This is not really an issue for archematics, but worth writing down what I notice:

  • In Book II, Prop 14, H is defined as the "first" of HH2, but to lie on the semicircle, it should be the "last" of HH2.

  • In Book IV, Prop 1, there are two auxiliary points with color "0,0" that should be "0;0".

As does Book VI, Prop 12; Book VII, Def 1-2. & Def 3-5; Book X, Prop 54.

Book V, Def 14-16, the diagram has title V.Def.19, but there is no definition 19 (and no explanation of what the diagram shows, which is not clear to me).

In the final proposition, XIII.18, the point N should be the golden section of FB, not of EB as Joyce has it.
