I was courious to know how many line of expl3 code is in the LaTeX kernel. I run a python script (code below) to count the number of lines in each dtx file in the base directory of the LaTeX2e repository. The result I got is taht around 17% of the code is written in expl3. The breaking of this number for each file is below. I guess there are some improvements to be done: Don't count documentation lines. Include files in other directories (requires, tools ...) Use the striped tex files instead the dtx files? Some other? Can someone improve this estimate? (Apologize the use of python for these; I am force today to use a Windows machine, and I can't use some awk and shell tools to this work easier. I did it in a dirty way 🙁 ) total_lines expl3lines % alltt.dtx 224 0 0 classes.dtx 4505 0 0 doc.dtx 6293 517 8.2 docstrip.dtx 4603 0 0 exscale.dtx 202 0 0 fix-cm.dtx 829 0 0 fontdef.dtx 1623 0 0 graphpap.dtx 195 0 0 ifthen.dtx 558 0 0 inputenc.dtx 3053 0 0 latex209.dtx 1152 4 0.3 latexrelease.dtx 1355 237 17.5 latexsym.dtx 203 0 0 letter.dtx 1950 0 0 ltalloc.dtx 176 0 0 ltbibl.dtx 481 0 0 ltboxes.dtx 1622 0 0 ltclass.dtx 4171 2 0 ltcmd.dtx 5867 5753 98.1 ltcmdhooks.dtx 1865 1672 89.7 ltcntrl.dtx 326 0 0 ltcounts.dtx 881 0 0 ltdefns.dtx 2837 0 0 ltdirchk.dtx 1031 0 0 lterror.dtx 915 0 0 ltexpl.dtx 602 81 13.5 ltfilehook.dtx 1840 408 22.2 ltfiles.dtx 1842 20 1.1 ltfinal.dtx 1554 143 9.2 ltfloat.dtx 1690 0 0 ltfntcmd.dtx 806 0 0 ltfssaxes.dtx 4544 0 0 ltfssbas.dtx 2550 5 0.2 ltfsscmp.dtx 378 0 0 ltfssdcl.dtx 2234 131 5.9 ltfssini.dtx 2459 0 0 ltfsstrc.dtx 2053 25 1.2 lthooks.dtx 8160 5775 70.8 lthyphen.dtx 143 0 0 ltidxglo.dtx 218 0 0 ltkeys.dtx 740 573 77.4 ltlength.dtx 184 0 0 ltlists.dtx 1227 0 0 ltlogos.dtx 124 0 0 ltluatex.dtx 2201 0 0 ltmarks.dtx 2406 1519 63.1 ltmath.dtx 1483 0 0 ltmeta.dtx 251 81 32.3 ltmiscen.dtx 1899 0 0 ltoutenc.dtx 3861 0 0 ltoutput.dtx 6682 0 0 ltpage.dtx 438 41 9.4 ltpageno.dtx 101 0 0 ltpar.dtx 189 0 0 ltpara.dtx 1353 670 49.5 ltpictur.dtx 2046 0 0 ltplain.dtx 1745 0 0 ltproperties.dtx 1018 531 52.2 ltsect.dtx 1101 0 0 ltshipout.dtx 2270 1305 57.5 ltsockets.dtx 1218 459 37.7 ltspace.dtx 1500 0 0 lttab.dtx 1675 0 0 lttagging.dtx 1661 954 57.4 lttemplates.dtx 2830 2066 73 lttextcomp.dtx 2778 0 0 ltthm.dtx 319 0 0 ltvers.dtx 448 0 0 ltxdoc.dtx 728 0 0 ltxref.dtx 668 0 0 makeindx.dtx 313 0 0 newlfont.dtx 204 0 0 nfssfont.dtx 499 0 0 oldlfont.dtx 252 0 0 preload.dtx 269 0 0 proc.dtx 449 0 0 slides.dtx 2740 0 0 syntonly.dtx 282 0 0 utf8ienc.dtx 2327 0 0 Total 130469 22972 17.6 We can see that new features like ltcmd or the hook mechanism (ltchooks.dtx) are close to pure expl3. Despite the great work of the LaTeX project tema (small bang is getting bigger with the tagging), most parts of the kernel are not use expl3 at this moemnt. Are we going to see a 100% expl3 usage? Does this question make any sense? 😀 The code: import re import glob import pandas as pd def count_lines(filename): num_lines = sum(1 for _ in open(filename, encoding="utf8")) return num_lines starttag = "ExplSyntaxOn" endtag = "ExplSyntaxOff" pattern = rf"{starttag}(.*?){endtag}" # make pattern def count_expl3(filename): # get input with open(filename, "r", encoding="utf8") as fp: data = fp.read() # read in all the data to a string results = re.findall(pattern, data, flags=re.DOTALL) # DOTALL finds over multiple lines # print out results (you could write it to a file instead) find_lines = [] for res in results: for item in res.strip().split("\n"): find_lines.append(item) return len(find_lines) line_data = {} for latexfile in glob.glob("*.dtx"): total_lines = count_lines(latexfile) expl3_lines = count_expl3(latexfile) line_data[latexfile] = {"total_lines": total_lines, "expl3lines": expl3_lines} df = pd.DataFrame(line_data) df = df.head().transpose() df.loc['Total'] = df.sum(numeric_only=True) df['%'] = ((df["expl3lines"] / df["total_lines"]) * 100).round(1) print(df.to_markdown())

