[NTG-context] Problem with context --extra=select

[Michael Guravage]

Greetings,

Regardless of the selection criteria, the select tool selects only the
first page. This feature works in my ConTeXt versions from 2024.05.17 and
2024.08.13. I'm running the latest version, i.e. 2024.09.17.

context --extra=select --selection=11:16 forexample.pdf

I've attached the output in a log file if anyone's interested.

Any suggestions?

With kind regards,

Michael Guravage

[NTG-context] Spacing within combinations

[Michael Guravage]

Greetings,

The attached MWE combines 12 images in  a 3 by 4 grid; with horizontal and
vertical spacing set by setupcombinations.

I have two questions. First, can someone please tell me why the vertical
spacing is not applied between the first and second and third and fourth
rows?  Second, why, If I try, e.g.c 15 images, does  ConTeXt complain of a
missing left brace. More generally, my mwe failed with an odd number of
images, but succeeded with an even number.

Thanks.

With kind regards,

Michael

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

[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

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

[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.

[NTG-context] Document metadata after context --extra=select script

[Michael Guravage]

Greetings,

I set a document's title with the following code:

\expanded
  {\setupmetadata
[title={Document Title}]}

I then create a derivative document with a selection of pages using
ConTeXt's select script.

context --extra=select [options] list-of-files

The metadata title of this document is "mtx-context-select." While I can
use any number of utilities to manually tweak the title, is there a ConTeXt
way to preserve or assign metadata values when using these scripts?

I would like to use the nextquadruple and beforequadruple pagebreakhandlers

[NTG-context] XML processing, unwanted indentation/alignment

[Michael Guravage]

Greetings,

I'm typesetting an address book whose addresses are in XML. A typical entry
has this structure:

  


  
  
  

  

initials and birthday are required, first_name can be left blank and email,
mobile and maiden_name are optional.

I've written a macro (name) to compose the name, i.e. initials, first_name
(maiden_name), and another macro (nameemaillink) to make the name a link
associated with an email address.

% Derive an individual's name
\def\name#1%
  {\ifxmlattempty{#1}{first_name} {\xmlatt{#1}{initials}} \else
{\xmlatt{#1}{initials}, \xmlatt{#1}{first_name}} \fi
   \ifxmlattempty{#1}{maiden_name} {} \else {
\tfxx(\xmlatt{#1}{maiden_name})} \fi}

% Create a mailto:link that associates a individual's name with their email
address.
\def\nameemaillink#1%
  {\ifxmlattempty{#1}{email} {\name{#1}} \else {\goto{\name{#1}}
[url(mailto:\xmlatt{#1}{email})]} \fi}

I thought I was done when I noticed that a composed name with an empty
first name, with or without an email address, is slightly indented. In the
mwe Moe and Curly, without first names, are indented; while Shemp and
Michael aren't.

That the undesired indentation/alignment is dependent on the presence of a
first name is baffling.  After this long description, if someone would look
at the code and tell me where I've gone wrong I would be very grateful. The
interesting bits begin on lines 8 and 12 in xml.tex.

Michael

[NTG-context] removing whitespace

[Michael Guravage]

In the example below I pass the macro a string with a space, but the space
should not appear in the url.

I've tried using \ctxlua to invoke string substitution, but without
success. What is the proper way to remove this space, and to perform string
manipulation more generally?

\setupinteraction[state=start]

\def\squeeze#1%
  {\goto{#1}[url(tel:#1)]}

\starttext
  Call \squeeze{01234 56789}
\stoptext

[NTG-context] Testing whether an XML attribute exists

[Michael Guravage]

Hi,

I am typesetting a very simple address list whose source is written in
XML.  Typesetting choices need to be made dependent on the presence of
various attributes; consider the following  element.



