Hi Arthur and Thomas,

i've put the greek file in the distribution (fea path), do we also need

[NTG-context] section title: alignment

2007-09-17 Thread Jörg Hagmann
Dear list members,

My section titles have a gray background of textwidth, as follows:

\def\SectionCommand#1#2{\framed[frame=off,width=\textwidth,%
align=right,background=color,backgroundcolor=lightgray]{#1\quad#2}}
\setuphead[section][command=\SectionCommand,numbercolor=red]

That works, except when section titles are longer than textwidth: in 
that case, the second line is aligned with the number, not the text. How 
can I get correct alignment? I tried to include \starttabulate \NC #1 
\NC #2 \NC\NR \stoptabulate in SectionCommand, but then the background 
extends too much above and below.

I'm sure there is an easy solution? Thanks a lot, Jörg

Minimal example:
\setupcolors[state=start]
\def\SectionCommand#1#2{\framed[frame=off,width=\textwidth,%
align=right,background=color,backgroundcolor=lightgray]{#1\quad#2}}
\setuphead[section][command=\SectionCommand,numbercolor=red]

\starttext
\section{A very long title, longer than the width of the text and 
therefore needing a second line}
\stoptext

[NTG-context] externalfigure rotation

2007-09-17 Thread Santy, Michael

Hello,

I'm looking to rotate an externalfigure inside of its bounding box in 
increments of 90 deg.  Its real easy with 0 and 180, you can just do:

\externalfigure[blah.pdf][width=5.0in, height=2.0in]
\rotate[rotation=180]{\externalfigure[blah.pdf][width=5.0in, height=2.0in]}

Both commands result with an image that is 5.0in wide and 2.0in tall.

But the problem comes when rotating a externalfigure at 90 and 270 degrees (or 
more generally, anything besides 0 and 180).  The rotation is applied to the 
whole bounding box instead of rotating the picture within a bounding box.  The 
following images will be rendered 2.0in wide and 5.0in tall.

\rotate[rotation=90]{\externalfigure[blah.pdf][width=5.0in, height=2.0in]}
\rotate[rotation=270]{\externalfigure[blah.pdf][width=5.0in, height=2.0in]}

Are there any plans to add support for specify an externalfigure's rotation 
within its bounding box, similar to this:
\externalfigure[blah.pdf][width=5.0in, height=2.0in, rotation=90]

Cheers,
Mike

Re: [NTG-context] Interactive slides---hidden field on every page

 Good morning or whatever you have now in Europe.
  
 It seems that my mail have come to the list, so I dare to repost it:

sometimes the only way to get an answer :)

 I'm preparing my slides. Every slide is divided to three parts
 (backgrounds): text, header, and bottom. I've got the navigation buttons
 in the bottom. Now I'd like to add one more button that would open a
 field on the current page---a field containing the list of content. I'd
 like it to go to the \Topic I want to discuss and disappear.
 
 I tried this:
 
 \definefield[Content][check][HelpSetup][content][content]
 \setupfields[reset]
 \setupfield[HelpSetup]
   [width=fit,height=fit,frame=off,option={readonly,hidden}] %
 \definesymbol[content][\SomeContentText]
 \def\SomeContentText{%
   \startframedtext
 [width=\textwidth, height=fit, frame=on,
  background=color, backgroundcolor=tmava,framecolor=svetla]%
   \placecontent}
   \stopframedtext
 }
 %
 \setupbackgrounds
   [text]
   [%backgroundoffset=10pt,%.5cm,
background={contentmenu,nextpage}]
 %
 \defineoverlay
   [ContentOnOff]
  
 [{\goto{\framed[width=\overlaywidth,height=\overlayheight,frame=off]{\hss}}%
 
  [JS(Toggle_Hide{Content})]}]%\overlaybutton{JS(Toggle_Hide{Content})}]
 %
 \startinteractionmenu[bottom]
   \setupinteraction
 [color=svetla,
  contrastcolor=black]
   \hbox to 600pt{%
 \raise0.4em\hbox{%
   \framed[width=3em, height=0.7em, frame=off,
 background={PageCounter,ContentOnOff}]{}}
 \hss
 \interactionbuttons[frame=off, width=8em]
  [firstpage,
   previouspage,nextpage,
   lastpage,
   PreviousJump,NextJump]%
 \hbox to 1cm{\hss}%
 \hbox to 44mm{%
   \interactionbuttons[frame=off][CloseDocument]\hss}%
  }
 
H Michel,

if possible try to post a (not)running minimal example, so that people
can directly test with the source. It's too time consuming to 'make it
run' first.

 However, it doesn't work:
 
 1. The list of content is placed only on one page, not at all of them as
 I would like.
 
\setupbackgrounds[state=repeat]

 2. The field supposed to show/hide it isn't clickable---it isn't
 interactive, and does nothing.

\setupinteraction[state=start]

 3. I use \Topic and \Subject as heads, and I don't know how to put them
 to the list of content.

a search for 'combinedlist' in the mail archive gives

http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20061020.082024.ded01b67.en.html


 Can you possibly help me to solve this problem?

Not tested (just guessing), *maybe*

HTH, Peter

 Sincerely yours
 Michal Kvasnicka

 1. Is there a way to keep TeX in-memory (i.e. as a server or daemon

 No, there is not (at least not using any of the 'stock' tex
 distributions). The one thing you could do is preload the fonts
 and modules you need into the format file, but setting this up
 is not completely trivial either.
   
Indeed not trivial. But something I played with once upon a time for 
much the same purpose. You should take a look at Jonathan Fine's TeX 
daemon project texd (http://sourceforge.net/projects/texd) if you 
haven't already - it runs as a pipe (unix) and only loads formats once; 
it would take a little bit work to get it going reliably with ConTeXt, 
especially to do so in a way that is easily updated when a new ConTeXt 
is released, and I'm not sure if Jonathan is still actively working on 
the project. But it demonstrates an effective approach, which works with 
Plain (and LaTeX I think).

[NTG-context] Logos in context / Miscellaneous questions

2007-09-17 Thread Edd Barrett
Hi there,

I am new here, so greetings. My name is Edd and I am experimenting
with context as a replacement for pdflatex when I do my dissertation
next year.

I am using texlive 2007 on OpenBSD which includes context.

I am probably now going to ask some really dumb questions.. Here goes.

---
A) I am trying to get a logo to appear in the top left of every page.
I have already discovered that I can include a graphic like so:

\externalfigure[shift]
This works just fine

However if I try to define a logo like so:
\definelogo[logo][top][left]
[command={\externalfigure[shift]}, state=start]

I am presented with this error:
layout  : calculating logospace
 ./shift.png
figures : dimensions of shift are determined externally
(./template.tuo
! Undefined control sequence.
l.11 \t
   hisissectionseparator{-}

Specifying a height and width does not help either.

---

B) Is there an equivilent to the RCS package for latex. Basically it
parses version control tags from CVS/RCS.

---

C) Is there a book on context (apart from the PDF on the main
website). What other documentation exists. I have already found
contextgarden and that has proven very useful.

Thanks

-- 
Best Regards

Edd

weird error

try layers instead of logos (see wiki), more powerfull and easier to use

There are a couple of RCS packages for LaTeX. Can you elaborate on 
what functionality you need. Most of it is pretty straightforward to 
port to ConTeXt.

 C) Is there a book on context (apart from the PDF on the main
 website).

There are few manuals for specific topics also, which are availabe 
from Prama-ade's website.

 What other documentation exists.

There are a few MyWays, which document features that are not mentioned 
in the manuals. There are also articles in MAPS, Practex journal and 
Tugboat, but most of them are about new or advanced features.
