Hello, so the state now: 1. I'm renewing ConTeXt with "call first-setup.bat --extras=all --modules=all", which calls "mtxrun --script ./bin/mtx-update.lua --force --update --make --engine=all --context=beta --texroot=%CONTEXTROOT% %*", so all modules including pgfplots should be automatically updated (and were in the lately mentioned case). 2. @Wolfgang: Yes, placing your pgfplots.zip in the same directory as the source file solves the problem - the file compiles well with no error. What is more pure or systematic solution? For now and for one directory it is OK, but - for the future in general? 3. As ConTeXt plotting engine is concerned: Just for illustration, an image of what pgfplot was used for in this case. The plot is created dynamically - number of series, their vertices, legenda, the way how each series is filled. Lua reads a table and calls tex/pgfplot commands to generate the plot. No problem to generate such plot with pure ConTeXt (tool, module, ...), if it is capable. Best regards, Lukas On Mon, 08 Feb 2016 19:13:57 +0100, Wolfgang Schuster wrote: >> luigi scarso >> 8.
