by Marco Patzer 30 Aug '12

Hi, in the following example the AAAs disappear. Column sets without float and floats without column sets work fine. \definecolumnset [Columns] [n=2] \starttext \startcolumnset [Columns] AAA \startplacefigure [title=Some figure] \stopplacefigure BBB \stopcolumnset \stoptext Marco

t-letter: marking=no not disabling folding marks
by Paul Menzel 29 Aug '12

29 Aug '12

Dear ConTeXt folks, although looking at tex/texmf-modules/tex/context/third/letter/base/s-cor-01.mkvi on how to disable folding marks, I was unsuccessful to figure it out. This is with ConTeXt ver: 2012.08.28 20:00 MKIV fmt: 2012.8.29 int: english/english and please consider the following minimal example. \mainlanguage[de] \usemodule[letter] \starttext \setupletter [fromname={Max Musterfrau}, fromaddress={Beispielstraße 99\\99999 Musterstadt}] \setupletter [toname={Jane Mustermann}, toaddress={Musterstrarße 9999\\99999 Musterstadt}] \setupletterstyle [marking=no] \setupletter [marking=no] \startletter [opening={Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,}, subject={Musterbetreff}, closing={Freundliche Grüße,}, signature={Max Musterfrau}] \input knuth \stopletter \stoptext Thanks, Paul

Is it posslible to use remotely loaded image in PDF?
by Rostislav Wolný 29 Aug '12

29 Aug '12

Hello all, I'm just wondering if it is possible to create PDF document which contains image (link to image) which is downloaded from the Internet and displayed at the moment when PDF is opened? Maybe it is not possible because some security reasons. I've spent hours googling it, but without satisfying answer (may be I'm just lame). Thanks a lot for answer. Rosta

Vertical alignment in Natural tables
by Aditya Mahajan 27 Aug '12

27 Aug '12

Hi, How do I set the vertical alignment of cells in natural tables? I remember that \setupTABLE[align={middle,middle}] used to set center align vertically and horizontally. Currently, \setupTABLE[align={middle,high}] and \setupTABLE[align={middle,low}] work as expected, but \setupTABLE[align={middle,middle}] does not work. I also tried \setupTABLE[location={low}] (or lohi, or middle), but the calculation of height is wrong in those cases. Minimal example: \startsetups table \setupTABLE[align={middle,middle}] \stopsetups \starttext \startTABLE[setups=table] \NC Ward \NC \input ward \endgraf \NC \NR \stopTABLE \stoptext Aditya

bugs in linenote?
by Pablo Rodríguez 27 Aug '12

27 Aug '12

Hi there, I have the following sample: \definelinenote[A] \setupnote[A][rule=off, paragraph=yes, split=strict, inbetween=\hskip1.5em] \setupnotation[A][numbercommand=,alternative=serried,distance=1em,compress=yes,compressseparator=] \starttext \startlinenumbering \dorecurse{500}{body\A{note} } \stoplinenumbering \stoptext I'm afraid it shows to bugs with latest beta. The first one is that there is no proper separation between body and notes. The second one is that when no compressseparator is set, there is a wrong blank space at the beginning of the line. Can anyone confirm whether they are real bugs or I am doing something wrong? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Your advice solves one problem but adds another: now the section numbers are included as well. How do I get rid of these? See example: \setupcaption[figure][way=bychapter,prefix=yes] \starttext \completelistoffigures \dorecurse{2} {\chapter{Chapter #1} \input knuth\par \dorecurse{2} {\section{Section #1} \input knuth\par \placefigure{Caption}{\externalfigure[dummy]} \input knuth\par}} \stoptext (I'm sorry for the error in the nested \dorecurse with the section titles but the problem will be clear.) Thanks in advance. Kind regards, Robert

Numbering of figures and tables changed?
by Robert Blackstone 26 Aug '12

26 Aug '12

Dear list, In the book/thesis I am typesetting the many figures (Examples) and the few tables must be numbered per chapter, (Ex. 1.3, Ex. 4.17 etc) and they should appear like this in the List of Examples. Up to around 27 july this worked perfectly, automatically I should say, but with a newer version of mkiv (25 august) they come out numbered for the book as a whole and without chapter numbers. I have not changed the setups, and I can reproduce the correct result with an older version of mkiv (may) with a slightly adapted environment file. Unfortunately I do need some recent features of mkiv. The setups for the floats are: \definefloat[Example][examples] \setupfloat[Example][spacebefore=medium,spaceafter=medium,sidespacebefore=medium,sidespaceafter=medium] \setupcaption[Example][location=top,number=yes,inbetween=\blank,bodyfont=10pt] \setuplabeltext[en][Example=Ex.~] \definefloat[table][tables] \setupfloat[table][spacebefore=medium,spaceafter=medium,sidespacebefore=medium,sidespaceafter=medium] \setupcaption[table][location=top,number=yes,inbetween=\blank,bodyfont=10pt]\setuplabeltext[en][table=Table~] I tried [way=bychapter] as an argument for the captions but that did not change anything' What can I do to give me back the numbering of the floats per chapter? Or, if it is a bug in the recent Minimals, can the numbering per chapter be restored somehow? Thanks in advance. Best regards, Robert
