cannot set "et al." to italic

cannot set "et al." to italic

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 425 bytes --]

Hi all,

When using the bibltx module, I want to make the otherstext "et al." italic.
I have tried

\setupcite[authoryears][otherstext={\it et al.}]

but no luck.

After looking in to the mailing list archive, I find that the italic style
seems have been made default for most recent bibliography modules(am I
right?). I just want to do that in my setup, can I? Or, do I have to update
my bibliography modules?

Thanks,

Roy

That should work. Can you post a minimal example file where it doesn't?

Hi Taco,

The bibliography related code are as following. I have tried removing all
other setups, the problems still remains. The ConTeXt I am using is the one
shipped with debian etch TeXlive, is that version too old?

\usemodule[bib]
\usemodule[bibltx]
\setupbibtex[database=nanomechanics, sort=author]
\setuppublications[sorttype=bbl, alternative=apa]
\setupcite[authoryears][otherstext={\it et al.}]
\setupcite[author][left=,right=,otherstext={\it et al.}]

I was specifically looking for a *complete* test file that
I could run. This preamble does not help me in finding the
problem because I don't see the actual usage.

In any case, your context should not be too old.

Best, Taco

Hi Taco,

Here is the minimum tex code and the bib file. My context version is
2005.10.27. Sorry for the inconvenience.

\chapter{Introduction}
Submicron materials are now found to exhibit extreme large yield strength
as high as 10 times when compared with their bulk counterparts, which is
known as the size effect of strength. This is referred to an increase
of flow stress at some infinite strain, in terms of hardness obtained from
nanoindentation experiments\cite[Pethica, Doerner, Stelmashenko, Ma,
McElhaney, Lim, LiuNgan], or torsional strength obtained from twisting
test on small whiskers\cite[Fleck]. The explanation for this, which
has gained extensive acceptance, is the existence of strain gradient in
these deformation configurations\cite[Fleck].

Looks like I was wrong. The file processes with italics here.
It seems your context actually is too old, sorry about the
misinformation I gave earlier.

A warning beforehand: in the latest version, you do need

   \completepublications[criterium=all]

in the backmatter. I hope someone on the list will help you with
any other context updating issues, because I am off to the
EuroBachoTeX conference in an hour.

Best wishes,

Taco
