If your sample includes no theorem or text background, please remove
these definitions when sending code.
BTW, avoid include text content (such as margin and body rules [but not
their definitions]) before \starttext.
Also, use \clrf instead of \\ (since the mailing list displays the

Your margin text is undefined. Your code has a defined margin text
command, but it isn’t used.

Sorry, but I’m having the impression you are using ConTeXt as a kind of

I think it is better to define a single margin text command and use a
doublesided page setup.

Here you open a brace that is not closed at all.
At least, consider that this won’t be extremely readable for other

Dear Otared,
when you read the lua code in the first \directlua{}, you should realize that
the dimensions of almost all layout elements are depending on the value of my
lua variable "paperSize".
Thanks to defining the paper size first in lua, I can apply calculations of
numeric values.
The value of paperSize is later passed on to \setuppapersize via

[NTG-context] Re: Japanese
Hi Emmanuel,
Thank you so much for the new setup for writing Japanese: I tested with both
files, and noticed that with the new version the output looks great.
I have a question about the code in the \directlua{} part of your setup: why,
for instance, the
paperSize = « B5"
is defined « by hand » there, instead of being retrieved from the command
\setuppapersize[B5]
issued by the user?
Actually I am using your setup for learning Japanese, and at my beginner’s
level I do separate words I am learning with spaces. While with the previous
version of your setup the lines were breaking womewhat strangely, but now the
spaces between words in the output are as I intended them to be (I should also
Thank Wolfgang Schuster for his insight with the \script[nihongo], and indeed
Hans for fixing so quickly the slightest bug).
It is really a great pleasure to be in this community where help comes from
everyone and features are given on demand !

[NTG-context] Re: Japanese
Dear Dalyoung,
Thank you very much for your insight. I downloaded the Noto Serif JP fonts and
set up a fontfamily as you indicated, by adding
\setscript[nihongo]
which solves a problem I had with line breakings. And everything works smoothly!
So, for the mail archive, here is what I have and what works fine:
%%% Noto Fonts
\definefontfamily[JapaneseFont][rm][Noto Serif JP]
[ it={style:regular,features:{*,slanted}},
sl={style:regular,features:{*,slanted}},
bi={style:bold,features:{*,slanted}},force=yes]
\definefontfamily[JapaneseFont][ss][Noto Serif JP]
[ it={style:regular,features:{*,slanted}},
sl={style:regular,features:{*,slanted}},
bi={style:bold,features:{*,slanted}},force=yes]
\definefontfamily[JapaneseFont][tt][Noto Serif JP]
[ it={style:regular,features:{*,slanted}},
sl={style:regular,features:{*,slanted}},
bi={style:bold,features:{*,slanted}},force=yes]
\definefontfamily[JapaneseFont][math][Tex Gyre Termes Math]
%\definefontfamily[JapaneseFont][math][Tex Gyre Pagella Math]
%\definefontfamily[JapaneseFont][math][Tex Gyre Aventor]
\setupbodyfont[JapaneseFont,12pt]
\setupruby[location=top,voffset=-2ex]
\setupwhitespace[big]
\setscript[nihongo]
\starttext

[NTG-context] Re: Japanese
Dear Otared,
I am using Korean as main language.
I used use typescript file, but recently I use \definefontfamily.
Since using Japanese font is similar to use Korean font, I show my example of
using Noto fonts. It was made by the help of expert of this list long time ago.
You may change "Noto Serif CJK KR” to Japanese font.
I also use "\setscript[hangul]” when I use Korean as mainlanaguage.
I hope that you may enhance the following code.
Best regards,
Dalyoung

