Q: How to get section and subsection with upshape (normal) numbers

jhonIn my thesis I wanna to get the section and subsection numbers in upshape not italic while i am getting it in italic shape. As per my thesis requirement i have to be in upshape i.e 1.1 Section 1.1.1 Subsection But I wanna to be like this 1.1 Section 1.1.1 Subsection

Hi there! I have a question regarding the only answer to:
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/473444/how-to-use-refsection-and-xcite-together

First, thank you for the detailed answer, @moewe!
I successfully implemented a MWE for my scenario using it, but I have a question regarding it.
Let us suppose that the parent document includes more than 200 references, but the child document `cite`s only 50 of them. Is there a way to print only those references in the bibliography of the child document, and not all 200+ references from the main document?
 
@ndandanov note you can only ping moewe in a comment under his post, he won't see the ping here
 
Thank you, @DavidCarlisle! :)
unfortunately I do not have enough reputation to comment under his post, hence decided to write here. :)
 
@ndandanov basically if you type @ and the name you want isn't suggested, then the ping will not work, you can only ping people who have been on the page "recently"
@ndandanov ah:-)
@ndandanov I am offline in a minute so can't look at your code but I left a comment under moewe's answer
 
Many thanks for your support, @DavidCarlisle! Have a pleasant Sunday. :)

Q: How to split bibliography into "works cited" and "works not cited"?

TikituI need two bib-like sections: a "References" giving works explicitly cited in my text, and a "Bibliography" (or "Further reading" if you prefer) giving everything from my bibfile that didn't already appear in "References". The first is of course completely standard, but the second... I'm stumped....

to filter out uncited entries.
In a numeric style your bibliography may end up skipping a few numbers. In an authoryear setup you may get disambiguation letters that seem unmotivated if you only look at the 50 citations (and not the full 200).
But I guess that is sort of desired. Otherwise there'd be easier solutions.
If you are having trouble getting the "category" trick to work, I suggest you ask a new question with an MWE relevant to your setup.
 
@moewe good morning. I see David lured you into the chat ;-)
 
@UlrikeFischer Good morning to you too. I usually just drop by when I'm summoned or when I want something.
 
Thank you for the guidance, @moewe! I am using a helpful answer of yours to an earlier question of mine (https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/511347/149579) for the parent document. I then load all the bibliography and citation information into the child document.
Applying the "category" trick, I correctly get only the cited references in the child document, but their numbering (IEEE style) is only [0] for each and every source.
 
@moewe as you are just here: do you have somewhere a few good examples how to use biblatex with non-latin scripts?
 
9:03 AM
@ndandanov Ooof ieee.bbx applies sorting=none,. If you additionally want a split bibliography, you want defernumbers, which makes the whole thing a lot more tricky, see the note at the end of the answer tex.stackexchange.com/a/473452/35864.
On second thoughts, the sorting=none, might not be an issue. But defernumbers is.
I think it would help if you could post a new question with an MWE of what you have so far.
 
Thank you for your help!
I will summarize my configuration and post a new question shortly. Then, I will post a link here.
 
@UlrikeFischer Unfortunately not. Are you thinking about a monolingual document/bibliography? Or about a multilingual bibliography?
@UlrikeFischer I guess biblatex-gost has some Cyrillic examples.
And there is biblatex-gb7714-2015 for Chinese, but I haven't had a look at that style at all.
 
@moewe Simply about "examples". Imho there is not much around what to do if the title contains some greek or some other scripts, or how to add a transliteration.
@moewe I tried to get that running (I was checking various styles), but that is not easy ;-(
 
@UlrikeFischer Oh, the thing is if there are several languages/scripts/font encodings in the same entry (e.g. when you just have a Russian origtitle) things get really messy.
e.g.

Q: Change language on a per field basis, part 2: Fonts, case transformation and sorting

gnucchi A similar question to Change language on a per field basis, but: (1) I use different fonts for Latin and Greek, and (2) I use automatic sentence case for titles. Languages of the same font work fine with the autolang=hyphen package option. Different fonts (\greekfont in this case) do not. aut...

