Using tabto on a line that contains displaystyle math causes the math expression to overlap with the text above it. Expected behavior at the top (what happens when I don't use tabto on the second line) VS what actually happens when I use tabto Here's a MWE : \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tabto} \begin{document} Text with a sum under it The sum :$\displaystyle\sum_{i=0}^{n}i$ Text that gets overlapped The sum :\tabto{\CurrentLineWidth} $\displaystyle\sum_{i=0}^{n}i$ \end{document} I'm doing calculations later on with the value tabto gives me, so I can't just get rid of it. Is there either another package that can give the current line width that isn't tabto and doesn't cause the same issues a way to force it to respect the actual line height Other people had similar issues with the package but the solutions proposed don't seem to work in that case. Edit: Here's what my actual document looks like. The tabto is here to calculate the max width of the following varwidth. \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tabto} \usepackage{varwidth, calc} \begin{document} Some text some text some text some text some text some text. Some more text on a new paragraph \tabto{\CurrentLineWidth}\begin{varwidth}[t]{\linewidth-\TabPrevPos} $\displaystyle\sum_{i=0}^{n}i$ Here is a longer paragraph that I want to be in a box. The tabto at the beginning helps me calculate the width of that box. \end{varwidth} \end{document}

I'm having trouble getting my desired figures padded when the number gets rounded. I don't want to use round-mode=places since I have differing amounts of leading 0s. Here's an example: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{siunitx} \sisetup{ round-mode = figures, round-precision = 3, round-pad = true } \begin{document} \num{0.7603} % 0.760: expected behaviour \num{0.9095} % 0.91: missing trailing 0 \end{document}

I am aware of the "randomizequestions" setting of mcexam, which I would like to use. However, the plan is to ask questions about different fields. Therefore, I would like to randomize the order of questions of each field, but not shuffle questions of different fields together. Below is a MWE. The questions should be consecutively numbered (1,2,3,4 in the MWE). My actual application of course has more than two questions in each block, and also more than two blocks. Could someone please suggest a method for this? PS: I have tried defining two different mcquestions environments, but the second block starts its numbering from 1 again, which is not desired. I tried hacking the mcexam.sty (by trying to adapt Fix first (two) questions with McExam package), but was unsuccessful due to my insufficient LaTeX knowledge. \documentclass[a4paper]{article} \usepackage[ numberofversions=1, seed=11, randomizequestions=true, randomizeanswers=true, writeRfile=false, ]{mcexam} \mcexamoptions{output=exam} \begin{document} \begin{mcquestions} % First block of questions (1-2, random order) \question How much is $2+2$? \question How much is $3+1$? % \end{mcquestions} % -> ending the environment here and opening a new one after achieves the separation, but the question numbering starts from 1 again % \begin{mcquestions} % -> see above % Second block of questions (3-4, random order) \question Is John Doe alive? \question Is Jane Doe alive? \end{mcquestions} \end{document}

I have the following chemical equation in Chemfigs: \documentclass[border=1mm]{standalone} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[french]{babel} \usepackage{chemfig} \usepackage{chemmacros} \begin{document} \setchemfig{scheme debug=true} \schemestart \chemfig{*6(--=---)} \arrow{->[\ch{Br2}]} \chemname{\chemfig{*6(--(<Br)-(<:Br)---)}}{trans-1,2-dibromo\\cyclohexane} \schemestop \end{document} The problem is that vertical alignment is not correct between cyclohexene and dibromocyclohexane. I tried the trick to add\arrow{0}[,0] but it does not work. How to properly replace cycles vertically like this ?

I am using the tabularray package to create a table with multi-column headers. The table has three groups of columns (2–4, 5–6, and 7–9), each with its own sub-header. I am using \cmidrule to draw horizontal lines under each group, as shown in the MWE and Figure below. However, there are small white gaps between the \cmidrule segments (where the rules do not meet). These gaps appear as white lines against the colored background of the header cells, which looks visually distracting. MWE: \documentclass{article} \usepackage[margin=2.5cm]{geometry} \usepackage{booktabs} % for \cmidrule \usepackage{xcolor} % for colors \RequirePackage{tabularray} \UseTblrLibrary{siunitx} \UseTblrLibrary{booktabs} \NineColors{saturation=low} \begin{document} \begin{table}[t!h] \centering\vspace{-1pc} \caption{Major elements (wt.\%) of minerals in the studied rocks (Layer~1/1: analcime, Layer~1/2: smectite, Layer~1/3: Ca-Na zeolite).

