That works.

Now I run into the next problem. GTAMacFonts does not work anymore. Sigh.


I have no clue ... mkii didn't change, so maybe the fonts did?

Re: [NTG-context] Inline math in table in combination fails

Hi,

The following example results in the error “You can't assign a

 {\starttable [|c|]

   \stopcombination

It works without the combination, without the vertical or horizontal
rule and when no math mode is used. It used to work some time ago,
so I assume it's a bug.


it went unnoticed as works in my experimental branch ... i just forgot 
to copy back a variable initialization


fixed

Re: [NTG-context] bug? gap appears in columnset

2013-09-19 Thread Hans Hagen

Hans wrote,

Columnsets are rather special and mostly meant for magazine like
documents, where content can span columns, images are explicitly placed

larger, the grid dictates what happens. Balancing is semi automatic and
nearly always demands some tweaks.


In our use of columnsets, we do have content that can span columns (but
we keep it outside of columnsets). We also have images within columns
that are placed in the flow of text via hangarounds. We manually tweak
our column lengths on each page (e.g.
\setupcolumnsetlines[columnset10][1][1][42]), in order to avoid the
worst of the widows and orphans. As you say, balancing requires manual
tweaks too, but it's not that big a burden, since we're already doing
\setupcolumnsetlines for many pages.


Using columnsets for a large document that has to flow automatically is
therefore debatable. Regular multi columns or in mkiv mixed-columns are
a better choice then.


We have tried to port our code to mkiv, but have so far found been
unsuccessful. (But are trying again now, having found new success with
TL2013 mkii.)
Also, we've been unable to find any statement that mkiv is out of beta
status. Moreover, much of the documentation still seems to be oriented
toward mkii. So it's hard to justify much of a time investment in
porting production work to mkiv yet. Can you comment on the official
status of mkiv?


just as we had betas for mkii, we have betas for mkiv .. mkii is already 
frozen for years (apart from very few fixes)


i'm pretty sure that most context users use mkiv and here i only run 
mkii in old workflows that already have been running for years (and will 
continue to do so as long as no fundamental update is needed)


most mkii functionality is present in mkiv (of course some old font 
stuff is obsolete) although there are a few mechanism that due to 
extensions are controlled with different keys (mostly keys like 
'alternative')


unless impossible (or messy) i try to keep mkii command compatibility 
but mkiv has already many more commands and mechanisms than mkii, so 
most in manuals still applies


official status: use mkiv as that's where it all happens


Regarding mixed-columns: I understand it's a rewrite of the old
columns model. My impression is that columns didn't support manual
tweaking of column lengths (like \setupcolumnsetlines). Does
mixed-columns support such a thing? That would be a critical question
for us, as it wouldn't be an option for us to spend time porting to mkiv
and using mixed-columns, if it doesn't allow us to tweak the height of
each column on each page.


i can probably add some height-per-column option but it also depends on 
what height is supposed to do but it's unlikely to happen the next few 
weeks


a  mkiv columnsets implementation .. well, it depends on time and 
motivation (most of such mechanisms i don't use myself so i need good 
reasons to spend time on them, unless i'm looking for a challenge on a 
rainy day)


but ... \column works quite ok in mixed columns


Thanks again for your help and advice.

one advantage of europe is that we can choose relatively affordable

 It's better to create a separate pdf qith asymptote: mkiv should be able
to insert it without loss of informations.
The filter module is a general mechanism to use external programs with
mkiv, so I think it's possible
to embed a source asy and (with some macros) include the pdf (perhaps in
two pass)  .

I will do,  but \startitem \stopitem? Is it new? Should I do this way, not 
only \item and just works?

[NTG-context] Broken nightly (2013.09.18)

It looks as though the problem is buried in line 596 of font-syn.lua.
For some reason s.angle is typed as a Lua string and not a number.

local angle   = f_a(s.angle or 0)

That also appears to be buried deep inside Hans' math routines. I can't
figure out exactly what he is trying to do, but it looks as though it
has something to do with calculating correct values for fonts.

[NTG-context] Defining multiple enumerations fails

2013-09-19 Thread Marco Patzer
Hi,

defining multiple enumerations at the same time used to work. Is
this syntax not supported any longer or is it a bug?

\defineenumeration [foo, bar]
\starttext
  \foo foo\par
  \bar bar\par
\stoptext

Great. I'm using the Adam Reviczky's generous PPA and I'll give it a try
as soon as the buildbot pushes new debs.

This multiple defining was only supported for a few commands and made 
the new commandhandler code too complex. In the meantime inheritance is 
rather consistent so the new way is:


\defineenumeration [foo]
\defineenumeration [bar] [foo]

so you can setup foo and bar will follow
