[NTG-context] custom command \myframedsection does not always work. Bug?

2011-10-30 Thread Curiouslearn
Hi All,

Please see the working example below. I have defined a command called
\myframedsection. It works the first two times I use it, but not the
third time. I think it has something to do with using
\startitemize...\stopitemize before the command is used the third
time. But I am not sure. Can someone please tell me why it is not
working, and how I can change my definition so that it works? Is this
a bug?



Minimal Example:

\setuppapersize[letter][letter]
\setupwhitespace[medium]
\setuplayout[height=middle,width=middle,topspace=0.5in,header=1cm,backspace=1.25in]
\setupcolors[state=start]
\setupcolor[xwi]
\setupinteraction[state=start]

% Changing the location of the page numbers so that they appear in the footer.
\setuppagenumbering[location=footer]
\setupnarrower[left=2ex]
\setupitemize[margin=0.5cm]
\setupitemize[a]
\setupitemize[stopper=)]



%%% Defining \mysection and \myframedsection %%%
\definehead[mysection][section]
\setuphead[mysection][color=blue*:3]


\def\myframedsection#1{\bgroup\vskip 0.5in
\framed[background=color, backgroundcolor=gray:10]
{\mysection{#1}}%
  \egroup}

\starttext

\myframedsection{Confidence Intervals from the normal and $t$-distributions}

{\bf Here myframedsection commmand works.}

\subsection{Confidence Interval for Mean}


\subsection{Confidence Interval for Proportion}


\subsection{Confidence Interval for Linear Transformation}


 SECTION 
\myframedsection{Classical Hypothesis Testing}
 SECTION 

{\bf Here myframedsection commmand works.}


\startitemize

\stopitemize

 SECTION 

\myframedsection{Problems with Statistical Significance}

 SECTION 

{\bf where is the section title??}

Researchers often compare results based on statistical
significance. There are two pitfalls in doing so:

\startitemize
\item
  Statistical significance does not mean practical significance.

  A result that is statistically significant may be practically
  insignificant.

\item
  If one result is statistically significant and other is not, it
  does not necessarily mean that the difference in the two results
  is statistically significant.

  For example, suppose there are two independent studies, one with
  an effect estimate of 25 and standard error of 10. Another with
  an effect estimate of 10 and standard error of 10. The former is
  statistically significant at 1\% significance level. The latter
  is not significant at 1\%. From this one may be tempted to
  conclude that there is a large/significant difference between
  the results in two studies. However, this is not true. The
  estimate of difference in the effects is 15 with standard error
  of $ \sqrt{10^{2} + 10^{2}} = 14 $. This is not even close to being
  statistically significant at 1\% level.
\stopitemize

Re: [NTG-context] What are the best fonts to use

2011-03-16 Thread Curiouslearn
Cecil, thanks for asking this question. Even though the answers
may/will be subjective, it is quite likely that there are people here
who have given some thought to font choice. I agree with previous
responses that reading a book on typography would certainly be
helpful. Nevertheless, I am interested in hearing what fonts people
like (if they do not mind sharing). I, and perhaps some others, may
learn about a few fonts.

 At the moment I use for my ebook:
 \usetypescript[palatino][texnansi]
 \setupbodyfont[palatino,rm,12pt]

 Does not look to bad, but layout is not my forte. So if people have tips
 about the fonts to use, I like to hear them.

 Do you use other fonts when using a printed book?


 I don't think this question can have one answer. There are many good
 answers, depending on the kind of book (or other printed material).

 1. I think the layout of the page itself can have a great deal to do
 with whether a certain font looks good (e.g. amount of white space,
 length of lines, etc). Paying proper attention to the gross aspects of
 your layout, such as margins and line heights, goes a long way to
 improving the appearance of the whole work, and brings out the best in
 whichever font you choose.

 2. To some extent, different fonts can suit different material (e.g. a
 book of poems vs a financial report, or a textbook vs a novel). For
 extended reading, the conventional wisdom is to choose a
 normal-looking font that doesn't call attention to itself too much,
 but obviously you also want one that is at least somewhat attractive to
 look at.

