The Problem From cfr's answer to my previous question, I managed to draw nice vdots in my forest tree. But now for tree={ s sep=1cm, % example of 1cm for illustrative purposes; you probably wouldn't want it to be so big l sep=1cm }, fails to be applied across the entire tree: Attempt(s) To Fix Said Problem I tried messing with before computing xy={% l'=0pt, s'=-15pt, % length of vdots }, but it didn't really work. What Help I need I've only had very modest experience with forest so I'm having trouble deducing how to modifiy cfr's code, such that the keyvals s sep and l sep work correctly. Thus, it would be nice if someone was able to help me out with this. MWE: % Source - https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/755401 % Posted by cfr, modified by community.

I modified cfr's previous answer to draw three evenly spaced vertical dots. A sketch of the desired look is as follows, where the blue line is imaginary (only there for illustrative purposes) and should not be actually drawn by TikZ. But, only one set of my custom vdots are drawn by TikZ. Any idea how to fix this? I tried appending the node names (e.g. (A)) with a counter ((A \the<counter_name>)) that is incremented with each invocation of vdots. But that didn't seem to work at all.

I want to plot something as below in an elegant appraoch, with a handy control of the angle and eccentricity: (the pattern is not important here) Here below, I make some calculations: \documentclass[tikz,border=5pt]{standalone} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[line join=round] \def\R{5} \def\ell{0.9} \def\startAngle{40} \def\endAngle{90-\startAngle} \def\rhoo{\fpeval{\R*sind(45-\startAngle)/cosd(\startAngle)}} \def\Rx{\fpeval{\rhoo*(sqrt(1-(\ell^2*cosd(\startAngle)^2)))/(sqrt(1-\ell^2))}} \def\Ry{\fpeval{\Rx*(sqrt(1-\ell^2))}} \def\ellstartAngle{\fpeval{atand(\Rx/\Ry*tand(\startAngle))}} \filldraw[ fill=cyan!30, draw=cyan, very thick ] (\R,0) arc[start angle=0, end angle=\startAngle, radius=\R] { [rotate=-\startAngle] arc[start angle=-\ellstartAngle,end angle=180+\ellstartAngle,x radius=\Rx,y radius=\Ry] } arc[start angle=\endAngle, end angle=90, radius=\R] -- (0,\R) -- (\R,\R) -- cycle; \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} But it gives some drawbacks of the ellipse's ending tip: With the following sketch: My calculation thoughts is as below: noted that \StartAngle is \theta, and \ell is the ellipse's eccentricity with \def\rhoo{\fpeval{\R*sind(45-\startAngle)/cosd(\startAngle)}}, I want to derive the radius from origin of the ellipse, that is the \rho's distance in the sketch with the formula of the radius length from origin of the ellipse, that is: I want to derive the x-radius of ellipse, that is a(\Rx) via \def\Rx{\fpeval{\rhoo*(sqrt(1-(\ell^2*cosd(\startAngle)^2)))/(sqrt(1-\ell^2))}} Then I calaulated the y-radius with \Rx and \ell via \def\Ry{\fpeval{\Rx*(sqrt(1-\ell^2))}} Finally, I calculate the geometric angle of sub-path rotation learning from this answer via \def\ellstartAngle{\fpeval{atand(\Rx/\Ry*tand(\startAngle))}} I really have no idea of any mathematical calculation issues or just my tikz's parameter misunderstandings. Could somebosy give me a hand? (Any approach with neat syntax are all welcome! My calculation above is just to draw this in one \path)

