Re: [NTG-context] latest beta, problem with natural tables and alignment character

Almost all of the tables I generate via code, not by hand, so I found it more
convenient to include a trailing % because I occasionally did run across an
instance where it mattered, and wasn't (and am not) sufficiently skilled at
TeX/ConTeXt to know how to predict those occurrences.
It's somewhat similar for always wrapping the contents in {}, I thought I had
run into some cases in the past where it was necessary, so just include them
always rather than manually add them with the content when they are required.
Are there negative consequences (performance, memory usage, ...) to writing it
as I did? Or is the difference just cosmetic?
the empty [] always has a performance hit, for {} it depends what extra
restores have to happen
Best regards,

[NTG-context] PDF Forms - expanding multi-line text fields
I am composing a document that contains pdf forms. Example code in Widgets Uncovered, shows how to specify the height and width of a multi-line text field. Here is a small example: \usemodule[fields] \setupinteraction[state=start] \setupfield [TextSetup] [width=\textwidth,height=5em,background=screen,backgroundscreen=.97,frame=off] \definefield [Block] [text] [TextSetup] \starttext \field [Block] \stoptext In this example the height is 5em. The field will scroll lines up when the height of the lines typed exceeds the height of the field. Click outside the field and the field displays the first n-lines that fit within its height. My question is, is it possible to tell the field to expand beyond its initial field height to display all its lines? A second less pressing question is, is it possible to tell lines to wrap when they exceed the field width? -- With kind regards, Michael Guravage ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

Hi, I was testing the latest beta (2014.06.15) and noticed I am getting incorrect output
using natural tables with alignment characters. I produced a small example that
demonstrates the problem, and attached output created with the version I'm testing
(bad.pdf) and my prior version (good.pdf, ConTeXt 2013.06.10). You can see in the bad
file that ConTeXt doesn't properly align on the - and it introduces spurious
spaces.
i assume you haven't updated in a while as this is not something last
beta specific
the alignment code has been redone some time ago (the general mechanism
is more clever now) and it was mostly made for aligning numbers (not so
much for your case as - is seen as minus)
anyhow, i made it work a bit better with tables (extra pass needed)
\starttext
\enabletrackers[typesetters.characteralign]
\bgroup
\setupTABLE[column][1][aligncharacter=yes,alignmentcharacter={,}]
\bTABLE

the next beta can handle this

[NTG-context] Rotate multiline text
Hi,
I want to rotate a multiline text by 90 degrees, and I thought that
\framed[orientation=90] should do that. But it does not work as expected.
\defineframed[tightbox] [align=middle, width=fit, height=fit]
\defineframed[rotatebox][tightbox][orientation=90]
\starttext
\startlines
ABC \rotatebox{Random \crlf text } ABC
ABC \rotate{\tightbox{Random \crlf text }} ABC
\stoplines
\stoptext
I would like \rotatebox to behave the same as
\rotate{\tightbox{..}}, but it does not. It appears that the width (or
height?) or \rotatebox is set to broad.
Am I missing a magic option or is this a bug?
Aditya
