[NTG-context] Positioning graphics at positions on a page
Hi, Measuring from the top left hand corner of US letter paper, I'd like to position four identical metapost graphics, centered at (2in,2in), (6in,4in), (2in,6in) and (6in,8in). The first entry in each pair is the amount I'd like to move to the right from the top left corner of the page. The second entry is the amount I'd like to move down from the top left corner of the page. Any ideas? ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Hello Robin,
some time ago I made something similar. It's certainly not the "proper"
way, but much shorter:
\def\PageCommand#1{\hbox to 1em{\hss#1}}
\setupcombinedlist[content][alternative=c,pagecommand=\PageCommand,
aligntitle=yes]
\setuplist[chapter][style=bold,alternative=b,width=1.5em]
\setuplist[section][margin=1.5em,width=2em]
\setuplist[subsection][margin=3.5em,width=3em]
\setuplist[subsubsection][margin=6.5em,width=4em]

[NTG-context] figure bases (2nd)
hi,
i'm tired of fixing \dogetfigurefilename in every new version. i have
already shown that there is something wrong with it in my mail from
17.01.2007
http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20070117.153030.344c6989.en.html
i don't say, that i understand the complex code for figure inclusion,
but it is obvious that the following code is at least questionable.
(taken from x-fig-00.tex and x-res-04.tex)
\def\dogetfigurefilename#1%
{\ifx\figurefilename\empty
\bgroup
\xdef\figurefilebasepath{#1}%
\assignfullfilename{#1}\figurefilebase\to\filename
\expanded{\processXMLfilegrouped{\filename.xml}}%
\ifx\figurefilename\empty\else
% ^^
% is already tested in the prior \ifx test; if it's not changed
% in the meantime...(\filename?)
%
\globallet\figurefilebase\figurefilebase
% ^^
% does *nothing* (\filename works for me)
\fi
\egroup
\fi}
i have worked with a patched version for the last two month and had no
(more) problems with figure inclusion. without it the pdf figure base is
not found, although the corresponding xml file (which is found) is in
the same directory. any comments are welcome.
greetings, peter

This is indeed a possibility. But I still regard it as bug that PPCHTeX
uses italic in the title. (The title itself is *not* italic, I'm also
not asking that the font/style should follow the surrounding text,
though a \setupchemical option which toggles this would be great.)
(Using \molecule as defined in the wiki is an alternative; your problem
was different as you wanted the symbol to follow the style of the
surrounding text. This would work as well here, but is actually the
solution for a different problem.)
Tobias,
who will now use \molecule{}.

If you've already dlded the file, just unzip it. From the command line: kpsewhich -expand-path='$TEXMFLOCAL' will tell you the location of your local tree. cd to this tree, then just unzip the cont-tmf.zip (probably using sudo, overwriting all files that may already be there) and regenerate the formats, and you should be in business.

Re: [NTG-context] ConTeXt release 2007.03.19
Hi Jelle, do you have to use a Proxy? In my ctxtools.rb i changed the line: http = Net::HTTP.new(site) to: proxy_addr = 'my.proxy.de' proxy_port = 80 http = Net::HTTP::Proxy(proxy_addr, proxy_port).new(site) After that an update via ctxtools was possible. The bad thing is, that i have to change it everytime before an update :-) Since ruby treats tha call to Net::HTTP::Proxy(proxy_addr, proxy_port).new(site) without giving proxy_addr and proxy_port the same way as Net::HTTP.new (site), perhaps Hans can change ctxtools.rb in this way. I would like to have a command line like: ctxtools --updatecontext --proxy:my.proxy.de --proxyport:80 Greetings Lutz 2007/3/20, Jelle Huisman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Op 20-mrt-2007, om 11:32 heeft Taco Hoekwater het volgende geschreven: > Hi all, > > I am pleased to announce that the new ConTeXt release from Hans Hagen > can be downloaded as of now from the Pragma ADE website or one of its > mirrors.

[NTG-context] \chemical{} + \title{}
Hi,
I'd like to typeset a chemical compound in a \chapter. However, when I
try so, all elements are shown in italics.
Example:
---
\usemodule[chemic]
\title{Chemical \chemical{La_{1-x}Ca_xCoO_3}}
Chemical \chemical{La_{1-x}Ca_xCoO_3}
\end
---
Any ideas? (In principle, the "x" in the subscripts should be italic,
but I can use \it for this; as long as titles and non-titles are treated
alike, I'm happy.)