If the prefix attribute exists I'l like the name to appear as, e.g. 'Boer,
den."  The several XML attribute testing functions in the XML manual appear
to discriminate on an attribute's value. I tried  \xmldoifnotatt in an
attempt to say, "TRUE if prefix does not match an empty string",  since I
am not interested in the attribute's value but only whether or not it
exists. The code below doesn't work. If someone who knows why it doesn't
work would enlighten my ignorance I would be most grateful. A brief
explanation and example of \xmldoifatt, \xmldoifnotatt, and \xmldoifelseatt
would be exceedingly helpful.

\startxmlsetups xml:list:family
  {\bf \xmlatt{#1}{surname} \xmldoifnotatt{#1, prefix, ''} {,
\xmlatt{#1}{prefix}}} \crlf
  \xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups

I have attached three files below: an XML address list, the ConTeXt source
file and the typeset result.

Re: [NTG-context] How to place text before a table inside a column environment

[Michael Guravage]

Thanks for the suggestion.

I've already tried columnsets. With or without grid=yes, with or without a
columnspan, using columnsets produces the following log even though the
table fits on one page.

pages   > flushing realpage 1, userpage 1, subpage 1

[NTG-context] How to place text before a table inside a column environment

[Michael Guravage]

I have created a table and placed it inside a columns environment; which
works as advertised. However, if I place any text before the column
environment, the columns break. More clearly stated, only one column
appears on the first table page; whereas two columns resume on subsequent
pages. I have attached a mwe where you can use --mode=title to invoke the
broken columns.

Any advice on how to place text above the columns environment would be
gratefully received.

With kind regards,

Michael

Re: [NTG-context] quotes potruding out in the left margin

[Michael Guravage]

If you were to add a start-stopquotation block to Wolfgang's example, you'd
see that the resulting paragraph has lost its narrowness. Is there a way to
allow quotes to protrude into the left margin while preserving the
narrowness of start-stopquotation blocks? My own solution is not to
\setupquotation[method=font] but to define a delimited text environment
whose method=font, and use it when a paragraph begins with a quotation.

I have attached my own mwe. You can toggle the \setquotation command with
--mode=font.

Does anyone have a more elegant, or better yet, a correct solution?

With kind regards,

Michael

[NTG-context] LMTX and my custom typescripts

[Michael Guravage]

Yesterday I installed a new LMTX instance *ex nihilo*. Unfortunately, the
new instance will not load my typescripts. My several commercial fonts and
the typescripts I wrote for them reside in the texmf-project tree, along
with a style file that loads them. I load the style file in my source files
with the \environment command.

The files in texmf-project are properly indexed. I know this, because the
style file's name appears in the log, because I can list the fonts with mtxrun
--script fonts --list --files --all --pattern=Dolly*, and because he style
file evokes \showframe and \showgrid; the result of which I see in the
typeset results.

Regardless of whether a typescript files, e.g. type-DollyPro.tex, is in the
texmf-tree or in the same directory as the ConTeXt source file, evoking
\usetypescriptfile[type-DollyPro] fails. The log says:

fonts   > typescripts > unknown library 'DollyPro'
fonts   > typescripts > unknown library 'DollyPro'

However, including the typescripts in the ConTeXt source file succeeds;
which would seem to imply that my typescript definitions are correct.

Using an old instance: LMTX LuaTeX 2.03 20191227 + ConTeXt MkIV 2019.12.27
19:26, loading the typescript via the style file works as expected.

I regret that my mwe remains academic, since you need the Dolly font to run
it.

Any encouragement in how to resolve this would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

Michael

[NTG-context] Protruding quotation marks obviate narrowed quotations

[Michael Guravage]

Several months ago I posed the following question.

When I start a paragraph with a \quote or a \quotation the left quotemark
does not protrude, but when I use Unicode quotes it does. I would prefer to
use the commands. Any suggestions on how I can achieve proper left
protrusion without resorting to Unicode characters?

Wolfgang suggested the following lines of code; which worked perfically.

