\setuppageshift and \setuparranging

\setuppageshift and \setuparranging

[Nicolas Girard]

Hi,
I'm testing ConTeXt's imposition abilities on a cd booket project.
I'd like pages to be shifted in order to compensate paper thickness.
Running the following code leads to pages that are properly shifted ;
but when uncommenting the line with \setuparranging, pages aren't
shifted any longer.
What's wrong with my code ?
Thanks in advance,
Nicolas


\setuppapersize[CD][A4]
\definepageshift[test][horizontal][10pt,20pt,30pt,40pt,50pt]
\setuppageshift[test]
\setuplayout[margin=5mm,marking=on,location=middle]
%\setuparranging[2*2*4,rotated]
\setuppageshift[test]
\showframe
\starttext
\dorecurse{14}{\input tufte}
\stoptext

Hi Nicolas,

Page shifting is working properly here, however you need to setup the  
shifting as:

\definepageshift[test][horizontal][30pt,-30pt,20pt,-20pt,10pt,-10pt, 
0pt,0pt,0pt,0pt,10pt,-10pt,+20pt,-20pt,30pt,-30pt]

The page shifting mechanism is looping over the definition. i.e. you  
have to specify what kind of shift you want for each page in a  
section (i.e. 16 parameters in this case).

Then you will have tell ConTeXt:

\setuppageshift[paper][test]

The [paper] option is needed in arranging-mode.

Kind regards

Willi

Hi Willi,
thanks for your answer, I could make it work too.
I have several additional questions regarding imposition ; i'll post
them in new threads.
Cheers,
Nicolas
