I googled and did found Wolfgang's solution (http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20110906.202722.f501f115.en.html) but it's just too simple and cannot be used for production. Side notes will cluttered or fall out of pages. LaTeX does provide a good solution for this style. I am wondering if this is possible to do in context. I am also curious to know simple way to do multiple float style in ConTeXt (like graphics spanning text and margin and many others).

All of the mechanisms are added at different times in the process to make from text a page. Margindata (\inmargin etc.) is added to the line where you have it in your and doesn’t move from this position but you prevent overlapping of two different texts in the line with “stack=yes”.

Hi
Today's beta breaks synonyms. The first run is fine, the second one
fails with an
! Undefined control sequence.
Example:
\abbreviation {LOREM} {Lorem Ipsum}
\starttext
\placelistofabbreviations
\LOREM\infull{LOREM}
\stoptext

Nice work! Decent and nice design, good typesetting, I assume some hand work which of course cannot be avoided to make the result pleasing. Just two remarks to the layout. Figure descriptions set in to the block (narrow column) produces too large spaces in the lines often. Ragged text would suit it better, I think.

The example thesis has a lot of hand work. However, in the end I would like to have something that looks 95% instead of 100%, but fully automatic. Then, I could output the same text in different output formats (book, handouts for every chapter, e-reader, ...), tweaking every file would cost too much time. > Just two remarks to the layout. Figure descriptions set in to the block (narrow column) produces too large spaces in the lines often. Ragged text would suit it better, I think. Seven Thesis were made, so far, and everyone plays a little with the overall design to see how things look when tweaked a little. But justified is not ideal, I agree. > > Side notes set ragged left (rigth justyfied) on left pages are quite difficult to read, I would make them ragged right (left justified) on all pages and. I guess you want to say [...] it would [not] break the overall design at all ;) I like the look of ragged outer when just looking at a double page from far. It does make reading more difficult. I still cannot decide. In the end legibility should be more important, so ragged right is better like you said. > > Just wondering, why is Optima-Regular embeded so many times? We wanted to have a sans serif font for the viewgraphs that matches the Palatino (orig. 1948). So we went for Optima (1952-1955 and also from Hermann Zapf). Wikipedia says "Optima's capitals (like Palatino's) are directly derived from the classic Roman monumental capital model [...]". I think, it does look good together. We also wanted a TeX Gyre font as main font, so that it is available on every system. > > Regards, > > Jano Aditya Mahajan contextified the github sources. It might be good to download the new stuff.

It does make reading more difficult. I still cannot decide. In the end legibility should be more important, so ragged right is better like you said. Sure, I wanted to say: "it would not break the overall design at all" :) >> Just wondering, why is Optima-Regular embeded so many times? > > We wanted to have a sans serif font for the viewgraphs that matches the Palatino (orig. 1948). So we went for Optima (1952-1955 and also from Hermann Zapf). Wikipedia says "Optima's capitals (like Palatino's) are directly derived from the classic Roman monumental capital model [...]". I think, it does look good together. We also wanted a TeX Gyre font as main font, so that it is available on every system. Of course a good choice, but I meant something different. When I have a look at the Properties of the document in the Adobe Reader or just list the fonts with "pdffonts" command on linux, then Optima-Regular is listed 141 times. Figure labels use sans serif, so I'm wondering why so many times the font is included.