 3. Frankly, giving people what they are already used to is often the
 best plan - probably more often than typographers would care to admit.
 In my opinion, variation for its own sake is over-rated and over-used.

[NTG-context] problem with tikz remember picture and overlay.

Re: [NTG-context] problem with tikz remember picture and overlay.

2011-03-07 Thread Curiouslearn
Hi All,

I realized one error in my tikz code. I forgot the semi-colon. But
with the semi-colon, the tikz part is completely ignored.

Anyhow, in a previous post here I found a good example of absolute
positioning of text using Context's positioning macro. That is awesome
for my current purpose. Thanks Peter for that (and of course, Hans for
everything).

But would still like to learn if Tikz's absolute positioning is
incompatible with Context.

[NTG-context] Layers for absolute positioning

2011-03-07 Thread Curiouslearn
Hi,

I have been trying to learn the best way to position text on a page.
From the messages it appears that a good way to do so, is to use
layers. But it seems that to activate them I need to set them as
background of the page. However, that removes the background color.
How can I get both layers and a background color?

I have given a minimal example below.

Thanks,
Bharat


This is the minimal example I am working with:

\setupcolors[state=start]
\setupcolor[xwi]

[NTG-context] vertical alignment in simpleslides

2011-03-05 Thread Curiouslearn
Hi

Today I started making lecture slides for one of my classes and
decided to try out simpleslides. First of all, thanks to Thomas and
Aditya for writing the module.

I had a question regarding vertical alignment. Consider the following
minimal example:

   \usemodule[simpleslides][style=Swoosh]
   \starttext
   \SlideTitle{Context can be used for \dots}

  \startitemize[n]
   \item
   Writing your articles
   \item
   Making slides for presentations
  \stopitemize

  \stoptext

The two items appear at the top of the slide. Is there a command or a
setting such that items will be aligned around the center of the
screen?

Thank you for your help.

Bharat

Thanks for the response, Aditya.

However, the first method

\setupitemize[before=\vfill,after=\vfill]

does not change anything for me. The items are still at the top.

The second one (\setupitemize[1][inbetween=\vfill]) changes things.
However, the first item is at the top of the screen and the second is
at the bottom. I would like them to be near the center. Something like
what 'middle' does for horizontal alignment with two words, I want to
do for vertical alignment.

Thanks.

 You can also add

 \setupitemize[1][inbetween=\vfill]

 Another option is:

 \def\StartSlide#1%
  {\SlideTitle{#1}
   \vfill}

 \def\StopSlide
  {\vfill}

 and then

 \StartSlide{...}
 ...
 \StopSlide

Awesome!! This worked great. I need to understand what 2fill and 3fill
does. I will try looking at Victor Eijkhout's book. But if you know of

 Didn't realize that you were using the Swoosh style, that sets its title
 using a layer. Therefore you need to use

 \setupitemize[before=\null\vfill, after=\vfill]

 The second one (\setupitemize[1][inbetween=\vfill]) changes things.
 However, the first item is at the top of the screen and the second is
 at the bottom. I would like them to be near the center. Something like
 what 'middle' does for horizontal alignment with two words, I want to
 do for vertical alignment.

 This is useful only if the previous command works. You can play around with
 the amount of fill at the start and end to create symmetric looking layouts.
 For example:

 \setupitemize[1][before={\null\vskip 1ex plus 2fill},
                 after={\vskip 1ex plus 3fill}]
 \setupitemize[1][inbetween=\vfill]

 (Actually, rather than using the low-level \vskip, it is better to use
 ConTeXt high level interface using \blank. But I do not remember how create
 \blank with vertical glue).

 Think of fill as a spring that pushes both sides. 2fill is a spring that
 pushes twice as hard. With a \vskip 1ex plus 2fill at top and \vskip 1ex
 plus 3fill at bottom, 2/5 th of the total blank space is on the top, and 3/5
 th is at the bottom.

 With inbetween=\vfill, and two items, the equation changes to

 2/6th of the empty space on top
 1/6th of the empty space inbetween the two items
 3/6th of the empty at the bottom

 Hi list,

 until now I used the bib module for my bibliography in a rather large
 document in MkIV by calling \usemodule[bib].

