Consider the following example: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{lipsum} \usepackage{enumitem} \begin{document} \begin{description}[style=nextline] \item[First item] \lipsum[11] \item[Second item] \begin{itemize} \item first subitem \item second subitem \end{itemize} \end{description} \end{document} Why itemize list in above example doesn't start in new line as other normal text do? Is this a bug? Well, I can manage this behaviour by adding \mbox{} after description label.

This is an extension of Replacing a Circle of Asterisks with Tikz Colored Stars Consider the code: \documentclass{book} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{shapes.geometric} \definecolor{thisblue}{RGB}{10,49,97} %\definecolor{thisred}{RGB}{179,25,66} \begin{document} \thispagestyle{empty} \pagecolor{thisblue} \noindent {\LARGE\bfseries{\textcolor{white}{Twelve even-spaced stars:}}} \vspace{10pt} \begin{center} \begin{tikzpicture} \foreach \k in {0,30,...,330} \node[ shape=star, star points=5, star point ratio=2.5, minimum size=0.8cm, fill=white, draw=white ] at (\k:3.5cm) {}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{center} \vspace{40pt} \noindent {\LARGE\bfseries{\textcolor{white}{Supposed to be thirteen even-spaced stars:}}} \vspace{10pt} \begin{center} \begin{tikzpicture} \foreach \k in {0,27.69,55.38,...,332.28} \node[ shape=star, star points=5, star point ratio=2.5, minimum size=0.8cm, fill=white, draw=white ] at (\k:3.5cm) {}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{center} \end{document} which produces: The first problem (regarding the second set of stars) is that there are only twelve stars (not thirteen).

I am preparing some physics exercises about pressure, and I would like to illustrate a rectangular box that can be placed on each of its three different faces. In this way, the same box would have three different base areas, while its dimensions remain unchanged. For example, my box has dimensions: 23 cm, 24 cm, 46 cm I would like to create the three possible orientations of the box with TikZ, so that in each drawing a different face is touching the ground. At the moment, I have this code for one orientation: \documentclass{article} \usepackage[margin=0.5in]{geometry} \usepackage{tikz} \begin{document} \begin{center} \begin{tikzpicture}[x=0.027cm,y=-0.027cm,line width=0.35pt,draw=black!75] \draw (77,123)--(77,199)--(146,231)--(281,163)--(281,110); \draw (146,156)--(146,231); \draw (212,55)--(212,122); \draw (77,123)--(60,84)--(126,117)--(146,156)--cycle; \draw (77,123)--(51,96)--(186,27)--(212,55)--(109,109); \draw (212,55)--(232,16)--(301,48)--(281,87)--cycle; \draw (146,156)--(281,87)--(319,91)--(184,160)--cycle; \draw[<->] (66,126)--(66,198); \draw[<->] (72,210)--(141,242); \draw[<->] (151,242)--(286,173); \node[rotate=-90,inner sep=0pt,font=\small] at (57,160) {23 cm}; \node[rotate=-25,inner sep=0pt,font=\small] at (101,233) {24 cm}; \node[rotate=27,inner sep=0pt,font=\small] at (227,213) {46 cm}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{center} \end{document} Is there a relatively simple way to modify this code (or to define a reusable TikZ command) so that I can obtain the other two orientations of the same box, with the 23 cm, 24 cm, and 46 cm dimensions exchanged accordingly? Ideally, I would like to be able to write something like \boxorientation{23}{24}{46} and obtain the corresponding drawing, or otherwise have a convenient way to generate the three possible orientations. The purpose is to use the drawings in physics exercises about pressure, where the students have to calculate the pressure exerted by the box when it rests on each of its three possible bases.

In their 1962 paper "The Braid Groups," Fox and Neuwirth use a notation similar to \veebar to describe one point being directly on top of another in the plane, as shown below. I was wondering what the best way to reproduce this in LaTeX would be. One option would be \stackrel\vee=, but it doesn't have quite the right spacing. (I wonder how they did it. Obviously this predates LaTeX, but I don't know enough about the way mathematics papers were typeset in the 60s. By the way, the terms "abscissa and ordinate" refer to the x- and y-coordinate respectively.)