This question is similar to this link, but not exactly the same focues. What I want, is something like: But I want a better looking and better syntax of the arrow: The figure above is produced by: \documentclass[tikz,border=5pt]{standalone} \usetikzlibrary{bending,decorations.markings,arrows.meta,calc,spath3} \usepackage{amsmath} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[ >={Kite[inset=0pt,length=.32cm,bend]}, baz/.style={spath/save=curve}, foo/.style={ draw,tips=true,->, spath/remove empty components={curve}, spath/split at keep start={curve}{#1}, spath/use=curve }, foo/.default=0.5, ] \filldraw[thick,fill=gray!40] (4,0) node[below]{$R$} arc (0:180:4) node[below]{$-R$} -- (-3,0) arc(180:0:1) -- (1,0) arc(180:0:1) -- cycle; \path[baz] (4,0) arc (0:90:4);\path[foo=.4]; \path[baz] (0,4) arc (90:180:4);\path[foo]; \path[baz] (-3,0) arc (180:0:1);\path[foo=.55]; \path[baz] (1,0) arc (180:0:1);\path[foo=.55]; \draw[-Stealth] (-5,0) -- (5,0) node[below]{$\Re$}; \draw[-Stealth] (0,0) -- (0,5) node[right]{$\Im$}; \path node[below] {$O$} (60:4) node[above=3pt] {$C_{R}$}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} which learning from Andrew Stacey's elegant solution. However, the code above is manually seperated, my \foreach version didn't get expected result: \documentclass[tikz,border=5pt]{standalone} % https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/656167/322482 \usetikzlibrary{bending,decorations.markings,arrows.meta,calc,spath3} \usepackage{amsmath} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[>={Kite[inset=0pt,length=.32cm,bend]}] \filldraw[ thick,fill=gray!40, spath/save=curve, ] (4,0) node[below]{$R$} arc (0:180:4) node[below]{$-R$} -- (-3,0) arc(180:0:1) -- (1,0) arc(180:0:1) -- cycle; \foreach \pos in {.1,.4,.675,.9}{% \path[ draw=blue,tips=true,->, spath/clone={tmp}{curve}, spath/remove empty components={tmp}, spath/split at keep start={tmp}{\pos}, spath/use=tmp, ]; } \draw[-Stealth] (-5,0) -- (5,0) node[below]{$\Re$}; \draw[-Stealth] (0,0) -- (0,5) node[right]{$\Im$}; \path node[below] {$O$} (60:4) node[above=3pt] {$C_{R}$}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} Edited: (I seemed to find some out-of-my-intuition features with spath3 and also reported at here, but actually turn out to be my fault of understanding the pos parameter of curve).

I want to use the entire \textwidth at a table, so I chose tabularx. The table contains plots (all the same size) and boxes with titles that contain varying amounts of text or lines. The "title boxes" should all be top-aligned, all have the same width and for each row (!) the same height. This means that the "title boxes" in row 1 have the same height, and those in row 3 also have the same height; but possibly a different height than in row 1. What's the best way to configure this? I've put the "title boxes" also into tabularx tables; but perhaps multirow would be more suitable here (?). I often have problems with overfull / underfull hbox warnings here. I don't know what the ideal solution for this. Note: I plan to disable the main table's rules later; I've set \setlength\arrayrulewidth{2pt} here to better visualize the dimensions. \documentclass[paper=a5]{scrarticle} \usepackage[margin=14mm, showframe]{geometry} \usepackage{tabularx} % \usepackage{multirow}% needed? \usepackage{pgfplots} \pgfplotsset{compat=1.18} \usepackage{lipsum}% dummy text \newcommand\mytitle[1]{% {\begin{tabularx}{\linewidth}{|X|} \hline #1 \\ \hline \end{tabularx}} } \newcommand\myplot[1]{% \begin{tikzpicture}[baseline] \begin{axis}[width=\linewidth, height=30mm] \addplot[#1, mark=*]{x^4}; \end{axis} \end{tikzpicture}} \newcolumntype{Y}{% hspaces should be as small as possible @{\hspace{1.5pt}}X@{\hspace{1.5pt}}} \setlength\arrayrulewidth{2pt}% to see the effects \begin{document} \noindent\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{| Y | Y |} % Title 1 (row 1, column 1) ================== \mytitle{Title 1: \lipsum[1][1-2]} % Title 2 (row 1, column 2) ================== & \mytitle{Title 2: \lipsum[1][1]} \\ % Plot 1 (row 2, column 1) ================== \myplot{brown} % Plot 2 (row 2, column 2) ================== & \myplot{red} \\ \hline % Title 3 (row 3, column 1) ================== \mytitle{Title 3: \lipsum[1][2]} % Title 4 (row 3, column 2) ================== & \mytitle{Title 4: \lipsum[1][1-4]} \\ % Plot 3 (row 4, column 1) ================== \myplot{blue} % Plot 4 (row 4, column 2) ================== & \myplot{orange} \\ \end{tabularx} \end{document}

How can I geometrically translate a line segment on a line? I want to move the pink segment so that it starts at three and goes to four. I don't just want to teleport it.

I have a 2×2 groupplot (where the first plot should be replaced by a title "Supertitle") with titles in boxes. These "title boxes" should all have the same width, and boxes in the same row should have the same height. I achieved this using \vphantom{} because I didn't find a better method. How can I configure the settings such that the entire groupplot has a width of \textwidth? And a horizontal space between the columns like \tabcolsep (or something similar)? Is there a elegant way to do this by package keys? (resizebox etc. would certainly work, but that would be less elegant.) Ideally, it should stay a groupplot.