I need to generate a batch of reports. Each report gives the pass/fail results of a series of labs, with data taken from a text file. Here is a minimal (almost) working example: \documentclass{letter} \begin{document} \newcommand{\lab}[7]{ \begin{letter}{} \signature{Lab director} \opening{Dear #1,} Here are the result of your lab report: \begin{tabular}{ll} {#2}: & {#3} \\ {#4}: & {#5} \\ {#6}: & {#7} \end{tabular} \closing{Sincerely yours,} \pagebreak \end{letter}} \input{mwe_list.tex} \end{document} and here's the data file ("mwe_list.tex"): % Format of the data file: % % \lab{the name of the place} % {name of lab #1} % {pass/fail} % {name of lab #2} % {pass/fail} % {name of lab #3} % {pass/fail} % % NOTE: The number of labs is fixed, but the labs for different people could be % different, and some people attempted fewer than three labs \lab{Alice} {heat fusion} {pass} {energy content} {pass} {acid dissociation} {pass} \lab{Bob} {energy content} {pass} {} {} {} {} As this example shows, some reports have fewer than 3 items. Question: How should I modify the tex code so it only prints the name of lab + results that's carried out? I have in mind something like "if {#3} is not {} then print {#3:}: {#4}", but I don't know how to do that in latex, and I don't know how to combine that with e.g. tabular. I do realize that my MWE is hacky, so I welcome suggestions on how to do this properly. Thanks!

With Marjin's hack, I borrowed egreg's code with picture mode to replicate the following symbol: which comes from the following context: Edit Thanks to jlab's suggestions, I have corrected my silly mistake. % https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/765922 % https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/766094 \documentclass{article} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{etoolbox} \usepackage[pstarrows]{curve2e} % a general purpose macro https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/480801/4427 \newcommand{\xmathpalette}[2]{\mathchoice {#1\displaystyle\textfont{#2}}% {#1\textstyle\textfont{#2}}% {#1\scriptstyle\scriptfont{#2}}% {#1\scriptscriptstyle\scriptscriptfont{#2}}% } \let\origoplus\oplus % https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/766094/322482 \def\arrowshift{0} \makeatletter \patchcmd{\@VArc}{\vector(\@xnum,\@ynum){0}}{\vector(\@xnum,\@ynum){\arrowshift}}{}{} \newdimen\oplusarc@dim \newcommand{\oplusarc}{% \mathbin{% \mkern0.5mu \xmathpalette\newoplusarc@\origoplus \mkern0.5mu }% } \newcommand{\newoplusarc@}[3]{% \begingroup \sbox\z@{$#1\m@th#3$}% \oplusarc@dim=\dimeval{\ht\z@+\dp\z@}% \unitlength=0.065\oplusarc@dim% \def\pIIe@CAW{0.1\oplusarc@dim}% \vcenter{\hbox{% \begin{picture}(7,18)(0,-9)% \def\arrowshift{2}% \linethickness{0.7\fontdimen8#2 3}% \VectorArc(0,0)(45:7){260}%{270} % \Line(-3,0)(3,0)% \Line(0,-3)(0,3)% \end{picture}% }}% \endgroup } \makeatother \begin{document} $\origoplus \oplusarc$ $\scriptstyle\origoplus \oplusarc$ $\scriptscriptstyle\origoplus \oplusarc$ \fboxsep=0pt \fboxrule=0.1pt \fbox{$\origoplus$} \fbox{$\oplusarc$} $A \oplus B$, \quad $X_{i \oplusarc j}$ $A \oplusarc B$, \quad $X_{i \oplusarc j}$ \end{document} But the result was not so ideal, with not so consistent size and baseline with oplus(?), thus, I was still want to ask whether any suggestions on my code;-), Why I use curve2e instead of tikz, is that I want a less-dependent (and maybe faster) solution here...

I am using utf8 inputenc, T1 fontenc and lmodern as the font to create a presentation with LaTeX Beamer. However, this combination results in math accents (like tilde and hat) which are not correctly aligned above the italicized letters (variable names) in math mode. A MWE can be found below. When I remove lmodern from the loaded packages then the accents are aligned correctly, but the font itself looks very strange/rough/unpolished, which does not look satisfactory to me.