NewComputerModern is adding support for more diacritics including titlo (UFE2E+UFE2F). When titlo is placed above two consecutive letters of the same height then everything works as expected. For example в︮д︯ produces But if letters of unequal height are used, say вй, the titlo is broken: Similarly, when three letters are used, then the two titlo endings must be joined with a straight line: What is needed is a similar construction used in MathMode for \overparen where a starting and an ending glyph is used and joined with a line. But in text mode. Is there any way to achieve this? I can share an otf before release for testing.

Disclaimer: This is a bit a XY problem, or rather: I have a problem X and I have a solution Y which works but does not really make me happy. Background: I have an environment, say {foo}, which I use for school tests. In the environment I can have solutions, whose presence is controlled by a boolean \ifsolution. Sometimes I want to print the pupils' version: easy, set \solutionfalse. Sometimes I want to print my own version: also easy, use \solutiontrue. Sometimes, I want to have a pdf file which contains both versions, first without and and then with solution: also easy, just use the environ package or the b specifier to collect the content and print it twice. Problem: All three versions can be easily obtained by \NewDOcumentEnvironment{foo}{+b}{...}{...}. However, this breaks synctex, and that might be a bit annoying. My idea was therefore to define an environment that collects its argument only in the last case, when I need both versions. I've managed it like this: \documentclass{article} \newif\ifsolution \def\solution#1{\ifsolution#1\fi} \newtoks\mytoks \long\def\collectfoo#1\end#2{% \mytoks\expandafter{\the\mytoks#1}% \def\tempa{foo}% \def\tempb{#2}% \ifx\tempa\tempb \def\next{\end{foo}}% \else \def\next{\mytoks\expandafter{\the\mytoks\end{#2}}\collectfoo}% \fi \next } \newenvironment{foo}[1]{% \ifdefined\foox\errmessage{You cannot nest {foo}!}\else\let\foox\relax\fi \par \def\nextA{}% \def\nextB{}% \ifcase#1\relax\solutionfalse\or% 0 = without solution \solutiontrue\else% 1 = with solution \def\nextA{\mytoks{}\collectfoo}% else once with and once without \def\nextB{\solutionfalse\the\mytoks\par\solutiontrue\the\mytoks}\fi \nextA }{% \nextB \par } \begin{document} \begin{foo}{0} An environment to see if the scan works: \begin{itemize} \item bla \item bar \end{itemize} If I've done it right, there should be nothing here: \solution{foo bar baz} \end{foo} \vskip2ex\hrule\vskip2ex \begin{foo}{1} An environment to see if the scan works: \begin{itemize} \item bla \item bar \end{itemize} If I've done it right, there should be something here: \solution{foo bar baz} \end{foo} \vskip2ex\hrule\vskip2ex \begin{foo}{2} An environment to see if the scan works: \begin{itemize} \item bla \item bar \end{itemize} If I've done it right, this should appear twice, fist without and then with something here: \solution{foo bar baz} \end{foo} \end{document} The result is what I expect, but of course my way to collect the environment's content is very rough. (No environment stack like amsmath or environ.) The question is basically: can this be done better?

