Message-ID: <51751F8A.3060905@gmx.de> (raw)

Hello,

thanks for the helpfull tipps. Only one wasn't working:

\defineexpandable\ColumnABii   {\ctxlua{context([==[\ColumnA 
+ \ColumnB]==])}}

ColumnABii: \ColumnABii

The result is:       ColumnABii: 30mm+ 40mm
And it should be ColumnABii: 70mm

And in the other cases I get back:  199.16928pt instead of 
70mm but this seems to be the same.

I think this calculating with dimension is not very well 
documented in the context-wiki.
Thus I would like to write a small article about 
"Calculating with dimension units" in the 
wiki.contextgarden.net to help others a bit.
Or is there already an article somewhere?

Regards
Jannis
