combinations

[Hans Hagen]

Hi,

As follow up on the combinations tread I made this:

\useMPlibrary[dum]

\starttext

\definecombination[mycombi][alternative=label]

\setuplabel[combination:mycombi][text={Item 
},numberconversion=character,stopper=!]

\startcombination[mycombi][2*2]
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]}
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]}
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]}
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]}
\stopcombination

\blank[2*big]

\startcombination[mycombi][nx=2,ny=1,continue=yes]
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]}
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]}
\stopcombination

\blank[2*big]

\startcombination[mycombi][alternative=text,nx=2,ny=2]
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]} {alpha}
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]} {beta}
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]} {gamma}
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]} {delta}
\stopcombination

\blank[2*big]

\startcombination[mycombi][2*2]
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]}
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]}
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]}
     {\externalfigure[dummy][width=4cm,height=1cm]}
\stopcombination

\stoptext

A relative simple extension but probably useful.

Re: combinations

[Sietse Brouwer]

Hi Hans,

Is the following correct?
(1) [alternative=...] is a new key for \definecombination

(2) \definecombination[mycombiA][alternative=text] means you specify
the combination's contents as item, caption, item, caption, etc.

\startcombination[mycombiA][nx=2,ny=1]
     {item}{caption}
     {another item}{another caption}
\stopcombination

(3) \definecombination[mycombiB][alternative=label] means you specify
the combination's contents as item, item, item, etc.
\startcombination[mycombiB][nx=2,ny=1]
     {item}
     {another item}
\stopcombination
and the caption (label) will be placed automatically.

(4) You can setup the mycombiB labels like so:
\setuplabel[combination:mycombiB][
    text={Item },
    numberconversion=character,
    stopper=!
]
(If you do not setup the mycombiB label, each item's label will be a
bold number.)

Cheers,
Sietse

Yes but you can also change the alternative with \startcombination.

Yes, alternative=text is the old combination mechanism which takes two
arguments for each entry for the content and the caption.

Yes.

When you don’t set individual settings for a combination label the global
values from \setuplabel are used which are bold text and numbers.

Perhaps the default for the label could be numberconversion=character
--- subfigures are more commonly numbered a, b, c, I think.

To set default values it can be usefull to add a unnamed “combination” label, i.e.

  \definelabel[\v!combination]

and \definecombination is changed to

\appendtoks
    \edef\p_pack_combinations_alternative{\combinationparameter\c!alternative}%
    \setfalse\c_str_define_commands_label % no helper commands
    \ifx\currentcombinationparent\empty
-     \normalexpanded{\definelabel[\v!combination:\currentcombination]}[\c!text=]%
+     \normalexpanded{\definelabel[\v!combination:\currentcombination][\v!combination]}[\c!text=]%
    \else
      \normalexpanded{\definelabel[\v!combination:\currentcombination][\currentcombinationparent]}[\c!text=]%
    \fi
\to \everydefinecombination

ok, but

     \normalexpanded
       {\definelabel
          [\v!combination:\currentcombination]%
 
[\v!combination\ifx\currentcombinationparent\empty\else:\currentcombinationparent\fi]}%

How about making the first bracket pair optional if key-value
options are passed? This would allow for the following syntax:

\starttext

%% works:
%% \startcombination [][nx=3, ny=1]

%% suggestion, fails at the moment
\startcombination [nx=3, ny=1]
  {a}{x}
  {b}{x}
  {c}{x}
\stopcombination

\stoptext

Hi list,

The following MWE is giving me two photos under each other, not beside 
each. What am I doing wrong?

Julian


\startplacefigure[location=here]
\setupcombination[distance=0mm,after=]
{\startcombination[2*1]
{\externalfigure[res1.jpg][width=.4\textwidth]}
{\externalfigure[res2.jpg][width=.4\textwidth]} \stopcombination}

Hi Julian,

for me first reply ever with a suggestion:

You have to set a caption

https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/startcombination

That worked fine for me:

\startplacefigure[location=here]
   \setupcombination[distance=0mm,after=]
   {\startcombination[2*1]
     {\externalfigure[res1.jpg][width=.4\textwidth]} {pic 1}
     {\externalfigure[res2.jpg][width=.4\textwidth]} {pic 2}
   \stopcombination}
\stopplacefigure

Best, Benny

Re: combinations

Wonderful Benny! Congrats on your first ever suggestion. I didn't need a 
caption so I had left it out, but I see that I now need at least an 
empty {} after each item for it to work.

