I am working on a .tex file inside Visual Studio Code with the Latex Workshop extension installed. I get following error message when I want Latex to compile .svg files for me, following this post
You didn't enable `shell escape' (or `write18')
I tried to add '--shell-escape', '-shell-escape', '-enable-write18' to the arguments that are passed to the pdflatex tool in my settings.json with no effect...
"latex-workshop.latex.tools": [
{
"name": "pdflatex",
"command": "pdflatex",
"args": [
"-synctex=1",
"-interaction=nonstopmode",
"-file-line-error",
"%DOC%",
"--shell-escape"
],
"env": {}
},
{
"name": "bibtex",
"command": "bibtex",
"args": [
"%DOCFILE%"
],
"env": {}
}
]
--shell-escape
to be before%DOC%
with the other options like-file0line-error
pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode --shell-escape myfile.tex
the filename has to come last. Show the form you used I assume you need a comma between the arguments, looking at your existing setupdiplom.tex
and the placeholder%DOC%
which I assume expands to the filename again