[NTG-context] Re: Japanese
Hi Emanuel,
Thanks for the example. In fact I don’t need vertical typesetting for my
Japanese text, so your example works fine for me.
Actually I had to change the name of the font to Hiragino Mincho ProN W3 in
order to get your example work.
Also I think with the recent versions of ConTeXt there is no need to add
\enableregime[utf]
because ConTeXt is working with Unicode any way.
I added also a line to define a math font, since I have read here on the
mailing list that a math font should be set… Maybe someone among the experts
can tell us if I am right, or if one has to set other fonts as well.
So your example which works fine for me is now:
% begin simple-japanese.tex
\definefontfamily [JapaneseFont] [rm] [Hiragino Mincho ProN W3]
\definefontfamily [JapaneseFont] [ss] [Hiragino Mincho ProN W3]
\definefontfamily [JapaneseFont] [mm] [math] [lucidaot] [default]
\setupbodyfont[JapaneseFont,14pt]
\setupruby[location=top,voffset=-1.6ex]
\setupwhitespace[big]
\starttext
\ruby{僕}{ぼく}はもう\ruby{寝}{ね}る。
お\ruby{休}{やす}みなさい＾＿＾
\stoptext
%end simple-japanese.tex

Unfortunately vertical typesetting is not supported by ConTeXt. That's a big
pity.
If horizontal typesetting is fine, this little working example with furigana
might give you some hints. Hiragino Mincho Pro should be installed by Default
on MacOS.

The order= mechanism doesn't seem to work for \definelist lists as opposed to
the built-in ones, viz:
\definelist[chron]
\starttext
\placelist[section][order=title]
\section{Hans}
\writetolist[chron]{}{Hans}

And yet, experiments suggest that frameoffset does indeed do something (in,
specifically, \externalfigure, I didn't yet try \setupexternalfigure).
Given that frameoffset does something and is not mentioned in setup-en.pdf,
I will add to my wonderment
(2') the summary in setup-en.pdf is incomplete.

Well, given that (at least on my computer, with context updated a couple of
days ago) frameoffset does do something. So I still see an inconsistency.
I would be happy to help out by editing the wiki to accurately describe
reality. The problem is, I'm not sure what reality is supposed to be on
this point. For example, if I edited the wiki to say that offset has no
effect in \setupexternalfigure, and it turns out that some (recent?) change
to something else broke 'offset=', then I wouldn't want to add
misinformation.

As I mentioned, on my system I can get a frame offset from the image
without using \frame, but unfortunately it is the type of frame which is
"invisible" to the layout of the page.

To get offset in the frame of the image, you need a different frame from

up in the TOC. There is the normal TOC at the front of the book,
according to chapter titles.
I have succeeded in defining a separate TOC to place at the back, but
have not succeeded in the chronological order! Here is what I have done:
\definelist[chron][criterium=all,alternative=c]
At the back of the book:
\placelist[chron][criterium=all]
Then at an appropriate point after each \startchapter I have placed (as
an example):
\writetolist[chron]{}{{\bf 29 April 2017,} Speech, Panama City}
This gives me my list, but in page number order. How do I get the date
(e.g. 29 April 2017) to be the ordering factor in the list. I assume it
will be something to do with criterium, but am clueless at the moment on
how to indicate this.
I don’t know if it works this way (the wizards will know a way), but for
special needs I’m (ab)using indexes:
just add something like \index[2017-04-29]{Speech, Panama City} to your
chapter command and setup the index at will.

Whenever I've had odd results like this it's been the result of an accumulation of 'small' errors. For example, I once had a missing } in a macro in an environment file. For whatever reason, it didn't trigger an immediate end to the compilation run and a product with one or two components (using that environment) didn't trigger odd behaviour. But once all components were included then the odd behaviours started happening. — Bruce Horrocks Hampshire, UK ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net ___

Take the file that is not working. Comment out as much as possible,
but so that you still have something that gives unexpected output. A
sample file that gives correct output is not so easy to help from.