I've no clue how to solve this. Although the question should be nearly self explanatory, here's some pseudo code that could be helpful, too: if(\printbibliography will produce output) { insert pagebreak in the document (not in bibliography) } The if-condition is the problem, I would like to get some hints for or even solved. Here's an MWE for experimentation: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{biblatex} \usepackage{filecontents} \begin{filecontents}{general.bib} @misc{A01, author = {Author, A.}, year = {2001}, title = {Alpha}, } @misc{B02, author = {Buthor, B.}, year = {2002}, title = {Bravo}, } \end{filecontents} \addbibresource{general.bib} \begin{document} %As Buthor said in \cite{B02}: \IfFileExists{\jobname.bbl}% {\textbackslash printbibliography expected to produce output}% {\textbackslash printbibliography not expected to produce output} \printbibliography \end{document}

Whenever I use the \newtheorem command but select an environment name (first argument) distinct from the alias which appears in the text (typically third argument), cleveref fails to display the name of the reference correctly. According to section 8 of the cleveref manual, If cleveref encounters a cross-reference to a type it does not know, it will produce a "reference type undefined" warning, ?? \ref{<label>}... so that must be what's happening, but I don't know why. I can already see a few fixes for this: make aliases consistent with environment names, or separately provide label names to cleveref with the other commands the package provides. However, I have not encountered this problem before now; I want to know if something changed that broke cleveref, and if so whether there is a more convenient adaptation I can make to fix it. MWE: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{amsthm} \usepackage{cleveref} \newtheorem{thm}{Theorem}[section] \newtheorem{lemma}[thm]{Lemma} \newtheorem{prop}[thm]{Proposition} \begin{document} \begin{lemma} \label{lem:1} This is a lemma. \end{lemma} \begin{prop} \label{prop:2} This is a proposition. \end{prop} I can reference \Cref{lem:1} but not \Cref{prop:2}? \end{document} Output: I am using the current version of Overleaf.

My main idea is to define a macro, \trans such that if called twice, the second calling has a delimiter with it. This is more general and not only about transposes. The question then is What code can make a macro behave this way?. For example, I usually use \NewDocumentCommand{\trans}{+m}{{#1}^{\bm t}} But then \trans{\trans{\mathbf{A}}} produces Instead of the desired Another example: Say I want to define \dual such that if in the parameter there is another \dual then applies parenthesis. Say \NewDocumentCommand{\dual}{+m}{{{#1}^\ast}}} Then I would like to modify \dual so that \dual{V + \dual{\Omega}} produces Instead of the actual render of Another extension: Such that if inside braces it is detected a binary operator then it applies parenthesis, in this way \dual{V+W} should produce I have checked How a program a command which counts the delimiter within itself and alternates brackets accordingly?, it would solve the problem about checking if there is another instance of the command in the parameter but I'm still curious about checking if there is a binary operator, and if possible integrating both features in a single command.

I wanted to use \sisetup{uncertainty-descriptors = ....} in my lab protocol, specifically, I wanted to display a number only with a systematic error, so I tried \num[uncertainty-descriptors = {sys}]{1.2(3)} but that doesn't print (sys). So I tried, if siunitx neglects one error if its zero (because 0 in a single error number \num{1.2(0)} is neglected). But if one of those errors is 0 - ´\num{1.2(3)(0)}´, then siunitx gets stuck in an endless compiling process. As the documentation shows, the standard works: If \num[uncertainty-descriptors = {sys,stat}]{1.2(3)(4)} receives both errors, it prints just fine. Why does siunitx crash, did I miss something in sisetup? The quick alternative would be to display it manually as seen below. There's a MWE below: (you need to clear auxiliary files when testing the crashes yourself) \documentclass{article} \usepackage{siunitx} \sisetup{ separate-uncertainty=true, uncertainty-descriptor-mode = subscript } \begin{document} \[\num{1.2(3)(4)}\] % works \[\num{1.2(0)}\] % works % \[\num{1.2(3)(0)}\] % crashes \[\num[uncertainty-descriptors = {sys}]{1.2(3)}\] % doesn't print (sys) % \[\num[uncertainty-descriptors = {sys,stat}]{1.00(2)(0)}\] % crashes \[\num[uncertainty-descriptors = {sys,stat}]{1.2(3)(4)}\] % default, both errors given % manual alternative \[1.2\pm0.3_{\text{sys}}\] \end{document}

Supposingly, the reason is that the line with the text "In order to ... formulas." is already very full. If I remove the word "formulas", the additional vertical space does not appear. But should TeX behave like this? Edit: The behaviour changes, if I remove \usepackage{hyperref} or \usepackage{thmtools}.

This question is related to an interesting question on mathSE. The blue curve $E$ is the ellipse $\left(\frac{4x}{\pi}\right)^2+\left(\frac{y}{\ln\left(\sqrt2+1\right)}\right)^2=1$ and the red curve $L$ is $y^2=\ln^2\left(\sqrt2\cos x-\sqrt{\cos(2x)}\right)$ are almost identical in shapes. So far several answers show that they are different (some 1/10000) but almost identical (it's still open for that exact value/measure of how different they are). Naturally we want to see the difference. The question is to draw/visualize/simulate how different they are. It's interesting in mathematics but challenging in drawing due to very small diffrences. I can draw them (the code below is a MWE); the below left is E over thicker L, the below right is L over a thicker E; however we can not see the difference. Any tools (tikz, pgfplot, asymptote, luadraw, julia, ...) are allowed (standalone can be integrated into LaTeX/beamer). I just think of f(x)-g(x), f(x)/g(x), ... then scale by 10000 in graph, but not yet clear and complete.

