Hi Wolfgang,

my question was: Why is this \setvariables[tst][set=...
necessary at all. The following example worked without that.

\defineitemgroup[Tst]

\setupTst[1][n,\getvariable{tst}{broad}*broad]

\starttext

\startTst
\item text
\stopTst

\setvariables[tst][broad=5]

\startTst
\item text
\stopTst

\setvariables[tst][broad=9]

\startTst
\item text
\stopTst

% \showvariable{tst}{broad}
\stoptext

Wolfgang

Not sure but it could be possible \setvariables makes only a one level
expansion and in this case you get '\csname ...broad\endcsname*broad'
but not the the number itself.

Hello Wolfgang,

It works event without \setvariables:

\defineitemgroup[Tst]
\setupTst[1][n,\getvariable{tst}{broad}*broad]
\starttext
\setvariables[tst][broad=1]
\startTst
\item text
\stopTst
\setvariables[tst][broad=5]
\startTst
\item text
\stopTst
\stoptext

But why? I don't see any "\noexpand" in the definition of \getvariable...

Cheers, Peter

You are assuming I know how ;)

Nice solution, btw.

Taco,

don't you think it's better to show users a better alternative if possible?

\defineitemgroup[Tst]

\setvariables[tst][set={\setupTst[1][n,\getvariable{tst}{broad}*broad]}]

\starttext

\startTst
\item text
\stopTst

\setvariables[tst][broad=5]

\startTst
\item text
\stopTst

\stoptext

Wolfgang

! Undefined control sequence

[Wolfgang Werners-Lucchini]

Hallo,

I have a little problem which I can not solve.
The following example works with the definition
of \broad in position 1 and it fails in position 2.

-------------------------------------
% Position 1
% \def\broad{5*broad}

\defineitemgroup[Tst]
\setupitemgroup[Tst][1][n,\broad ]

% Position 2
\def\broad{5*broad}

\starttext
\startTst
\item Test
\stopTst
\stoptext
-------------------------------------

Why is this? And how can I make it work in position 2?

Wolfgang

Hi,

You are still using an old format file, not the one from
the new context you downloaded. You could try creating the
format files manually:

   $ su
   # texexec --make --all

That last line should probably have been:

In which case, you may be better off using the minimal Context tree
for Linux from the Pragma site.  (I think you said you were running
Debian, so the packages are bound to be old.)

You also need new pdfetex binary (at least 1.20). (TeXLive 2004, teTeX 3).