Hi,
I was cleaning and formatting my context file and then when I compiled it, the

was how I called one of the key-value argument in the document.
I really wanna know the reason why it did influenced the output?
Provided below is the minimal source code (and it is producing different
outputs, meaning the vertical spacings are not same, on my device running the
version released in the September and also tested with the latest release.)
"""
%% differences in outputs, for how "grid=yes" is called.
%% Type 1.
%\setuplayout[grid=yes]
Here you set the grid variable to "yes".
%% Type 2.
%\setuplayout[

Here you set the grid variable to "yes " so a trailing space.
\setuphead[section][grid=low] %% needed to observe the output difference

So this is ok:
\setupfoo
[a=A,
b=B]
\setupfoo
[a=A,
b=B,

I'm not aware of funmdamental changes in the parse, apart from that in
many setup commands one can now do this:
\setupfoo
[A=\this[works],
B=\that[doestoo]]
as nested brackets are handled.

Interesting. I’ll try and extend it to include the sans and mono styles.
I’m not sure which version will be more readable in the end. My Lua
function to determine the font file name is a bit convoluted indeed.

Ok. But then that means that the designsizes table will be used all the
time, including when design sizes are disabled, right? Which would mean
that I _must_ define the regular size as a fallback.
I'm not sure if we can talk of design sizes here. It's more about
'usage' because a display vs subhead vs ... variant is not about mixing
depending on scale (e.g. using display for 20 pt in a 15 pt setup versus
using scaled regular for 20pt and then display 20pt for e.g. a title
page or 50pt on posters).
I think I see your point. I think we can still talk about design sizes
but, instead of thinking in absolute sizes, we would want to think in
sizes relative to the font setup.
That is, instead of saying ‘Caption shall be used for sizes 6.5pt and
below, SmText for 9.5pt and below etc.’, we would want to say ‘Caption
shall be used for 50% of the body font size and below, SmText for 75%
and below, etc.’
This way, design sizes would be used ‘harmoniously’ no matter the
scaling. A poster, for instance, would usually be viewed at such a
distance that the apparent size of small text (typeset at, say, 25pt
when the main text is at 50pt, therefore using Caption) would match the
apparent size of caption text in a regular document typeset at 12pt and
read from a normal distance.
Make sense?
As a corollary: Does the design sizes mechanism used in goodies file
allow to use relative sizes?

The very same code works fine when included in a normal document though.
Could it be that typescripts are processed in some special mode that
doesn’t like Lua syntax? As a workaround, I put the code in an external
file and require it from inside the typescript.
In the goodies file, I use what I believe is the largest possible font
size that can be used in ConTeXt (16,383pt) to select the Display design
size. Otherwise, text above that size will fall back to the default,
regular design size.
Now, since I use the goodies file only when design sizes are enabled, I
thought I could make it more robust by using AdobeSource4Display as a
default, that is, for any size above 16.5pt. However, if I mix design
sizes enabled and disabled in a document, the disabled one seems to be
using the goodies file even though it’s not mentioned in the typescript.
Any idea of why? For example:
\usetypescriptfile[adobesource]
\usebodyfont[adobesource]
\setupbodyfont[adobesource-nodesignsize]
\starttext
This text is typeset in Display when Regular should be used.
\switchtobodyfont[adobesource]
This text is typeset in Regular with design sizes enabled.
\stoptext

For example, MuPDF, SumatraPDF and Chrome/Edge don’t care about /EmbeddedFiles or annotation borders. MuPDF may access to the embedded file only to save its contents from /FileAttachment. Again, it has to be saved first, to be opened and displayed then. No matter whether the file is actually a PDF document. SumatraPDF follows the same path, but it doesn’t seem to enable saving attachments in its latest stable release. I know there is no way to have it all. But at least in the case of attachments, I think it is clear that (what to some viewers seeems to be) new functionality has to be implemented. As for the users, sorry to disagree with you, Hans, we need a decent viewer (and I’m not an Acrobat user at home). I mean, a viewer that implements the required features (by the document creator or their recipients).

