[NTG-context] Line in headers ?...

2003-10-01 Thread ^Nitram^
Hi,

How I can make line under text in headers like that:

pagenumbersection title |chapter title pagenumber
--- |

odd and even page in ascii art ;)

I have 
\setupheadertexts[text][pagenumber][section][chapter][pagenumber]
and I tried use style=\Command for \setupheader where Command is framed
with bottom frame but there are problems with aligment - is it other way
to do it ?...

-- 
Best regards,
Martin

 Could you be more specific? - Normally you will get an empty page when in
 doublesided mode i.e. when saying
 \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] or things like
 \setuplayout[location=doublesided]
Another possibility is if you use frontmatter, bodymatter, appendices
etc. -- if you combine this with doublesided you can even get a odd
number of pages. In this case the solution is:
  \setupsectionblock[frontpart]   [page=]
  \setupsectionblock[bodypart][page=]
  \setupsectionblock[backpart][page=]
  \setupsectionblock[appendixpart][page=]

The command in Acrobat is Document | Insert Pages - I've tried to tell
myself that there must be an easy way to duplicate this somewhere in the
ConTeXt file, but may be there isn't? If not, this is HIGH on my wishlist.
I, too, have full page AutoCad originated pdf files to insert...

 Given that they are the same size.

all the figures are the same size  or the figures the same size as
the document?

If you know the size of the figures, you can of course switch to
another papersize within the current TeX document and use
\externalfigure then.

 Not certain pages, but the whole thing just stuck together.

\copypages[filename] (+optional [a=b], see \externalfigure)

[NTG-context] Why is there 1pt space between footnotes?

2003-10-01 Thread Steffen Wolfrum
Hi,

I am almost sure that I tried every possible combination of commands and options,
but still there seems to be a minimal distance between footnotes that can't be erased.

My idea was just to have small footnotes without any extra distance between them.

But there always was about 1pt or 2pt distance.

Anybody an idea?


Thank you,

Steffen

Hi,


Ed L Cashin [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 Hi.  I have two questions, really.  I know that I can get a horizontal
 line with \ML in a tabulate table.  \HL doesn't seem to work for me,
 though.

your ConTeXt version is either too old or too new. Depends on how you
look at it. \HL was deactivated a few weeks ago (when?), and now
partly reintroduced, but not 100% compatible as before. There was a
discussion on this topic a couple days ago.

 My second question is how do I make vertical lines in tabulate tables? 

without thinking about it I'd say: you can't.

Re: [NTG-context] ConTeXt updates Gentoo

 Hi!

 Is there any user here using ConTeXt within Gentoo distribution?

 I'm interested regarding the update process since there is no separate
 ebuild for ConTeXt package, how do you keep pace with the rapid
 development.

 Is it better to switch to TeX Live instead of teTeX?

 Sincerely,
 Gour
Gentoo is marvelous but it doesn't keep up with the fast moving targets such 
as Context and Scribus. You will have to use a separate update the old 
fashioned way.

IMHO of course.

I have read that the magazine can be found at

but there is no mag at all.


Do you know where it can be read?
