. However, each time I add another figure, 
I have to replace the references appropriately. So, I was wondering how about 
exploiting some pointers:

\begincredits
\somelocalfloat[figure][current] in Section \someheadnumber[section][current] 
was not created by me.
\endcredits
\processblocks[credits] % expected \someheadnumber to evaluate to 1?
\stopplacefigure

Yet, even if asked to be processed within the first section, \someheadnumber 
evaluates at the end to "2" (should be "1" in my opinion)? This is independent 
of calling it from within the float or the main text. I guess, my understanding 
of "processblocks" is wrong in this respect.

% \begincredits
% This is the call from the text \someheadnumber[section][current]
% \endcredits
%
% \processblocks[credits]

Further, \somelocalfloat doesn't show anything. What does it do?

Two probably not really urgent questions as I can live with putting the 
explicit names, but maybe there is an even better approach that comes in handy 
in more circumstances.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Nicola,

Thanks. This solves the indentation of the initial itself. What remains is the 
indentation of the text immediately after, e.g. the 'uppose we’. Minimum 
example (also visible in your example):


% This combination of indenting and initial does not work properly, the text 
following the initial should be unindented
\definemeasure[CAindent][12pt]
\setupindenting[yes,\measure{CAindent}]
% Every chapter body text starts with a drop cap:

\defineinitial[normal][n=3,m=1,hoffset=\measure{CAindent},state=start]

\starttext
\setinitial[normal] S {\bf{\kap uppose we}} have a system for the approval of
loans. \input knuth
\stoptext


The ‘uppose we’ should not be indented more than the lines directly below. I’ve 
tried everything, e.g. trying some sort of noindent
 but so far without success. Setting indenting to ‘next', for instance, 
increases the indenting of that first line after the initial.

I’ve found the solution, though:


\definemeasure[CAindent][12pt]
\setupindenting[yes,\measure{CAindent}]
\setupinitial[n=3,m=1]

\starttext
\setupindenting[next]
\placeinitial S
