[NTG-context] viewer magnification in full screen (/OpenAction)

You can save a copy of the page in a box and print the collection of all boxes
at the end of the document.
\newcount\sectionpage
\installpagehandler{sectionpage}%

\global\expandafter\newbox\csname sectionpage:\number\sectionpage\endcsname

Thanks a lot! I think that I will be able to tweak this to get overview
slides.

{\externalfigure[\jobname][page=page-number-of-first-section]}{}
{\externalfigure[\jobname][page=page-number-of-second-section]}{}

I tried a simple test case

but that does not include the first page. So, I think that what I want is
not possible, but I wonder if others have different ideas on how this

something similar without the need for a separate tex file).

[NTG-context] What color is screen?
Hello,
a half-philosophical question (not too relevant).
I was wondering: what color exactly is the screen
(\framed[background=screen]{...})? Or is it a special effect maybe?
I know that using it has long been deprecated, but I used it in many
older documents as it was easiest to remember without having to think
what shade of gray to use to make the highlights in document come out
nice.
But I just figured out that it became invisible on my screen. One can
still see it very very faintly if computer screen is under some weird
angle, but a normal glimpse shows nothing. When printed it usually
comes out with a rather high contrast. (It may be that I have just
changed screen contrast by accident.)
I was trying to find the revent line with color, but I don't find it. I noticed
grph-fig.mkii: \c!backgroundscreen=.8,
but 0.8 is definitely higher that used in documents by default.
Thanks,
Mojca

screen are gray scales, e.g. gray is defined as \definecolor[gray][s=.9]
and backgroundscreen was a mechanism to change the s value without
defining
a new color value

in this case it would be convient to add \definecolor[screen][s=.95]

I was thinking about that as well. Having a screen color would be
nice for those who got used to the old name.
Mojca
In the meantime I figured it out what has happened with the screen
color on my display. TextMate uses Alt-Command-. for auto-completion
of \stopwhatevercommandhasbeenstarted in ConTeXt (an extremely
useful feature).
But Mac uses Ctrl-Alt-Command-. to increase the contrast of display.
So apparently I accidentally hit Ctrl several times without noticing
or bothering (and without knowing how to switch back), but enough to
make 95% white disappear.

[NTG-context] Screen not wanted
I have prepared a movie in one of the presentation styles and set
this ready in the followwing way:
\defineoverlay
[name]
[{\framed[height=\overlayheight, width=\overlaywidth,%
background=color, backgroundcolor=yellow]%
{\midaligned{title text}}}]
\Subject {\renderingmenu[film]\qquad\color[darkgray]{$15^\prime 12$}}
\midaligned{%
\framed[offset=0pt, strut=no, background={foreground,name}]%
{\placerenderingwindow[movie][film]}
}%
The problem is this: In the upper left corner the word Screen is
placed and I cannot get rid of it.
Searching in the sources did not reveal enough to spot a macro
putting it there.
The strange thing is that this happens in both the TeXShop previewer
and in Apple's Preview application but not in the Adobe version 8.1
reader, GraphicConverter and Safari (I am working on MacOSX 10.4.10).
Does someone know its origin?
Does it occur on other PC types as well or is it typical for MacOSX?
Or is it something in the pdf that shows up under certain circumstances?

Re: [NTG-context] Alternating screen/noscreen rows on table
Amazing! But it uses a table writing program I hadn't heard of before. I am printing out a wiki page on natural tables. Is there a manual somewhere? Also www.logosrl.it/context/modules/2007-01-23/core-modu.pdf and look for core-ntb section luigi ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Hi John,
there is http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/enattab.pdf for
natural tables.
You should also look at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TABLE.
To setup the caption (position, layout, numbering) search for
\setupcaption(s) in one of the two manuals (ma-cb-en and cont-en).

[NTG-context] Alternating screen/noscreen rows on table
I am required by my customer to alternate between white and screen backgrounds for each row of a table for all tables, and there are lots of tables. I am considering adding code to each row of the table or else doing the thing in metafun/metapost. Advice, anyone? Just to mess things up further she wants the table number etc. above the table and left justified. I can handle that. The customer is not always right but the customer is always the customer. She who pays the bills calls the shots. -- John Culleton Able Indexing and Typesetting Precision typesetting (tm) at reasonable cost.

[NTG-context] nice winxp sp2 blue screen if rsync
I've tryed using (is that natural?) rsync on win xp (for testing Hans method for updating Contex). It works smooth if you stay away from xp sp2.
