Hmm, you are right, like a little frayed. 02713 and 02714 are similar.

[NTG-context] Re: Pocket Diary Photo Calendar: how to specify on which day the week begins?

2024-06-15 Thread Michael Guravage 
Bruce,

Yes, I remember encountering this problem. The two files you need are:
sun-MP.tex and moons-MP.tex. I don't recall where I found them so I've
attached them below. Drop them into their respective pocketdiary
directories Solar and Moonphase and run mtxrun --generate.

Your suggestion of the Day key was the first thing I tried myself.
Unfortunately, it has no effect.

Thanks for thinking along.

With kind regards,

Michael

Your example didn't work for me - I didn't have PocketDiary installed and then 
after installing it I got an error about Moons.tex. Life's too short to faff 
trying to fix it so this suggestion is untested.

The variables setting allows a Day= value so try experimenting with

\setvariables
  [PocketDiary]
  [Year=2025,
   Day=7]

as the default value is 1 which I assume is Monday.

[NTG-context] Upgrading from 2021.03.05.20230120 -> 2023.05.05.20230730 breaks BibTeX footnotes

2024-06-15 Thread Kip Warner 
Hello list,

I recently upgraded my distro release to Ubuntu Noble on one of my
machines. The ConTeXt packages that were previously for
2021.03.05.20230120 were upgraded to 2023.05.05.20230730.

Since the upgrade I've noticed my BibTeX footnotes that previously
looked like this:

   https://imgur.com/vg7Xjd3.png

Now look like this:

   https://imgur.com/I3hq6bM.png

I haven't changed anything in the source of my document. This is how I
typeset in my Environment.tex:

   % Select References.bib and name it the main database...
   \usebtxdataset[main][./References.bib]
   
   % Citation style...
   \usebtxdefinitions[apa]
   
   % Use our main dataset for citations...
   \setupbtx[dataset=main]
   
   \definebtxrendering[main][apa][dataset=main]
   
   % When listing all references use APS style...
   \definebtxrendering
   [list_all_references]
   [aps]
   [dataset=main,
   group=examples]
   
   \setupbtxrendering[main][
   pagestate=start,
   continue=yes,
   numbering=yes]
   
   % Macro to put the citations as footnotes...
   \unexpanded\def\footnotecite{\dodoubleempty\domycite}
   \def\domycite[#1][#2]%
   {\ifsecondargument
   \footnote{\cite[alternative=entry,#1][main::#2]}%
   \else
   \footnote{\cite[alternative=entry][main::#1]}%
   \fi}

Any help appreciated!

[NTG-context] Pocket Diary Photo Calendar: how to specify on which day the week begins?

2024-06-15 Thread Michael Guravage 
Hi,

I am trying to use the Pocket Diary
 module to create a photo
calendar as described in the Calendar Examples
. The examples work fine.
By default weeks begin on Monday. Does anyone know how to specify that
weeks begin on Sunday? I have searched through all the setvariable
assignments, but nothing seems applicable.

I have attached an example file so you needn't retrieve all the examples.
Any help would be appreciated.

Dear Hans and Mikael,

I appreciate for all the efforts to make a nicer math output and for the math 
manual.
I hope that a few problems in math are gone away in this new version.

The math writing in ConTeXt was getting better and better to this point.
I’ll learn many things from this manual.

Thanks again and have a nice weekend.

Best regards,

Dalyoung

Hi Hans and Mikael,

The manual is great. Solves most of my challenges. Very handy as I am also
writing a math thesis in it. Off topic but does anyone have a source for a
RECENT math presentation they wrote using ConTeXt they can share?  Would be
very helpful.

Thanks for your hard work.

Just as an info. I'm using Noto symbols now:
```
\definefont[symbolFont][name:notosanssymbols2regular*default at 11pt]
\define{\yes}{{\symbolFont\utfchar{0x1f5f8}}}
\define{\no}{{\symbolFont\utfchar{0x1f5f4}}}

\starttext
\yes and \no.
\stoptext
fwiw: 1F5F8 looks pretty bad (in otf) (i checked as i though it was a 
bug in lmtx)

Hi,

thank you all for your replies so far. I guess I’ll have to live with that for 
now (of course this isn’t really a problem, but a bit unpleasant to look at 
when you’re used to the straight lines in LaTeX). Just wanted to add that I can 
see this artifacts quite clearly on a 13 inch 1080p screen in the PDF viewer 
(depends on zoom level, on some zoom levels I see nothing) and not only when 
enlarging a screenshot. After all, it’s visible in my attached screenshots even 
if displayed in their original resolution. (Naming of my screenshots wasn’t 
very clear, zoomed.png is zoomed-in in the pdf viewer, not a zoomed-in 
screenshot.)
The "left radical + rule" isn't perfect either, because it depends on 
overlap. Depending on the font you can see issues at the connection 
(actually these might be obscured by aliasing at low res). You can try 
that outside lmtx with different fonts.


Also, because rules are often rendered differently from glyphs (and 
rules can use either a line or rectangle fill) it's always been an issue 
(which is also why engines have some heuristics for choosing one or the 
other method).


And, as mentioned, vertical extenders also use the same etechnology as 
we now use for radicals, it's just that there was never a concept like 
that in engines for radicals. Arrows sit in the same category and also 
use the same glyphs so there one can observe the same. Actually, even in 
traditional tex arrows are made from minusus and an arrowhead 
overlapping piecewise.


Maybe viewers will catch up.
