This error has been occurring for some time now, and unfortunately,
while I would like to keep up the recent releases of LMTX, it is
essential that I should be able to rotate tables and images. Does
anyone know of a fix?
Richard,
a minimal sample with images would read:
\setupexternalfigures[location=default]
\starttext
\placefigure[90, here]{Rotated sample}{\externalfigure[hacker.jpg]}
\input zapf
\stoptext
I don’t know why, but both MkIV and current latest (LMTX from
2021.01.22 09:41) place the rotated figure on a different page (with 90
and 270).
LMTX misplaces next paragraph on next page with both 90 and 270.
To show the issues with tables, a minimal sample would help. I’m afraid
I don’t have any experience rotating tables.
The code is not different from mkiv but instead we swap dimens using a
primitive. When you set \overloadmode=4 (which can be interesting as it
might reveal issues in a style) the run will quit with an error ... this
is a fix:
\def\strc_floats_set_page_variant
{\bgroup
\strc_floats_set_local_hsize
\ifcase\c_strc_floats_rotation\else
% Swapping fails in overloadmode and is also wrong (as it then is
persistent due
% to global being inherited).
%\swapdimens\hsize\vsize
\scratchdimen\hsize
\hsize\vsize
\vsize\scratchdimen
\fi
(it also indicates that we're cheating with the sizes which when it
happens global is pretty dangerous ... it works but i admit that it is
not nice)