The authors are usually given as “Bettina and Gisela von Arnim” (mother

[NTG-context] Re: XML: flush to lua function
Hi,
xml.text(t) is safer than directly accessing t.dt[1].
Note: you may need to strip some XML tags from that content.
If the element is not straight-up data but has nested elements, then this will
return the full xml representation instead:
A short title=> ‘A short title'
A short title=> ‘'
A short title => 'A short
title'
Best wishes,
Taco

[NTG-context] Re: Building luametatex with Lua symbols exposed
On Wed Aug 30, 2023 at 6:23 PM CEST, Jairo A. del Rio wrote:

Hi Jairo,
you need to expose _dynamic_ symbols in your luametatex binary. If you
are using Linux, just adding the following to the CMake invocation line
should work:
-DCMAKE_EXECUTABLE_ENABLE_EXPORTS=1
For example, I compiled with:
cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
-DCMAKE_EXECUTABLE_ENABLE_EXPORTS=1
cmake --build build -j10
You can check the difference in dynamic symobls with:
readelf --dyn-syms build/luametatex
Note, that while this approach doesn't require any modification to
luametatex's source files, it does export _all_ symbols, which makes
binaries bigger, and symbol resolution slower. It also exports also
symbols that are not intended to be used by external modules, like
"tex_get_x_token".
Back when luametatex source code wasn't available, I created a demo
which showed how to build a "luametatex like application" (i.e.
executable with Lua statically linked in), with exported dynamic
symbols, working with CMake on both Unix and Windows. It might interest
you:
https://github.com/vlasakm/lua-demo
To support Windows in the case of luametatex, "#define LUA_BUILD_AS_DLL"
would need to be added when compiling Lua.
The problem with any module is, that you want to compile against exactly
the same Lua headers as the ones in luametatex, and with similar flags.
That is why the demo hosts everything in one CMake setup, but since
Lua's API hopefully doesn't change in the 5.4 series, you are probably
fine even with separate compilation.
IIRC stripping (LMT_STRIP) applies only to static symbols ("symbols")
and not the dynamic ones ("dynamic symbols"), and thus should be
irrelevant.
It seems that people had similar issues before:
https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg97764.html
https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg98184.html
I think it would be nice to support this "by default", but in that case,
the binary size would have to be addressed, and only the "supported"
public API of luametatex actually exposed. Support of this could also be
behind a compile time switch, but I am not sure how useful would that
be.

Hm.. There are a few others, Minion perhaps being the most popular and
extensive. More below:
"at some point the decision was made to kick out these definitions and move the
burden of figuring out the right size to Lua."
They were moved to the goodie file (there are every few design size
setups in goodie files, minion has one, but i don't have these fonts nor
use them.
Have just completed a minion-pro-opticals typescript collection with a
minion-opticalsizes.lfg.
Somehow I didn't even see yours and Mathias' minion.lfg (and associated
type-imp-minion) until just now, had to figure it all out from scratch from
demo.lfg and lm.lfg templates -)
(OTOH, had previously seen yours and Mikael's sophisticated minion-math.lfg)
I think that my version is/will be more complete - except for mathematics. Once
some fine-tuning and additional testing is done, will donate the results to
