\nolimits no effect in LMTX
Hello, The \nolimits macro has no effect in LMTX, but works fine in the context mkiv version of my texlive installation. Small example: \starttext \startformula \sum\nolimits_{i=1}^{n} a_i \stopformula \stoptext In LMTX the sub- and superscripts are incorrectly placed below and above the sum operator. Can someone have a look what's going wrong? Thanks in advance! Best regards, Stefan Haller

Thanks for the response and also for your efforts creating and maintaining ConTeXt! The proposed alternative work well. This also solves the confusion due to never being able to to remember that I have to put the \limits / \nolimits directive *after* the symbol I want to modify. If somebody else stumbled across this: The code for the *mathoperators macros sits in `mkxl/math-lop.mkxl`. Best regards, Stefan
