I have a small problem with ConTeXt's floating meachnism. There are two
wide pictures and other narrow pictures in columns, ConTeXt breaks the
first page after the first wide picture.
\midaligned{\framed[frame=off]{\externalfigure[p1_7.pdf][factor=fit]}}
\midaligned{\framed[frame=off]{\externalfigure[p2_1.pdf][factor=fit]}}
\startcolumns[n=3,distance=4mm,balance=no]
\midaligned{\framed[frame=off]{\externalfigure[p2_2.pdf]}}
\midaligned{\framed[frame=off]{\externalfigure[p2_3.pdf]}}
\midaligned{\framed[frame=off]{\externalfigure[p2_4.pdf]}}
\stopcolumns
In this situation the first wide picture goes to the first page, the
second to the second page and the rest to the third page (th second
picture is just 2cm tall, the columns 10cm on an A4 page). When I
inserted the \page command after the first picture, the second picture
and the columns are placed well on the second page. If I use the
\placefigure[here,force,none] statement, the second picture goes to the
third page.
It seems to be a ConTeXt-error(?)
Greetings

(1) no need for framed here (now you get funny margins) (2) factor is fit uses the current hsize and available vertical space, and since you don't use a par after midaligned, the available space is not calculated as you expect; (tex only updates pagetotal/goal after a par normally the factor=fit is used in combination with \placefigure Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

My problem is: TeX floats a low picture to a new page and puts a pagebreak after that picture. > normally the factor=fit is used in combination with \placefigure Some pictures are wider then the pagewidth, I used both factor=fit and factor=max, and I got everytime the correct size. The threecolumn layout works just without \placefigure. I posted an example, please, look it closer. Greetings Bence ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

There is no way for us to see how large the figures are? Please use something like \midaligned{\framed[width=10cm,height=5cm]{XYZ}} or \blackrule[...] or... and repost your problem. And please a complete but minimal file so we can see what is wrong. Perhaps Hans knows what is going on whithout an example, but I guess that for most other people that are not "thinking in ConTeXt" it is impossible to make a wild guess.

Thanks, so I made a complete example just with \framed. Because I am using the large pictures with the option factor=fit, the width and height values are recalculated. \setuplayout[% topspace=10mm, backspace=10mm, header=15mm, footer=0mm, width=middle, height=middle, location=middle] \setuppagenumbering[location={}] \setupframedtexts[% width=broad, frame=off, bottomframe=on, offset=4pt] \setupbodyfont[pos,10pt] \setupheadertexts[\startframedtext\vbox{{\bf Newspaper}\hfill --}\vbox{2003. március 20.\hfill \pagenumber}\stopframedtext] \starttext \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=broad,height=40.41818182mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=broad,height=23.26530612mm]{picture}} \startcolumns[n=3,distance=4mm,balance=no] \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=54.32777778mm,height=115.3583333mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=53.975mm,height=114.3mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=54.68055556mm,height=114.6527778mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=55.03333333mm,height=113.9472222mm]{picture}} \stopcolumns \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=broad,height=133.7147335mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=broad,height=15.13674197mm]{picture}} \startcolumns[n=3,distance=4mm,balance=no] \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=53.62222222mm,height=49.03611111mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=54.68055556mm,height=48.33055556mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=54.68055556mm,height=48.33055556mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=54.68055556mm,height=48.68333333mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=53.975mm,height=47.97777778mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=56.44444444mm,height=29.28055556mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=40.21666667mm,height=45.15555556mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=40.56944444mm,height=95.60277778mm]{picture}} \midaligned{\framed[frame=on,width=39.86388889mm,height=86.43055556mm]{picture}} \stopcolumns \stoptext And a small part from the log: {/usr/local/teTeX/texmf-local/dvips/base/ec.enc}</usr/local/teTeX/texmf/fonts /type1/urw/times/utmr8a.pfb></usr/local/teTeX/texmf/fonts/type1/urw/times/utmb8 a.pfb> Output written on p.pdf (4 pages, 23683 bytes).

This TeX-file is an outcome of a script, so I can not include the \page command. Without this problem the script works fine with ConTeXt.