I am using biblatex on Overleaf to cite in my Beamer document. When I don't specify any styles, \usepackage{biblatex} \addbibresource{references.bib} works just fine. But I want the citations to look like [Author,Year]. When I try to add [style=authoryear] to the usepackage command the file just crashes with no explanation given. I am using pdflatex to compile.

I am using tikz to make a PA Dutch hex sign-like image. How can I make the comma-like shape that is seen below? I will ultimately be replicating it and rotating it around a center point, but I don't know how to get the basic shape to begin with.

I've been trying to adapt the answer https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/239471 to the drawing I've been attempting, but I'm getting a strange result. I want draw an arc that begins and ends where it intersects with a triangle and spanning the interior of the triangle. My attempt at this is below. What I'm getting is a small, almond-shaped loop near one of the intersections. \documentclass[tikz]{standalone} \usepackage{pgfplots} \usetikzlibrary{fillbetween} \usetikzlibrary{3d} \usetikzlibrary{calc} \usetikzlibrary{intersections} \usetikzlibrary{perspective} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[scale=1.25, font=\sffamily] \pgfmathsetmacro{\alphasma}{1.4} \coordinate (O) at (0,0,0); \node at (O) {O}; \begin{scope}[scale=4,purple,very thick] \coordinate (X) at (0,0,1); \coordinate (Y) at (1,0,0); \draw[->] (O) -- (Y) node[anchor=north east]{\Large Y}; \draw[->] (O) -- (X) node[anchor=south]{\Large X}; \end{scope} \begin{scope}[3d view={90}{0.1}] \begin{scope}[scale=5,orange] \begin{scope}[rotate around y=20,black] \begin{scope}[rotate around z=-10,cyan] \begin{scope}[ canvas is xy plane at z=0, very thick ] \path[name path=lambdaArc] (O) circle [x radius=.95,y radius=.45]; \draw[name path=O-X-Y,dashed] (O) -- ($(O)!2*\alphasma!(X)$) -- ($(O)!2*\alphasma!(Y)$) -- cycle; \draw[red,thin, intersection segments={of=lambdaArc and O-X-Y,sequence=L3}]; \draw[orange,dashed] (O) circle [x radius=.95,y radius=.45]; \end{scope} \end{scope} \end{scope} \end{scope} \end{scope} \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} This is part of a larger diagram I am making.

The desired output is with an overlay; but \tl_show:N prevents inhibits it. Though I found a workaround for this, \tl_log:N, it has cost me time so I thought I'd post it for insights.

A journal with which I'm associated is considering moving to CharisSIL for the font. So I've been trying to experiment with it. This is for a maths journal, so we're using Greek and small caps and various other things. After installing various packages, I'm now getting the following error: kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / --bdpi 600 --mag 1+0/600 --dpi 600 charssil-tlf-sc-ot1--base mktexpk: don't know how to create bitmap font for charssil-tlf-sc-ot1--base. mktexpk: perhaps charssil-tlf-sc-ot1--base is missing from the map file. The file charssil.map is installed, however, and charssil-tlf-sc-ot1--base is listed there. What to do? I have also done: > kpsewhich charssil.map /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/fonts/map/dvips/charissil/charssil.map and sudo updmap-sys enable=charssil.map None of that helped.

Good afternoon, so I found about parnotes which work quite good, till I was in the search of a little annoyance in vertical lines in my table to look as booktabs. As suggested I tried the tabularraypackage because I had some issue with vertical clearance using the suggested nicematrix's {NiceTabular} environment. So when using \parnote{} insidea {tblr} environment, whether using the command cell{myNumberOfRows}{} = {}{} in the table preamble, or the given \SetCell[r=myNumberOfRows]{....} inside {tblr}, when I call \parnotes I get the note repeated as many times as specified by myNumberOfRows but with an increasing marking number, the same that was given in the table, as the last one is usually visible.

I have the following document \documentclass{article} \usepackage{fontsetup} \usepackage{amsmath} \newcommand{\coordRng}{\operatorname{\Gamma}} \begin{document} \(\coordRng (X)\) \(\Gamma\) \end{document} and when built by LuaLatex it has the following output: and I get the warning: Missing character: There is no 𝛤 (U+1D6E4) in font [NewCM10-Book.otf]:mode= Note that the Gamma that was supposed to be typeset by \coordRng is missing. Without the \operatorname command it typesets. If instead one does not use fontsetup, \coordRng also typesets fine.

