Hi,
I am looking for a way to assign the value of a TeX macro to an MP variable.
However, this only works the first time, then the value is not updated any
longer. Example:
\startMPdefinitions
size = \somesize ;
\stopMPdefinitions
\startuseMPgraphic{alpha}
fill unitcircle scaled size;
\stopu

MPvariables are local to a particular MP graphic. I need a way to
set the variables global to all MPgraphics of that MP instance.

Well, I played with all possible environments, but there is no
environment local to a particular MP instance which is re-read on
every MP graphic. The only usable environment in this case is

I see, you create an initialisation graphic and include it where
necessary. And it's local to the MP instance. Thanks for the
pointer.

Well, I know \includeMPgraphic but the combination of
\includeMPgraphic and \MPvar is very creative, indeed. But it's a
little tricky to find out what code actually gets included.
Obviously there are plenty

Hi,
I try getting a 6-sided letterfold with unequal page size to work.

Hi!
How to scale an image in MetaPost, maintaining the aspect ratio
(without specifying the height explicitly)?
Example:
\setupexternalfigures [location=default]
\starttext
\externalfigure [cow][width=5cm]
\startMPcode
draw externalfigure "cow" scaled 5cm;
\stopMPcode

I've got a few unfortunate line breaks in my documents. In particular, breaks

non-break space:

Hi!
ConTeXt can detect issues in the sources and report them on the
console with the argument --errors or with \enabledirectives
[logs.errors]. The return value is still “0” (=success) even with
errors present.
Right now I use a script that parses the log file and lets me know
if a run has issues
Hi!
I'd like to use subfigure numbering for floats. This works:
\useMPlibrary [dum]
\starttext
\startplacefigure [location=none]
\startfloatcombination [nx=2]
\startplacefigure [title=Left, reference=ref:left, group=one, groupsuffix=a]
\externalfigure
\stopplacefigure
\startp
Hi!
when LMTX is installed in a read-only location (e.g. /opt) it
creates a directory "luametatex-cache" in $HOME.
How to influence the location of the cache directory?

Hi!
The caption "FOO" runs into the right figure's caption:

Hi!
Today I discovered that the parameter order in float location matters:
\starttext
\samplefile{knuth}
\startplacefigure [location={top,none}] %% works: float is at the top
\externalfigure
\stopplacefigure
\startplacefigure [location={none,top}] %% top is ignored here

“location“ sets the location of the caption as well as the position
of the entire float. If you want to influence one, you'll also have
to specify the ot
Hi!
In the following example “Lorem ipsum” sits on an otherwise empty

changed or may it be a bug in LMTX?

I've done that for other options, too, I guess no-caption-floats get
a dedicated float type as well now. It's more robust than relying on

Hi!
Apologies for spamming this list with my all the floaty stuff.
There's an issue with defining new floats in LMTX in combination
with bottom placement.
The following works in MkIV, but throws an error in LMTX:
I'm ignoring this; it doesn't match any \if.

The MWE was included in the OP on 2021-10-30. But here it is again:
\setupfloat [figure]
[default=bottom] %% fails
%% [default=top] %% works
\definefloat
[foo] [foos]

Hi Hans,
a followup to our conversation in the meeting: here's an MWE
demonstrating that errors aren't passed on to the runner script,
except for "logs.errors=missing characters", which in fact do return
failure, all others do return success.
%% enables logging of errors same as --errors

If you mean the issue I posted on 2021-11-30, then no. It still
throws an error here on my end.

Ok, but that's what the context runner is for, not? It's smart and
knows when it's hitting the last run and if there a
601 - 700 of 726 matches
