Hallo!

This doesn't work here, too!

The wiki said it should work. So, maybe there ist something broken in 
the meantime.

In 'page-lay.tex' I found something with

\setuplayout[odd][state=stop]
\setuplayout[even][state=stop]

so

a.) Not alone \definelayout but also \setuplayout should work with 
odd|even.
b.) Because there is something to stop here, there may be some need 
to start it?

Btw. \definelayout[1][] doesn't work too.

Yes, Hans sent me off-list a patch that works fine with the beta  
2006.08.22 release. The given example is:

\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]

\setuplayout         [width=11cm]
\definelayout [odd]  [backspace=1cm]
\definelayout [even] [backspace=4cm]
\definelayout [5]    [backspace=5cm]
\definelayout [6]    [backspace=5cm]
\definelayout [-2]   [backspace=0cm,cutspace=0cm]
\definelayout [last] [backspace=0cm,cutspace=0cm]

\checkcurrentlayout \showframe

\starttext
   \dorecurse{20} {\input knuth \endgraf \input tufte \endgraf}
\stoptext

Thanks again to Hans that I guess will include it in a next release.

Layout and textwidth/textmargin

[Horacio Suarez]

May I define and setup two diferents layouts and swicht between them?

I want a bigger textwidth in the last 6 chapters.

Thankyou very much.

But it doesn't work. In the following case it is simply ignored (default  
setting used). I've this behaviour with live context too. What's wrong?

\setuplayout[odd]
   [width=middle,
    backspace=7cm,
    cutspace=5cm]

\setuplayout[even]
   [backspace=8cm,
    cutspace=4cm,
    width=middle]

\starttext

\section{Hello}
\input knuth \endgraf

Re: Layout and textwidth/textmargin

[Willi Egger]

Hi,

To me it should not be necessary to define odd and even layouts for your 
purposes. (Of course I stand corrected!)

If you choose \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] the page 
layout is swapped automatically.
For the realisation of the titles sticking into the "margin" one should 
be able to use \setuphead[section,subsection][command=...]

This would look then like this:

\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]

\setuplayout
    [backspace=2cm,
    leftmargin=5cm,
    rightmargin=7cm]

\setupnarrower[left=3cm]
\setuphead[section,subsection][after={\startnarrower[left]}]

\showframe
\starttext
\section{Hello}
\setuphead[section][before=\stopnarrower]
    \input knuth \par
\subsection{Sub Hello}
\setuphead[subsection][before=\stopnarrower]
     \input tufte \par
\dorecurse{4}{
    \section{Hello}
         \input knuth \endgraf
    \subsection{Sub Hello}
         \input tufte \endgraf}
\stoptext

I admit, this is not yet working correctly, but I can't find the key at 
the moment ;-)

Well, I start from the beginning with odd/even layout setting, and the  
following does not work. The behaviour I see is that only the odd setting  
is used. What is wrong in there?

\definelayout[odd]
   [width=middle,
    backspace=7cm,
    cutspace=5cm]

\definelayout[even]
   [backspace=8cm,
    cutspace=2cm,
    width=middle]

\setuplayout

%\showlayout

\starttext
\dorecurse{4}{
\section{Hello}
\input knuth \endgraf
\subsection{Sub Hello}
\input tufte \endgraf}
\stoptext

Layout and textwidth/textmargin

[nico]

Hello,

I wonder if it is possible to setup a layout with these requirements:

- it can be doublesided, that is, when doublesided the left margin (LM)  
and right margin (RM) are different and mirrored on right/left pages.

- the headings (section, etc.) start just after the left margin.

- the text body has an extra left text margin (TM) that is not mirrored.

Here is an example of the expected output in doublesided mode:

Left Page:
     LM      TM                          RM
|<--7--><-- 8-->                      <-5->|
|       1. This is a Title                 |
|                                          |
|               This is the text body      |
|               that has a bigger left     |
|               margin.                    |

Right Page:

    RM    TM                            LM
|<-5-><-- 8-->                      <--7-->|
|             The test continues on        |
|             This page.                   |
|                                          |
|     2. Another Title                     |
|                                          |

For singlesided documents I can play with a setup like this (the  
margindistances should be taken into account too):

\setuphead[section][margin=-TM]
\setuplayout[leftmargin=TM+LM,
              rightmargin=RM,
              backspace=TM+LM,
              width=\paperwidth-(RM+TM+LM)]

For doublesided documents I thought about using textwidth or textmargin,  
but in this case the text margin is applied on left and right (the text is  
in the middle).

Should I play with other setup parameters? What is the best way to achieve  
this?

Thanks for any hint,

Regards,
BG
