Dear Vincent, I've been experiencing the same issue (as I report too in https://github.com/polymode/polymode/issues/336#issuecomment-2661604492 ).
This is something that I started experiencing with AUCTeX 14.0.2 and seems related to the change, in AUCTeX, from "latex-mode" to "LaTeX-mode" ( https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/auctex-devel/2024-01/msg00002.html). If you set the Rnw buffer to use AUCTeX (M-x LaTeX-mode), then polymode is deactivated. What I've been doing is using AUCTeX 13 (at least both of 13.2.4 and 13.2.1 work). Best, R. P.S. I can trigger the problem as follows emacs -Q M-x package-initialize ;; open/create file that ends on .Rnw ;; notice it is not using AUCTeX M-x LaTeX-mode ;; notice no longer poly-noweb+r-mode On Sat, 01-February-2025, at 02:04:20, Vincent Goulet via ESS-help <ess-help@r-project.org> wrote: > Hey Gang, > > I'm stuck.
