Problem with log coordinates in metafun graph module
by Jean-Philippe Rey 10 Dec '21

10 Dec '21

Dear list, Log coordinates seem to be broken in the last version of ConTeXt/metafun/graph. Here is my failing example =================================== \usemodule[graph] \starttext \startMPcode{graph} draw begingraph(100mm, 100mm); setcoords(log, linear); % works fine with setcoords(linear, linear); gdraw (1e-3, 10) -- (10, 30); endgraph; \stopMPcode \stoptext =================================== which produces nothing but works with ConTeXt ver: 2021.01.05 10:45 LMTX. You will find attached the log file which contains metafun > log > error: A primary expression can't begin with ',' Thank you for your help. -- Jean-Philippe Rey jean-philippe.rey(a)centralesupelec.fr 91192 Gif-sur-Yvette Cedex - France Empreinte PGP : 807A 5B2C 69E4 D4B5 783A 428A 1B5E E83E 261B BF51

Dear Hans, Bruce Horrocks, I test the file using MacVim and confirm that it works fine. Thus, something happened in my system or environment of vscode. I may reinstall vscode. Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

Dear Bruce Horrocks, Thank you for your test. I have moved the file to the local and run it. But the result is same. However, since your try worked well, the problem is mine not LMTX. I am using the editor “vscode”, and there may be something changed in my system recently. I’ll try using other editors. Thank you.

Dear Hans, >> Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/texMain/ColumnsetTest.tex''" terminated >> with exit code: 1.* > no clue ... does lmtx also fail? is it an apple binary issue? I am running LMTX now. It opens and closes "*-newcolumnsets.mkiv” files(we can find the lines in the log file). I also tested the files which had no problem a month ago, but got the same error message now. I reinstalled context and test it. But the result is same. I am going to test it more. Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

Hi, for a current project I'll need different variants of underbars. - A normal underbar - A dotted underbar - A combination of both Is there a way to combine them? I was hoping to have the dotted variant above the normal bar. This is not working %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \starttext \underbar{asdf} \underdot{asdf} \underbar{\underdot{asdf}} \stoptext %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Best, Denis

using the newcolumnsets module
by Jeong Dal 09 Dec '21

09 Dec '21

Dear all, I made an exam form by the help of the experts in this list. However, it was not working after recent update. Here is a code which I made for the test. If I use “\startcolumns \stopcolumns”, then it has no problem. But using “\startcolumnset[exam] … \stopcolumnset” produces error message “return code 11”. It loads “m-newcolumnset.tex” without problem. What is the cause of this error? Thank you for reading. Best regards, Dalyoung %%%%%%%% \startuseMPgraphic{verticalrule0} if CurrentColumn < NOfColumns : draw rightboundary OverlayBox shifted (4mm,0); setbounds currentpicture to OverlayBox enlarged 2.5mm; fi; \stopuseMPgraphic \startuseMPgraphic{squareBox} draw topboundary OverlayBox leftenlarged 1mm rightenlarged 1mm; draw rightboundary OverlayBox shifted (1mm,0); %if CurrentColumn = 1: shifted(-2mm,0) fi ; draw leftboundary OverlayBox shifted (-1mm,0); %if CurrentColumn = 2: shifted(2mm,0) fi ; draw bottomboundary OverlayBox leftenlarged 1mm rightenlarged 1mm; \stopuseMPgraphic \defineoverlay [headerBox] [\useMPgraphic{squareBox}] \startuseMPgraphic{verticalrule3} draw rightboundary OverlayBox shifted (1mm,0); %if CurrentColumn = 1: shifted(-2mm,0) fi ; draw leftboundary OverlayBox shifted (-1mm,0); %if CurrentColumn = 2: shifted(2mm,0) fi ; draw bottomboundary OverlayBox leftenlarged 1mm rightenlarged 1mm; \stopuseMPgraphic \defineoverlay [verticalrule] [\useMPgraphic{verticalrule3}] \definecolumnset [exam] [n=2, background=verticalrule] \setuplayout[width=19cm, height=26cm, header=1cm, footer=.5cm,backspace=1cm] \setupheader[before=\vfil, after=\vfil] \setupbackgrounds[header][text][frame=off, background=headerBox, align=lohi]%topframe= \setupbackgrounds[footer][text][frame=off, background=screen] \define[3]\headTitle{\setupheadertexts[][\bf #1 \hfill #2 \hfill #3 \hfill ID: \hskip 2cm Name: \hskip 2cm]} \setupmathematics[autopunctuation=no, integral=nolimits] \setupbodyfont[rm,10pt] \setuppagenumbering[location=footer] \setupcolors[state=start] %\setupexternalfigure[directory={/Users/graph/Documents/figures,}] \headTitle{2021. 12. 9.}{Set Theory}{Final Exam} \usemodule[newcolumnsets] \starttext \startcolumns[rule=on,n=2,leftframe=on] %\startcolumnset[exam] \startitemize[n] \item The first problem. \vfill \column \item The second problem. \vfill \column \item The third problem. \vfill \column \stopitemize %\stopcolumnset \stopcolumns \stoptext error messages: system > ConTeXt ver: 2021.11.30 19:49 LMTX fmt: 2021.12.1 int: english/english system > system > 'cont-new.mkxl' loaded open source > level 1, order 1, name '/Users/graph/ConTeXtL/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/cont-new.mkxl' system > beware: some patches loaded from cont-new.mkiv close source > level 1, order 1, name '/Users/graph/ConTeXtL/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/cont-new.mkxl' system > files > jobname '/Users/graph/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/texMain/ColumnsetTest', input '/Users/graph/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/texMain/ColumnsetTest.tex', result '/Users/graph/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/texMain/ColumnsetTest' fonts > latin modern fonts are not preloaded languages > language 'en' is active open source > level 1, order 2, name '/Users/graph/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/texMain/ColumnsetTest.tex' fonts > preloading latin modern fonts (third stage) fonts > 'fallback modern-designsize rm 10pt' is loaded colors > 'rgb' color space is supported colors > 'cmyk' color space is supported modules > 'newcolumnsets' is loaded open source > level 2, order 3, name '/Users/graph/ConTeXtL/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/m-newcolumnsets.mkiv' close source > level 2, order 3, name '/Users/graph/ConTeXtL/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/m-newcolumnsets.mkiv' mtx-context | fatal error: return code: 11 The terminal process "zsh '-c', 'export PATH=~/ConTeXtL/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin:$PATH;mtxrun --autogenerate --script context --autopdf --purge '/Users/graph/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/texMain/ColumnsetTest.tex''" terminated with exit code: 1.

Status of Asymptote
by Alexandre Christe 07 Dec '21

07 Dec '21

Dear all, I'd like to know what is the status of Asymptote in Context. To my knowledge, metapost/metafun only support 2D (except with the additional libraries from Roegel, which would have to be cleaned up a bit). Otherwise, what shall be used for 3D drawings in Context? TikZ? Something else? Thanks in advance. Alex

Status of moderncv with ConTeXt ?
by Laurent Steffan 06 Dec '21

06 Dec '21

Hello, In the deprecated document about "Correspondence" dated 2010, the chapter on résumés describes a ConTeXt reimplementation of the moderncv package. Is this still usable, and if so, where can I get the relevant files ? Thanks in advance Laurent Steffan