ConTeXt.
(Thus some large typescript collections painstakingly built over the years are
now obsolete and have to be rewritten. Oh well..)
Well, i suppose one can still setup/use the typescripts but it's less
fun. The old definefont mechanism is still there.
Unfortunately it doesn't work anymore - or at least not the way it used to. My
mkiv minion typescript collection, for example, still compiles in lmtx, but the
design sizes do not show up in the output anymore, only the default size.
As a side note: we have design sizes (very few fonts) and weights (more
and more fonts) .. weights are imo an even bigger mess, as it looks like
some designers can't make up their mind and come with plenty weights
independent of the fact that some look bad; variable fonts only add to
this: the easier to use the creater tools become the easier it becomes
to make ugly fonts (I tend to ignore fonts that show off too many
possible choices; not much different from excessive kerning, ligatures
and other incomplete features).
You make an important point, especially about the proliferation of bad fonts
via more accessible tools. On a related front, there are more and more
Arabic-script fonts, but hardly anything really good or useable, even from
reputable foundries like Adobe. At some point, presumably, designers quit early
(or the company does not care to invest the needed time and funds).
Presumably, designing good optical sizes requires more care and subtlety than
designing weights.
OTOH the more professional/high-end foundries sometimes recommend certain
weights for optical-sizes. For example, your neighbors at Enschede:
http://www.teff.nl/fonts/geronimo/
"While Geronimo was mainly conceived as a typeface for (small) text, it also
performs well at bigger sizes most notably the lighter weights.”"
There are 12 weights total (six regular + six italic), but the lighter weights
are designed to work well at larger sizes. So from 12 fonts one can create a
reasonable, combined optical-size and weight space.
(Speaking of Enschede, their Lexicon typeface use an interesting/unique
optical-size concept.)
One thing about the explosion of weights is that the distinction between \tf
and \bf (or \it and \bi) vanishes and becomes a spectrum. In that case,
presumably one would
i) forget about \bf and \bi
ii) multiply bodyfont-typefaces and switch directly between them as needed.
Etc.
If this appearance of a loss reflects the reality of the situation, would like
to kindly request that the original functionality be restored to the
higher-level user interface, presumably within the lfg file. So perhaps
something like a keyval
fallbacks = {
["MyRomanRegular"] = {
"file:MyFont-Small" = "fallbacks=",
"file:MyFont-Regular", = "fallbacks=",
"file:MyFont-Bigger", = "fallbacks=",
"file:MyFont-Biggest", = "fallbacks=",
},
On the other hand, if access to the former functionality is still there
somewhere in the user interface, would like to humbly request that someone
share where it is and how to use it!
Thank you kindly for consideration of this request.
I'm not going to look into this until there is a complete test case for
this which means:
- free fonts (so that others can also test and use)
- design sizes
- fallback design sizes
As for free fonts. MinionPro Opticals should be considered an exception to the
free-fonts rubric. After all,
i) its multiple-master design base was inspired by MetaFont/Knuth, and hence
ii) it's very popular with TeXies.
Put another way, Minion Pro should be considered an honorary TeX typeface -)