First, consider the code which produces the colored star: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{shapes.geometric} \begin{document} \begin{center} \begin{tikzpicture} \node[ shape=star, star points=5, star point ratio=2.5, minimum size=0.8cm, fill=red, draw=red ] {}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{center} \end{document} which produces: Now, consider the code which produces the tikz circle of asterisks: \documentclass{book} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{shapes.geometric} % Required for the star shape \usetikzlibrary{calc} \definecolor{oldgloryblue}{RGB}{10,49,97} \begin{document} \thispagestyle{empty} \begin{center} \begin{tikzpicture} \foreach \k in {0,30,...,360} \node at ($(0,0)+(\k:2)$){*}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{center} \end{document} and which produces However, when I replace the asterisk by `shape=star, star points=5, star point ratio=2.5, minimum size=0.8cm, fill=red, draw=red` I encounter many problems. QUESTION: How may I produce the circular image of `red stars' instead of the circular images of asterisks? Thank you.

I use the tasks environment from the tasks package to make exercises and solutions. If the solutions are long, there is a lot of free space since it seems that individual \tasks do not allow page breaks inside of them. Instead. the \task will start on the next page. I could just use the enumerate environment for these solutions, but some solutions are rather short, so I use the task envornment for these, to have multiple tasks side by side, going from left to right and not from top to bottom first. To have my code consistent, I would like to have the longer solutions in the task environment also. Can \tasks somehow be set up such that they can span over multiple pages? MWE: \documentclass{scrartcl} \usepackage{tasks} \usepackage{lipsum} \begin{document} \begin{tasks} \task \lipsum[1-2] \task \lipsum[1-3] \end{tasks} \end{document}

I'm trying to arrange a collection of nodes using \graph, which will be used to define a series of spath3 knot strands. However, the default cartesian placement strategy doesn't work very well for my purposes, as node chains that I intend to "tee off" from other nodes are placed at a constant width. It's possible to get what I want with the following code, but it's obviously rather fragile: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{graphs} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture} \graph[nodes={draw, as={}}]{ a -> b -> c, {[placement/width=1, placement/depth=1, grow down] b -> d -> f -> g}, {[placement/width=2, placement/depth=2, grow right] f -> p}, }; \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} How can I achieve the same effect by specifying the node rather than the width and depth?

There is a highly popular post from 2014 showcasing Nice scientific pictures show off but a lot has changed with LaTeX over the last 12 years. What is your best science picture to show off now that wasn't possible 12 years ago? Constraints for each answer: The Picture & Code: Show off a beautiful scientific illustration that utilizes features, packages, or engine capabilities (e.g., LuaLaTeX memory handling, modern pgfplots limits, Luametafun) that remove barriers which routinely stopped typical users from doing this 12 years ago (such as hard memory crashes, lack of default ecosystem support, or prohibitive manual workarounds). The Evolution: You must explicitly explain what technological progress or package developmentover the last decade made this picture possible today. AI usage is allowed, but must be acknowledged per community guidelines.

I want to add some tagged section headings within frames with ltx-talk. It seems like using the exisiting section templates would be a neat way of doing this. But I am having trouble getting the section tagging structure to close correctly at the end of the frame. I can't find a way to inject sockets to close things without redefining internal ltx-talk macros. And so far, I haven't closed things correctly in all situations even if I do redefine. This seems to work in most cases I try, but seems risky: \cs_set_protected:Npn \__talk_frame_process:nn #1#2 { \__talk_decode_parse:n {#1} \bool_if:NT \l__talk_decode_mode_bool { \__talk_frame_process_aux:nn {#1} { #2 \par \UseTaggingSocket{sec/end}{6} \UseTaggingSocket{sec/end}{5} } } } What is a good way of doing this?