What is the best way to demonstrate a tagged PDF vs untagged. I don't mean a verification mark. I am looking for a, preferably Linux, screen reader that can read a tagged pdf and its formulas correctly.

I'm creating example papers in LaTeX with different PDF backgrounds for different pages, and demo PDFs are given as follows: First page: example-image-a.pdf Odd pages (except first): example-image-b.pdf Even pages: example-image-c.pdf I need to set different geometry margins for each page type to align text content properly with these backgrounds. Here's my minimal example: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{lipsum} \def\iExam{1} \newif\ifexam \ifnum\iExam=1 \examtrue \else \examfalse \fi % ===== background ===== \usepackage{pdfpages} \ifexam % with PDF background \AddToShipoutPictureBG{ \ifnum\value{page}=1 % first page \put(0,0){\includegraphics[width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight]{example-image-a.pdf}} \else \ifodd\value{page} % odd page (except first page) \put(0,0){\includegraphics[width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight]{example-image-b.pdf}} \else % even page \put(0,0){\includegraphics[width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight]{example-image-c.pdf}} \fi \fi } \fi % ===== geometry ===== \usepackage{geometry} \ifexam % special definitions (with PDF background) \ifnum\value{page}=1 % first page \geometry{top=58mm,bottom=32mm,left=52mm,right=14mm,includeheadfoot} \else \ifodd\value{page} % odd page (except first page) \geometry{top=18mm,bottom=32mm,left=52mm,right=14mm,includeheadfoot} \else % even page \geometry{top=18mm,bottom=32mm,left=32mm,right=14mm,includeheadfoot} \fi \fi \else % ordinary definitions \geometry{top=1cm,bottom=1.5cm,left=1cm,right=1cm} \fi \begin{document} \section{earth} \lipsum[1-11] \section{universe} \lipsum[1-11] \end{document} Problem: The geometry settings are evaluated only once at document initialization (when \value{page}=1), so all pages get the first page's margins. The conditional logic based on \value{page} doesn't work as intended for subsequent pages. What I need: (just ignore the same parts e.g. bottom=32mm,right=14mm,includeheadfoot) Page 1: top=58mm, left=52mm Odd pages (3,5,...): top=18mm, left=52mm Even pages (2,4,6,...): top=18mm, left=32mm Constraints: I need a solution that works with \AddToShipoutPictureBG for background images Should handle multi-page documents with different margin requirements per page Ideally minimal and elegant (avoiding complex packages if possible) Must work in both XeLaTeX and PDFLaTeX What I've tried: Using \AtBeginShipout hooks (various packages like atbegshi, everypage) The background package with \AddEverypageHook Redefining \geometry inside the background placement logic None of these approaches have successfully changed margins per page. The main challenge seems to be that geometry settings are global, while I need per-page adjustments. Is there a way to dynamically change page margins based on the current page number, or to set different margins for odd/even pages when using different background images?

I meant to restrict the overlay to all but the last page, but this setup fails due to \zref@extractdefault{abspage}{abspage}{0} stuck at 0.