It seems that displaystyle fractions insert extra vertical space before the

With textstyle fractions, the code works fine.
\blank[back,overlay] can get rid of the gap above the first row, but not

[a,two]
[margin=2cm,
before=\blank[overlay,-depth]]

[NTG-context] Re: Fallbacks for design sizes in the current typescripts regime
On 8/22/2023 6:31 AM, Hamid,Idris wrote:
Dear gang,
Design sizes for typefaces -- aka "optical sizes" -- are no longer directly
implemented in typescripts. From the manual Fonts out of ConTeXt by Hans Hagen, p. 109:
You can still do it but for all these years only cm has design sizes so
one can wonder.

They were moved to the goodie file (there are every few design size

(Thus some large typescript collections painstakingly built over the years are
now obsolete and have to be rewritten. Oh well..)
Well, i suppose one can still setup/use the typescripts but it's less
fun. The old definefont mechanism is still there.
As a side note: we have design sizes (very few fonts) and weights (more
and more fonts) .. weights are imo an even bigger mess, as it looks like
some designers can't make up their mind and come with plenty weights
independent of the fact that some look bad; variable fonts only add to
this: the easier to use the creater tools become the easier it becomes
to make ugly fonts (I tend to ignore fonts that show off too many
possible choices; not much different from excessive kerning, ligatures
and other incomplete features).
But there is an issue in the new regime:
In the old system, every typescript mapping to a font within a design-size
range could have its own fallback. For example:
% Small ="small point size"
% Regular = "regular point size"
% Bigger = "bigger point size"
% Biggest = "biggest point size"
\definefontsynonym [MyRomanRegular]
[file:MyFont-Regular.ttf] [features=,fallbacks=]
\definefontsynonym [MyRomanSmall]
[file:MyFont-Small.ttf] [features=,fallbacks=]
\definefontsynonym [MyRomanBigger]
[file:MyFont-Bigger.ttf] [features=,fallbacks=]
\definefontsynonym [MyRomanBiggest]
[file:MyFont-Biggest.ttf] [features=,fallbacks=]
In the new typescripts regime we keep one font from the design-size range in
the typescript file; the rest of the optical sizes go into an lfg goodies file:
\definefontsynonym [MyRomanRegular]
\loadfontgoodies[myfonts-opticalsizes] % other three fonts go into an lfg
table
[file:MyFont-Regular.ttf] [features=,fallbacks=]
designsizes = {
["MyRomanRegular"] = {
["7pt"] = "file:MyFont-Small",
["8pt"] = "file:MyFont-Small",
["9pt"] = "file:MyFont-Regular",
["10pt"]= "file:MyFont-Regular",
["11pt"]= "file:MyFont-Regular",
["12pt"]= "file:MyFont-Bigger",
["14pt"]= "file:MyFont-Bigger",
["17pt"]= "file:MyFont-Biggest",
["21pt"]= "file:MyFont-Biggest",
default = "file:MyFont-Regular",
},
But there is an apparent drawback to this new way of doing things: It appears
that only the default font can have an explicit fallback, and there appears
that there is no straightforward way to map each of the other design sizes to
its own fallback.
If there is indeed no way to map each non-default design size to a fallback,
then that constitutes a significant/unfortunate loss of functionality in the
user interface.
If this appearance of a loss reflects the reality of the situation, would like
to kindly request that the original functionality be restored to the
higher-level user interface, presumably within the lfg file. So perhaps
something like a keyval
fallbacks = {
["MyRomanRegular"] = {
"file:MyFont-Small"= "fallbacks=",
"file:MyFont-Regular", = "fallbacks=",
"file:MyFont-Bigger", = "fallbacks=",
"file:MyFont-Biggest", = "fallbacks=",
},
On the other hand, if access to the former functionality is still there
somewhere in the user interface, would like to humbly request that someone
share where it is and how to use it!
Thank you kindly for consideration of this request.
I'm not going to look into this until there is a complete test case for
this which means:
- free fonts (so that others can also test and use)
- design sizes
- fallback design sizes
Of course one can have some abstract fallback defined using the
"MyFont-Small" namespace where the files used get remapped too as one
goes. A bit like we do with the gyre fonts where we share definitions.

[NTG-context] Re: Nested itemize
It’s true that \vtop{…} does the job for a single line of items, but it doesn’t
in the case there’re multiple (\vtop{}) aligns with the bottom.
Here’s a modified MWE
\startitemize[n][style=\bf]
\item \godown[-\lineheight] \startitemize
[a,columns,two,packed,broad][stopper=),before={\blank[nowhite]}]
\item $6(x - \dfrac{5}{12})^2 - \dfrac{1}{24}$
\item $-3(x - \dfrac{1}{3})^2 + \dfrac{1}{3}$
\item $7(x + \dfrac{5}{14})^2 + \dfrac{199}{28}$
\item $-\dfrac{1}{2}(x + 2)^2 + \dfrac{9}{2}$

[NTG-context] Low res output possible?
Hi Julian,
I had the same question a couple of days ago and I found a thread on the
mailing list, which I'm reposting here. Although this worked for me, I found
downsampling of the pdf with gs more convenient.
Hope this helps,
Benjamin

Dear ConTeXt users,
Time goes by but I haven't yet found a nice solution to this issue. When
having mathematics, I'd not like to adjust by hand the factor of \linewidth
for the \godown command.
Here's a MWE
\starttext
\startitemize[n][style=\bf]
\item \godown[-\lineheight] \startitemize
[a,columns,four,packed,broad][stopper=),before={\blank[nowhite]}]
\item $6(x - \dfrac{5}{12})^2 - \dfrac{1}{24}$
\item $-3(x - \dfrac{1}{3})^2 + \dfrac{1}{3}$
\item $7(x + \dfrac{5}{14})^2 + \dfrac{199}{28}$
\item $-\dfrac{1}{2}(x + 2)^2 + \dfrac{9}{2}$
\stopitemize
\stopitemize
\stoptext
Thanks in advance.

