Q: Geometry margin causing tasks alignment issue

PravinFor some reason, if one sets a margin using the geometry package, this causes an alignment problem with the tasks package: MWE: \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage{amsmath,geometry,tasks} \geometry{a4paper, margin=2cm} \NewTasks[counter-format={tsk[a])}]{problems}[\item](4) \begin{docum...

TeXperts, can't anybody help? ^^^

@CarLaTeX \raggedright makes little sense for tasks. Probably reinstating justification for the duration of the environment is the simplest way out.
 
@egreg OK, if you don't want to add an answer, I'll modify mine... thank you!
 
9:42 AM
@barbarabeeton ooh turtles
 
@PauloCereda … all the way down …
 
@HaraldHanche-Olsen ooh I know the reference
We ducks are good with universe thingies
 
@HaraldHanche-Olsen OMG

Just edited a tag description to get this ^^^ :):):)
 
11:09 AM
@CarLaTeX: I wrote an answer.
 
@PauloCereda Great! <3 <3 <3
 
@CarLaTeX :-)
 
@CarLaTeX First palindrome?
 
11:22 AM
@CarLaTeX You don't need too much to become a trusted user (20K) and so receive @PauloCereda's credit card number.
 
@DavidCarlisle This tag will be delete because nobody will use it :):):)
@egreg No, not the first one, but there is the comma (@DavidCarlisle)
@egreg I've already prepared the wish list on Amazon :):):)
 
@JosephWright do you understand the comment? (isn't always the same as scale, really?)
 
@DavidCarlisle That's I think the problem: it's obvious to me (and you) that 'dpi' is a distraction, but some users don't get it
 
@CarLaTeX also after a while I think tag wiki edits don't affect your score so you have to rely on downvotes to get off whatever number mod 5 you are on
@CarLaTeX bbc news website today has an article about the dangers of going in to a pizza shop, you can get arrested and land in court.
 
@DavidCarlisle Only if they sell pineapple pizzas :)
 
11:29 AM
@DavidCarlisle Ah, that case
 
@CarLaTeX you see @JosephWright knows about these things:-)
 
@DavidCarlisle Oooh, it's a problem, I downvoted only very few times!
 
@CarLaTeX It's much weirder than that!
 
@CarLaTeX receive not give, it can be a useful -2 sometimes
 
@JosephWright Oooh I'm curious now!
 
11:31 AM
@JosephWright Italians are more relaxed about these things, they probably wouldn't see what the fuss was about.
 
@DavidCarlisle I can't believe you received a downvote
 
@CarLaTeX vim users :(
 
@JosephWright LOL
 
12:20 PM
Ducks have been known to engage in unseemly behaviour too: moeliker.wordpress.com/the-duck
 
12:49 PM
@HaraldHanche-Olsen OMG and "six course duck dinner"!
 
1:32 PM
@CarLaTeX: the OP accepted my answer.
 
@PauloCereda No doubt about it! :) <3
 
@CarLaTeX <3
@CarLaTeX: you could replace Mary by a \duck. Think of the possibilities. :)

@PauloCereda Of course!
 
1:48 PM
@JosephWright oh my

@UlrikeFischer @Tobi Hope you are ok with a bit of advertisement?
 
4:12 PM
@Johannes_B ???
 
@UlrikeFischer Sorry, forgot the link. latex.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=102430#p102430
 
4:29 PM
@AlanMunn I'm wondering if you ever did this:chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/41?m=38710374#38710374
I just ran into the same problem.
 
5:01 PM
What do I have to do, if I want to publish a package on ctan?
 
@Skillmon Good will, basically. :) You need to add a simple header in your file, fill some field in an online form and send a ZIP file containing your files. :)
 
5:33 PM
@PauloCereda then here you go ducksay :)
 
@Skillmon yay
 
5:47 PM
@PauloCereda something to keep you from your thesis: bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/shows/sarah-and-duck
 
@DavidCarlisle OH MY
 
6:01 PM
When your unit test passes locally but inexplicably fails in CI. Either I'm too tired to debug or something really weird is going on.
@JosephWright, @DavidCarlisle ^^
 
@PauloCereda testing, it'll never catch on.
 
@DavidCarlisle :)
 
6:15 PM
@PauloCereda upload done. Now I'm a package author :)

@Skillmon yay! Congrats!
 
6:35 PM
@AdamLiter My solution: sudo mv /usr/local/texlive/2017/texmf-dist/tex/xelatex/langsci/biblatex-sp-unified.bbx /usr/local/texlive/2017/texmf-dist/tex/xelatex/langsci/biblatex-sp-unified-ERROR‌​S.bbx
@AdamLiter BTW we're testing more passives very soon and can get back to our paper. :)
@AdamLiter But to answer the question, I haven't bugged Kai to do this.
 
7:00 PM
Hi, I have a question. I've made a 2-3-4 tree for a problem on my assignment and it requires pdfLaTeX to compile. For the other problem in my assignment, I've made a red black tree that uses LuaLaTeX to compile. Is it possible to compile both of these in the same document?
 
@Steve you might compile them standalone and include the resulting pdfs into your document, but I don't know of any way to use two engines at once.
 
@Steve What is it about the first one that does not let you compile it in lualatex?
 
@AlanMunn ooh and my paper?
 
@HaraldHanche-Olsen I asked before I tried it out. It worked, but texmaker ignores the inputenc package
@Skillmon That's what I thought of doing before I compiled using LuaLaTeX
 
@Steve Um, okay. I don't know the first thing about texmaker, so can't help. Sorry.
 
7:12 PM
Thanks anyway. Do you happen to know the major differences between pdfLatex and LuaLatex? @HaraldHanche-Olsen
 
@Steve Obviously, the big difference is lua. So far, I haven't seen anything that pdfTeX will do that luaTeX can't. But I am pretty new to luatex myself, so that doesn't prove much.
 
Nice to know. It's certainly easier to draw trees with LuaLatex, I might be using that instead going forward.
 
7:32 PM
@Steve don't use inputenc with luatex (texmaker isn't really involved, that's just the editor you are using)
@UlrikeFischer you haven't seen any recent miktex bug reports like this have you? tex.stackexchange.com/questions/392643/…
 
8:04 PM
@PauloCereda Your paper is currently in the same state as your thesis. :)
 
8:21 PM
@AlanMunn you are mean
 
8:38 PM
Aug 16 at 19:51, by Paulo Cereda
@AlanMunn: you are not mean. :)
 
@DavidCarlisle Beat me to it. :)
 
@AlanMunn I have practice

@JosephWright ^^ hmm perhaps not quite right
 
@DavidCarlisle Ooops
 
@JosephWright still good filename don't you agree?
 
@DavidCarlisle 'I am the a-umlaut and the omega'?
 
@JosephWright exactly.
 
Just trying to spread the word about my proposal
 
@DavidCarlisle :)
 
@JosephWright iffileexists and input work but I blew up \listfiles
 
@DavidCarlisle Ah, that explains the checkin today

@JosephWright nearly there
 
9:17 PM
@DavidCarlisle Cool
 
10:15 PM
@DavidCarlisle No, and I just run a short test with example-image.jpg in texworks and the viewer shows it without problem.
 
@UlrikeFischer I'd guess it is some problem with the jpg or the OPs viewer or the OP looking at the wrong file or ... but just wondered if it was a known issue, thanks for looking
 
@DavidCarlisle Well the OP mentiones an older bug which should have been fixed. I will ask for details.