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)=\{1,2,\dots,n\}$ and edge set $E(G)=\{e_1, e_2,\dots,e_m\}$. We use the notation $i\sim j$ to mean that the vertices $i$ and $j$ are adjacent. The\textbf{\textit{ adjacency matrix}} of $G$, denoted by $A(G)$, is defined as $A(G)=[a_{ij}]_{n\times n}$, where \\ \\ \indent \indent \indent \indent \indent \indent \indent \indent \indent \indent $a_{ij}=\begin{cases} 1, & \text{if } i \sim j\\ 0, & \text{otherwise.} \end{cases}$ \\ \\ The \textit{\textbf{Laplacian matrix}} of $G$, denoted by $L(G)$, is defined as $L(G) := D(G)-A(G)$, where $D(G)$ is the diagonal matrix with degrees of the vertices of $G$ as diagonal entries. It is well-known that $L(G)$ is symmetric and positive semidefiniite and rank of $L(G)$ is $n-k$ where $k=k(G)$ is the number of connected components in $G$. Since $L(G)$ is symmetric and positive semidefinite so all the eigenvalues of $L(G)$ are real and non-negative. Moreover, $0$ is the smallest eigenvalue of $L(G)$ as for $v=(1 \ \ 1\ \dots \ 1)^T \in \R^n$, \ \ $L(G)v=0v$. \par Suppose that $0=\lambda_1\leq \lambda_2 \leq \cdots$ \section{Preliminaries} \section{Work done} Maximum 03 pages \section{Further study} Maximum 01 page \begin{thebibliography}{33} \bibitem{F1} Castelaz, A.~Commutivity degree of finite groups.~Thesis,~Department of Mathematics,~ Wake Forest University,~North Carolina,~5-8, 2010. \bibitem{C1} Cerf, V.,~Fernandez, E.,~Gostelow, K.,~and~Volausky, S.~ Formal control and low properties of a model of computation.

I would like to use forloop (or multido or another alternative if suggested) so that I can generate a series of short coding quizzes where each quiz uses verbatim (or fancyvrb or listings or another alternative). But when I try to do this: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{forloop} \newcounter{x} \begin{document} \forloop{x}{1}{\value{x} < 7}{% \begin{verbatim} def f(x): return x + 1 \end{verbatim} } \end{document} I get an error: File ended while scanning use of \@xverbatim The same basic problem has occurred when I have tried using multido rather than forloop; likewise fancyvrb or listings instead of verbatim.

Typically this can be achieved by something like \documentclass[handout]{beamer} \begin{document} \begin{frame} \begin{example} example text \end{example} \begin{solution}<2-|handout:0> solution text \end{solution} \end{frame} \end{document} However, adding handout:0 for every solution environment is tedious. Is there any automatic may?

I already know \left<opening operator> <content> \right<closing operator> automatically scales up the operators to adapt to the <content> size. I have the opposite problem: I want to scale a set of parentheses down, specifically in a superscript. Take the symbol below in (1) which I use to refer to a specific curve in my paper. I sometimes want to take the first derivative of it, which needs a \prime in superscript, leading to (2). % (1) The regular curve symbol. \NewDocumentCommand{\curve}{m}{% \phi_{\vphantom{m}\smash{f}}^{\text{\upshape gen}}% \IfBlankF{#1}{(#1)} }% % (2) Its derivative \NewDocumentCommand{\curvederivative}{m}{% \phi_{\vphantom{m}\smash{f}}^{\text{\upshape gen}\prime}% \IfBlankF{#1}{(#1)} }% However, these can easily be confused. I want to add parentheses around the \prime in order to make the difference stand out. The problem is the parentheses have a lot of height, but no depth (quite the change compared to the "gen" text, only having depth). This version also adds some height to the surrounding line in text mode... % (3) My attempt with parentheses... \NewDocumentCommand{\curvederivativeparen}{m}{% \phi_{\vphantom{m}\smash{f}}^{\text{\upshape gen}(\prime)}% \IfBlankF{#1}{(#1)} }% Is there an automatic way to scale the parentheses down to the size of the content (in that case, only the \prime symbol)? I know I can play around with \scalebox and \raisebox, but I don't want to fiddle with the lengths if the content changes...

I am trying to put a 12 times 12 matrix into one column of the IEEE conference format. But it turns out like this. How do I make this looks better and fit the 12*12 matrix into the left column?

