placefigure problem

Dear all, I encountered a problem with TexLive 2013 context. The problem persisted with the context beta. With LuaTex version beta-0.77.0-2013081719 (rev 4640) and ConTeXt ver: 2013.08.18 18:32 MKIV beta fmt: 2013.8.20 int: english/english I compiled: \starttext \chapter{c-titel} \section{s1-titel} <text> \placefigure[none,left]{}{\externalfigure[c:/context/tekeningen/hemelbol.pdf][height=6cm]} <text> \placefigure[none,left]{}{\externalfigure[c:/context/tekeningen/afplatting.pdf][height=4cm]} <text> \section{s2-title} <text> \stoptext The figures were placed in the middle of the page and the text did not wrap around the figures. Everything worked fine in TexLive 2012 context. I'm a bit lost, any idea? cheerio Wim W. Wilhelm

Hey, The following does not work correctly in the current beta. It seems like the "1" is parsed as a part of "(". Inserting a space between ( and 1 makes the example work. \starttext \startformula \left(1 - \right) \stopformula \stoptext Most of the fonts produce nothing for \left(1, cambria produces some weird symbol. -- Janne

Problem with context in windows
by Oualkacha, Karim 19 Aug '13

19 Aug '13

Hi, I installed conTeXt in windows following the steps in the website http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Windows_Installation:_ConTeXt_Suite_with_S ciTe#Install_SciTe I have a PC with windows 7, ruby is already installed, and I have MikeTex 2.9 already installed and as text editor WinEdt. To test if everything work, I created a file Test.tex \starttext Test \stoptext When I executed it in WinEdt I didn't have any error message, however, there is no PDF file created for the Test.tex file [ConTeXt Compilation Report (Pages: 0), Errors : 0]. In a command-line window (cmd) I tried the command context to see what is the problem: I got the following message: warnings no lua configuration files found no texmf paths are defined <using TEXMF> I tried also texexec command and I got the following message: mtxrun ! kpse fallback with programme `context` initialized in 0.062 seconds Any Help Please!

Trouble with editors on Mac
by Mari Voipio 19 Aug '13

19 Aug '13

Hi! I updated my ConTeXt installation today and now it refuses to work with TextMate and TeXworks. When I use the typesetting command on either editor, I get the error message mtxrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' The weird thing is that my ConTeXt standalone installation works on command line (with "context myfile.tex"). I've used TextMate for a year and did not change anything there. Both editors also have my ConTeXt directory /Applications/ConTeXt/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin/context as PATH variable (I got a different error message on TeXworks before I edited the path variable to include ConTeXt). So in theory everything should be fine... I first installed the newest ConTeXt and when it gave the above error message, I switched to latest "stable" version (installation with --context=current), but that didn't make any difference. My previous installation was at least 3 months old, possibly quite a bit older. This problem is not critical as I can use TextMate/TeXworks as editor and compile on command line in Terminal, but it is a bit of a nuisance not to be able to use the typesetting command in the editor. So any help is highly appreciated. Thanks, Mari

TexLive 2013
by Wim W. Wilhelm 16 Aug '13

16 Aug '13

Dear all, I switched from context: TexLive 2012 to context:TextLive 2013. All figures in my text, placed like the following example: \placefigure[none,left]{}{\externalfigure[c:/context/tekeningen/hemelbol.pdf][height=6cm]} are placed in the middle of the page, and the text is not wrapped around the figure. I tried also the "2*line" option, without succes. Does there exist a list of differences between context:TexLive 2012 and TexLive 2013 ? I appreciate any help. Cheerio, Wim W. Wilhelm