I'm trying to customize the quote environment for a novel (citations at the beginning of each chapter), and I'm having troubles in setting custom vertical line spacing, horizontal line length, the left/right horizontal spacing (quote margins), and the space above and below the quotes. How can I add the following parameters to the squote macro defined in the code below? Also, take note that the epigraph macro will probably by erased because currently it's clashing with the centered chapter number. I need to control the quote's left and right margins (say 1 inch on both sides), or the left marging and line length. Also, I need to control the vertical line spacing inside the quotes (say constant one half spacing between each line or something else that would be elegant. Any expert suggestion on this, for small size text?). And the vertical space above and below the quote text should be adjusted for elegance with a constant spacing (I'll have to experiment to find the proper value. Any suggestion would be appreciated). I believe the vertical spacing between the chapter title and the quote is currently too large. And since I'm currently experimenting with the macros to find the best configuration and disposition, I may have to place the quotes on the right side of the page, below the chapter title, as what the epigraph is currently doing. All my previous experiments failed. Here's a MWE with my current settings to play with: \documentclass[11pt,twoside]{book} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[tt=false]{libertinus} \usepackage[french]{babel} \usepackage[stretch=50]{microtype} \usepackage[letterpaper,left=1.25in,right=1in,top=0.5in,bottom=0.5in,includeheadfoot,headheight=15pt,showframe]{geometry} \raggedbottom %\onehalfspacing %\setstretch{1.25} \setlength{\parindent}{1.5em} \linespread{1.1} \usepackage{titlesec} \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage[dvipsnames]{xcolor} \titleformat{\chapter}[display] {\normalfont\huge\bfseries\centering} {\chaptertitlename\ \thechapter}{20pt}{\Huge} \usepackage{epigraph} \renewcommand{\textflush}{flushleft} \setlength{\epigraphrule}{0pt} %\setlength{\epigraphwidth}{0.5\textwidth} \newcommand{\epig}[2]{\epigraphhead[60]{\epigraph{\itshape{#1}}{\itshape{#2}}}} % a macro that will probably be erased. % THIS MACRO TO BE EDITED AND ADJUSTED: \newenvironment{squote}{ \begin{quote}\itshape\small}{\end{quote}} \begin{document} \chapter{A Nice chapter title here} \epig{ Some very funny quote text from nobody, and here's another line of text just to make you smile, but really, this quote environment isn't satisfaying yet, because it's too close to the chapter title. }{} \begin{squote} This is one fancy line of text to show a pretty medium long quote line, \\ this is the next line quote text to say anything wildly funny. This is another useless text of line just to show how smart I'm not. \end{squote} Some dummy text to show the paragraph spacing below the quoted text above. Oh well, another line of dumb text, and yes maybe I should use the lorem ipsum package to add something wild in there. But nevermind, I don't need it! \end{document} Here's a preview of what this MWE is doing:

I switched to TexStudio from Overleaf recently. I do miss the autocomplete suggestions in Overleaf where you don't have to get the cases or even the order of the words in the label right for the autocomplete to suggest it. For example, if the label is "Def cusp aut form", I would like to have it suggested to me if I type in "def aut" or "Aut". Is there a way to configure TexStudio to do this? Or a plugin perhaps?

I would like to put parentheses around one column of a tikz-cd diagram — something like the diagram in the example below, but with the second set of parens around just the left-hand vertical of the square, not the whole square as currently. I would like the diagram otherwise roughly unchanged from how it is without the parentheses, but it’s fine if they slightly affect the alignment/spacing, so long as they don’t change the essential layout. MWE source \documentclass[a5paper]{article} \usepackage{tikz,tikz-cd} \usepackage{amssymb} \begin{document} \[ f^* \left( \begin{tikzcd}[baseline={([yshift=-axis_height]\tikzcdmatrixname)}] % vertical alignment adjusted as in https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/678935/ Z \ar[d,"g"] \\ X \end{tikzcd} \right) = \left( \begin{tikzcd}[baseline={([yshift=-axis_height]\tikzcdmatrixname)}] \bullet \ar[d] \ar[r] \ar[dr,phantom,"\lrcorner", very near start] & Z \ar[d,"g"] \\ Y \ar[r,"f"] & X \end{tikzcd} \right) \] \end{document} One approach I have tried, but did not get satisfactory: using various combinations of \phantom and \mathrlap around a copy of the diagram consisting of just the column in question, as in the following snippet.

I'm working on creating a specific two-column table in \LaTeX. The second column, $f(n)$, contains expressions that are linear combinations of $\alpha$, $\beta$, and $\gamma$, but not all terms are present in every row. My goal is to achieve a consistent column alignment for the coefficients of $\alpha$, $\beta$, and $\gamma$ across all rows, with consistent spacing around the $+$ signs. The terms $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$ themselves should also align. To achieve this alignment, I currently rely heavily on \phantom{} and empty {} groups, which feels overly complicated. I suspect there is a much cleaner, more idiomatic approach that I am missing. Since I'm not very proficient, could you please critique my current approach and suggest a more robust method to achieve this specific alignment? Here is my current code snippet: \documentclass{article} \begin{document} \[ \begin{array}{@{}c|c@{}} n & f(n) \\ \hline 1 & \phantom{0}\alpha\phantom{{}+0\beta+0\gamma} \\ \hline 2 & 2\alpha+\phantom{0}\beta\phantom{{}+0\gamma} \\ 3 & 2\alpha\phantom{{}+0\beta}+\phantom{0}\gamma \\ \hline 4 & 4\alpha+3\beta\phantom{{}+0\gamma} \\ 5 & 4\alpha+2\beta+\phantom{0}\gamma \\ 6 & 4\alpha+\phantom{0}\beta+2\gamma \\ 7 & 4\alpha\phantom{{}+0\beta}+3\gamma \\ \hline 8 & 8\alpha+7\beta\phantom{{}+0\gamma} \\ 9 & 8\alpha+6\beta+\phantom{0}\gamma \end{array} \] \end{document}

