Hi again,
I am reading a CSV file into ConTeXt which contains long DNA sequences (>> 40 characters) to place in xtables. So far, this works fine. However, I need to uppercase the entries and need to \tt them. When I do this inside \WORD however, they don’t hyphenate any more.
I’m using:
\defineseparatedlist
[mylist]
[
separator={,}, quotechar={"},
command=\mycommand
]
\define[2]\mycommand{
\startxrow
\startxcell o#1 \stopxcell
\startxcell 5’-{\tt\WORD{#2}}-3' \stopxcell
\stopxrow
}
Since I don’t have access to each entry, I cant place hyphenation marks directly. Is there a way to tell ConTeXt to hyphenate after say, 12 characters?
Thanks for your help.
Benjamin

So, I guess the questions boils down to how to define the second argument of \definebreakpoint[mybreaks][][nright=12,nleft=12,type=1] in this case or how to “deactivate” the default \setbreakpoints[compound]? > On 23 Apr 2020, at 20:46, Benjamin Buchmuller <benjamin.buchmuller@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi again, > > I am reading a CSV file into ConTeXt which contains long DNA sequences (>> 40 characters) to place in xtables.

If you are trying to do something else, please provide an MWE.
