[NTG-context] Support for Bold Small Caps font alternative
Dear All, in my document I combine both regular and bold small caps. As there is no predefined alternative for bold small caps variant, moreover, combining bold style and small caps has no effect, I've had to override an unused one: \definefontsynonym[SerifCaps][file:pala.ttf][features=small-caps] \definefontsynonym[SerifBoldSlanted][file:palab.ttf][features=small-caps] % bold caps Now I can switch styles using \sc and \bs.

[NTG-context] Palatino patch for the current ConTeXt version
Hello Everyone, I am trying to fix a Palatino small caps issue using the procedure explained here: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Palatino_Linotype_under_MKIV That fix seems to be obsolete nowadays and returning errors. I've changed fonts.otf.enhancers.patches[^pala] to fonts.handlers.otf.enhancers.patches[^pala] which compiles, but it does nothing. I've also tried this variant, but that 'patch' function is never called even though I clear my font cache every run: \startluacode local fonts= fonts local otf = fonts.handlers.otf local patches = otf.enhancers.patches local register = patches.register local report = patches.report function patch (data,filename) report(I am here) report(processing data %s, table.serialize(data)) end register(after,prepare glyphs,^pala, patch) \stopluacode Any idea?

When you use a opentype font you can enable the small caps feature
with the \feature command, there is no need for an additional font
synonym.
\setupbodyfont[pagella]
\starttext
Text {\feature[+][f:smallcaps]Text} {\bf Text
{\feature[+][f:smallcaps]Text}}
Text \smallcaps{Text} \bold{Text \smallcaps{Text}}
\stoptext
Thanks for pointing me to this nice feature! This is even more robust.
All my font definitions are based on this example
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Palatino_Linotype_under_MKIV
(with the help of ConTeXt Reference Manual where I didn't notice something
like this before).
In the light of this all examples on that page could be switched rather to
'feature' based styling to emphasise the power of this feature :-)

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Palatino_Linotype_under_MKIV
You can save a few lines in the font setup when you the new simplefonts
code (works only with a recent beta).
\definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Palatino
Linotype][features={default,quality}]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
What a great improvement!
In sum 4 basic + 2 complementary (smallcaps, oldstyle) styles out-of-the-box
thanks to this simple definition! Moreover, these basic and complementary ones
can be combined easily.
Other OTF features needs to be declared though:
\definefontfeature[f:superscript][sups=yes]
and then used as written above:
25 m{\feature[+][f:superscript]2}
But it is not so big deal.
jokeI suggest removing all font styles related descriptions in manuals, wiki
pages to some special place marked as obsolete and replace it with this simple
approach ending with a small note that if this is not applicable, there are
other, but deprecated, ways - with the appropriate hyperlink./joke.

[NTG-context] Index entries - custom font size

there are lot of index entries in my document and with the standard body

I've found a promising option compress=no|yes|all in an experimental
test case located in the strc-reg.mkiv file. The corresponding lua
code seems to be performing some cleanup of page ranges, but when
I define it same way, there is no difference in my output (still 1-1).
Looking into the lua code this one is an edge case as normalization is
performed if #pages 1 which is not achieved here. No problem.
But I've encountered more serious issue now:
When original pages are 'compressed' for the index
114, 117, 119, 122, 130-132, 135, 135-139, 188-204, 321-321
The incorrect result is returned:
114, 117, 119, 122, 130-135, 135-321
I'd expect:
114, 117, 119, 122, 130-132, 135-139, 188-204, 321
Debugging it roughly I've noticed unsorted page numbers before compressing
(in collapsedpage function in strc-reg.lua), which leads to unexpected
result from first/second comparison.
Some kind of page entries sorting might help here.

In one old book I've found the following solution for this:
in the index there are first three page references listed for

Can something like this be done in the ConTeXt (MkIV)?
I found an elegant way for this:
\defineprocessor[many][right= and many]
This processor is then applied just for the last index entry page reference:
\index[many-]{primary}
This can be automated in my system. Wow, great!

\stopregister[index][range_01]
I've finally found it is caused by this logic:
if first == last then
if first.references.lastrealpage then
-- IMHO this could be optional
pagerange(first,first,true,prefixspec,pagespec)
else
pagenumber(first,prefixspec,pagespec)
end
elseif last.references.lastrealpage then
pagerange(first,last,true,prefixspec,pagespec)
else
pagerange(first,last,false,prefixspec,pagespec)
end
Even after normalization, if there is a range, it is preserved regardless it
spans multiple pages or not. The fix is quite easy. But whether to convert
these single page ranges into a single value or not could be optional, or
applied according to the compress parameter (both 'yes' and 'all' would
collapse the range).

While the current implementation supports a single character order, in czech at least two are required - the primary one for the first pass and the secondary for the second pass. It ensures the correct order of accented characters. Anyway, I dive into the code and found an entry point in the sort-ini.lua file. In the comparers.basic(a,b) function I call a customized code instead of basicsort().