Thanks

Julian

You can also do this:

\startplacefigure[location=here]
     \startcombination[distance=2mm,after=,nx=2,ny=1,location=middle]
         \startcontent
             \externalfigure[mill.png]  [width=.4\textwidth]

         \startcontent
             \externalfigure[hacker.jpg][width=.4\textwidth]
         \stopcontent
         \startcaption
             pic 2
         \stopcaption
     \stopcombination

Hello everybody,

this example given by Hans is interesting. I added it to the Wiki to the command \startcombination.

Combinations

[Pepe Barbe]

Hello everyone,

I have 14 graphs that I want to arrange in a single page. I've found
the best wat to do that is with a 3 by 5 combination. Yet, it would
look better if I had a 3 by 4 combination and a 2 by 1 centered
underneath the preveious. Is there some simple way to do that?

Also, a while ago I asked about the font size of the captions in the
combinations, which wasn't being respected in Math mode. I've tried in
the latest beta and the problem persists. Any ideas?

Example:

\setupcaptions[ headstyle=\ss\bf,style=\tfx ]
\setupcombinations[ style=\tfx\em ]

\starttext

\placefigure [center] {Combination Caption}
       \startcombination [2*1]
               {\framed[height=.45\textwidth,width=.45\textwidth]{My Graphic
1}}{Text: Test. Math: $Test$}
               {\framed[height=.45\textwidth,width=.45\textwidth]{My Graphic
2}}{Text: Test. Math: $Test$}
       \stopcombination

\stoptext

Thanks,
Pepe

Not that I know of. It may be possible to expand \start stop 
combination to work with

\startcombination[3*4,2*1] but then you will have to count on your 
own.

Perhaps, you can define (untested)

\def\resetcombination{\stopcomination\startcombination} and then

\startcombination[3*4]
  ....
  ....
\resetcombination[2*1]
....
....
\stopcombination

The problem, if any, is with \tfx. This demonstrates it

\tfx Test $Test$

Perhaps a cleaner way to do this is

\switchtobodyfont[small] Test $Test$

I do not know why is this not equivalent to

\small Test $Test$

Aditya,

Thanks for the help.

That is what I wanted to avoid, I don't know ConTeXt very well, and less TeX.

I tried a similar idea. But it didn't work. If I start with 2*1 and
then 3*4 it shows everything but the first two are not centered, so
its the same. If I do 3*4 and then 2*1 it just shows the 3*4 and thend
the figure ends for some reason.

That was because you do not have proper grouping in your \placefigure 
definition. Try

\placefigure[tag][here] {Caption}
{% <-- Note this
\startcombination[3*4]
....
\stopcombination
\startcombination[2*1]
....
\stopcombination
} %<---- Note this

Thanks. It does work, but is the same as doing 3*5. The last line does
not show centered.

You can center it on your own by \midaligned.

\placefigure {Combinations}
{
\startcombination [3*4]
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{1}
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{2}
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{3}
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{4}
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{5}
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{6}
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{7}
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{8}
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{9}
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{10}
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{11}
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{12}
\stopcombination
\blank[medium] %<-- This is the default inbetween for
%              \setupcombinations
\midaligned{\startcombination[2*1]
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{1}
   {\externalfigure[unknown]}{2}
\stopcombination}}

Thanks, works like a charm.

[Hans Hagen]

Hi,

The next release will provide more control over combinations:

   \setupcombinations[align=right,location={top,left}]

i.e. location (top,bottom,middle,left,right) concerns the top thing, the 
alignment (left,right,middle with right being raggedright) the caption

also new: \placefloat[leftmargin]{}{} and \placefloat[leftmargin,2*-line]{}{}

(there is more new, but that's experimental)

this sounds like "hidden for unexperienced TeX users". Is it possible
to give more detailed release notes, even for experimental features? I
know, this takes much more of your time, but IMO it could provide you
more/better feetback from "normal" ConTeXt users.

Best,
  Jens
