[NTG-context] Figure caption on different page?
Hello, Is it possible to place (for page sized figures) the caption on the next/previous page? Thanks, Joh ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Hello,
I would like to clip an external eps-figure as LaTeX does with the clip
option.
Please consider the attachment as an example for en eps with white border
and the following LaTeX and ConTeXt code:
\starttext % no clipping possible here
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
\externalfigure[test-img][width=0.5\textwidth]
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla

bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
\includegraphics[clip,width=0.5\textwidth]{test-img}

\end{document}
Or is there already such (undocumented) feature?

I see, I did not realize such simple usage of \clip (without options).
That do exactly what was thinking about. One character of typing
difference between:
\clip{\externalfigure{test}}
and
\externalfigure[clip]{test}
is not crutial:) So sorry for noise.
But as far as I know, \clip works only with left|top,width|height
params. Could right|bottom be added (assuming at least one from
left-width-right and top-height-bottom is missing - if not width|height
is ignored)? Or there is again some secret that I missed?

I have a similar problem. Attached is the (not so) minimal example
that I could prepare. (This is part of my way on mathalignment). See
the page break on page 2, while all the page is empty. Adding
\kern\zeropoint prevents the page break. But I find such an page break
very confusing.

framedtext does not break across pages :( Can startbackground be
persuaded to become sane?

[NTG-context] \setupframed[...][...=...]

\setupframe[myframe][framecolor=red] \myframed{C}

it works but with fully expansion of options. So it works a bit
differently in a cases
1)
\def\ONorOFF{off}
\defineframed[myframed][frame=\ONorOFF]
\def\ONorOFF{on}\myframed{A}
2)
\def\ONorOFF{off}
\defineframed[myframed][frame=\ONorOFF]
\setupframed[myframe][framecolor=red]
\def\ONorOFF{on}\myframed{A}
Is there some simple solution? Or it has to be rewritten in a way like
other \definesomething[...] (storing every parameter/definition-instance
in a macro)? If sometimes this code would be reviewed I vote for doing
\setupframed in this 'standard' ConTeXt way.

[NTG-context] wrapping a long URL without added spaces
I can wrap a long URL using \hyphenatedurl, but not without getting
some unwanted spaces before the numerous “/”s in the URL.
I expect that I have missed something elementary, again. Still, my
efforts to avoid the spaces have thus far been unsuccessful, so any

Thanks a lot, it's working like a charm. What complex code before for
getting much more simple code after, in the tables ! It's that kind of
stuff that makes Context attractive, even for an end user like me.

Maybe I was unclear, I just want to be able to recall a certain style for
certain rows : the position of the rows is not regular, as in my case,
it's for emphasis for each new letter (A,B,C, etc.) of glossary terms.
As this def is rather long, i just wanted to make a more readable code. So
I tried to put
[nc=2,background=color,backgroundcolor=screen,style=\bf,frame=off,align={right,lohi}]
in \def\Rowa#1{[nc=2,..]{#1}}
and call this def on new letter row by
%\bTR \bTD [command=\Rowa] B \eTD \eTR % NOT WORKING
\bTR \bTD[nc=2,background=color,backgroundcolor=screen,
style=\bf,frame=off,align={right,lohi}command=\Rowa]B \eTD \eTR
\bTR \bTD barre \eTD \bTD \'Element de structure .. \eTD \eTR

This is obviousluy a minor request, since i've already copied this def on

as far as i can see it boils down to embedding a bunch of xml snippets (none of
which is valid xml in itself) and add an /XFA entry to the Acroform dictionary
in the Catalog; no big deal; the plugin reassembles the embedded files to
something valid xml and then does something with it, probably depending on the
javascript;
(looks like a real mess of mixing javascript and another language; i wonder why
they didn't use javascript for everything; maybe the xml hype stroke 'm)
