Hello, the "Want to Learn",

Since the main discussion with developers has been moved off-list,
this is just to let you know that there have recently been changes in
both TikZ and ConTeXt core, so at least for me TikZ works now with
simple graphics with ConTeXt beta and latest TikZ (that version is
included in the minimals).

[NTG-context] Number and name of a section

2009-03-21 Thread Henning Hraban Ramm

I try to get number and name of the current chapter into my page header.

Unfortunately, ConTeXt (MkIV) disagrees with itself about what's  
"current" - if several chapters start on the same page, I get the name  
of the first and the number of the last one.


I know I can influence the name with the second parameter of  
\getmarking, but how do I get the *number* of the first chapter on  
this page?


(You can argue it doesn't make sense to start several chapters on one  
page, but it's the same with sections.)



\setupheadertexts[\setups{kapitel}]

\startsetups[kapitel]
  \framed[frame=off, bottomframe=on, width=\textwidth, strut=yes]{%
  \rlap{\headnumber[chapter]. \getmarking[chapter]}
  \hfill
  \strut
  \hfill
  \llap{\pagenumber}
  }
\stopsetups

[NTG-context] Value of Metapost variable as a label

2009-03-21 Thread Curiouslearn
Hello,

First of all, Mojca thanks very much for the update about TikZ. (I could not
find an option to reply in Context Garden mailing list).

My new question is the following. I have the following code to generate the
labels for the tick marks:

for i = 0 step 5 until 45:
draw (i,0)*u -- (i,-0.2)*u;
label.bot(decimal(i) ,(i,-0.2)*u);
endfor;

As you can see I use "decimal(i)" to get the labels (0,5,10,... and so on).
But the font of these numbers is not the same as when I use the "btex
label_text etex" command, which I have set to palatino. How can I typeset
the value of Metapost variables (such as "i" in this case), using tex
commands. For example, if I had to typeset (n_{1},n{2},...,n_{100}), how
could I do that.

On page 63 of John Hobby's metapost manual, he talks about how this could be
achieved using TEX.mp. I tried typing \input TEX before \starttext, however,
I get the error "I can't find file `TEX;' If I put it within the
\startuseMPgraphic  and \stopuseMPgraphic, it still does not work. Do I have
to download this from somewhere or does Context have another solution?

Thanks very much.

[NTG-context] Setting framed

2009-03-21 Thread Diego Depaoli
Hi all,
in my text each section ends with an one-line box so I used \framed
(thinking that's the right way).
How to put each box at the same distance from last previous line even
it comes after a list, a table, a regular text...?
There is an the option to set the \framed's font globally?

Thanks in advance

  LaTeX has a package to do exactly that, fp.  You could look into its
code.  Or you could use LuaTeX :-)

It's easy to do with etex but I would use lua if possible.

Yes because you're working with integers and dividing a number by a  
bigger

number results in zero (that's why you could also use \numexpr above).

What about

If dimenb and dimend are positive, this should be equivalent (assuming
you don't run into overflow).

[NTG-context] Is \index command broken?

2009-03-21 Thread Curious Learn
Hi,

I tried using the \index command in my document:

\starttext

\type{\textext()} \index[textext]{\textext}

To typeset metapost variable values (not the verbatim text) using
\TEX\ markup, use this command.

\page

\completeindex

\stoptext

However, no index is created. The log file gives the following information about
the version:
This is LuaTeX, Version snapshot-0.35.0