 Today I updated to version 2011.02.25 22:03 and the document does no longer
 compile. I removed the above line from my document and it ran again, but the
 References section was empty and I got [[error 1]] everywhere I used
 \cite. So I changed \completepublications to
 \completepublications[criterium=all]. Now I have the complete list of
 references (I know, I asked for it) but instead I only want to have those
 references in the list that I cited in the document.

 Some questions:
 (1) Is the bib module obsolete? If so, can someone provide me with a small
 example how to properly make bibliographies now, preferably from a
 .bib-file?

 (2) If this is not already answered by the first question: How do I get the
 references list to display only the cited entries from my bibliography,
 [criterium=?]?

 (3) What do I have to do to let context find the sample.bib database? I get
 I couldn't open database file sample.bib.bib or I couldn't open database
 file sample.bib in the output depending on whether I added .bib or not.

 My current setup is this:
 %\usemodule[bib]
 \setupbibtex[database={mybibdatabase.bib}]
 \setuppublications[alternative=ams, refcommand=num]
 \setupcite[num][lastpubsep={, }]
 \setupcite[author][left=, right=]

 \completepublications[criterium=all]

 Any help appreciated,

 Hi Bharat and all,

 1. No, that's not right. I simply collected outstanding issues, I can't fix
 them.

 2. Hans is working on bib issues as we speak, but he has only so much time,
 so no ETA.

 3. For the problem described above, try

 \usepublications[criterium=text]

 Bib support is an extremely complex area, so be aware that we're still
 experimenting and things are moving. Having as many testers as possible with
 many different requirements helps a lot finding and identifying errors.

 HTH

Re: [NTG-context] increase space on the left of pages included using \copypages

2011-02-23 Thread Curiouslearn
Hi Thomas,

I am preparing notes for my lectures and I would like to include some
online news articles (such as NY times) that I save as PDF,  in my
notes (these notes are for me). When I save these online articles as
pdf, I often get a small left margin and big right margin (just as in
includethis.pdf; I deliberately made it similar to these news
articles).

I will try to do this using lua loop. I should learn it. I am learning
so many new things currently that I have not had a chance to learn
Lua.

I was wondering if Aditya's filter module could be used to use Python
instead of Lua, but I suppose I should ask that as a new question.

Thanks for your help.

 Curiouslearn (if you're older than 13 years, I'd appreciate a real name), 
 it's not easy to see what you want to do. The included pages, like the 
 document where you want to include them, are letter size. If you simply 
 include them, they will take the entire width. The small margin left and big 
 margin right are already in you includethis.pdf. If you want more margin 
 left, all you can do is scale the image. Or adjust the papersize of the file 
 you want to include. But if you want to have some special effect (like 
 pushing part of your included image off the page), you'll have to use 
 something like \externalfigure, as Hans suggested. Btw, if you know the 
 number of pages you want to include, it's relatively trivial to write a 
 simple loop, both in mkii (with \dorecurse and \recurselevel) or with a lua 
 loop.

 It is easy to do this in TeX, so no need to go to lua (or python).

 Call

 \getfiguredimensions[filename]

 Then you can use

 \noffigurepages
 \figurenaturalwidth \figurenaturalheight

 to place each page of the figure. Something like:

 \getfiguredimensions[filename]
 \dorecurse{\noffigurepages}
 {\externalfigure[figurename][page=\recurselevel]}

[NTG-context] Installation context minimals

2010-12-15 Thread Curiouslearn
Hello,

Can someone please tell me if the instructions for
installation/updating of minimals given on

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals#Unix-like_platforms_.28Linux.2FMacOS_X.2FFreeBSD.2FSolaris.29

are still valid.