The title says it all. What needs to be done, thus that \toprule, \midrule, and bottomrule (and maybe other rules from booktabs) in a tblr environment have the additional spacing again, as they have in a regular tabular environment?

I'm writing a lemma with italics font style where I need enumeration in lowercase Roman numerals. I tried different ways and the best I could do is to use the package enumerate like this: \usepackage{enumerate} \begin{document} \begin{lemma} For any graph G, \begin{enumerate}[(i)] \item L(G) is symmetric. \item L(G) is positive semidefinite. \item etc. \end{enumerate} \end{lemma} \end{document} But the problem I'm facing is the tilts of parentheses are more than that I like. Actually I want like this: Any help would be appreciated.

Suppose, I want to draw a 3D cylinder using TikZ’ 3D library. If I just want to draw the outline, it’s straightforward, as I can draw each line in a separate command: \documentclass[tikz]{standalone} \usetikzlibrary{3d} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[z={(0.5cm,0.2cm)}] \newcommand{\atan}{26.565} % the visually rightmost angle \newcommand{\radius}{2} \newcommand{\height}{3} % top \draw[canvas is xz plane at y=0] (\atan:\radius) arc(\atan:\atan-180:\radius) coordinate(top left); % left \draw (top left) -- ++(0,-\height); % bottom \draw[canvas is xz plane at y=-\height] (\atan-180:\radius) arc(\atan-180:\atan:\radius) coordinate(bottom right); % right \draw (bottom right) -- ++(0,\height); % back of top face \draw[canvas is xz plane at y=0,red] (\atan:\radius) arc(\atan:\atan+180:\radius); \end{tikzpicture} This gives me: Now, if I want to fill the faces of the cylinder, I cannot simply adapt the above as the planes are changing all the time. Changing coordinate systems mid-command as described here doesn’t work (or I am using it wrong). How can I do this? I prefer answers that are generalisable and where it is clear what the current coordinate system is at any point (like the above solution). For reference, the desired output is something like this:

I have the current situation where I handled a panel/composite figure with subfigure; I have adjusted sizes so that both images can be visible and occupy the entire page space. The problem is that when I add the caption it covers the page number... I wish for it to break at some point and continue to the next page. I have attempted to use \ContinuedFloat but this has the undesired effect of positionning each subfigure in an independent page. Is there a way to keep images in one page, possibly part of the caption, and having the rest naturally finishing on the following page? Thanks.

Today I tried to use biber (within TeXShop) and I got this error in the console: usage: lipo <input_file> <command> [<options> ...] command is one of: -create[_album] -info -detailed_info -thin <arch> -extract <arch> [-extract <arch> ...] -remove <arch> [-remove <arch> ...] -replace <arch> <file_name> [-replace <arch> <file_name> ...] -verify_arch <arch> ... -archs options are one or more of: -arch <arch> <input_file> -o <output_file> -segalign <arch> <alignment> /Library/TeX/texbin/biber: extracting arm64 binary with lipo failed (wstatus=256) All of the error makes no sense to me. But when I google that last line, it says that it "does not contain the arm64 architecture slice." I'm wondering if this is an error having to do with the upcoming updates in the OS (???). If anyone has a solution or even a description of what is going on, I'd appreciate the help.

I'm putting together a collection of poems I've written. The poems are already written separately in txt files, and I would like to import them directly into my LaTeX file. The reason I don't want to simply copy and paste them is that I want the ability to access and modify them directly, independently of the broader collection I'm writing, and for any modifications to then be reflected directly in the final LaTeX file. The issue I'm having is that if I just \input the files, the line breaks aren't respected. Is there any way to import the file in such a way that LaTeX understands that every new line in the txt file should represent a line break in the final PDF ?

A document compiled with lualatex used the "Source Sans Pro" font: \setsansfont{Source Sans Pro} However, the new version of the font distributed via TeXLive 2026 is "Source Sans 3". The document must therefore use: \setsansfont{Source Sans 3} However, this document is shared among several users. Some use TeXLive 2026, while others use TeXLive 2025 or even 2024. How to use the "Source Sans 3" font when available, and fall back to the "Source Sans Pro" font otherwise ?
