  5. TIL: Footnotes within MetaPost textext (at least with the nodes modules) get wrongly numbered due to multiple passes and uncaught boundary conditions.
    Using footnotes in graphics wasn’t expected …
    A fix will need time and opportunity.

  9. It’s been nearly a year ago, when Gerben Wierda (@gctwnl) shared this amazing example of diagram engineering:

    ea.rna.nl/archimate/free-archi

    “The story at the end tells a bit about #LMTX and how it was done (it's about 2500 lines of Lua to parse the XML and produce the LMTX statements, and about 3500 lines of #MetaPost/Metafun to produce the graphics).”

  10. Tonight’s update for #ConTeXt #LMTX should fix problems with #PGF/#TikZ.

    While #MetaPost (#MetaFun) is the graphics language of choice in ConTeXt, TikZ should generally work. But some modules like pgfplots needed new loaders due to the low level changes in #LuaMetaTeX.
