expansion of xml userdata
by Jano Kula 17 Jan '21

17 Jan '21

Hello to everybody! \setuphead[section][expansion=yes] expands xml reference to the actual content in TUC file: \xmlatt {xml:name::4}{title} → First section for titles & bookmarks. The same is not true for userdata (mkiv & mkxl). Do you know how to force expansion of userdata? MWE attached. Thank you, Jano \startbuffer[doc] <?xml version "1.0"?> <document> <section title="First section"> text </section> <section title="Second section"> text </section> </document> \stopbuffer \setuphead[section][expansion=yes] \setuplist[section][alternative=command, command=\SectionListCommand] \define[3]\SectionListCommand{% {\bf#1\par title: #2\par usertitle: \structurelistuservariable{usertitle}}\par \blank \endgraf} \startxmlsetups xml:name \xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument}{document|section}{xml:name:*} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregistersetup{xml:name} \startxmlsetups xml:name:document \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:name:section \startsection[title=\xmlatt{#1}{title}] [usertitle=\xmlatt{#1}{title}] \stopsection \stopxmlsetups \starttext \placelist[section] \xmlprocessbuffer{xml:name}{doc}{} \stoptext

Re: [NTG-context] question about vardef variables
by Jeong Dal 17 Jan '21

17 Jan '21

Dear Damien Thiriet, If you change ‘vardef’ to ‘def’, you will get the figure. There is a difference between ‘vardef’ and ‘def’. AFAIK, vardef returns the value of the last statement in the macro. Please see the examples in Metafun manual from page 32 ~ . I hope that you find your answer there. I am sorry that I am not good enough to explain the variables.

Hatch a cell : meta:hash:left
by Fabrice Couvreur 16 Jan '21

16 Jan '21

Hi, I seem to have seen a method for hatching the cell of a table, but maybe it's my imagination. The following code does not work. Thanks for your help. Fabrice ################## hatching.tex ############# \setupcolors[state=start] \usemodule[xwi] \starttext \startxtable [align={lohi,middle}, width=1.5cm,framecolor=purple] \startxrow \startxcell[background=color,backgroundcolor=paleturquoise] i \stopxcell \startxcell [background=meta:hash:left, meta:hash:linecolor=green] \stopxcell \startxcell 0 \stopxcell \startxcell 1 \stopxcell \startxcell 2 \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable \stoptext ########################################

Floating object in text - Spacing
by Johann Birnick 16 Jan '21

16 Jan '21

Consider the following example: \setupexternalfigures[location=default] \starttext \placefigure[right,none]{}{\externalfigure[hacker.jpg][scale=518]} \samplefile{lorem} \stoptex What bothers me is the top spacing. There is space to the top, and I dont want it to be there. On the bottom there is no spacing. I would expect it to be evenly distributed. But the spacing on the top will always be there. How to remove this? Thank you, Johann

\setupcolors and \underbar bug?
by Alan Bowen 14 Jan '21

14 Jan '21

The mwe \starttext \setupcolors[state=stop] {\darkred Test} \underbar{Here} \stoptext fails: “Here” does not appear above the underbar (which has the correct length). When \setupcolors[state=stop] is commented out, the file runs as it should. Alan

what’s up with \setupdelimitedtext[method=font]?
by Henning Hraban Ramm 14 Jan '21

14 Jan '21

Hi again, the following example used to work with LMTX (but not MkIV) from September. Now I get the "narrower" indentation only if I comment the first line (in both versions) – apparently there’s a setup conflict, and I don’t know any more why I needed this setup. Could you explain what it does (did, should do)? Hraban \setupdelimitedtext[quotation][method=font] % hanging quotation marks %\setupalign[hanging] \setupnarrower[left=2em,right=1.5em] \definenarrower[Zitat] \setupnarrower[Zitat] [left=2em, right=1.5em, before=\dontleavehmode\hskip-0.33em\startquotation, % fake hanging quotation mark after=\stopquotation] \usemodule[visual] \starttext \fakewords{50}{50} \startquotation quotation \fakewords{100}{100} \stopquotation\footnote{about quotation} \startZitat Zitat \fakewords{100}{100} \stopZitat\footnote{about Zitat} \stoptext

LMTX problem with \input
by Henning Hraban Ramm 14 Jan '21

14 Jan '21

Another LMTX/MkIV difference: In a component, I include another file with \input, that starts with \page in the first line. With LMTX I get an error: """ I can't figure out why you would want to use a tab mark here. If some right brace up above has ended a previous alignment prematurely, you're probably due for more error messages. """ It works if I insert a blank line, and it works in MkIV. Sorry, I can’t reproduce this apparent edge case in a MWE yet. Hraban

LMTX/MkIV difference in date handling
by Henning Hraban Ramm 14 Jan '21

14 Jan '21

ConTeXt ver: 2021.01.11 17:27 LMTX fmt: 2021.1.11 The following works in MkIV, but not in LMTX: \def\Jahr{\currentdate[year]} \settaggedmetadata[ rights={© \Jahr{} Me} ] \starttext \strut \stoptext The error message is: 1 \def\Jahr{\currentdate[year]} 2 3 \settaggedmetadata[ 4 >> rights={© \Jahr{} Me} 5 ] 6 7 \starttext 8 \strut 9 \stoptext 10 You've closed more groups than you opened. Such booboos are generally harmless, so keep going. Hraban

Extra space in align if tagging is enabled
by Mikael Sundqvist 13 Jan '21

13 Jan '21

Hi, There is an extra vertical space after displayed formulas with align if pdftagging is enabled. If I remove the last \NR it goes away (but I have got the idea that one should have that final \NR there?) /Mikael \setuptagging[state=start] \starttext \samplefile{knuth} \startformula \startalign \NC A \NC = B\NR \stopalign \stopformula \samplefile{knuth} \startformula \startalign \NC A \NC = B \stopalign \stopformula \samplefile{knuth} \stoptext

extra width in cropbox and trimbox
by Pablo Rodriguez 12 Jan '21

12 Jan '21

Dear list, I have already reported this before (https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2020/099636.html) I have the following sample: \setupinteractionscreen [width=fit] \starttext \null \stoptext Mediabox is fine: [ 0 0 595.2756 841.8898 ] But cropbox and trimbox contain extra width: [ 0 0 741.4331 841.8898 ] This is caused by \setupinteractionscreen[width=fit]. Generating booklets from documents with the values above leads to wrong output. Could anyone explain me what is wrong here? Sorry, but I don’t know what I may be missing. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
