Re: [NTG-context] Placing table of contents in a frame
Frank,
I am also trying to do a similar project. My way not be a good one, but
here is how I am trying to do it.
Basically, I use columnsets (see manual columns.pdf from PRAGMA) to
typeset my newsletter. I am using a 3 column layout and want a column
containing the Table of Contents on the right side (3rd column).
\definecolumnset[example][n=3]
\setupcolumnsetlines[example][1][3][-50] % From Page 1, Column 3,
% remove 50 lines
% I will put the TOC on
% Column 3
\starttext
\startcolumnset[example]
\placefigure[fxtb:3*1]{none}{\framed[frame=off,
height=5cm,
width=\textwidth,
background=color,
backgroundcolor=yellow]{\blue\txx\placecontent}}
\input Newsletter_Final
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext

I'm trying to move a newsletter from a DTP program to ConTeXt. In this
layout we have a blue column on the left side of the page with a table
of contents. I played around with the framed command and layers, but
did not find a way to put the TOC in a frame at a specific location.
What would be a ConTeXt way of doing this?
Regards,
Frank

How do you get two enumerations to use a common counter? This didn't

The goal is to have these come out:
Remark 1.
f(x)=x^2 (2)
Definition 3.
A second goal is to include the section number.
Remark 5-1.
f(x)=x^2 (5-2)
Definition 5-3.
My idea was to trigger commands such as \nextdefinition, \nextremark,
\incrementnumber[formula] in after=, but \nextdefinition for example
gives an error.

[NTG-context] Size of Heading
Hi!
I have a question concerning the size of headings.
When I say \setuphead[section][numberstyle={\switchtobodyfont

than 12pt. How do I fix that?
Thanks a lot!!

Re: [NTG-context] positiongraphics
I have some further information on the problem below. It turns out not something with position graphics. Instead it is a rogue footnote (that is being colored). It seems that this happens only when the footnote is at a particular point on the page; it is therefore next to impossible to give a minimal example. With some extra thought what happens seems to be this. PlainTextArea:=boundingbox((95.23926pt,72.9016pt)--(95.23926pt, 72.9016pt); The area above is made and somehow finished with a semicolon. Then the next part, the shift is put out: shifted (609.52148pt,476.59792pt));; Together making a statement which is correct except for the intervening semicolon. As it occurs only at specificly placed footnotes, it looks like a subtle flaw in the footnote background generation. I would be happy for a solution, because otherwise typesetting text with footnotes could become a nightmare.