I went to my /Applications/ContextMinimals folder (on Mac OSX) and typed:

sh first-setup.sh --extras=all

Then I entered,

mtxrun --selfupdate

However, I got the following:


MTXrun | resolvers: to be replaced old script
/Applications/ConTeXtMinimalsStable/tex/texmf-osx-intel/bin/mtxrun
MTXrun | resolvers: using suffix based filetype 'lua'
MTXrun | resolvers: unable to locate new script

Seems like there was a problem here. Anyway, I went ahead and did

luatools --selfupdate

and I got:

MTXrun | unknown script 'base.lua' or 'mtx-base.lua'

and, then I did

context --make

which gave me,

MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua'

Can someone please explain the recipe for installation. What I should do?

Also, I have read long back in the forum that some people have two
installations at the same time and you can switch between these. How
is this done? Is there any information about this on the Wiki.

Thanks.

I just want to update my post to include the following information:

I had forgotten to run the following step during the installation:

source /Applications/ContextMinimals/tex/setuptex

I did that and ran the three commands

   mtxrun --selfupdate
   luatools --generate
   context --make


This time a lot of things happened for the the latter two commands.

I should mention that I also added the following line to my .bash_profile file

. /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex

However, when I try to typeset the file, I get the following error:

MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua'

Any ideas. Please help!

OkayI think the following was missing. In addition to the three
commands I needed

mtxrun --generate

I have update the Wiki by adding this command to making formats. Let
me know if this is incorrect.

 No, indeed they were not sorted. But I saw that the the .bbl file was

 \setuppublications  (so, in your example use
 \setuppublications[refcommand=authoryear,sorttype=bbl]) and use
 \placepublications[] you will get the cited publications sorted
 alphabetically by author name.

 I later saw that this solution was already given by Aditya Mahajan in
 ntg-context Digest, Vol 76, Issue 141   Date:   29 oktober 2010, Message
 4, Subject:  sorttype for bibtex

 On top of that, this is also documented in the bib module's manual.

 Except that doesn't seem to work with the bibliography being placed
 using \placepublications in its own chapter in the backmatter. A
 similar issue was reported in 2006

 http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg15442.html

 but the solution given then involved writing 
 \placepublications[criterium=all].

 Hi,
 When you add

 \nocite[Aucremanne2005]
 \nocite[Fabiani2007]


 before \section{References}
 these non cited publications will show up in your bibliography. (At
 least it does here with Minimals of 24 november)

 ... which is the way it should be, no? The problem of the original
 poster is that these entries should not appear in the bibliography
 despite being in the .bib file, because they aren't mentionned at all
 in the main text.

 I can confirm this issue. I have run into myself in typesetting my thesis.

 Hi,
 Apparently I misunderstood the problem in the original post. If you do
 not want to mention uncited literature in your bibliography leave the
 argument of  \placepublications[] empty  or comment out
 %[criterium=all].

 Robert Blackstone

 In the following minimal example I specified the lines that will make

 Correction: It doesn't work fine outside xml, too, when again put in a

[NTG-context] Mac installation-file not found error

2010-03-09 Thread Curiouslearn
Hi,

I tried updating my context minimal installation today (on Mac OSX
10.5.8) using the command

sh ./first-setup.sh --extras=all

Somewhere during the installation process the terminal gave me an
error saying something like

file \loadmarkfile{node-mig} not found. Enter another file name.

I did not know what to enter so I pressed (Ctrl-C) and then
installation process continued. I compiled a simple file and it
compiled without any problems. Should I be worried about that file?

Thanks.

Re: [NTG-context] What do you miss in ConTeXt?

2010-02-08 Thread Curiouslearn
Nice thread. Thanks for starting this Wolfgang.

First of all, Context is great and I love it. I think I miss the
geometry package of the latex. It makes setting margins very easy. I
think setting margins (left, right, top and bottom) could be easier in
Context.

I am glad that tikz has started working well with context. That is a
big relief.

I hope (and this perhaps has nothing to do with the brilliant Context
development team) is that journals start accepting Context files.
While I use context for my personal and class notes, for articles I am
still forced to go to latex because journals do not accept context
files.

 \starttabulate etc..

2010-01-05 Thread Curiouslearn
Vladimir, I am not sure that the settings are incorrect. Why does it
work with MKII then? Also it worked with MKIV before. It broke only
recently.

