For what I understand
\placegrafik[btlr]{none}{\externalfigure[foo][width=1.95\textwidth]}
and columnset with n=3 are not compatible.
I mean
1.95\textwidth and n=3 are not compatible

In mkii your \subject disappear, in mkiv no but things changes with
1.92\textwidth
whiel with 1.0\textwidth things go well.
I'm not surprised because columnsets must be carefully managed .

I thought you wanted to place this fig in a span of two columns, but I
was wrong -- sorry.

 Sorry, but I won't consider a »feature working properly only under some

I disagree here.
In columnsets I always  exactly specify what  I want to do, to avoid surprise.
For example in your situation I  use width=1.0\textwidth, because
\placegrafik[btlr]{none}{\externalfigure[foo][width=1.95\textwidth]}
is a non-sense for me: I cannot  put a figure large 1.95\textwidth in
a column large \textwidth.
If I need  to do so, then I must reserve a span in a some way.

Yes, but the 1.95\textwidth was just a remainder of my experiments with
the width to see where the problem occurs and where not.  It occurs with
width=2\textwidth, too, as well as with lines=19.  And the latter two
one make sense.

And no, I don't want to put a figure 2 columns wide in a single column.
I want it to spawn over two columns.

 If I need  to do so, then I must reserve a span in a some way.

According to http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/columns.pdf (page
16ff.) it is perfectly okay to do the way I did.

That's what the directive btlr is for: flush from bottom to top and left
to right.

It's a documented feature, and it's not working properly (at least from
what I see).  I call this a bug.

Yes can be but
I don't  mix  code from chapter Graphics with code from chapter Areas,
so until now my code has  worked as expected.
(I usually work with Area, so this is why I 've said that
1.95\textwidth is non-sense)
This works for example in mkiv and mkii ,so I suspect some not-so-good
interaction between Area and Chapter,
but I still disagree to call it a bug because typesetting in columns
is always hard in TeX, so maybe it's a feature that
you need but it's not still implemented .
Of course more examples can be usefuls in this sense.

My experience says
0) keep start/stopcolumnset as small as possible to flush on a regular basis
and
1) use material from chapter Graphics
xor
2) use material from chapter Area
xor
3) Are you sure that I don't Indesign instead ?

[NTG-context] ConTeXt swallows text

2010-01-19 Thread Oliver Heins
Hi,

under certain circumstances, ConTeXt swallows text.  This happens with
both MkII and MkIV and a fairly recent minimals distribution.

| ConTeXt  ver: 2009.11.24 10:13 MKII  fmt: 2009.11.25  int: english/english
| ConTeXt  ver: 2009.11.24 10:13 MKIV  fmt: 2009.11.25  int: english/english

Sadly, I noticed not until the booklet was already printed.  (Actually,
it was my customer who noticed.)  :-(

Hi Luigi,

luigi scarso luigi.sca...@gmail.com writes:

 Why nx=6 

Because of the layout of the booklet.  The area should fit over two
pages (= 6 columns).

 and width=1.95\textwidth ?

I played around with the width to see if the problem still happens.  For
some reason, I stuck with 1.95\textwidth.  In my original setup, I had
lines=19 :-)

 What about this ? 

That's a completely different layout.  You can find the relevant pages
of the booklet at http://sopos.org/olli/armut-fail.pdf

Regards,
 olli

ok

You can find the relevant pages
 of the booklet at http://sopos.org/olli/armut-fail.pdf

If I understand well, you want
an automatic solution
instead of a manual solution like this one

 \defineoverlay [foregraphics]
[{\externalfigure[cow][width=5.8\textwidth,lines=41]}]
 \defineoverlay [backgraphics]
[{\externalfigure[mill][width=2\textwidth,lines=20]}]

   \definecolumnset[ergebnisse][n=3]
   \definecolumnsetarea
   [title][left]
   
[x=1,y=1,nx=6,ny=42,page=2,state=start,background={backgraphics,foreground,foregraphics}]

   \setupcolumnsetareatext[title][left][{%
\ruledhbox to \dimexpr 6\textwidth+2\backspace+1cm\relax{\raggedright
\ruledvbox to 41\lineheight{\hsize=1.6\textwidth {\bfd 1}
\dorecurse{3}{ \input knuth }}
\hskip0.5em
\ruledvbox to 41\lineheight{\hsize=1.6\textwidth {\bfd 2}
\dorecurse{3}{ \input knuth }}
\hskip\backspace
\ruledvbox to 41\lineheight{\hsize=1.6\textwidth {\bfd 3}
\dorecurse{3}{ \input knuth }}
\hskip0.5em
\ruledvbox to 41\lineheight{\hsize=1.6\textwidth {\bfd 4}
\dorecurse{3}{ \input knuth }}
}
}]
