Subject: To update or not to update - that is the question...
Date: Sat, 2 Mar 2013 01:11:35 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130302011135.30edce68@aga-netbook> (raw)
Hi all,
I have an issue with \overrightarrow being positioned under its
argument. I've read on the list that this is now fixed, but... I
can't upgrade! This is because I'm preparing a document in an
"incremental" way, that is, I'm preparing course materials (problem
sets) for the next class each week and giving them away to students.
If I upgrade, the pagebreaks change (probably due to some tweaking Hans
added to multicolumn itemgroups a few months ago). So what would you
suggest? I can see at least three solutions, none of which is ideal for
me.
1. Manually backport the fix to my ConTeXt. Pro: ideal solution (at
least for now). Con: no idea how to do it - I don't know how to
access ConTeXt repository (if it's at all possible for a non-developer).
2. Upgrade and insert some manual pagebreaks so that pages 21-22 (which
I'm currently working on) contain the same problems as they used to.
Pro: easy fix. Con: very dirty trick, and what if someone asks me
about some old problems, because he lost his copy?
3. Just use \vec instead of \overrightarrow. Pro: very easy, no dirty
hacks. Con: ugly looking (see: \vec{AB}).
Any ideas? Is it possible to find the official ConTeXt repo somewhere,
or if not, maybe someone could send me the diff of the commit which
fixed that (this post:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.context/79011 suggests that it
is the 2012.10.30 21:13 commit)?
Regards,