Can someone please throw light on this? Is the disapperance of the
numbers, as Vladimir suggests, expected behavior of the minimal
example in MKIV.

 This is because of your settings. Try change location. In order to
 understand what's wrong with your settings see output for this example
 (I tried with context minimals):

 \setuppapersize[A5][A4]

 \setuplayout[location=middle]
 \starttext
 \defineenumeration[problem][text= ,location=inleft]
 \setupenumerations[problem][stopper=)]

 \problem
 problem 1


 \problem

 In okular (or Adobe Reader) you see that enumeration numbers are out
 of page and you don't see them.

Thanks Wolfgang. I am not yet proficient enough in Metapost or Context

Meanwhile, is there any further work going on on Natural Tables? Are
there plans to introduce the ability to have borders of different

In addition to the advantages others have mentioned, I have found that

 middle or is aligned to the right. I want it to start at the left.

 Thanks.

 The correct way to do this is

 \setupformulas[align=flushleft]

 \starttext
 \startformula
  a = b
 \stopformula
 \stoptext

 However, this does not work in MkIV due to a bug introduced in the splitting
 of mkii-mkiv files. math alignment works using commands

 \def\startinnermath
  {\getvalue{\e!start\??fm\formulaparameter\c!align}}

 \def\stopinnermath
  {\getvalue{\e!stop \??fm\formulaparameter\c!align}}

 which are defined in math-ali.mkiv. However, strc-mat.mkiv redefines these
 to \empty, so the simple math alignment does not work anymore.

 Hans: we need to either move these definitions from math-ali to strc-mat or
 remove

 \let\startinnermath\empty
 \let\stopinnermath \empty

 from strc-mat.mkiv

Re: [NTG-context] margin option in itemize

Thanks Wolfgang and Luigi. Luigi's solution worked well.
Unfortunately, left={hspace[normal]} did not give the desired outcome.
The item symbols were still at their original location.

I have a follow up question. Based on your solution I also tried
left=\hskip 2.10em, which works too? Is there a reason why \kern is
better than \hskip?

Re: [NTG-context] margin option in itemize

2009-12-11 Thread Curiouslearn
I suppose you can think of 'margin=dimension' option as increasing the
margin by the specified dimension for the list. It works without any
problems for a list that is not nested within another list. However,
with nesting, as in the example I emailed, it does not work.

I tried the 'width' command but that does not do what I want. It
inserts the space between the item symbol and the item text. I want
the space before item symbol.

Thanks.

 No. These days, the ConTeXt core defines \newcommand so the bibltx
 module is obsolete.

 (0.5) Using \type{\cite[author,year][BergstromBagnoli2005]} just returns
 the key in the document

 This is caused by the \cite[author,year][] input. If the first argument
 of \cite[] has a comma, it is taken to be the list of references, and
 the second set of square brackets is just typeset text.
 Use \cite[authoryear][] or \cite[authoryears][].

 (1) If the Key has a paranthesis, the \cite[Reference] gives empty
 brackets.

 In this example, I do not know what is wrong, but adding an
 explicit first argument to \cite fixes it. It could be that the
 optional argument parser in ConTeXt gets confused by the ().

 (2) If I use \cite[author][Reference] then I get a line break after
 the opening paranthesis.

 This is a bug in current mkiv that was also mentioned in a thread last
 week. Should be fixed in this beta or one of the next ones.

 As a workaround, you can add

  \usepublications[\jobname]

 just after the \usemodule[bib] line

 (3) Also, note that I refer to only one paper of Daughety and
 Reinganum in the minimal example below. However, because there are two
 papers by them in my database, the References section lists the year
 as (2000a) instead of just (2000). The bbl file generated contains all
 the references in my database and not only the once I have cited.

 Adding

  \def\maybeyear#1{}

 works around this. It is one of the few bibtex features that I have
 not found a good solution for. Otherwise, just remove the \setupbibtex
 command from the source and edit the bbl file by hand.

 Should it not contain only the ones I have cited in the document.

 No, it always contains the entire database. That is why manuak editing
 is possible.

