ditaa

ditaa

[Henri-Paul Indiogine]

Greetings!

Is anyone experiencing problems with LaTeX export + ditaa?   After a
git pull upgrade this morning the export to LaTeX of ditaa has changed
to hyperref.   I can post the relevant LaTeX lines if necessary.

Thanks,
Henri-Paul

Yes, I think it'd help if you could post a complete -- but minimal... --
example which allows us to (try to) reproduce the problem.

I just pulled

   Org-mode version 7.7 (release_7.7.64.g1bbf)

and tried on this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Export a picture

Need to load ob-ditaa to execute these:

#+begin_src ditaa :file image.png :cmdline -r :exports both
+---------+
| cBLU    |
|         |
|    +----+
|    |cPNK|
|    |    |
+----+----+
#+end_src

#+results:
[[file:image.png]]
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


It worked fine - the link became


\includegraphics[width=.9\linewidth]{image.png}


in the tex file.

Greetings!

This is from my .emacs

(org-babel-do-load-languages
 'org-babel-load-languages
 '((R . t)
   (ditaa . t)
   .........
   .........
(defun my-org-confirm-babel-evaluate (lang body)
  (not (string= lang "ditaa")))  ; don't ask for ditaa
(setq org-confirm-babel-evaluate 'my-org-confirm-babel-evaluate)


This is what I obtain in the exported tex file:

\hyperref[home-henk-Dropbox-dissertation-work-flow.png]{file:/home/henk/Dropbox/dissertation/work-flow.png}


The ditaa code is between these lines:

#+CAPTION: Research work flow
#+LABEL: fig:workflow
#+begin_src ditaa :file /home/henk/Dropbox/dissertation/work-flow.png
:cmdline -r -s 1.0
......
#+end_src

If I execute the code (C-c C-c) I obtain the following:

ditaa version 0.9, Copyright (C) 2004--2009  Efstathios (Stathis) Sideris

Running with options:
round-corners
scale = 1.0
Reading file: /tmp/babel-4681Hni/ditaa-46811gs
Locale: en_CA
Dialog.bold
Rendering to file: /home/henk/Dropbox/dissertation/work-flow.png
Done in 5sec

The png file is created.  The only issue is the faulty tex code that
is generated.


I have also noticed that the editing of the org file sometimes slows
down considerably.  Maybe it has nothing to do with it, but it
happened after I started using ditaa.  I am wondering about using TikZ
instead.

Thanks,
Henri-Paul

When I export the following simple ditaa block

#+begin_src ditaa :file work-flow.png
    +-------+             +--------+
    |       |             |        |
    | Org   |------------>| Tex    |
    |       |             |        |
    +-------+             +--------+
#+end_src

I get the following in the resulting .tex file.

\includegraphics[width=.9\linewidth]{work-flow.png}

Are you using the most recent version of Org-mode?  Perhaps try starting
up Emacs with a minimal configuration using the -Q flag to the emacs
executable, and see if the problem persists.  If not it is caused by
something else in your configuration.

Is the previous text inserted into your org-mode buffer?  If so then
that is certainly wrong, the only thing inserted into the org buffer as
results should be a file link to the resulting image.

This could be due to the `org-src-fontify-natively', try setting this
variable to nil and see if the problem persists.

On a side note (and personal preference) I would highly recommend using
TikZ for LaTeX documents as the finished product seamlessly integrates
with the rest of the document and scales nicely from posted to post-card
printings.

Yes, I agree.  I had used TikZ previously and liked it a lot.  I have
left ditaa after trying it with minimal example and still having the
problem. I do not have time to look at it any longer.

I wrote the TikZ code instead in my org file and that works very well.

Thanks,
Henri-Paul