 
9:20 AM
@moewe exactly, this types of examples I mean.
 
@UlrikeFischer Based on that answer there is texwelt.de/fragen/24268/… on TeXwelt (which is less exciting, because it's only German/English)
I guess I'm hoping that the multiscript version could help there.
But there is still the issue of deciding when/where exactly to switch the language for a field.
If we switch the language before the field format is applied, we may end up translating strings we don't want to translate. And if we apply language switching to the argument of the field format we may get undesirable output in cases like titlecase where we need the raw field contents in order to operate properly.
 
@moewe what happens if you add commands like \foreignlanguage to a bib entry with the sorting? Does biber ignores them?
 
@UlrikeFischer I'm not quite sure what exactly happens, but I don't think they are ignored.
 
@moewe then one probably should have a sorttitle and a formattedtitle.
 
@UlrikeFischer In other news I managed to compile the 193-pages biblatex-gost-examples.tex from github.com/odomanov/biblatex-gost/blob/master/doc/latex/…
@UlrikeFischer Yeah, though I think it might be nicer to work with field annotation and give the language you want in an annotation.
Then the field could contain the unformatted (sortable!) content and language switching can happen later.
 
9:40 AM
@moewe if it were only about one language and only about hyphenation yes. But in complicated mixes it could be easier to accept that you have to give two versions. I mean it is a bit like hyperref: if handles lots of commands quite fine, but there are always cases where you have to do \texorpdfstring{tex}{bookmarks}. It sometimes doesn't pay off to write lots of code to automate special cases which can be handled by an easy manual input.
 
@UlrikeFischer For titles we already have what we need (sorttitle and title). But for name fields things get much more complicated. As soon as you introduce all the braces and macros you need for language switching the name parser probably doesn't do the right thing any more.
 
@moewe the initials are quite a problem yes. Life would be easier, if they were part of the input.
 
@UlrikeFischer They can be if you want to (author = {family=Humphrey, given=Appleby, given-i=B},) but I guess most people don't want to.
But if you introduce some braces there, you'd still mess up sorting. So sortname would still be needed.
 
9:59 AM
@moewe yes, but it sounds like a good, clean method for complicated cases.

@moewe, I managed to compile the MWE with all necessary changes. Now it seems the "category" trick works excellent! In case I do not manage to make something else work as needed, I will post a question.
Have a great Sunday! :)

@UlrikeFischer i'm thinking about the internal colour model: I have a feeling I should store all the data in the prop and just the name of the default model in the tl. Thuoghts?
 
5:13 PM
@JosephWright Hm. I think for our code that would be easier. I only wondered if external packages like xcolor or color need a "simple" access to the main value of a color defined l3color. But this is probably better done with a export function. So yes, sounds right. (I'm just on my way to the door getting some dinner).
 
5:26 PM
@UlrikeFischer Exactly: I've only partly re-worked the internals, and I think that's one reason export is currently partly-wrong is that the data structures are not quite right just yet
@UlrikeFischer I'll do that

Q: tcolorbox: How to enforce inner sep at tcolorbox raster?

cisI set left=5pt, right=5pt, top=5pt, bottom=5pt for the inner sep of a tcolorbox raster. He tries to set the boxes height on the highest box - that's ok and wanted. He also tries to set the raster across the entire text width - that's ok too - but he substitutes the inner xsep in the box / column ...

@DavidCarlisle I'm good at breaking stuff :-)
 
@PhelypeOleinik what did you break?
 
@UlrikeFischer \DeclareRobustCommand, it seems :-)
@UlrikeFischer The github issue
 
@PhelypeOleinik ah, the active char business.
@PhelypeOleinik why did you find this?
 
@UlrikeFischer Actually it was Donald Arseneau who told me about this one in a comment, but he's not on the team to take the blame, so
 
@PhelypeOleinik ah ;-)