First, apologies if this question has been asked before. I'm trying to create an image of a particular circular domain, but my limited TikZ knowledge has made this quite challenging. I've searched for similar examples online without success. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

I am referring to this Italian lecture notes by Prof. R. Tauraso, edited by a student/lecturer Massimiliano Pompegnani (link https://moodle2.units.it/pluginfile.php/767967/mod_resource/content/1/intdoppi.pdf) My question concerns which specific libraries are needed to draw in 3D (I’m not very familiar with 3D) what to me seems drawn in MetaPost and peraphs, for the their complexity, with IPE drawing https://ipe.otfried.org/ (?), WinFIG (?). From the axes arrows it appears to be MetaPost and also the fills. ecc. I’m not asking for any code but want to be informed. There are many 3D libraries for TikZ but I have never previously been interested in 3D. Are there any similar libraries that TikZ can use to reproduce Metapost drawings?

I'm annotating a fraction with TikZ arrows pointing to specific parts. The blue arrow works fine, but the red curved arrow is bisecting the "3" in the denominator instead of arcing over it. Current behavior: The red arrow cuts straight through the middle of "3" Desired behavior: The red arrow should arc upward and over the "3" with clear space. I initially tried adjusting the out angle from 160° to 120° to make it launch upward, but this still results in the arrow bisecting the number. How do I increase the arc height to make the curve clear the "3" completely as shown in the 2nd image? Note: I'm still learning TikZ best practices. If you spot any obvious improvements to the code structure, please mention them.

I have a groupplot where I want to use the legend as the title in the \nextgroupplots. And then I have a "Supertitel" that I would like to put in place of the first groupplot.

I currently have the following simple setup for producing commutative diagrams using tikzcd and exporting them to .svg's, following the two most popular answers on this question: Put the code for the diagram in a standalone tex file. Compile. Convert to .svg using dvisvgm. This... works, mostly (better ideas are warmly welcome), but I'm running into one issue in particular that is slightly annoying. Consider the following example: \documentclass[crop,tikz]{standalone} \usetikzlibrary{cd} \begin{document} \begin{tikzcd} & & & \{1\} \ar[dd] \ar[dl] \\ \{0\} \ar[rr] \ar[dd] & & \{0, 1\} \\ & \{2\} \ar[dl] \ar[rr] & & \{1, 2\} \ar[dl] \\ \{0, 2\} \ar[rr] & & \{0, 1, 2\} \ar[from=uu, crossing over] \end{tikzcd} \end{document} If you compile this, the resulting pdf looks like this: Great, that looks fantastic. But if you now go and run dvisvgm yourfilenamehere.dvi and drop the resulting svg into something with a non-white background, you get this: This is bad for two obvious reasons: Text and background color are way too similar, and the crossing over arrow now lives on top of a white box. This box is an artifact of the way crossing over works, which simply adds a preaction to the arrow path that draws a background color colored rectangle. Consequently, both problems can be avoided by setting color and background color to something that works, see e.g. this answer. Suppose now, however, that I don't know what color the background of the document/website/etc. the svg will be embedded in has. Perhaps I know that it's going to be a dark background, so that setting the text color to white will take care of the first issue, but unless I know the precise shade of the background I can't set the crossing over box' color to perfectly match. My question, thus, is whether there is a (nice) way to solve this second issue when the final background color is not precisely known (if you have a way to dynamically alter the text color, I'd be happy to hear about it as well). (By "nice" here I mean that e.g. it's obviously possible to draw the two "pieces" of the arrow being crossed over separately and avoid crossing over entirely, but this seems to annoying to do in general unless there is some way to package it up into a flexible macro/tikz key).

I am currently facing a challenge in LyX where, after typing several lines of text, I insert TikZ code either inside a TeX box or directly into the apex preamble. However, I have observed that the text following the TikZ code is not visible. In the case of placing the code in the preamble, none of the text I have written in the document is visible. I am seeking assistance in resolving this issue and understanding how to ensure the proper display of text below inserted TikZ code in LyX. Any guidance or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

