Those who don't see the difference may not deserve it. :-) regards, Christopher Creutzig ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

In LaTeX, one can use pictex or DCpic. The latter claims also to work with ConTeXt, but I couldn't find an example. Has anybody managed to do something like this? (essentially, I only need something like Math Text ----------> Math Text ----------> Math Text | | | | | | | | | v v v Math Text ----------> Math Text ----------> Math Text sometimes also with diagonal arrows).

However, after some experimenting, I catually managed to get DCpic to work. It is just a plain TeX file, I was only scared by the .sty name. If somebody else runs into the same problem, here is a short example, for reference. You will need dcpic.sty in your path first. Then one can create diagrams as follows: \usemodule[pictexwd] \input dcpic.sty \starttext \begindc{\commdiag} \obj(1,2){$V_i$} \obj(3,1){$V'$} \obj(3,3){$V$} \mor{$V_i$}{$V$}{$f_i$} \mor{$V_i$}{$V'$}{$f_i'$}[-1,0] \mor{$V$}{$V'$}{$f$} \enddc \stoptext Matthias On Sep 29, 2004, at 3:07 PM, Henning Hraban Ramm wrote: > Am 29.09.2004 um 20:53 schrieb Matthias Weber: >> I need to typeset a few (simple) diagrams in ConTeXt, >> like the ones mathematicians use, with arrows.

With all of ConTeXt's features for doing in-document MetaPost code, this would be the perfect solution for your problem. Have a look at Hans's MetaFUN manual for a good starting point on using it. Also, I believe the original MetaPost manual has some examples of figures very much like the ones that you want to draw. - Brooks ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

The 'PSTricks/METAOBJ gallery' part of the manual (p. 93ff) shows some diagrams you will surely like. Greetings, -- Eckhart ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread
