Fail to pass arguments to orbital module of chemmacros when used inside chemfig












0














While illustrating atomic orbitals for 1,3-butadiene guided by examples in chemmacros' manual, I receive the following error:



Argument of orbital has an extra }. }



MWE:



documentclass{article}

usepackage{chemmacros}

    chemsetup{modules = all}

    chemsetup[orbital]{overlay}

usepackage{chemfig}

    setchemfig{

        atom sep = 2.5em

    }



begin{document}



chemfig{

    orbital{p}

    -[:30]orbital{p}

    -[:-30]{orbital[phase=-]{p}}

    -[:30]{orbital[phase=-]{p}}

}



end{document}


pdflatex produces the following [incorrect] structure:



Defected structure of 1,3-butadiene



The same error occurs for the examples from the manual where optional arguments are passed to orbital[...]{...} inside chemfig{...}. I'm using fully updated TeXLive 2018.

          Empirically I found out that putting arguments inside {...} (and not entire orbital[...]{...} command) solves the problem:



          documentclass{article}
          
usepackage{chemmacros}
          
    chemsetup{modules = all}
          
    chemsetup[orbital]{overlay}
          
usepackage{chemfig}
          
    setchemfig{
          
        atom sep = 2.5em
          
    }

chemfig{

}
          

          
end{document}


          1,3-butadiene



          I'm still not sure what caused the former solution to stop working; maybe it has something to do with the recent chemfig update.
