issue with images in frames
by Pablo Rodriguez 18 Oct '19

18 Oct '19

Dear list, I have the following sample: \setupexternalfigures[location=default] \starttext \startxtable[option={stretch, width}] \startxrow \startxcell \dontleavehmode\dorecurse{100}{ \externalfigure[cow.pdf][scale=50] } \stopxcell \startxcell \input zapf \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable \stoptext Some time ago, there were no difference between images and text remaining inside the frame. Have I hit a bug or what am I missing there? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

lmtx and Asana Math
by Otared Kavian 17 Oct '19

17 Oct '19

Hi Hans, Today I noticed that the OT font Asana math was absent from my installation of lmtx, that is from /context-osx-64/tex/texmf/fonts/opentype/public and that was the reason I kept obtaining in my documents different script fonts from the ones I have with mkiv. I copied the font into /context-osx-64/tex/texmf/fonts/opentype/public/Asana-Math and after erasing the cache and making the formats, everything works as expected now. So my question is: can this font be included in the distribution of lmtx so that one doesn't need to manually add it? Or should one install it somewhere else on one's machine? Thank you for everything, Best regards: Otared

Where is tex/texmf-context?
by Henri Menke 16 Oct '19

16 Oct '19

Dear list, Today I wanted to use ConTeXt MkIV instead of LMTX but when I ran context, I obtained the error mtxrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' so I went to the installation directory /opt/context to check and noticed that tex/textmf-context was missing. I thought that obviously something must have went wrong with the last update, so I deleted the whole tree and ran the first-setup.sh again using sh ./first-setup.sh --context=latest --engine=luatex --modules=all --fonts=all but tex/texmf-context is still missing. Is any of the options I'm using for the install script broken? Cheers, Henri

\ctxlua and \startluacode ... \stopluacode
by Rudolf Bahr 16 Oct '19

16 Oct '19

Dear List! THis MWE must be faulty, but where is the error? ==================================================== \startluacode userdata = userdata or {} function userdata.file_exists (name) local name = name local f = assert ( io.open ( name, "r" )) if f then f:close () context ( name ) context ( " exists!" ) else context ( name ) context ( " doesn't exist!" ) end end \stopluacode \starttext \def\lookupfile#1% {\ctxlua{userdata.file_exists([==[#1]==])}} \lookupfile{"$HOME/context-tests/AAA.lua"} % "AAA.lua" intentionally does exist \lookupfile{"$HOME/context-tests/BBB.lua"} % "BBB.lua" intentionally doesn't exist \stoptext ==================================================== It makes no difference in commenting out the first or the second "\lookupfile" command. The error message eventually is always nearly the same: token call, execute: [ctxlua]:8: "$HOME/context-tests/AAA.lua": No such file or directory token call, execute: [ctxlua]:8: "$HOME/context-tests/BBB.lua": No such file or directory I'm using: LuaMetaTeX, Version 2.00.0 ConTeXt ver: 2019.10.10 18:15 MKIV beta fmt: 2019.10.12 int: english/english Please, any ideas? Regards, Rudolf

how to do adaptation
by Susanne G. Loeber 14 Oct '19

14 Oct '19

Hi, I am looking for ways to adapt the layout and content of texts while using ConTeXt. Put simple: show part of a text and sort these parts based on data from the user and the author (.dat file). The biggest problem is not knowing which part of the text will be first and how many parts will be shown. So far, I am trying to get a hang of \setupdocument (https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Project_structure) \startmode (https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modes) \definecolor (https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Color) and \defineparagraphs (https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/defineparagraphs) I hope there are more ways to create adaptation. I would also like to know whether certain combination don't work together. For example, I cannot seem to get \doifmodeelse to work inside a \defineparagraphs environment. \defineparagraphs[BLpar][n=2, frame=on] \setupparagraphs [BLpar][1][width=\dimexpr.3\textwidth] \starttext % Working \enablemode[asg] \doifmodeelse{asg} {\par First sentence} {\par Second sentence} \disablemode[asg] \doifmodeelse{asg} {\par First sentence} {\par Second sentence} \doifnotmode{asg} {\par Third sentence} % Not working \enablemode[one] \startBLpar \doifmodeelse{one} {First sentence} {Second sentence} \disablemode[one] \BLpar % \disablemode[one] %% not helping TOP1 paragraphs \stopBLpar % \disablemode[one] %% needed to make the example work \startBLpar \doifmodeelse{one} {First sentence} {Second sentence} \BLpar TOP2 paragraphs \stopBLpar \startBLpar \doifnotmode{one} {Third sentence} \BLpar TOP3 paragraphs \stopBLpar \stoptext Kind regards, Susanne G.

LMTX: Linux and Windows
by Pablo Rodriguez 14 Oct '19

14 Oct '19

Dear list, I have the following sample (slightly modified version taken from java-imp-vplayer.mkiv): \starttext \startTEXpage[offset=3em] \useJSscripts[vplayer] \setupinteraction [state=start] \externalfigure [shockwave] [frame=on, width=240pt, height=135pt, file=bathtub.mp4, label=foo] \goto{START} [JS(StartShockwave{foo})] \goto{REWIND}[JS(RewindShockwave{foo})] \goto{PAUSE} [JS(PauseShockwave{foo})] \goto{STOP} [JS(StopShockwave{foo})] \stopTEXpage \stoptext In Linux, it is compiled fine with LMTX (beta version from 2019.10.11 15:47). Using beta from 2019.10.10 in Windows, LMTX doesn’t find vplayer9.swf (https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/media9/players/VPlayer9.swf) altough it is in the same directory as the ConTeXt source file being compiled. Does anyone know what I might be missing? Could anyone confirm this issue? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Re: [NTG-context] PDF viewer poll
by Damien Thiriet 13 Oct '19

13 Oct '19

Hello, I am using SumatraPDF at school (Windows). Lightweight, opens where it was closed last time (very convenient when you've got presentations up to 100 slides or more that takes several weeks to be discussed). Self actualizes when the ConTeXt source is compiled. At home (OpenBSD), mupdf and zathura. Rather for ratpoisons or Vim fans (keyboard-driven). Regards, Damien Thiriet
