Re: [NTG-context] PDF-Toc text is wrong for new \start? commands

2013-07-16 Thread Andres Conrado
Have you tried formatting it this way:

\startsection
[title={my fancy section}]

bla
\stopsection

Breaking before closing or after opening the square braces has always
given trouble to me.

Thanks for pointing this out, and I did indeed rewrite the code, so it
would work with the TABLE mechanism. It's a bit like breaking a
butterfly with a wheel. Please have a look at the following code, as I
think I may have found bug in the TABLE mechanism.

The following code does exactly what I want but it has a pretty bad
hack on line 7, where I reference all columns by
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8][1,2,3] rather than using the [r][1,2,3], since the
latter does not work as expected.  It seems that statements concerning
columns take precedence before statements that concern rows.  In the
example below, \setupTABLE[c][1,2,3][align=right] overwrites
\setupTABLE[r][1,2][align=center] --- no matter where you put the
latter (before or after the former statement). At least for me, this
is rather unintuitive.

then the title is correctly displayed within the document. Nevertheless, it
ends up enclosed in curly braces in the PDF-Toc. My current workaround, if
I put a comma after the title


\startsection[

foo
\stopsection

is ok here

On 2013–07–16 Steffen Kram wrote:

> A similar problem occurs, when using references:

It might be a parser issue. ConTeXt uses different parsers for
different commands. Most commands happily accept values without
trailing comma. The commands using a different parser require a
trailing comma. I recall this applied to \definepalet, \usepath and
a few others.

The issue occasionally pops up on the mailing list, since it's
inconsistent and non-intuitive behaviour.

Personally I don't use that syntax any more. It doesn't work
reliably and fails occasionally with particular commands.

Re: [NTG-context] PDF-Toc text is wrong for new \start… commands

2013-07-16 Thread Gareth Jones
There’s a similar quirk in the title and author attributes of \setupinteraction.

I’ve just got myself into a habit of always having a trailing comma in
[…,…] lists, and haven’t had any problems with that so far.

Re: [NTG-context] PDF-Toc text is wrong for new \start… commands

2013-07-16 Thread Steffen Kram
A similar problem occurs, when using references:

\startsection[
title={my fancy section},
]


\startsubsection[title={first subsection}]
\in{see}[secsub]
\stopsubsection

\startsubsection[
title={second subsection},
reference=secsub
]
foo
\stopsubsection
\stopsection


the \in reference does not work, as long as you don't declare the reference as

\startsubsection[
title={second subsection},
reference=secsub,
]

Since other context commands don't work that way, I guess something is wrong …

[NTG-context] PDF-Toc text is wrong for new \start… commands

2013-07-16 Thread Steffen Kram
Hi all,

I just converted my thesis from the old \chapter format to the new 
\startchapter … commands, to be more flexible when defining the titles for toc 
etc. If you're just giving a title, e.g.

\startsection[
   title={my fancy section}
]
bla
\stopsection

then the title is correctly displayed within the document. Nevertheless, it 
ends up enclosed in curly braces in the PDF-Toc. My current workaround, if I 
put a comma after the title

\startsection[
title={my fancy section},
] 

it looks fine. Guess this is bug, not expected behavior.

Cheers,
Steffen
