Hi guys, I downloaded a sample presentation with component and example
presentation from a link off of ctxwiki. I will attach both files and a
premade PDF that shows what I mean.
So far I edited the component a little in display style, yet I don't know
why I can't get a simple table of content on the second slide.
In the component I found the following code:
\definehead
[slide]
[subject]
[
style=\ssbfc,
color=foreground:contrast,
alternative=middle,
page=yes
]
So I understand that the head called slide comes from the head subject,
which by default isn't shown in the table of content. So I searched ctxwiki
for table of content and modified the above setup to
\definehead
[slide]
[subject] % default: subject
[
style=\ssbfc,
color=foreground:contrast,
alternative=middle,
page=yes,
* incrementnumber=yes, % keep track of the number*
* number=no % but don't show it*
]
I also added the following line:
\setuplist[subject][width=2cm]
The example .tex then starts with
\starttext
\setvariables
...
\startslide
...
\stopslide
...
\stoptext
So I inserted another \startslide \stopslide with \placecontent in between:
\startslide[title={T.o.c.}]
\placecontent
\stopslide
Yet the rendered PDF shows only a blank page where the TOC is supposed to
be.
Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Sebastian

After fiddling around I found out why it didn't work: because \placecontent was *within* the subject that it had to print. Kind of a Gordian Knot or what was it called...? I modified my code a little, so that it looks better, but still one thing is missing... That's what my code looks like now: %D I copied the head settings to "title", so that it has the same style as the rest %D "title" will not be counted for TOC: \setuphead[title][style=\ssbfc, color=foreground:contrast, alternative=middle] \starttext \setvariables ... *\startstandardmakeup* %D else the content is placed at the very top, ignoring the header... (bad) * \title{Table of contents}* * \vfill* * \placecontent* * \vfill* *\stopstandardmakeup* \startslide[title={First Slide}] ... Yet the one thing I am missing is that the TOC is not in the middle of the page. I read some time ago that \vfill has no effect at the very beginning or the very end of a page. A suggestion was to place a "ghost box" or something like that at the end or top respectively of the document. Yet I can't finde the article anymore. Can anybody provide some help with this or is there maybe a more elegant way to solve the whole TOC situation?

I tried alternative=c with width, maxwidth, distance... I still can't set it tighter. Going from the far left to the far right is not good from the audience's POV. I saw some example *.tex from the CTX distribution but none of them seems to use that mechanism except for charts-mkiv. That again uses columns. But in my case it doesn't split the content, but creates only the left column. You can try with the documents and code snippets that I pasted. 2017-05-12 23:03 GMT+02:00 cryo shock <axteffekt@gmail.com>: > Sorry, me again.