As you can see, this is not being done for my graph above, using the code below. \documentclass[]{article} \usepackage[margin=0.5in]{geometry} \usepackage{pgfplots} \renewcommand{\thesection}{\arabic{section}} \usepackage{mathtools} \usepackage{cancel} \usepackage{pgfplots} \usepackage{amsmath} \newtheorem{theorem}{THEOREM} \newtheorem{proof}{PROOF} \usepackage{tikz} \usepackage{amssymb} \usetikzlibrary{patterns} \usepackage{fancyhdr} \usepackage{bigints} \usepackage{color} \usepackage{tcolorbox} \usepackage{color,xcolor} \usepackage{booktabs,array} \usepackage{hyperref} \usepackage{graphicx} \usetikzlibrary{arrows} \usepackage{polynom} \usepackage{wallpaper} \usetikzlibrary{shapes.geometric} \usepgfplotslibrary{fillbetween} \newenvironment{tightcenter}{ \setlength\topsep{0pt} \setlength\parskip{0pt} \begin{center}}{\end{center}} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture} \begin{axis}[ %axis lines=middle, grid=major, %ticks=none, xmin=0, xmax=4.2, ymin=0, ymax=0.55, clip=false, xtick={0,1,2,3,4}, xticklabels={$0$,$1$,$2$,$3$,$4$}, ytick={0,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4,0.5}, height=10cm, width=14cm, %axis line style={shorten >=-10pt, shorten <=-10pt}, yticklabel style={ fill=white, %yshift=10pt, }, ylabel=\text{proportion}, xticklabel style={ %xshift=10pt, fill=white }, xlabel=\text{Number of accidents per week}, ylabel near ticks, xlabel near ticks %ylabel style={rotate=-90} ] %\node[below] at (axis cs:-1.5,0) {$O$}; %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:30,35) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:15,20) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:25,20) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:12,10) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:25,22) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:32,40) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:50,30) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:45,40) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:60,50) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:20,15) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:15,10) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:19,20) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:25,20) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:45,40) circle (3pt); %\draw[fill=black](axis cs:50,45) circle (3pt); % \draw[thick,fill=gray,opacity=0.5] (axis cs: 0-0.2,0) rectangle (axis cs: 0+0.2,0.45); \draw[thick,fill=gray,opacity=0.5] (axis cs: 1-0.2,0) rectangle (axis cs: 1+0.2,0.3); \draw[thick,fill=gray,opacity=0.5] (axis cs: 2-0.2,0) rectangle (axis cs: 2+0.2,0.15); \draw[thick,fill=gray,opacity=0.5] (axis cs: 3-0.2,0) rectangle (axis cs: 3+0.2,0.1); \end{axis} \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} The following graph is what I am trying to replicate: Thank you in advance.

Goal: I am trying to find a way to write an equation for: However, I fail, or at least so far could not find a way, to add the last layer in the bottom for "magnetic flux" using \underbrace. Here is what I have so far, $$ \overbrace{ \underbrace{S^1_A \times S^1_B}_{E} \times \underbrace{S^1_C \times \mathbb{R}}_{\mathbb{CP}^{N-1}} }^{\text{ABCDEFG}} $$ and my output is this: Could you find a better way to do it? Effectively, how to do "Underbrace" under two "Underbraces"? Or maybe we can also try to use TikZ instead? (i.e. I don't mind to try other methods) p.s. Another thing is that, in my case, the size of ABCDEFG is smaller than the S^1_A \times S^1_B \times S^1_C \times \mathbb{R} — is there a way to adjust the size of ABCDEFG and others? Thank you for your help!!!

Is there any way to reproduce the picture below with tikz? I am relatively unfamiliar with tikz and failed to reproduce anything that looks at least partly like the following representation. This is were I've got until now: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{hobby} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[use Hobby shortcut,closed=true] \draw (-3.5,0.5) .. (-3,2.5) .. (-1,3.5).. (1.5,3).. (4,3.5); \draw (-1,1.5) ellipse (57pt and 33pt); \draw [fill=black] (-0.5,1.5) circle (1.5pt); \draw[color=black] (-0.5,1.2) node {$f$}; \draw [fill=gray] (0,1.2) circle (1.5pt); \draw[color=gray] (0,0.9) node {$h_1$}; \draw [fill=gray] (-1.2,2) circle (1.5pt); \draw[color=gray] (-1.2,2.3) node {$h_2$}; \draw [fill=gray] (-1,1.35) circle (1.5pt); \draw[color=gray] (-1.3,1.35) node {$h_3$}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} The two most challenging tasks are to reproduce this irregular shape in the same form and to draw these irregular arrows.

