Re: [NTG-context] Using the margin for two purposes
Thanks Hans,
while I did experiment I had no chance at divining the correct dimension
distance=-\dimexpr\textwidth+2mm below.
So, with that, my bare bones marginbar in the right margin could look like the
one in the file below. Where do I squeeze in the alternative=1
option to get dotted lines? When I put it into \definesidebar, the sidebar
disappears, and when I write \startsidebar[oeps,alternative=1]
it reverts to the default left sidebar (albeit dotted).
Matthias
\setupmargindata [left]
[location=right,
style=\bfxx]
\setupmarginframed[left]
[frame=on,
framecolor=darkgray,
corner=round,
offset=3pt,
width=2cm,
align=middle]
\definesidebar[oeps][rulecolor=blue,distance=-\dimexpr\textwidth+2mm,rulethickness=.1pt]
\starttexdefinition startRightbar
\bgroup
\startsidebar[oeps]
\stoptexdefinition
\starttexdefinition stopRightbar
\stopsidebar

Just a few lines of text before the marked text.
\inmargin{Don’t\\read\\me\\again}

And a few lines of text after the marked text.

this works like a charm, with one exception: No matter what I try, the

[NTG-context] nested itemize in margin
To enumerate answer blanks in the right margin to match the question, thanks to
Marco:
\define\ansblank{\inright{\getnumber[itemgroup:itemize]. \thinrules[n=1]}}
\setupitemgroup [itemize] [n,style=bold,right=\ansblank]
I am trying to augment this to handle nested itemizations so that the
\getnumber in the right margin is from the parent itemize but the "\getletter"
is from the child:
\starttext
\startitemize[n]
\item First
\item Second
\startitemize[a]
\item Related problem % Would like this to show 2 a. before the marginrule
\item Related question % Would like this to show 2 b. before the marginrule
\stopitemize
\item Third
\stopitemize
\stoptext
Desired output:
1. First 1. _
2. Second
a. Related problem2a.
b. Related question 2b.
3. Third 3. _
My attempts have been to define a new "blank" and use [conversion=Character]
along with stabs from cont-eni.pdf, but I am flailing and failing.
Thanks for any help,
John

Re: [NTG-context] marginrule does not work properly in wiki
Looks like I understood the reason. It's not visible because it's inside the margin, and wiki does margins. :) Am I right? Hello, The following example does not work properly in wiki (the rule is missed), while in mkIV it's OK. \starttext \startmarginrule The sound of a duck is a good demonstration of how different people listen to a sound. Everywhere in Europe the sound is equal. But in every country it is described differently: kwaak||kwaak (Netherlands), couin||couin (French), gick||gack (German), rap||rap (Danish) and mech||mech (Spanish). If you speak these words aloud you will notice that in spite of the consonants the sound is really very well described. And what about a cow, does it say boe, mboe or mm? \stopmarginrule \stoptext http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Reference/en/startmarginrule Regards, Vyatcheslav -- Best Regards, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky ___ 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 ___
