Re: [NTG-context] maths simplifying fractions
sorry for the slow reply, a cold knocked me out. Thanks Henri for pointing to a solution you already offered on stackexchange! I will save it as a good universal solution. Thanks to Kitz, for the very specific solution. This is what I am using at the moment. This might help. > https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/501056/equivalent-of-cancelto-in-context > > > ___ 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://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
[NTG-context] maths simplifying fractions
Hi Altoff.
Maybe this markup will help?
\startuniqueMPgraphic{cancel}
pickup pencircle scaled 0.7pt ;
path p ; p := OverlayBox topenlarged -ExHeight bottomenlarged -ExHeight ;
draw llcorner p -- urcorner p withcolor OverlayColor ;
\stopuniqueMPgraphic
\defineoverlay[cancel][\uniqueMPgraphic{cancel}]
\defineframed[cancel]
[background=cancel,frame=off,offset=0pt,location=low]
\starttext
\startformula
6 \frac{3}{8} \div 4 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{27}{4} \div \frac{9}{2} =
\frac{\cancel{27}^3}{\cancel{4}^2} \times \frac{\cancel{2}^1}{\cancel{9}^1} =
\frac{3}{2} = 1 \frac{1}{2}
\stopformula
\stoptext
HTH,
kitz

[NTG-context] maths simplifying fractions
Hi all, I am writing some maths exercises that include simplifying fractions.
For that
reason I would like to cross out some numbers. Unfortunately overstrike doesn't
do the
trick, eg with a 4 the overstrike is practically invisible.
Is there any way to get a diagonal stroke like the latex module "cancel" can do?
Thanks for any suggestions,
Martin
