Dear all,
I'm looking for a solution for dashed underlining. Hacking around I've
come quite close, with the only problem that when the underlining begins
at the start of a paragraph there gets an empty (grid) line inserted
before it. See:
\defineoverlay [backgraphics] [\positionoverlay{backgraphics}]
\setupbackgrounds
[page]
[background={backgraphics}]
\setupMPvariables[mpos:par][gridtype=1,gridshift=-0.5ex,gridwidth=0.1ex,
gridcolor=black,fillcolor=white,linecolor=white]
\newcount\dashulinecounter \dashulinecounter=1
\definestartstop[dashuline][before={\dostartdashuline},after={\dostopdashuline}]
\def\dostartdashuline{%
\startpositionoverlay{backgraphics}%
\setMPpositiongraphic{b:uline:\the\dashulinecounter}{mpos:par}{self=uline:\the\dashulinecounter}%
\stoppositionoverlay
\fpos{uline:\the\dashulinecounter}%
}
\def\dostopdashuline{%
\tpos{uline:\the\dashulinecounter}%
\advance\dashulinecounter by 1%
}
\starttext
No Line \startdashuline \dorecurse{20}{This is just a test.
}\stopdashuline \par
\startdashuline \dorecurse{20}{This is just a test. }\stopdashuline
\stoptext
I'm sure some of you know a simpler and more elegant solution that maybe
allows even dotted underlining?! Or does anyone have a hint how to get
rid of the empty line?
Cheers,
Daniel

Well, that was really simple… Any chance to get this working also with
dots? (Where could I find more on those features? I guess anch-pgr.mkiv
which seems quite complicated…)
Thanks a lot!

Sorry to bother you again… Unfortunately this doesn't work out right in
descriptions: after the
first line the underlining starts at the left margin not with the other
indented lines. Anything one can do about this? Thanks!

Hello,
I tried to add the Wolfgang's solution to wiki, the last example on
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TextBackground
But the rendered example doesn't show any (dashed) background, although the standalone test file does.
Why?
If the example was rendered otherwise than in reality, it wouldn't have sense to keep it on wiki...

The underbar is drawn using metapost. The wiki still uses MkII, and does
not have write18 enabled. So, you need to add \runMPgraphicsfalse in the
file (I think that that should be added to cont-usr.tex on the wiki).

I have added that command before \starttext in the wiki extension.
Aditya - can you please test it?

If I remove \runMPgraphicsfalse from the last example on
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TextBackground, I do not get the underbar.