I'm trying to have text wrap around other text or a figure as is supposed to be done with wrapfigure. However I'm encountering an issue where there is a lot of whitespace under the wrapfig when the text that's supposed to wraping around it includes section/subsection/paragraph headers, enumerations, or lists, as is seen in the attached picture. This happens regardless of what's in the wrapfig, be in a boxed minipage, just text, or an image. I cannot figure out how to remove this whitespace. Is there some other package I should be using, or some way to fix this? This was crossposted in Stack Overflow.

I have tried, e.g., \noexpand and some such incantations, but with no luck. Thank you in advance for your help.

I would like to have a framed box that contains some (justified) text and, on the side, a figure with its label and caption, something like this: I think/I read on other threads that some starting points may be the "wrapfigure" package, parbox(es) and/or minipages, but I cannot find an example where these features are used the way I want, and I cannot understand it by myself (tried the whole morning). Anyone has any idea? Thanks in advance, Jacorem EDIT: what I tried so far: wrap text around a figure inside a floating box In this case, the float is the whole box and the caption/label is given to it + the image is at the left of the text. I would like to give the caption to only the image and place it under the image itself. I think that one can adapt a little bit the code of this example, but since I do not want the whole box to be treated as a figure (as I said, I want the caption to be put under the figure, not somewhere else), I changed the figure environment to a minipage one, and I put the figure environment inside the sbox0 ==> compilation error cannot really understand how to use the \hangafter/\hangindent command to switch left and right I'm not sure that simple moving the caption in the \sbox0 may work Floating "Tip" box using wrapfigure No figure Making a boxed minipage environment No figure tried mixing this and several other possibilities (including creating a single cell table) starting with code-less suggestions found online, resulting in error or very bad layout (like text overlapping itself and/or the reduced textwith perduring in the whole section)

The following is an example from an English book. I'm planning to rewrite it in latex. The layout is with an itemize of points in the middle, and with "CONNECTIONS" notes along the two sides. I tried to solve it using TikZ, but the vertical align is hard to control. \documentclass{article} \usepackage{graphicx} % Required for inserting images \usepackage{tikz} \begin{document} \begin{center} \begin{tikzpicture} \node[draw,text width=3.1cm] at (0cm,0) {CONNECTIONS Because \\ \vspace{\baselineskip} It \\ and \\ Though \\ Since ... not \\ only \\ but also \vspace{\baselineskip} }; \node[draw,text width=6.3cm] at (5.1cm,0) {\begin{center} POINTS \end{center} 1. Brazil needs to be developed. \\ 2. New city, Brasilia, built 600 miles, Rio. \\ 3. Designed Lucio Costa. \\ 4. Became capital 1960. \\ 5. Planned for modern living. \\ 6. People at first reluctant to go. \\ 7. 1960 - population increasing. \\ 8.

I would like to draw a sphere, of radius 3, and an ellipsoid of semi-axis 2, 3 and 4 together. They intersect at two great circles on the sphere (marked in red). I started out with the sphere and the great circles: \documentclass[border=2mm]{standalone} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{3dtools}% https://github.com/marmotghost/tikz-3dtools \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[3d/install view={phi=120,theta=70},line cap=butt, line join=round,declare function={R=3;},c/.style={circle,fill,inner sep=1pt}] \path (0,0,0) coordinate (O) ; \draw[blue,3d/screen coords] (O) circle[radius=R]; \shade[ball color=white,3d/screen coords,opacity=0.7] (O) circle[radius=R]; % \shade[ball color=blue!30,3d/screen coords,opacity=0.7,xscale=2,yscale=3,zscale=4] (O) circle[radius=1]; \path pic[blue]{3d/circle on sphere={R=R,C={(O)}}}; \path pic[red]{3d/circle on sphere={R=R, n={(0.592,0,-1)}}}; % plane x = sqrt{7/10) z \path pic[red]{3d/circle on sphere={R=R, n={(0.592,0,1)}}}; % plane x = sqrt{7/10) z \draw[3d/hidden] (0,0,0) -- (0,0,R) (O)--(R,0,0) (O)--(0,R,0) (O)--(0,-R,0); \draw[3d/visible, -stealth] (R,0,0) -- (R + 4,0,0) node[below]{$x$}; \draw[3d/visible, -stealth] (0,R,0) -- (0,R + 1,0) node[right]{$y$}; \draw[3d/visible, -stealth] (0,0,R) -- (0,0,R + 1.5) node[above]{$z$}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} and everything is right so far: but when I remove the comment on the line that I would expect to draw the ellipsoid \shade[ball color=blue!30,3d/screen coords,opacity=0.7,xscale=2,yscale=3,zscale=4] (O) circle[radius=1]; I get something that is far from what I expected, including the fact that the zscale is not understood. How can one add the intersecting elipsoide to this image?