Yes, I have done that. But I don't seem to have the basic context of how
the processing works in order. All I have so far is this as a starting

\xmlregistersetup{xml:mysetup}

\xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups
\startxmlsetups xml:mysetup:mdata
\xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups
\startxmlsetups xml:mysetup:tdata

\stopxmlsetups
\startxmlsetups xml:mysetup:name

There are a lot of commands there that should help you, such as
\xmldoiftext {#1} {/mdata/date}
{\bf \xmlflush {#1}}
or \xmldoifelsetext.
There's also \xmlfilter, which you can use to test for the content of
tags. And of course, you can process in Lua and search for strings or
use lpeg. However, your question is a bit vague now. Show us some code
you have and we can take it from there; that's easier than writing the
whole setup for you.

How can I process the s differently? The first element
contains a tag and so it differs from the other ones. The
second element's tag contains the word "Header" which makes it
different again. The other elements contain a tag
that they all have in common.
What could be the appropriate xml setups to generate the above output?

2. Is it OK to use \startuserdata \stopuserdata without its inlineuserdata?
Is there an alternative that does not require inlineuserdata?
Weird is relative. Just use what you like most. One could for instance
use the publication mechanism but you need to set up a bit more (see
manual for example of usa as database).
Now datasets. It is not hard to add a size query so I added that. Your

There is no need to use userdata as intermediate:

% \dontleavehmode

% {\datasetvariable{autores}{\recurselevel}{nombre}}
% \quad
% \datasetvariable{autores}{\recurselevel}{nombre}\par
% \stopsetups
Just loop over the set and call up the variables in the setup:
% \startdocument
% \dorecurse{\datasetsize{autores}}{
% \setups[userdata:idautor]
% }
% \stopdocument
However, i can provide a processor:

% {\externalfigure[cvlac.pdf][logo]}
% {\datasetvariable{autores}{\datasetindex}{vclac}}

% {\externalfigure[gscholar.pdf][logo]}
% {\datasetvariable{autores}{\datasetindex}{nombre}}
% \quad
% \datasetvariable{autores}{\datasetindex}{nombre}\par
% \stopsetups
As we know what dataset we process:
\startsetups[userdata:idautor]
\dontleavehmode
\imghref
{\externalfigure[cvlac.pdf][logo]}
{\datasetentry{vclac}}
\quad
\imghref

{\datasetentry{orcid}}
\quad
\imghref

{\datasetentry{nombre}}
\quad
\datasetentry{nombre}
\par
\stopsetups
We then end up with:
\startdocument
\processdataset[autores][userdata:idautor]
\stopdocument
I'll mail you the patch. Copy it to the right place and remake the format.

I use the following for a notes chapter at the end of a book. It
produces headings that indicate the pages for which the notes apply.
Perhaps you can adapt it to your needs:
In the environment file:
\definemarking [notePage] \startsetups noteHeadingsText {\em
Notes for page
\doifelse{\fetchmark[notePage][top]}{\fetchmark[notePage][bottom]}
{ \getmarking[notePage][top]} {s
\getmarking[notePage][top]–\getmarking[notePage][bottom]}}
\stopsetups \startsetups noteHeadings:on
\setupheadertexts[][\setups{noteHeadingsText}]
[\setups{noteHeadingsText}][] \stopsetups
In the text:
\startbackmatter \startchapter[reference={cha:notes},
list={Notes}, % toc bookmark={Notes}, % pdf bookmark
title={Notes}] % chapter head [Lettrine=no]
\setups{noteHeadings:on} \placenotes[endnote] \stopchapter

