Re: [NTG-context] Lmtx + pgfplots compilation error
The problem is that pgfplots uses the ^^ syntax to access characters but
this relies on ^ having catcode 7 which is not the case by default in
ConTeXt. I had a similar issue in PGF before and that was fixed by just
replacing the ^^ syntax with the ascii code constants from
syst-ini.mkxl.
Cheers, Henri

[NTG-context] "Remember picture" does not work (again)
I've tried using the fix in https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/492197/193767
in order to make TikX's remember picture feature usable, Code below, just
in case:
\unprotect% This fixes the present
bug\unexpanded\def\pdflastxpos{\numexpr\clf_lastxpos\relax}\unexpanded\def\pdflastypos{\numexpr\clf_lastypos\relax}%
This might be needed if you run PGF 3.1.3% see
https://github.com/pgf-tikz/pgf/issues/675\def\XC@tgt@mod#1{#1}\def\XC@sdef#1#2{\edef#1{#2}}\protect\usemodule[tikz]\starttext\starttikzpicture[remember
picture]
\node (A) {Node 1};\stoptikzpicture
Hi world\starttikzpicture[remember picture]
\node (B) {Node
2};\stoptikzpicture\starttikzpicture[overlay,remember picture]
\draw (B) --++(0,0.5) -| (A);\stoptikzpicture\stoptext
However, the following appears:
l.1 6
120806
\lastxpos ->\clf_lastxpos
\noexpand \pgfsyspdfmark {pgfid1}{\the \lastxpos
}{\the \lastypos }
}\endwrite
\shipoutscratchbox
\page_shipout_box #1->\clf_shipoutpage #1
\relax \setbox #1\emptybox \global ...
...
l.20 \stoptext
I use LuaTeX 1.10 7127 + ConTeXt MkIV 2019.03.21 21:39 (TeX Live version),
in case this helps. Is another fix necessary? A Metapost alternative would
be fine, too.

Re: [NTG-context] Float positioning
Hi Alexey,
# Yes, I tried leftpage/rightpage: this removes the blank page, but may
# cause images to be reordered (so that e. g. 3 goes before 2), which is
# completely unacceptable IMO.
Yes, you are right.
But -- I do not know why -- your code you attached gives on my computer (TL2019)
the 1-3-2 order, too.
# Also, this doesn't help with the text flow at the page where the first
# image is positioned (still no text below the image).
Is it one or two problems? I do know how to solve by some system way...
You can try the work around below, it is based on computation of additional
measures for special instance of figure.

Tomáš

no (i would probably cook up something but it's not worth the trouble and it

OK, thanks. This means the ConTeXt environment mixes standard TeX (where \nfoo
would be considered a TeX command) and lua string substitution (where \nfoo
would mean a newline followed by foo), correct? I understand why that happens
(otherwise one would have to escape all \ characters directed at TeX) but it
really took me hours (because I did not understand the error message that
correctly told me \Nno was the problem). It’s what you see depends on what you
are looking for, I guess.
Maybe a warning in the documentation (or maybe there is one and I missed it)

Or you could write out a shell script while processing the run.
function moduledata.archimate(filename)
local root = xml.load(filename)
warnIfVerbose( "Processing %s", filename)
local shfile = io.open(tex.jobname.. ".sh", "w")
local i = 1
for view in xml.collected(root,"diagrams/view") do
local viewName = xml.text(view,"/name")
shfile:write(string.format('mutool merge -o "%s.pdf" %s "%s.pdf" ',
viewName, i, tex.jobname))
i = i + 1
….
end
shfile:close()
and process that shell script at the end of the run.