 Best wishes,
 Taco

[NTG-context] Bibliography help

2009-12-05 Thread Curiouslearn
Hi,

Is it possible to use .bib files that I had made for latex (it is a
bibtex database), with Context? Do I need to use the module bibltx for
these? When I compile my source code the Log window says, module
bibltx not found (log file is pasted below).

I tried the first example in the Bibliography article on Context
Garden with some small changes. That is, I tried the following.

\usemodule[bib]
\usemodule[bibltx]
\setupbibtex[database=econbibTest]
\starttext
\section{Checking Bib}
See \cite[Bergstrom_Bagnoli(2005)] for monotonicity properties of
hazard rates of various standard distributions.

  journal = {Economic Theory},
  year = {2005},
  volume = {26},
  pages = {445-469},
  timestamp = {2008.06.08}
}

I have attached the output.  I have reproduced the citation from the
bibtex file above to show what the bib file contains. Can someone
please point out where I am going wrong?

Thanks very much.

Re: [NTG-context] Bibliography help - some problems I have noticed

2009-12-05 Thread Curiouslearn
I was trying to figure out the problem and I found that the database I
was referring to was empty. I perhaps forgot to save it. When replaced
with the appropriate .bib file I do get the references at the end of
the document. But I observed the following. Would really appreciate if
someone could point out whether I am making a mistake or whether there
is a bug.

(1) If the Key has a paranthesis, the \cite[Reference] gives empty brackets.
(2) If I use \cite[author][Reference] then I get a line break after
the opening paranthesis.
(3) Also, note that I refer to only one paper of Daughety and
Reinganum in the minimal example below. However, because there are two
papers by them in my database, the References section lists the year
as (2000a) instead of just (2000). The bbl file generated contains all
the references in my database and not only the once I have cited.
Should it not contain only the ones I have cited in the document.

The following is a minimals example, demonstrating above problems. I
have included the bibtex source of the citations used below. If you
need more information, please let me know.

Re: [NTG-context] Metapost label - Truncating digits after decimal point

 Here is a helper macro for you:

    string s, tmp;
    numeric ii, e;
    e := -1;
    for i=1 upto length(origs):

      if e=0: e := e+1; exitif en;  fi
    endfor;
    s:=substring(0,ii) of origs; )
  s
 enddef;


 When run this macro with the result of decimal() as second argument,
 it will create a new string as many fractional digits as you specify
 in the first argument:

  label.lft(textext(trunc_digits(1,decimal f(5))),(0,f(5)) scaled u);

Thanks Mojca. I knew the backspace would work, but I did not know why

 No, because backspace=1in by default, so what you thought of as left

Re: [NTG-context] Metapost - Seems like weird behavior. Is it a bug?

2009-11-25 Thread Curiouslearn
Taco, thanks for the suggestions. I will try using intersectiontimes.
It would be great if, as you said, this is solved with Metapost 2.0.

Any idea when that version is coming out?

Thanks.

 The solution is to add an explicit fix to Lint[4] just after its
 current assignment:

 Even better is to not use intersectionpoint at all: use
 intersectiontimes instead. With that, you can select a point
 that is guaranteed to be on one of the two paths.

 Best wishes,

[NTG-context] Adjusting the size of a figure when using placefigure

2009-11-24 Thread Curiouslearn
Please see the figure generated by the following minimal example. Due

original figure)?

Re: [NTG-context] Pstricks and Asymptote

2009-11-17 Thread Curiouslearn
I tried Metapost last year for a few graphs and liked the fact that it
is tightly integrated with Context. I found John Hobby's document a
good place to learn it and then used Hans' Metafun to learn further.
The reason I am looking at Asymptote and pstricks is because they have
libraries or functionality which Metapost lacks. For example, the tree
drawing library in pstricks. If Metapost has such a library I don't
know since I cannot find any document that explains the new things
added to Metapost other than what is mentioned in Metafun(2001). As
you said documentation is lacking.
Similarly, Asymptote allows one to find intersection points of any two
paths (even nonlinear paths). I am not sure whether Metapost can do
that.