[NTG-context] Map XML attributes to variables, dynamically
Hello!
A Markdown document resembles the following:
::: {.concurrent title="Berth 5" location="San Diego"}
Text Goes Here
:::
::: {.concurrent title="Road" location="Beale AFB"}
Different Text Goes Here
:::
The XHTML generated from that document resembles:
Text Goes Here
Different Text Goes Here
Environments for the DIV element gets translated using:
\startxmlsetups xml:div
\start[\xmlatt{#1}{class}]\xmlflush{#1}\stop
\stopxmlsetups
This creates "\startconcurrent" and "\stopconcurrent", which are later
defined using "\definestartstop[concurrent]".
I'd like to dynamically define all the data- attributes to make key/value
pairs accessible from the document. For example, I have this:
\definestartstop[concurrent][
before={%
\blank[big]%
\setMPtext{1}{Berth 5}%
\startTextConcurrentFrame},
after={\stopTextConcurrentFrame\blank[big]},
]
I'd like to replace \setMPText calls with a reference to a dynamically
created variable reference. For example:
\setMPtext{1}{\usermap[concurrent.title]}
\setMPtext{2}{\usermap[concurrent.location]}
I can verify the attribute values exist by exporting them to the document:
\startxmlsetups xml:div
title:\xmlatt{#1}{data-title} location:\xmlatt{#1}{data-location}
\start[\xmlatt{#1}{class}]\xmlflush{#1}\stop
\stopxmlsetups
How would you change the xml:div setup to create a map of its attributes as
key/value pairs?
Thank you!

Hi,
I uploaded a new lmtx. There are some new features that wil be revealed
in the future (likely after the meeting) but here is one:
\starttext
\defineoverlay
[test]
[\color
[blue]
{TEST
\inframed
[foregroundcolor=red]
{xxx}
TEST}]
\framed
[background=test,
foregroundstyle=\switchtobodyfont[small]]
{test}
\stoptext
From now on many commands accept (properly) nested [] inside commands
that use [] as fences (like the setup commands) where it makes sense. It
is up to the user to decide to use {} (as before) or not but it is less
error prone.
It is now also possible to nest setups as in
\starttext
\startsetups one
\startsetups [three]
HERE
\stopsetups
\stopsetups
\startsetups two
\startsetups [three]
THERE
\stopsetups
\stopsetups
\setups[one] \setups[three]
\setups[two] \setups[three]
\stoptext
As part of the ongoing improvements on math rendering we added some
classic lm/cm kerns (between upperacse and periods / commas) in the
goodie files.
Some lowlevel manuals have been extended, explaining experimental 'named
cross macro nesting parameter referencing' and 'constrained cq. retained
assignments', but that is only relevant for those interested in
overcoming some limitations in the traditional engines.

[NTG-context] Re: Bibliography cite
Indeed, one does not need the comma, it is programmed in the style.
You can see this in the manual, on p. 43 documenting citations.
The style is setup to put the righttext inside the parenthesis for
alternative=authoryear and outside of the year parenthesis for
alternative=authoryears.
I looked carefully in the APA Style Guide and did not find any
suggestion that one should use Knuth (1984, p. 3). The variant (Knuth,
1984, p. 3) is documented.
You can make the following changes (untested)
\setupbtx [apa:cite:author:years] [right=]
\setupbtx [apa:cite:authoryears] [right={)}]
to get the other behavior.

If I leave out the first comma, the result is: Knuth (1984), p. 3
Righttext probably refers to the text outside the parentheses.

Using the APA specification:

you can then
\cite[alternative=authoryears,righttext={{, p.\nbsp 12}}] [Knuth1984]
mentions ….
The tricky part concerning righttext= is the double {{ }}, needed
because the text contains a comma. The reason for this is simple, as
righttext is a comma-separated list, where each entry corresponds to a
cited reference, as in \cite[righttext={a,b}] [ref1,ref2]
so a is associated with ref1 and b is associated with ref2.

Dear List members,
For my academic work with context I need the following cite according

The matrix is this:

I reckon this can somehow be accomplished with the \setupbtx command.

I tried different setups: \setupbtx[apa:cite:authoryear], and

righttext and other options, but none of them give the desired result.
Thank you for any suggestions.

[NTG-context] Re: Par Builder Tests
Hraban's suggestion works really well. I setup hyphenation rules for the underfull boxes of Russian names and reduced the \tolerance to 600. I'm now down to about 20 underfull boxes which to my eyes look fine.

Hi Keith, since both cases are caused by names with accents, did you try to add hyphenation exceptions for those? Such cases are probably not covered by English hyphentation rules.
