prevgraf change if page break occurs in a paragraph
Hello, I am aware that ConTeXt betas might use experimental luaTeX changes (I use both stable and latest and run both), just wanted to report a change in prevgraf result. Apparently with latest beta it reports the number of lines in last page of paragraph (only tested with pars on 2 pages maximum, haven’t tried longer ones). Simple MWE reproduces the case: \starttext \dorecurse{15}{ A\\ B\\ C\\ D\\ E\\ F\\ G\\ H\\ I\\ J\\ K\\ L \\M\\ N. \the\prevgraf } \stoptext Using ConTeXt online always reports « 14 » after the letters, latest ConTeXt reports different numbers if the par before it has been split in 2 pages. Thanks Joseph

not really, as we don't ship beta luatex's so context normally either has adaptive code or delays usage for a year
in prevgraf result. Apparently with latest beta it reports the number of lines in last page of paragraph (only tested with pars on 2 pages maximum, haven’t tried longer ones). Simple MWE reproduces the case:
\starttext
\dorecurse{15}{
A\\ B\\ C\\ D\\ E\\ F\\ G\\ H\\ I\\ J\\ K\\ L \\M\\ N.
\the\prevgraf
}
\stoptext
Using ConTeXt online always reports « 14 » after the letters, latest ConTeXt reports different numbers if the par before it has been split in 2 pages. well, i could store the old prevgraf (of make that an option) but it's a fact that a top of page is basically a change (in prevgraf and prevdepth)
what do you use prevgraf for?

I see. I use prevgraf to get number of lines in most recent paragraph to compute eventually hangindent if there is a lettrine in paragraph (in case first paragraph has fewer lines than the lettrine itself, of course next paragraph needs to setup hangindent properly). I guess as an alternative, I could use the callback after paragraph is split in N lines to count the number of lines, or is this number can be accessed via some other existing variable in tex lua « table » ? Currently I access prevgraf value Inside lua. Probably better than making things more complicated in luatex itself.

prevgraf is still ok after a 7 line paragraph but ... when you cross a

i don't know your logic but say that you have a dropped thingie that is 5 lines high then you can check for available room \setbox\scratchbox\hbox{...} \getnoflines{\htdp\scratchbox} \testpage[\noflines] then you're for sure on the next page in which case your prevgraf is what you expect (assuming you stay on that page for a while)
I use grid typesetting so normally all lines have same height ?
they get snapped so they can take nlines (the prevgraf variable just counts lines and doesn't look at the dimensions)

In a couple of cases I see \prevgraf being larger than number of lines

it's *not changed* in luatex .. context *itself* sets the prevgraf at
the next page as indicator of the left-over lines
say that you have:
XXX ------------------
XXX ------------------
----------------------
----------------------
- a page break between the first and second line is a bug in your code
- a page break after the second line is harmless and as we're on a new
page then there is nothing to be done i.e. prevgraf then is set to 2 (as
we have two lines if we look back)
say that you have:
XXX ------------------
XXX
- if you get a page break here, again there is nothing to be done as
you're on a next page
- if you need to pick up in the next pagagraph (on the same page) then
prevgraf is 1
so, what in your case does it mean that when your next paragraph is on
the next page you look at prevgraf? there is no need to hangindent as
your hanging stuff is on the previous page
also, in general prevgraf is kind of useless when you have lines higher
than lineheight so if you use a callback, you also should calculate the
real accumulated drop so far

prevgraf is still ok after a 7 line paragraph but ... when you cross a
page, and have say 4 lines moved to the next one, then a 7 line
hangafter would be wrong (you can check if a par is on the same page)
with callbacks after breaking in lines you still don't know ...