I keep reading that Taco is working on development of Metapost.
However, I am not sure what exactly has changed. If there is any new
documentation, I would love to read it.

Thanks.

 Alan, the tikz module does not work with MKIV. From what I have read
 before, it seems it will not unless the creator of tikz makes some
 changes to tikz package so that it works with Context. I am not sure
 how likely that is.


 I know that tikz is (currently) not working under mkiv, but I choose to ignore
 this as I expect that this will be fixed. I have not been concerned with this,
 as I no longer actively use tikz. Indeed, since learning (and still learning)
 metapost, I find it far superior: cleaner syntax, much more powerful... Tikz
 is/was a very welcome addition to laTeX, but metapost, whose syntax is more
 closely related to plain TeX, is more coherent with ConTeXt. So I now find the
 syntax of tikz uncomfortable under ConTeXt.

 I still sometimes use LaTeX for the submission of articles to scientific
 journals (in particular using RevTeX), but I now use ConTeXt
 (\startTEXpage\stopTEXpage) to make the figures (that must be submitted as
 separate files in any case).

 Alan

 P.S. What I really liked about tikz is the quality of its documentation, in
 particular the tutorial that is very clear. The documentation for metapost
 (and metafun) is very good, but not so easy. *We* need to write a good
 tutorial!

Re: [NTG-context] Pstricks and Asymptote

2009-11-17 Thread Curiouslearn
Thanks to all who made some suggestions about where I can find
Metapost libraries. Will look into those.

It seems Asymptote + Tikz  is a good way to go and also try out Metapost again.

Mojca, you  said that number of pstricks users are decreasing. Is this
amongst Context users, or in general amongst all users who use
pstricks. If the overall number of users is decreasing then perhaps I
don't want to spend time learning it as it won't have new features in
the future. I don't like its syntax, though it can do neat things.
Asymptote syntax is really good.

Thanks again.

Re: [NTG-context] Pstricks and Asymptote

2009-11-17 Thread Curiouslearn
I think I should give Metapost a try. There are two reasons, I tried
out asymptote
(i) Its syntax seems easier to remember
(ii) It can find intersections of curves (not only straight lines)
quite easily.

Can Metapost do the second? Anyhow, I am going to give it a try again
to see if I like it.

Thanks.

 Mojca, you  said that number of pstricks users are decreasing.

 I didn't say that it's decreasing. I just said that it's really low,
 but I meant ConTeXt users with that. There are still plenty LaTeX
 users around.

 The main problem is that PS Tricks cannot be very well integrated
 unless one uses tex-dvips, but ConTeXt doesn't use that for ages and
 there is basically no support for dvi in ConTeXt either.

 Is this

 Are there any neat features that you won't to do, but cannot do with
 TikZ? (I'm sure there are some, but I'm also sure that 99% of drawings
 can be done in a very similar way in TikZ as well unless there is a
 well-developed PSTricks library around that's missing in TikZ.)

 Asymptote is very similar to MetaPost. The main reason why I would
 want to use it is to draw 3D, else I would go for MetaPost since it's
 much faster and better integrated when used within ConTeXt.

Does not work for me.

Luigi, the reason I have used the \setupsystem[random=] is to control
the randomization and not have it change everytime I compile it. This
is I think necessary if I want the answerkey that identfies the
correct option.

[NTG-context] Pstricks and Asymptote

2009-11-16 Thread curiouslearn
I apologize if this has been asked before, but would appreciate if anyone could
answer this again.

(a) Is there an easy way to incorporate asymptote code in a Context document,
like there exists in Latex. In latex you can include it between
\begin{asy}

\end{asy}
   

(b) Is there an easy way to incorporate pstricks code in a Context document. If
there is, does that way work both with MKII and MKIV or only with one of them. 

The reason I am asking is that eventually all the new Context features will be
in MKIV. I want to know what graphics packages I can use with it other than
Metapost.

Re: [NTG-context] Pstricks and Asymptote

2009-11-16 Thread Curiouslearn
Thanks everyone for replying.

Mojca, in case you read this, can you please let me know what the
status on asymptote is.

