Re: [NTG-context] stretched title text

Hi,
Something has changed in the past couple months that causes my stretched

I've attatched a small example. Has anyone a suggestion how I can adapt my
code accordingly?
This is due to a change in core-sec.tex, for 2005.11.24.
(the addition of \ifcase\headtimingmode to \doplaceheadtext).
Below is a patched version (see lines marked with %TH), but
I am not completely sure if that doesn't break that

[NTG-context] followtokens
Dear all, I am quite new to context (but love it) and i am trying tind a way to typeset texts properly kerned in such a way that the characters be all rotated with tiny randomized angle (strange project indeed). I tried to do it by writing a macro inspired by \followtokens. I have two questions : 1. It works but just for text within a single line : I have no clue how to manage the line breaking, and I have to admit that I don't know eanough TeX ConTeXt to find out. 2. In playing with the macro followtoken I happened to write two files with no apparent significant difference (I mean for me) but which give quite different results : one properly kerned, and another that is not. Could someone explain me what's happening here ?

Compare this from how to do this in context (see the wiki). You have

Consider something like an align environment

Suppose, I want to refer to the second equation. In latex, I can
simply add \label{eq:2} and the end of c= d and then \ref{eq:2}. For
context, the reference label goes at the top, with \placeformula[eqs].
But I am not sure, how to give individual labels to each equations.

[NTG-context] Pagenumbers and labels
Dear syndicate,
Three questions (test file attached):
1. A pagenumbering problem: I have
\setuppagenumbering[way=bytext]
Good: The page numbers are continuous and do not restart with each new
part;
Bad: The page numbers are still prefaced by the part number, e.g.
1-24, 1-25, 2-26, 2-27 etc.
I want, rather, just 24, 25, 26, 27 etc
2. I want the chapter numerals to ignore the part, so I get
Part 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4.
3. I would to keep Part 1 Part 2 in the TOC, but no numeral at all in
the main text. I got rid of the Part label in the main text, but not the
numeral.
incrementnumber=no
works but then the TOC loses the Parts altogether.
Thnx in advance
Best

say that you have a background behind framed:
compare:

draw OverlayBox withcolor red ;

\setupcolor[state=start]
\defineoverlay[test][\useMPgraphic{test}]

\framed[background=test]{Hans van der}
\framed[background=test]{Hans van der Meer}
\framed[background=test]{Hans}
\stoptext
compare: use, reuse and unique and you'll notice the differnece:
use: every time (i.e. 5 mp runs)
reuse: once, each framed gets the same background (some have wrong
dimensions)
unique: 4 runs, the last one has the same dimensions and is shared
so ... unique is able to determine if it can reuse (based on
configurable characteristics)

Re: [NTG-context] MPgraphic question
I am recalling from memory, but try each, but use the graphic about five times in your document. Before compiling, clear your directory of all files except your sample tex file. Then compile. If I remember, when you use the useMPgraphic, you'll get a graphic file each time you use it (five of them), but only one with the uniqueMPgraphic. That's one difference, if I am remembering this properly.

Fine by me. Your method is perfectly acceptable.
much if this 'complicated' math is not that complicated to support,see
attached file
Wonderful. I did not know that something like this can be done so
easily in context.
i'm willing to implement anything reasonable but since i hardly use such
math i only act on 'i want to achieve this' kind of specs (i have no time to
read tons of tex documents)
Here are features that I would want context math to have. I do not
care about the input syntax (whether it is same as latex or not) as
long as the features are there.
1. Have align support with variable number of columns.
a = b
= c + d
+ e
should be typeset as
a = b
= c + d
+ e
2. Have a mechanism to individually number/not-number an equation.
3. Have a gather environment. Depending on the user option should
either center, left justify or right justify all equations. Useful
when you have a bunch of equation together and do not want to have
startforumla and stopformula after each of them.
4. In align you should be able to specify the separation between
columns. There should be some input syntax that allows you to typeset
an output like
a = b c = d
e = f g = h
It will be great if you can number each equation (i.e. four number in
the above example). There should be an option to only number each
line.
5. have a splitformula environment that allows
a = b
+ c \\
+ d
to come out as
a = b
+ c
+ e(1)
with only one formula number. The formula number should be at the last
line or the center of the whole formula, configurable by an option.
6. Allow, someway of typesetting
a = b + c
Using some result
= d + e
that is, you should be able to come out of the align mode temporarily
and then go back. Latex calls this intertext. Have some means to
adjust the before and after skips of intertext. Something like
\setupintertextskip[small or medium or big]
7. Allow some way of typesetting multilined formula where
first line is left aligned
second line after some hskip
third line after some hskip
...
last line right alinged
This should have only one formula number, either on the last line or
in the center of the display.
8. Have a version of align, gather and multiline that can be used
inside a formula. So one should be able to type
\startformula
\left.\startaligned
\NC a \NC= b \NR
\NC c \NC= d \NR
\stopaligned\right\}
\implies
\startaligned
\NC b \NC= a \NR
\NC d \NC= c \NR
\stopaligned
\stopformula
to get
a = b } = b = a
c = d } d = c
where the implies is centered between the two lined.
Have an option to make these environments come at the top, middle or
bottom of the baseline.
9. Allow easy input of multiline subscripts. Suppose I want
\sum
a b
c d
e f
10. Allow the big subscripts of math operators to be smashed to the
left or right. Suppse, I have
a \times \lim_{a very long equation} b_n
There should be a command, say \smashoperator such that
a \times \smashoperator\lim_{a very long equation} b_n
comes as
a lim b_n
a very long eq
where (a very long equation) in centered beneath the center of lim but
the bounding box is the bb of lim not the bb of the subscript
Also
a \times \smashoperator[r]\lim_{a very long equation} b_n
should come as
a lim b_n
a very lone eq
where the bounding box of a lim on the right is the bb of the lim,
on the left is the bb of the subscript.
Similarly of \smashoperator[l]
11.
[NTG-context] Keep framed on the baseline
All,
I have:
\placeformula[-]
\startformula
\eqalign{
\text{Divisors of 12}: \framed{1},\ \framed{2},\ \framed{3},\ 4,\
\framed{6},\ 12\cr
\text{Divisors of 18}: \framed{1},\ \framed{2},\ \framed{3},\
\framed{6},\ 9,\ 18}
\stopformula
But I'd like to keep the numbers on the same baseline and let the
frame dip below the baseline.