\setupquotation [method=font]
\setupquote [method=font]

Returning to this project after several months I observe that when I use a
\start- stopquotation environment, the quotation is not narrowed. The
\setupquotation command obviously affects both the \quotation command and
\start- stopquotation environment.

Is there an elegant way to apply the \setupquotation command and retain the
quotation indentation?

Cheers,
Michael

[NTG-context] \startquotation and citations

[Michael Guravage]

Greetings,

I would like to add a citation to a block quotation. Wolfgang proposed a
solution back
in May 2011. With \star-stopquotation, the left quotation mark protrudes to
the left of the text. With Wolfgang's solution, the quotation marks are
aligned with the text. For consistency's sake, I need cited and non-cited
quotations to appear alike.

A lot has changed in the last nine years. Is there a newer way to
achieve this behavior?

Cheers,

Michael

[NTG-context] Modifying an existing letter style

[Michael Guravage]

I am typesetting a letter using Wolfgang's letter module. I have a
requirement that is not satisfied by any of the existing styles, namely
that the to-address, i.e. the address, and the from-address, i.e., the
header, need to start at the same height and be positioned next to one
another. I am using the modified style and am trying to adjust the layout
via he \setupletterstyle command without success.

I have look at the sources and have seen how the elements of the various
styles are stacked.  All styles use the default style, which
defines lefthead and righthead elements, but only the din styles and those
styles derived from them seem to use these elements.

Is there any way to acheive the required side-by-side layout short of
cobbling together my own style? Any helpful advice would be greatly
appreciated.

Re: [NTG-context] Learning about Kerning

Hi,

The appearance of a gap before the letter T has nothing to do with kerning
per se, but with my use of smallcaps and kerning.

I solved my problem by defining a font feature and applying it with the
\setff command as described on the wiki.

\setuplayout[header=0pt, footer=0pt]
\setupstretched[width=6.25cm]

\definefontfeature[smallcapitals] [smcp=yes]

I am trying to use kerning in subject titles. \kernchracters works pretty
good, but as you can see in the attached example, there is a gap before the

If somebody can enlighten me how to properly use kerning in this situation,

[NTG-context] Resizing multi-line fill-in field

[Michael Guravage]

I am re-posting a previous question.

Is it possible to increase the height of a multi-line fill-in field when
the cumulative height of the lines typed into it exceeds the field's
initial height?

Here's an example where the field's initial height in 10em.

\usemodule[fields]
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\setupfield
  [TextSetup]
  [width=\textwidth, height=10em, background=screen, backgroundscreen=.97,
frame=off]
\definefield [Block] [text] [TextSetup] [] [What's on your mind?]

\starttext
  \field [Block] [type here]
\stoptext

I have a situation where the amount of text typed into various fields will
vary, but it is inappropriate to reserve a large block of space for each
field.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[NTG-context] PDF Forms - expanding multi-line text fields

[Michael Guravage]

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?

[NTG-context] Stepper code fails

[Michael Guravage]

The Stepper example on the wiki,
<http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Stepper>from which the following
snippet comes,

\usemodule[pre-60] % use the stepper
\setuppapersize[S6][S6]

\defineoverlay[invoke] [\overlaybutton{InvokeStepper}]
\setupbackgrounds[text] [background=invoke]
\setupinteraction[state=start,click=off]

\starttext
ex nihilo
\stoptext


fails here with the following error:

! LuaTeX error
...eXt-beta/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/lpdf-mis.lua:146: attempt to
call upvalue 'pdfaction' (a nil value)
stack traceback:

...eXt-beta/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/lpdf-ini.lua:722: in
function 'finalizepage'
[string "\latelua "]:1: in main chunk.


Though I am using the latest beta, I do not think this problem caused by
changes in the latest release. I have attached the log file for those who
are interested. Any suggestions how to rectify this problem would be much
appreciated.

