\setuplayout[location=duplex] not working? (probably since a year)

\setuplayout[location=duplex] not working? (probably since a year)

[Marco Pessotto]

Hello there. I'm messing around with imposition schemas and I think I've
hit a bug or a dropped feature (but documented in the printed manual).

Minimal example:

\setuppapersize[A5][A4]
\setuplayout[location=duplex]

\starttext
\dorecurse{20}{
\input knuth
}
\stoptext

As far as I can see, the duplex location is ignored, as the page is
always put in the left corner. Am I doing something wrong? The behaviour
is the same with the one-year-old ConTeXt from TeXlive2011.

You can set “location=doublesided” but “duplex” isn’t a valid argument and even then it works only when you have a double sided document.

\setuppapersize[A5][A4]
\setuplayout[location=doublesided]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\starttext
\dorecurse{20}{
\input knuth
}
\stoptext

Well, I took it from the printed manual (Layouts in ConTeXt, p.97), I
didn't invent it myself.

This indeed works. Thanks.

there is no 'duplex' in context, only 'doublesided'

Ok, this just means there is an error in the “Layout in ConTeXt” manual,
p.97. Do you want me to create an Errata page on the wiki?

ok (one for the fonts manual and one for layout)

Done

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Fonts_in_ConTeXt_Errata (empty)

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Layouts_in_ConTeXt_Errata (one item)

They should be linked from the homepage (for that I don't have the
supercow powers), near the manual links, to make sense.

Best wishes.