By adapting the codes in an answer to the question How to draw these (closed contours) diagrams using TikZ or PSTricks?, I get the following picture. Would anybody help me to make the following improvement? How can I have arrows in the line segment (-R,0) and also the smaller arc? (And only one arrow in the bigger arc.) How can I make the sizes of 1-\epsilon, 1+\epsilon smaller? \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{decorations.markings} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[decoration={markings, mark=at position 0.5cm with {\arrow[line width=1pt]{>}}, mark=at position 2cm with {\arrow[line width=1pt]{>}}, mark=at position 7.85cm with {\arrow[line width=1pt]{>}}, mark=at position 9cm with {\arrow[line width=1pt]{>}} } ] % The axes \draw[help lines,->] (-4,0) -- (4,0) coordinate (xaxis); \draw[help lines,->] (0,-1) -- (0,4) coordinate (yaxis); \node at (0,2) {$\times$}; \node at (-.5,2) {$2i$}; \node at (1,0) {$\times$}; % The path %\path[draw,line width=0.8pt,postaction=decorate] (1,0) node[below] {$\epsilon$} -- (2,0) node[below] {$r$} arc (0:180:2) -- (-1,0) arc (180:0:1); \path[draw,line width=0.8pt,postaction=decorate] (1.5,0) node[below] {$1+\epsilon$} -- (3,0) node[below] {$R$} arc (0:180:3) node[below] {$-R$} -- (.5,0) node[below]{$1-\epsilon$} arc (180:0:.5); % The labels \node[below] at (xaxis) {$x$}; \node[left] at (yaxis) {$y$}; \node[below left] {$O$}; \node at (1,.8) {$C_{\varepsilon}$}; \node at (2,3) {$\Gamma_{R}$}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{document}

So I just started using LateX yesterday and ran into a problem. I'm making a table where a number is circled and the whole row is crossed out. I found different codes on the internet and tried applying them to the table. Here's the code: \documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article} \usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,amsthm, amsfonts} \usepackage{tikz-inet} \usepackage{graphicx} \usetikzlibrary{matrix} \usepackage{tikz} Command to make circle: \usetikzlibrary{fit,shapes.geometric} \newcounter{nodemarkers} \newcommand\circletext[1]{% \tikz[overlay,remember picture] \node (marker-\arabic{nodemarkers}-a) at (0,1.5ex) {};% #1% \tikz[overlay,remember picture] \node (marker-\arabic{nodemarkers}-b) at (0,0){};% \tikz[overlay,remember picture,inner sep=2pt] \node[draw,ellipse,fit=(marker-\arabic{nodemarkers}-a.center) (marker-\arabic{nodemarkers}-b.center)] {};% \stepcounter{nodemarkers}% } Command to make lines in the table: \newcommand{\tikzmark}[2]{\tikz[overlay,remember picture,baseline] \node [anchor=base] (#1) {$#2$};} \newcommand{\DrawVLine}[3][]{% \begin{tikzpicture}[overlay,remember picture] \draw[shorten <=0.3ex, #1] (#2.north) -- (#3.south); \end{tikzpicture} } \newcommand{\DrawHLine}[3][]{% \begin{tikzpicture}[overlay,remember picture] \draw[shorten <=0.2em, #1] (#2.west) -- (#3.east); \end{tikzpicture} } The table: \begin{document} \begin{center} \renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.3} \begin{tabular}{c|cccc} \multicolumn {1}{c|}{} & 60 & 110 & 80 & 110 \\ \hline 80 & \tikzmark{topA}{3} & \tikzmark{topB}{10} & \tikzmark{topC}{20} & \tikzmark{topD}{ \circletext{0} } \\ 20 & 2 & 1 & 3 & \tikzmark{rightB}{0} \\ 50 & 2,5 & 3,5 & 4 & \tikzmark{rightC}{0} \\ 210 & 4 & 5 & 9 & \tikzmark{rightD}{0} \\ \DrawVLine[blue, thick, opacity=0.8]{topD}{rightD} \end{tabular} \end{center} \end{document} As you can see the vertical line is too long. Can anyone tell me where the code went wrong? If I try to remove \DrawVLine[blue, thick, opacity=0.8]{topD}{rightD} it looks fine though.

Sorry, I have no code to submit, mostly because I have no idea how to do this. I want to type up my homework (I can do the homework by hand) and I am looking for a simple method that I can use repetitively on different equations; without having to code each equation; to make/produce/draw the slope field of that equation. Currently, I have typed up the rest of my homework with latex, but have no good example from the internet to follow. I want to put the slope fields for both $\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x}=2x$ and $\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x}=x\sqrt{x}$ into my homework. My system is Fedora 19. Any suggestions? ps. sorry if this is a poor quality question. I just used the suggested tags.