I would like to add a reversed gray shadow under a title to mimmic a mirror effect. How can we do that with standard pdflatex (the live tex distribution)? Currtently, the code below only add a dull projected shadow under the title. Is there a way to vertically reverse the shadow? Here's a MWE to edit and play with: \documentclass[11pt,twoside]{book} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[tt=false]{libertinus} \usepackage[french]{babel} \usepackage[stretch=50]{microtype} \usepackage[letterpaper,left=1.25in,right=1in,top=0.5in,bottom=0.5in,includeheadfoot,headheight=15pt]{geometry} \usepackage[dvipsnames]{xcolor} \usepackage{shadowtext} \begin{document} \begin{titlepage} \shadowoffsetx{2.5pt} \shadowoffsety{3.5pt} \shadowcolor{gray!40} \centering \vspace*{\baselineskip} \vfill {\textcolor{black}{\fontsize{26}{0}\selectfont\sffamily\textbf{\shadowtext{DOCUMENT TITLE}}}} \\[2.5\baselineskip] \vfill {\textcolor{black}{\huge\sffamily Author}} \vfill \end{titlepage} Text \end{document}

How do I get the table to respect the “new” left margin/indent in a list so it centres correctly, rather than the full-page text width? \documentclass[10pt]{book} \usepackage{booktabs} \usepackage{tabularx} \usepackage{floatrow} \usepackage[singlelinecheck=false]{caption} \usepackage{lipsum} \begin{document} \begin{enumerate} \item \lipsum[1][1-5] \begin{table}[H] \ttabbox {\caption{Grupp 2}} {\begin{tabularx}{0.7\textwidth}{XX} \toprule \multicolumn{2}{c}{Maschile} \\ Singolare -o & Plurale -i\\ \midrule ragazzo & ragazzi\\ giardino & giardini\\ \bottomrule \end{tabularx}} \end{table} \lipsum[1][1-5] \end{enumerate} \begin{table}[H] \ttabbox {\caption{Grupp 2}} {\begin{tabularx}{0.7\textwidth}{XX} \toprule \multicolumn{2}{c}{Maschile} \\ Singolare -o & Plurale -i\\ \midrule ragazzo & ragazzi\\ giardino & giardini\\ \bottomrule \end{tabularx}} \end{table} \end{document} As shown in the image, the first table in the list is centred within the margins of the whole page.

Please help. OT3 is a very old encoding and I want to use it for stylistic reasons to make my document look old. EDIT: I figured out how, but I have a new question: does OT3 and \usepackage{ipa} redefine existing macros from other encodings?

Suppose we are working in the three-dimensional real vector space V. A cone is a subset C of V such that if an element v of V lies in C, then all of its nonnegative multiples also lie in C. I would like to draw, using TikZ, a cone that simulates infinitely many extremal rays, all accumulating toward a fixed one. A section of the cone should therefore look like a “polygon with infinitely many sides”. For example, the cone here Tikz: cones with a wide base is a circular one. I would like mine to be "polyhedral" away from the accumulation ray. How would you do that?

I have a list of numbers from 1 to 12. I want to print the numbers 3,6,9 and 12 in purple, the others in blue. With my code: \documentclass{standalone} \usepackage{tikz,ifthen} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture} \foreach \i in {1,...,12}{ \ifthenelse {\i/3=int(\i/3)} {\draw[purple] (.75*\i,0) node () {\i};}{\draw[blue] (.75*\i,0) node () {\i};} } \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} I have errors and all numbers in blue. Why?