[NTG-context] typesetting verbatim code snippets in xml mkiv

[Michael Guravage]

In attempting to use Thomas's xml presentation style he presented at C5M, I
would like to add the ability to typeset verbatim code snippets. In the
xml:code setup example below, using commands like
\startlinenumbering-\stoplinenumbering work fine, but using
\starttyping-\stoptyping breaks. Can someone please enlighten me as to the
correct way to accomplish this sort of thing?


\startxmlsetups xml:codesetups
  \xmlsetsetup{#1}{*}{-}
  \xmlsetsetup{#1}{document|code}{xml:*}
\stopxmlsetups

\xmlregistersetup{xml:codesetups}

% document
\startxmlsetups xml:document
  \xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups

% xml code
\startxmlsetups xml:code
  \starttyping
\xmlflush{#1}
  \stoptyping
\stopxmlsetups

[NTG-context] endnotes, imposition and recurselevel

[Michael Guravage]

I am typesetting an article where the footnotes should be collected as
endnotes. I am also using imposition to arrange the article as a booklet.

When using the default location 'page', footnotes work as expected. But
when I change the location to 'text' and use \placefootnotes to produce the
endnotes, the compilation fails. Here is an example document that attempts
the same thing.  Note that the paragraph/footnote loop is performed nine
times. If you compile as is, i.e., no imposition, everything works as
expected. But add --mode=imposition to apply imposition and the compilation
fails.

Now decrease the number of iterations from nine to eight and the behaviour
is reversed. The imposition will succeed and the straight compile will
fail. Stranger yet, If you remove the subject structure, compiling with
eight iterations succeeds with or without imposition, and compiling with
nine iterations fails with or without imposition.  This all happens in the
ConTeXt from 2011.07.26. Switching to the ConTeXt from 2012.01.16
everything compiles, but the runs using imposition produce only blank pages.

Regardless of what I try, I cannot get endnotes and imposition to
cooperate. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[NTG-context] Lettrine misbehaving in beta

If you run the following example with the current beta you will see that

[NTG-context] Lettrine and colors

[Michael Guravage]

Greetings,

It appears that specifying a FontHook in setuplettrine that inclues a color
simply breaks. This feature worked with ConTeXt from 2011.07.26, but breaks
in ConTeXt from 2012.01.09. Any suggestions how to resolve this would be
mightily appreciated.

Here is a minimal example:

\usemodule[lettrine]

\setuplettrine [FontHook={\color[red]}]

\starttext

  \lettrine{W}{e thrive} in information||thick worlds because of our
  marvelous and everyday capacity to select, edit, single out,

[NTG-context] page number placement in multiline TOC entry

Greetings,

At the recent ConTeXt workshop someone mentioned that they had achieved
placing a pagenumber to the right of the first line of a multiline table of
contents entry. Can anyone describe how to acomplish this?

[NTG-context] StretchedBox broken in mkiv

[Michael Guravage]

Several years ago Hans cooked up a fix using \CapStretch that allowed me to
stretch words. That early version of \stretchedbox appeared in later ConTeXt
versions as \StretchedBox as described in strc-sec.mkii and strc-ren.mkiv.
This feature worked in the ConTeXt version dated 2011.07.26, but does not
work in my current ConTeXt version dated 2011.09.10. I have attached an
example file that works with mkii and with earlier mkiv versions, but not
with the current mkiv.

I am curious to know what has changed to break this functionality.
Initially, I thought it had to do with \setuphead's definition of
'deeptextcommand', but since there are no difference in the files
strc-sec-mkii and strc-ren.mkiv between these two releases, the reason must
lie elsewhere. If anyone can explain what has changed, an more importantly
how to reinstate it, I would be most grateful.

With kind regards,

Michael Guravage

Hello David,

To obviate figure numbers use the setupcaptions command, e.g. 

\setupcaptions [number=no]

You can find a complete description of the command with texshow web on the 
ConTeXt wiki: , or on page 224 of the context 
manual.

Cheers,

Michael
