displayed formula confuses parshape around figure

displayed formula confuses parshape around figure

[Sanjoy Mahajan]

In the following small example, two squares are cut out of the long
paragraph.  The first is where the external figure belongs and goes, so
no problem with that.  But the second removed square is after the
displayed equation, and it shouldn't be removed.  If I comment out the
formula, then the paragraph shape is fine.

If I make add a \placeformula before the \startformula, then the
equation number goes where it should (below the right edge of the
figure), but the area below it is still whitespace.

Is it a bug or is there an option to make startformula not interfere
with the paragraph shape calculation?

I'm using context version: 2006.08.08 21:51, and I found the same
problem just now on the live ConTeXt.

\starttext
\placefigure[right,none]{}{\externalfigure[dummy]}

\input tufte
\startformula
A = a^\alpha b^\beta,
\stopformula
\input tufte
\input tufte

\stoptext

It works for me if put a \par or a empty line after the first \input.

That's true, but doing so ends the paragraph.  Shouldn't the displayed
math be part of the paragraph?  The \input tufte's were just to make
the minimal example.  It came from a paragraph with text and math that
begins with a figure:

\placefigure[right,none]{}{\externalfigure[dummy]}

Then lots of text about the figure, leading up to 
\startformula
this equation
\stopformula
then more text discussing the equation...

Ok, I playes yesterday I bit with your example and can you give now

[this bounced before, I think due to disk space being used up on the
 mailman server.  Hopefully you don't get it twice]

At first I thought I'd need to include \hangindent and
\hangafter to use it, but then I realized that you were using those
comands for simulating the figure inclusion.

I put your patch at the start of my test file using the dummy figure,
and it works great.  Thanks!  I'll keep using it and let you know if I
notice any side effects, but hopefully it can go into the
distribution.

Working example for correspondence

[Jorge Manuel de Almeida Magalhães]

Dear Sirs,

I need to prepare a letter  to send to hundred persons but I don't find 
a working example for use with a address database in xml format. Can 
you post a small example, please?

I had read the manual named xcorres.pdf, but the examples don't work 
for me and I don't know what I'm doing in wrong way.

Thanks a lot

Have a nice night

Jorge

Dou you have the file m-letter.tex on your system installed, it's not
part of the ConTeXt-Distribution.

Look in the log-file if there is a message m-letter.tex not found or
something else.

appendices in letters

[batela]

Dear Sirs,

In my letters I tried to include some notes after the closing part. I 
use the m-letter module and xcorres:

\startsetups[letter:appendices]

My notes for my all students

  \stopsetups

But in this way the appendice  is only placed in the head of the first 
letter. If I try changing the closing definition in m-letter.tex module 
all works fine.

\startsetups [letter:place:closing]
   \endgraf \setups[letter:closing] \endgraf

%\EnglishRule
My notes for my all students

\stopsetups


This is a bug?

Which beta version do you use (texexec --version)? If it's not the
latest one (17.09.) simply update to that version. This bug (typo) was
fixed some beta versions ago.

normally this !xxx kind of errors point to a missing \protect

But in this case I had the same error in a prior beta. And if I remember
it right, \blackrule works in the current stable version (and older ones).

This is from a mail I sent you on 31.08.

[..]

\def\doblackrule[#1]%
  {\hbox\bgroup
   \getparameters[\??bj][#1]%
   \setstrut
   \doif\@@bjwidth\ v!max{\def\@@bjwidth {1em}}%
                  ^^^^
I had the text "!max" in one of my gfx  :)

[..]

The typo was corrected in the following beta version. This is the reason
why I think Jorge uses an older beta.

Dear Sirs,

I had updated my context version and now all works fine.

Thanks to all

Jorge