It is rare, but any help to eliminate it completely is appreciated.

following examples I would expect a single range 1-6:
a) 1-3, 3-6
b) 1-6, 2-4
c) 1-6, 5-6
This one was caused by improper Docbook = dbcontext = ConTeXt conversion.
All ranges of secondaries were treated as primaries so they were collected
at primaries. After fixing the XSLT such cases dissapeared completely.
Great. This would be a blocker for me.
3) when several single index entries are used on consecutive pages, the
result 1,2,3,4,5 is produced. Is there any option to create a range
from this?
I'm reconsidering this now. I designed my 'subject' index to use ranges when
the subject is thoroughly explained, which obviously needs to define
beginning and end. On the contrary, when the subject is just mentioned
(above the threshold of importance), I inserted just a single index entry
instance.
Collecting these single instances into the range of e.g. 1-5 would bring
false expectations that the subject is thoroughly explained there...
This logic goes slightly against the case (1). When the range would be
collapsed into to a single value, we would loose the info that the subject
is described here. But it looks weird.

Thanks, it helped a lot!
I've added this to control the gap (width) between text blocks:
\startcombination[distance=2cm]
And placed following commands inline to suppress the first whitespace
character. I like your indentation, but on my Windows (CR+LF) it is suboptimal.
Or is there any option for this?
\startframed [align=normal]\input knuth

[NTG-context] Side-by-side framed text blocks
Dear All, I'd like to type two blocks of text with different 'align' settings side by side. A desired output can be found e.g. in examples 1.9-1.10 in http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/style.pdf Here blocks have a background instead of frames though. Both variants are acceptable for me. I am lost in various text box, framing or columns switches and unable to create something similar.

Here's one way to do it:

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Source files for ConTeXt manuals
Dear All, as a newbie I am investigating various ConTeXt (MkIV) concepts and I feel that any direct comparison of the source and the final output would help me a lot. While in the ConTeXt reference manual I can see e.g. nice side-by-side framed text blocks, I am lost in various text box, framing or columns switches and unable to create something similar. While in this guide http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/style.pdf I can see many options for font expansion, something like this is not applicable to MkIV: \setupfonthandling [hz] [min=30,max=30,step=5] I've search for doc source in the source browser http://source.contextgarden.net/ but I still haven't found anything promising. Any idea? I just try to avoid spamming the list with most likely obvious and silly questions :-) Regards, Jan ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

[NTG-context] Centered title with numeration on the same line
Dear All,
in MkIV when any title is centered, its numeration is placed on a separate
line above the title itself.
I'd expect inline formatting which could be overridden as described here
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Titles
My code:
\setuplabeltext[en][chapter=Chapter~]
% while for chapter title this line break is handy (in my use case)
\setuphead[chapter][
alternative=middle,
style=\bfc,
conversion=Romannumerals,
numbercommand=\groupedcommand{\cap}{\blank[0.5cm]},
after={\blank[1cm]},
]
% for section it is inappropriate
\setuphead[section][
alternative=middle,
style=\bfa,
sectionsegments=section, % ignore component label
]
\starttext
\chapter{Foo}
\section{The First Section}
Text.
\stoptext
How can I keep numeration and title together?
Thanks,
Jan

[NTG-context] ToC - right-alignment of roman numerals
Dear All,
in fresh MkIV I use the following commands for building ToC, but I have no
idea how to align the label (roman numeral) to the right. In addition, the
specified width and distance seem to be somehow ignored so that label
interferes with the title.
\setuphead[chapter][conversion=Romannumerals]
\setupheadnumber[chapter][48]
\setupcombinedlist[content][
alternative=c,
distance=1em,
width=3cm,
]
\starttext
\completecontent
\chapter{Foo}
\chapter{Bar}
\stoptext
Here is the link with several screenshots of desired formatting:

parts-in-toc
Any hint is appreciated.

You can create a custom head alternative. The following code is
copied from the source, I only replace the \par with
\kern\headnumberdistance. Have a look at strc-ren.mkiv for other
layouts.
\setuphead
[section]
[alternative=middle_nolinebreak]
\defineheadalternative
[middle_nolinebreak]
[alternative=vertical,
renderingsetup=headrenderings:middle_nolinebreak]
\startsetups[headrenderings:middle_nolinebreak]
\vbox {
\headsetupspacing
\veryraggedcenter
\let\\\endgraf
\let\crlf\endgraf
\ifconditional\headshownumber
\strut
\headnumbercontent
\kern\headnumberdistance
\fi
\begstrut
\headtextcontent
\endstrut
}
\stopsetups
\starttext
\section{The First Section}

ignored so that label interferes with the title.
The width setting needs to be applied to the chapter list, not the
content list, see example above.

Maybe do you want deepnumbercommand ?
(see the links for the difference numbercommand vs deepnumbercommand)
The problematic part is that section title. The chapter title formatting is Ok
(but thanks for showing the way how to deal with these cases for future uses).
Applying deepnumbercommand to section didn't help to me...

Luigi, The problematic part is that section title. The chapter title formatting is Ok (but thanks for showing the way how to deal with these cases for future uses). Applying deepnumbercommand to section didn't help to me... I've used align=middle instead of alternative=middle in \setuphead[section] (in the first example I've used it for chapter) sorry for that, I overlooked this change completely. Your solution works as well and it is even much simpler.
