Re: [NTG-context] Re: howto overlayers on section head
thanks again for the summary.
hope this back and forth will not be just a waste, but something out of
which we can both/all learned to improuve.

This is partly high level ConTeXt (\framed, background) and low level
TeX (hfill,...).
"partially high and low"... Here laid my question not easy to untungle
for a beginner (and believe me I have read the docs, although I do not
claim to remember or understand all)
Summary: define a metapost graphic, use \defineoverlay to access
the mp graphic and use \framed{} to access the overlay
(background=...) and use \setuphead (command=somecommand) to define
your own command that acesses the \framed[background=...].
"define your own command" , but you have to know THE (default) command
fist, otherwise it is hard to obtain a result (.pdf) from something that
is not just a copy of someonelse .tex
let me start basic, ex-1
\starttext
\chapter{ciao}
\stoptext
let me remove \framed from your command, ex-2
\def\HeadTitle#1#2{\hbox to \hsize%
{\hfil%
{#1#2}\hfil}}
\setuphead [chapter]
[command=\HeadTitle]
\starttext
\chapter{ciao}
\stoptext
the two ex-s are not the same , because spacing between the number and
the title and allignment, why?
Moving your howto overlay example, indeed very useful, from subject to
chapter seems to me more subtle than just changing section names

and down to the last item and take a look at
http://levana.de/emacs/refcard/emacs.pdf
The sources are avialable there.
I have made some MP graphic around the section heading.
Thanks a lot. I think I start to grasp.
I have experimented with some other graphics but if I use "chapter"
instead of "subject" as section heading the result is different.
I believe it depends on your
\def\HeadTitle#1#2{\hbox to \hsize%
{\hfil%
\framed[frame=off,
background=myhead,
offset=overlay,
align=middle]{#1#2}\hfil}}
tighted to the latter heading and not to the former .
Am I right?
Deeply down to low level TeX at this point?
Is just a question to redefine a command adding
background=something-of-mine ?
Then where these command are discribed?

[NTG-context] howto overlayers on section head
I would like to start to experiment some metafun "decoration around(over)" section head and/or page number. Something similar, just for example but I do not want to copy the style, to the one used to produce the metafun manual. From the (small "scale") drawing primitives to the (large "scale") \setuphead I miss an howto that combine the two (specifically I was thinking at a (non-existent) background keyword in \setup to pass an overlay...but likely I am far off) I don't want to be lazy, maybe it is already written in the manuals, but I still miss a certain kick so to say...

\setlayerframed[preset=lefttop][offset=1cm,align=normal]{the content}
my first asking was: "offset"? where did it get it?
then in texshow-web (altough rather empthy) I found \setupframed
but still I have hard time to grasp the picture globally, and I do wish
to be more independent. So sorry
However,anyhow.. I put it, but it has no effect
I use contex from tetex from SuSe 9.1, should I move to TeXlive+pragma?
Or is just something relate to my .tex file?
the best appoach is to typeset the doc and poster indepently, see
attached file
it's far from perfect but it shows the idea; now, if you (and maybe
others) can cook up specs of what you want, i can make a series of
s-pos-*.tex files that you can then built upon; a kind of on-line
tutorial in style writing; when done, you can write a myway document an
article for the maps -)
not sure if I am ready to understand all but I'll be working on..
on what I consider a rather more advanced approch respect to my
experience than your previous poster template with which I have been
almost able to reproduce (with better typo and easy composition) a
previous openoffice work..

[NTG-context] on posters, again
Still struggling to get a poster with Context. Somehow I am puzzling why almost all my collegue who are accustumed to write with latex+revtex for chem-math-phys journals then turn to powerpoint to produce poster and/or presentation, although "ConTeXt is the layout oriented alternative to the well known LaTeX." and switching tex macro should be easy. I feel there is a lacking in information and/or guide that preclude its use within this comunity. Anyhow my question: Can I have text within a (settable) margin in \setlayerframe? Probably not since margin are defined in \setuplayout and having a page layout atop of another one may not make sense Hereis a latex example of what should be easier (and more durable and flexible) to accomplish with contex http://andreas.welcomes-you.com/projects/a0poster/ http://andreas.welcomes-you.com/projects/a0poster/demo/poster.pdf ___ ntg-context mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] suppressing hyphenation and setlayerframed
1-
I would like to suppress hypenation in a text of a \startfiguretext
within a \setlayerframed
I am aware of the thread in jan 03 on the list and the fact
that\setupalign[nothyphenated] (or \nohyphens) overshoot the right margin
On the other hand I do not know where to put the
align={left,nothyphenated,width} that was suggested in the reply
here is the piece I work with:
\setlayerframed[page][preset=righttop,
column=1,line=30][width=\dimexpr((\paperwidth-2cm)/2),align=]{\getbuffer[b]}
with the buffer:
\startfiguretext
[left][]{}
{\externalfigure[t1][width=.2\textwidth]}
... <<>...
\stopfiguretext
2-
still awfully raw on context I am looking for the options of
\setlayerframed, list and meaning, command that is absent from manuals
or web info-tools
in details.pdf some examples are build with
\setlayer[..][..]{\framed[..]{..}}
what's the difference, if any, betwwen the two form?
