Re: [NTG-context] vertical alignment of table of contents in makeup
Hi Pablo,
thanks for your clarifications. My thinking was that I didn't want my table
of contents page to have a page number, but I didn't realize that the ToC
head acts as a chapter head, so you can just get rid of the page number in
the way you suggest.
So just leaving out the makeup works fine, thanks!

[NTG-context] vertical alignment of table of contents in makeup
There is a trick mentioned on the wiki for top-aligning the contents of a
makeup page, namely adding "top=,", which cancels the default value of
\vss, which is infinitely strechable space.
However, that doesn't seem to work when the first element in the makeup
page is \completecontent:
\starttext
% top= here doesn't seem to be working...
\startmakeup[standard][top=,]
\completecontent
\section{testsection}
\stopmakeup
\stoptext
Here, the table of contents and the section are both placed on the makeup
page, but they are centered vertically. If the \completecontent line is
commented out, the correct vertical alignment of the section header is
obtained. Is there a way to get top-alignment when a makeup page starts
with \completecontent? Is this a bug?
Or should I even be using makeup pages in my table of contents?
Mark

Re: [NTG-context] setting margins in makeup
Sorry for the noise, I've solved it, turns out makeup pages still have headers which you need to set to zero if you want uniform margins: % Title page layout % \definemakeup defines a layout with the same name, which we alter. \definemakeup[titlepage] \setuplayout [titlepage][width=middle, backspace=20mm, height=middle, topspace=20mm, header=0mm] did the trick for me. Incidentally, what threw me off was the phrasing in the manual: 4.19 Makeup A document may have a titlepage, a colofon and some pages that are not directly related to the main part of the document. Mostly these pages are not numbered and can do without headers and footers. Because their layout needs extra attention we prefer the word makeup for defining their specific layout. Since my makeup pages indeed don't have page numbers, I presumed they wouldn't have headers either. I may have read too much into that, but perhaps that passage can be improved?

[NTG-context] setting margins in makeup
I'm having trouble resetting my margins in makeup pages. I want the makeup pages to have equal topspace, bottomspace, backspace and cutspace, regardless of the standard layout of the rest of the document. Following Wolfgang's recommendation ( http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2014/079409.html), I tried the following: \setuppapersize [A4][A4] % Standard page layout \setuplayout[width=middle, backspace=1.5in, cutspace=1.5in, height=middle, topspace=0.75in, bottomspace=0.75in] % Title page layout % \definemakeup defines a layout with the same name, which we alter. \definemakeup[titlepage] \setuplayout [titlepage][width=middle, backspace=20mm, height=middle, topspace=20mm] \starttext \startmakeup[titlepage][top=,] bla \stopmakeup But, on my system, this puts the "bla" too far from the top of the page, and it looks as though the topspace has not been set properly. (Backspace seems ok), Am I doing something wrong or is there a better way to achieve this? Also, the manual says I can use the command \showframe to display frames to help in debugging, but that doesn't seem to do anything for me?

Thanks all for your responses.
\defineexternalfigure looks like it does something very close to what I
wanted. Googling it brought me to a mailing list thread where a question
similar to mine was asked, so for future reference:
http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2012/069446.html.
So I guess my problem is resolved, but I'd still like to understand better
why my earlier solution of doing
\setupfloat[figure][width=2cm]
didn't set a default for later instances of \placefigure. I feel like I
might be missing some aspect of the ConTeXt philosophy, or I'm misreading
the manual, or it's just a bug...?

Sorry, I should have mentioned I was able to work around it by doing
exactly that, but I'd rather not have to edit all the \placefigure
instances if I decide to change the width.
Also I'd like to use a different default width for graphics, so
\setupexternalfigures[width=XXXcm] wouldn't work well either.
I realize I could define my own macros or something to solve this, but I'm
just puzzled that setting width in \setupfloat[figure] doesn't work. Am I
reading the manual wrong, or is is just not implemented yet or something?

[NTG-context] How does \setupfloat work?
I'm trying to set a default width for figures with \setupfloat. However,
the command doesn't seem to be picking up the width specification, even
though the manual indicates it accepts a width= argument:
\setupfloat[figure][width=2cm]
\starttext
\placefigure{}{\externalfigure[picture.png]}
\stoptext
picture.png just gets inserted at its native size, rather than scaled to
have the specified width. What am I doing wrong? (setting minwidth and/or
maxwidth doesn't seem to work either)

Re: [NTG-context] Permissible characters in ConTeXt reference labels
OK, thanks both of you, its looks like I need to sanitize all mentioned
characters, since the reference strings will generally originate from
formats other than ConTeXt, and we don't want ConTeXt to do any processing
on them, aside from comparisons to resolve references.
As for Aditya's examples, the first results in a compilation error on my
test file, while the second compiles without error, and gives the expected
result.

Re: [NTG-context] Permissible characters in ConTeXt reference labels
Bump...
If it's not too much trouble, I would greatly appreciate some feedback on
this before I propose it to be merged into pandoc; even a "looks good to
me" from one of the ConTeXt gurus would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance,
Mark

[NTG-context] Permissible characters in ConTeXt reference labels
I'm trying to fix a problem in pandoc (see
https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/pull/1589) where it doesn't properly sanitize
the reference labels in ConTeXt output, causing errors during compilation
when a label contains '#' for example. Note that this sanitizing is needed
in addition to the regular backslash escaping used for control characters:
'\#' is still illegal in a label for example.
In the sanitizer function I'm writing, I'd like to properly escape all
illegal characters, but I couldn't find an explicit list of allowed or
illegal characters. Based on some testing I've conducted (see attached
file), I've arrived at the following set:
\#[]",{}%()|=
1) Does this look like a reasonable set? Are there other characters or
sequences that should be included, or are worth testing?
2) I was told (see
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/pandoc-discuss/tYpXMUkmbEY) that if
the characters " and , didn't work, it would count as a ConTeXt bug, is
there any truth to that? Please let me know if any further info is needed
on my part.
3) Does anyone see issues with this general approach? I'm relatively new to
ConTeXt, so I might be missing either a huge problem, or an obviously
easier way to do this.
Thanks,
Mark
