issue with defined font feature

issue with defined font feature

[Pablo Rodriguez]

Dear list,

I have the following sample:

  \definefontfeature
    [standarddigits]
    [lnum=yes,
     tlig=no]
  \definefontfamily
      [anothermpface]
      [rm]
      [Gabriola]
      [features={default}]
  \definefontfamily
      [anothermpface]
      [ss]
      [Gabriola]
      [features={default, standarddigits}]
  \definefontfamily
      [anothermpface]
      [tt]
      [Gabriola]
      [features={standarddigits}]
  \setupbodyfont[anothermpface]
  \starttext
  \startTEXpage[offset=1em]
  123324234 --\\
  \ss 12123 -- 123\\
  \tt 12123 -- 123
  \stopTEXpage
  \stoptext

I’m not being able to get both lnum and no en-dashes: the defined font
feature seems to require the default and I cannot get en-dashes disabled
when the default font feature set is enabled.

Does anyone what I am doing wrong here?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

You need "script=auto" (or a valid argument for the script key) in your 
font features for the monospaced font.

Another option is to use "features={always,standarddigits}" but this 
enables kerning and ligatures.

Many thanks for your reply, Wolfgang.

It works like a charm.
