Re: [NTG-context] Odd /externalfigure behavior

Wolfgang, Sorry for the delay -- forgot I have the list emails filtered to a Context mail folder. DOH! But I'm seeing sporadic behavior. In more testing just now, I had an image work while other images do not work. This is odd. But, they are on Dropbox and I wonder now if that may be an issue--hence the 'nil' response for the image path, perhaps? I'm going to unlink and relink Dropbox and see if that helps. More later.

Wolfgang,

With the same context headers in the document as are in the 'real' document, yes, same error. I've modified the image to different images in the same directory and a different image in another directory and still get the same error.

I checked and the only changes made to my system this week were some ruby packages I installed yesterday, so there should have been no changes to the context environment itself.

The only other thing I can think of is something awry with Dropbox, which is where all of these files reside. Except I can edit/view images and documents. It's just context that seems to have an issue.

Is there also a error when you have only the \externalfigure line in your document without additional setups?