Alan, the tikz module does not work with MKIV. From what I have read
before, it seems it will not unless the creator of tikz makes some
changes to tikz package so that it works with Context. I am not sure
how likely that is.

Thomas or someone else can you please confirm that the pstricks module
works with MKIV. Also, where I can find the module? It is not there
with the other third party modules.

Thanks.

 There was a discussion about asymptote on this list in the summer,
 Mojca has done quite a lot of work towards integrating it. But I'm not
 sure what the current state is.

  (b) Is there an easy way to incorporate pstricks code in a Context

 There's a module pstricks. Again, a search in the list archives would

 In addition, there is a module tikz, integrating pgf/tikz, also maintained by
 Mojca.

earlier table. I am using MKII (since I want to use Tikz).

just want to make sure that, that is the best way).

 Since there is no complete working example I can't test it but you can add
 'distance=\spaceamount' to your enumeration setup.

 add either 'width=broad' or 'width=fit,distance=...' to your setup while in
 the second
 case it's sometimes better to use a font related value like 1ex or 0.5em.

I wanted to check the fonts that are properly installed with (that come

*mtxrun --script fonts --list*

After doing some things, the terminal gives me the following message:

*font loading failed for /System/Library/Fonts/Keyboard.dfont

*I also tried*

*

*mtxrun --script fonts --reload*


But that did not work either. I got the same message.

  Hi,
 
  I wanted to check the fonts that are properly installed with (that come

  Context Garden, I entered the following command at the terminal prompt
 
  * mtxrun --script fonts --list *
 
  After doing some things, the terminal gives me the following message:
 
  *font loading failed for /System/Library/Fonts/Keyboard.dfont

 This message is ok. Keyboard.dfont is not a normal font. mkiv could
 skip it during the iteration just to prevent frightening users, but
 nothing bad or unexpected is happening.

 Best wishes,

Thanks so much.

 Ah! You need an (even) newer luatex trunk.

 I'll try to do a luatex release tomorrow, btw.

Thanks again, Aditya.

Anyone, is there a way to get bold upright symbols in math for the default
Context font? If not, which font can I use that is available with the
default Context minimals installation that is a unicode font.

Thank you.

 vector = is missing. See the attached patch.

 This setup overwrites the previous one, write them in reverse order and it
 will work.

I tried

\setupTABLE[column][1][width=2.5in,align={lohi}]
\setupTABLE[column][2][width=3in,align={lohi}]
\setupTABLE[row][1][align={middle}]

But that does not work either.

Yes, that worked great. After looking at your solution, I vaguely remember

not. It was so long back that I had forgotten about it.

Thanks for the solution.

Re: [NTG-context] Bold letters in math and does tikz work

2009-08-14 Thread Curiouslearn
 You can get bold upright symbol in math fonts. There was a bug in
 math-vfu.lua, for which I gave a patch in my previous email. If you apply
 that patch to math-vfu and then regenerate formats, ${\bf A}$ will give
 upright bold math. If you do not want to patch math-vfu on your own, wait
 for the next beta by Hans.

 This will not work with bold greek letters or bold operators.


 Aditya


Thanks Aditya. I have no clue how to use the patch. I think I will wait for
the next Beta from Hans.

 ${\bi A}$ (bold italic) or with a unicode font use can also use ${\bf A}$
 (bold upright).

  Also, does Tikz work with the latest version of context minimals?


 This needs to be fixed by Till Tantanu. There was a long email discussion
 on this.

Thanks for the clarification, Mojca. Frankly, I am not sure how difficult this

[NTG-context] Fraktur symbol in subscript

2009-07-06 Thread curiouslearn
Hello All,

While the \fraktur{C} command works for me in the Math mode as part of a regular
expression, it does not work in the subscript. The command I am trying is 
$ x  \sim_{\fraktur{C}}  y $. I get a blank in place of the fraktur C. However,
if I try just $ x \fraktur{C} y $, it works. Does anyone have a fix?

I am using 
This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.40.5-2009061123 (Web2C 2009)
ConTeXt  ver: 2009.06.14 21:01 MKIV  fmt: 2009.6.25  int: english/english
