Hello;
When I add this text to my drawing (by clicking on
the text icon, and typing in the small pop-up windows
that comes up the following as an example
\begin{align*}
A &= B
\end{align*}
I keep getting "Ipe: error running Latex"
)
! Missing \endgroup inserted.
<inserted text>
\endgroup
l.72 \end{align*}
%
I made sure to add
\usepackage{amsmath}
to the document preamble using the Edit->Document Properties window.
I also noticed, when I look into the .ipe file itself, that
ipe adds this
....
<text matrix="1 0 0 1 -28 52" transformations="translations" pos="336 676" stroke="black" type="label" width="23.968" height="6.42" depth="0" valign="baseline" style="math">u=0</text>
<text transformations="translations" pos="336 660" stroke="black" type="label" valign="baseline">\begin{align*}
A &= B
\end{align*}</text>
....
Notice the A &= B (may be it always added & for &, I do not
know).
I can add other math text, such as $\theta$ and it works, but it seems
to fail when I use align* env from amsmath.
I am on windows 7, 64 bit. Latest 2.9 Miktex runs fine and I use Miktex
all the time and have not changed anything with it. So I do not
think it is related to Latex installation on windows itself.
I just compiled this tex file on miktex, no error:
------------------------------
\documentclass[]{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\begin{document}
\begin{align*}
A &= B
\end{align*}
\end{document}
------------------------
I upgraded to 7.2.6 just recently.
I put the .ipe file in this folder if someone wants to try it:
http://12000.org/tmp/101516/
It is called p2.ipe
Am I doing something wrong? Also, anyone knows where to
download earlier version of IPE? 7.2.5 may be? I deleted
the earlier version from my PC.
thanks
