Re: [NTG-context] Changing font and font size inside textex
Thanks Max that works perfectly! But It would still be useful if I could
change families inside a MPpage.
Sure, but you'll need to store the x-heights first:
\starttexdefinition storexheight [#1]
% Placing the first use of \switchtobodyfont inside a group messes
% with the definitions, so we need to reset the font family manually.
\edef\oldfontclass{\fontclass}
\switchtobodyfont[#1]
\expandafter\newcount\csname #1_xheight\endcsname
\global\csname #1_xheight\endcsname=\numexpr 100 *
\number\dimexpr1em\relax / \number\dimexpr1ex\relax \relax
\switchtobodyfont[\oldfontclass]
\stoptexdefinition
\starttexdefinition setxheight [#1][#2]
% Combining these two lines into one sometimes fails. No idea why.
\switchtobodyfont[#1]
\switchtobodyfont[\the\dimexpr#2 * \csname #1_xheight\endcsname / 100
\relax]
\stoptexdefinition
\storexheight[adventor]
\storexheight[pagella]
\storexheight[heros]
\starttext
\startMPpage
draw textext.origin("\setxheight[adventor][1cm]Hello!");
draw (0, 1cm) -- (6cm, 1cm);
\stopMPpage
\startMPpage
draw textext.origin("\setxheight[pagella][1cm]Hello!");
draw (0, 1cm) -- (6cm, 1cm);
\stopMPpage
\startMPpage
draw textext.origin("\setxheight[heros][6pt]Hello!");
draw textext.origin("\setxheight[heros][24pt]Hello!");
draw (0, 6pt) -- (6cm, 6pt);
draw (0, 24pt) -- (6cm, 24pt);
\stopMPpage
\stoptext
It's pretty ugly code, but it seems to work alright.

Re: [NTG-context] Context path resolving, Problem with MkIV and TeXLive
Hi,
I had/have a very similar problem on FreeBSD with TeXLive 2021, with the same
context.lua not found message.
I “resolved” it by setting TEXMF to point to my texmf-dist directory, in my
case /usr/local/share/texmf-dist. It would be nice for it to work without
setting TEXMF.
Without setting TEXMF, running "mtxrun —generate” guesses a little differently,
then attempts to scan all of /usr, and then fails when parts have no read
permission. (See log at the end of this message.)
I suspect it is working when you are in /usr/share/texmf-dist because the
“collapsepath” function in mtxrun is collapsing “/../..” from /usr/bin to “.”
instead of “/“. (Which seems like a bug, but I’m not sure.)
If I run “TEXMF=/usr/local/share/texmf-dist context file.tex” things run
correctly, and a ~/.texlive2021 directory is created. Running
“TEXMF=/usr/local/shared/texmf-dist mtxrun —generate” runs without error but
also doesn’t generate a ~/.texlive2021 directory.
The real problem seems to be that mtxrun doesn’t deal well with the filesystem
layout case of “/top-level/bin/mtxrun” and “/top-level/share/texmf-dist”.
Regards,
Jan M.

Thank you, I'll try that later.

[NTG-context] issue with compress in linenote
Dear list,
I have the following sample:
\setuppapersize[A6]
\setuplinenumbering
[width=margin, location=outer, align=middle]
\setupnote[linenote]
[paragraph=yes, compress=yes, compressmethod=separator]
\setupnotation[linenote]
[alternative=serried, width=broad]
\definelinenote[otherlinenote]
%~ \setupnote[otherlinenote]
%~ [compress=yes]
\starttext
\startlinenumbering
\dorecurse{20}
{uvwxyz\linenote{abcdef} }
\stoplinenumbering
\stoptext
For some reason unknown to me, "compress=yes" only works in linenote if
I setup another linenote and set it up with "compress=yes".
Could anyone tell me what I am missing or have I hit a bug?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

[NTG-context] stacking of marginals
If you have many marginals, they tend to conflict.
The option stack=yes should enhance the situation.
I don’t expect wonders – if there’s not enough space, then ConTeXt can’t
solve it. But it used to work better, as I can see in my magazines from
the last years.
Now I can’t see a difference between stack=yes or no:
\usemodule[visual]
\useMPlibrary[dum]
\setupmargindata[inmargin][stack=yes]
\starttext
\dorecurse{20}{%
\fakewords{5}{30}
\inmargin{\externalfigure[dummy\recurselevel][width=15mm,height=15mm]}
\fakewords{5}{40}\par
}

Re: [NTG-context] issue in Lua syntax formatting
the formatting of Lua multi-line strings messes up the source structure, in the following MWE, the "one" is displayed after "[[": \starttext \startLUA words = [[ one two three ]] \stopLUA \stoptext I can reproduce this. As a workaround, you can insert a non-breaking space (U+00A0) immediately after the "[[": \starttext \startLUA words = [[ one two three ]] \stopLUA \stoptext (You can't see the NBSP, but it's there) You can also use the Scite syntax highlighting: \usemodule[scite] \starttext \startLUA words = [[ one two three ]] \stopLUA \stoptext It produces different (but usually better) output than the default highlighter. This module is installed by default with ConTeXt LMTX. There's also the Vim module: \usemodule[vim] \definevimtyping[LUA][syntax=lua] \starttext \startLUA words = [[ one two three ]] \stopLUA \stoptext You would need to install this module manually though. -- Max ___ 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://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
