tikz is not found

tikz is not found

[Gour]

Hello,

in order to try using TikZ figures (exported from Geogebra) I tried
with some simple TikZ example with lmtx install, but I get the
following: 

system          > ConTeXt  ver: 2019.04.16 09:07 MKIV beta  fmt:
2019.4.23  int: english/english system          >

[...]

so wonder how to add missing tikz module?

I'm running Devuan (Debian) 'testing' (x86-64)...

Sincerely,
Gour

Hans explained that third party modules are not automatically distributed or installed (yet) by the lmtx install.sh script. All that you need to do is to copy the texmf-modules directory from a standard context distribution to the lmtx tree.

If you are intending on preparing math exams, I may suggest that native MetaPost IS better adapted for many reasons AND easier to use in ConTeXt.

Because your (or someone's) mail application replaced -- with emdashes.

Ahh...I apologize for creating extra noise then. :-(

OK. Will try to do it.

I believe it is, but it seems that learning curve is steeper, while
GeoGebra is quite easy to easy...However, I downloaded MetaPost manual
and will test how it goes.

That I spotted and corrected, but I'm getting another error, I suppose:

$ cat  mp.tex

\startMPcode
draw ( (0,0)--(1,0)--(0,1)) with color red ;

I've just read as much of that statement as I could fathom,
so a semicolon should have been next. It's very puzzling...
but I'll try to get myself back together, by ignoring
everything up to the next `;'. Please insert a semicolon
now in front of anything that you don't want me to delete.

Any hint?

Change "with color" to "withcolor" (no space).

Here is a more detailed example that mimics the tikz code that you sent in 
the other email.

\definecolor[myblue][r=0.3,g=0.3,b=1]
\definecolor[myred][r=0.6,g=0.2,b=0]

\starttext
\startMPpage
   newpair A, B, C;

   A := (-7.7, 2.75)*1cm;
   B := (0.88, 2.57)*1cm;
   C := (-3.04, -3.37)*1cm;

   newpath triangle;
   triangle := A -- B -- C -- cycle;
   fill triangle withcolor "myred" withtransparency("normal", 0.1);
   draw triangle withpen pencircle scaled 2pt
                 withcolor "myred";

   dotlabeldiam := 5pt;
   dotlabel.lft("A", A) withcolor "myblue";
   dotlabel.rt ("B", B) withcolor "myblue";
   dotlabel.bot("C", C) withcolor "myblue";

\stopMPpage
\stoptext

In ConTeXt, if you put quotes around the name of a color, it looks at the 
colors defined in tex rather than colors defined in metapost. This allows 
you to easily share the same colors in text and figures.

As an elegent example of this see this excellent imitation of Byrne's 
Euclid:

Ha, that is nice ... i actually have a facsimile of that book somewhere 
but this is more fun

Thank you very much - it is very useful for learning purposes.

That's great and desirable!

Wow!!

This is wonderful example and learning resource.

Thank you, all, for your replies. Such a friendly and helping
list/community!
