tex export fails to compile with negative sign

[ExarchD]

It seems that negative signs are not friendly in the latex export for labelDistance and labelLocation:

\begin{feynman} 
    \gluon[label=$g$, labelDistance=-0.30, labelLocation=1.20]{2.20, 2.20}{0.20, 4.20}
    \gluon[label=$g$, labelDistance=0.60, labelLocation=-0.10]{0.20, 0.20}{2.20, 2.20}
    \gluon[color=000000, label=$g$]{2.20, 2.20}{5.20, 2.20}
    \fermion[label=$\anti{t}$, labelDistance=0.00, labelLocation=-0.14]{7.20, 4.20}{5.20, 2.20}
    \fermion[label=$t$, showArrow=true, flip=false, labelDistance=0.30, labelLocation=1.00]{5.20, 2.20}{7.20, 0.20}
\end{feynman}

Adding parentheses around the negative values fixed the problem for me.

Sorry I guess I was hasty. There are a few issues I hit with this code, and I don't think its the negative sign. Here's the error it outputs:

!FP error: UPN stack is empty!.
\FP@errmessage #1->\errmessage {FP error: #1!} 
l.15 ...abelLocation=1.20]{2.20, 2.20}{0.20, 4.20}

hey @ExarchD - thanks for submitting the issue! If adding parentheses fixes the problem, then I think the issue is in fact with the minus sign. I can submit a fix that wraps the exported values in parentheses if so.

EDIT: After playing around with this for a bit, it seems the error is with the labelLocation greater than 1.

@ExarchD this problem should be fixed now, can you verify?

Hi, I actually am still getting the same error with negative label locations. Parentheses don't solve the problem. As a minimal example:

\fermion[label=$d$, labelDistance=-0.10, labelLocation=0.35]{0.20, 10.20}{1.40, 10.20}

compiles but

\fermion[label=$d$, labelDistance=-0.10, labelLocation=-0.35]{0.20, 10.20}{1.40, 10.20}

doesn't. Parentheses don't seem to help.

@shwinnn i'm sorry to hear you're running into that. I just reproduced the problem but it might take me awhile to find the time to fix this. Until I do, you should be able to use a floating text element to put the label where you want

A label location of 0 works fine for my diagrams anyway! Thanks for the great tool.

@shwinnn - this should be fixed now. Could you confirm?

Hi, first of all thanks for this lovely tool.

Unfortunately, this (error when setting negative labelLocation) is still an issue, but following the discussion https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/460522/using-fp-package-to-compute-sum-breaks-fp-error-upn-stack-is-empty I managed to fix it by adding "0+" to line 588 of feynman.sty. \FPeval{labelX}{@temp@locX} --> \FPeval{labelX}{0+@temp@locX}

Hope it helps.
