Building fomula
by Willi Egger 25 Mar '23

25 Mar '23

Good afternoon everybody, I should place two faily simple formulae next to each other, they should be coupled by ‘or’. What I have now is, that the formulae indeed are next to each other and separated by ‘or’, but the result of the second formula is moved und this formula to the next line. In the setup of book there would be enough place, if I coud decrease the space left and right of the ‘or’. How can I achieve this? Cheers Willi \starttext \startformulas \startformula[align=right] {\frac{47 \times 62}{44 \times 56}} \times {12} \stopformula \startformula[align=right,width=0.2\textwidth] or \stopformula \startformula[align=right] {{\frac{47 \times 62 \times 12}{44 \times 56}}=14.2 \rm kilo} \stopformula \stopformulas \blank[small] rounded 14 kilo. \stoptext

Bug in searching TTC fonts for the script of mtxrun
by Li Yanrui (李延瑞) 23 Mar '23

Hi Hans, I have already installed some Chinese TTC fonts, e.g. NotoSerifCJK-Regular.ttc. But when I use mtxrun command to search them, I get an error. $ mtxrun --script font --list --file NotoSerifCJK-Regular.ttc lua error : function call: ...e/garfileo/opt/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtxrun.lua:10012: bad argument #9 to 'format' (number expected, got string) -- Best regards, Li Yanrui

building from source
by Rainer J.H. Brandt 21 Mar '23

Dear Context developers, I want to build Context MkXL from source and use that. I went to the download page http://www.pragma-ade.com/download-1.htm and downloaded the 2023-03-20 version: http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/latest/cont-tmf.zip This contains README.adoc which tells me that information can be found on https://wiki.contextgarden.net. I don't find any further information about building from source, either in the dowloaded material, or on the wiki or the pragma-ade.com site. What am I overlooking? Thanks, Rainer -- Rainer J.H.

Problem with \stoptabulate
by Bruce Horrocks 21 Mar '23

21 Mar '23

I have a technical manual style document that requires a lot of examples to be included. They can easily be typeset with a table so I thought I would save myself some typing by defining macros for the various bits of a tabulate table. Thus I have: \def\startMyExample{\starttabulate[|r|c|l|p|]} \def\stopMyExample{\stoptabulate} \def\MyExampleItem#1#2#3{\NC #1 \NC \rightarrow \NC #2 \NC #3 \NC\NR} \starttext Here are some examples... \startMyExample \MyExampleItem{before}{after}{change before into after} \MyExampleItem{straw}{gold}{Rumpelstiltskin} \stopMyExample %\stoptabulate \stoptext The problem is that \stopMyExample doesn't work - the \stoptabulate isn't recognised and I get an end of file reached error. If use a straight \stoptabulate then it works as expected. That's fine but it would be nice, from an aesthetic point of view, to have start & stop 'paired' commands in the source. Presumably some sort of deep ConTeXt fu is going on - can anyone explain it please? Regards, — Bruce Horrocks Hampshire, UK

Hi, Please see the following example: \startTEXpage[offset=5mm] \starttabulate[|c|c|c|] \VL 1 \VL 2 \VL 3\VL\NR \stoptabulate \blank \starttabulate[|c|c|c|] \NC 1 \NC 2 \NC 3\NR \stoptabulate \stopTEXpage In its result, there is a rule in the left side of the second tabulate. The result is attached. My lmtx version is 2023.03.20 17:07. -- Best regards, Li Yanrui

rotated headers in natural tables
by Henning Hraban Ramm 20 Mar '23

20 Mar '23

Hi! In my table, I want the header texts to be 90˚ rotated and aligned to the bottom of their cell. I couldn’t find an option to do that. Tried \dontleavehmode or \hfill in my \RtH macro to no avail. Is it possible? \define[1]{\RtH}{\rotate{#1}} \starttext \setupTABLE[offset=3pt] \setupTABLE[header][background=color,backgroundcolor=yellow,align=bottom] \bTABLE \bTABLEhead \bTR \bTH\RtH{animal}\eTH \bTH\RtH{size}\eTH \bTH\RtH{weight}\eTH \bTH\RtH{average speed}\eTH \eTR \eTABLEhead \bTABLEbody \bTR \bTD sparrow \eTD \bTD small \eTD \bTD light \eTD \bTD high \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD dog \eTD \bTD medium \eTD \bTD medium \eTD \bTD medium \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD snail \eTD \bTD small \eTD \bTD light \eTD \bTD slow \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD elephant \eTD \bTD big \eTD \bTD heavy \eTD \bTD medium \eTD \eTR \eTABLEbody \eTABLE \stoptext Hraban

update
by Hans Hagen 20 Mar '23

20 Mar '23

Hi, I updated LMTX. Most improvements are in 'math' as Mikael and I keep mailing down some details that bother us. We also have some updates in the math fonts that Daniel Flipo maintains so the repertoire of alternatives with all-right math support grows. As a side note: lmtx installs nicely on my android (12) phone (userland ubuntu) and luametatex compiles nicely from source (as it's aarch64) in about a minute. No decent editor to text real documents but who knows what a properly dockable (linux supporting) phone can do in a few years. A simple \starttext \dorecurse{1000}{\samplefile{tufte}\par} \stoptext runs at over 55 pps (85 pps on my laptop). Making a format takes 4 seconds (second time, after caching, which is about twice the time my laptop takes).