I am trying to recreate an educational chemistry diagram illustrating the dilution of a solution using pure TikZ. Here is the target image I want to emulate (specifically the realistic, glossy 3D look of the glassware and liquid): I have made an initial attempt at drawing the volumetric flask and adding some basic gradients to simulate a 3D effect and control the water level. Here is my current Minimal Working Example (MWE), which is stripped of all custom fonts and language packages, along with a screenshot of my current output: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[x=1cm, y=1cm] % Water level control \def\waterlevel{-0.5} % Main flask path \def\flaskpath{ (0,-2.115) .. controls (1.85,-2.0) and (0.2,-0.45) ..

I'm currently a freshman taking Math program. I don't have any much to do so I want to learn LaTeX. Yet when I try to align this in the center, it looks like this: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{amsmath} \begin{document} \begin{align*} u &= x^2-4 & v &= -2e^{-x/2} \\ du &= 2x & dv &= e^{-x/2} \end{align*} \end{document} I don't now how to compile this here, but here's the picture I want to align the it in the first letter, which is in d, and I want to tighter the space of it. How can I do it?

my main problem that I'm looking forward to solving and understanding is the following: With the graphicx package we have the \scalebox{}[]{} macro. I don't quite know the most technical parts but I do know about tokenization of TeX code and category codes but the thing is that if I try to use calc in order to use the \ratio macro to produce a dynamical scaling of the expresion I get an error. A snippet of my code (example +packages loaded) would be \documentclass{article} \usepackage{etoolbox} \usepackage{mathtools} \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage{cancel} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{xparse} \usepackage{ifthen} \usepackage{calc} \usepackage{intcalc} \usepackage{forloop} \usepackage{nicematrix} \usepackage{xfp} \NewDocumentCommand{\set}{+m}{\ifblank{#1}{\varnothing}{ \scalebox{1}[\ratio{\heightof{#1}}{\heightof{X}}]{ \raisebox{0.04em}{\{} } #1 \scalebox{1}[\ratio{\heightof{#1}}{\heightof{X}}]{ \raisebox{0.04em}{\} } }}} \begin{document} %induces error %$\set{}$ %$\br{X}$ \renewcommand{\set}{\ifblank{#1}{\varnothing}{ \scalebox{1}[1.15]{ \raisebox{0.04em}{\{} } #1 \scalebox{1}[1.15]{ \raisebox{0.04em}{\}} $\set{}$ %produces \varnothing $\set{a,B}$ %produces {a,B} with adjusted height of braces \renewcommand{\br}[1]{\raisebox{0.1em}{[} #1 \raisebox{0.1em}{]} $\mathds R\br{X}$ %produces set of polinomials with coeficients in R and variable X with adjusted braces \end{document} I have tried using 1*\ratio... and expl3 but those also gives errors. These are the error messages I see I also know about mathtools and \DeclareMathDelimiterX but I also want code that handles translating of the expresion, like in \newcommand{\br}[1]{\raisebox{0.1em}{[} {#1} \raisebox{0.1em}{]}} Which, for what I know isn't possible with it. I hope you know how to solve this and can help me. What I want is that it scales with respect to the height of X for reference. Edit2: So for more added context, I also defined a macro for an adjusted integral (I'm a bit picky with symbols hahaha) and I would also (just to be sure) that it can scale by that much. \NewDocumentCommand{\integral}{+O{} +O{} +m +m +O{}}{\ifthenelse{\equal{#5}{partial}}{ \mathchoice{ \scalebox{1.1}[1.25]{$\displaystyle \int_{{#1}}^{{#2}}$}\kern0.25em{ \scalebox{1}{$\displaystyle {#3} \, \partial{}{#4}$}} }{ \scalebox{1}[1.1363]{$\int_{{#1}}^{{#2}}$} \kern0.1em \scalebox{0.8}{${#3} \, \partial{}{#4}$} }{ \scalebox{0.6}[0.68]{$\int_{{#1}}^{{#2}}$} \kern0.1em \scalebox{0.5}{$ {#3} \, \partial{}{#4}$} }{ \scalebox{0.55}[0.57]{$\int_{{#1}}^{{#2}}$} \kern0.1em \scalebox{0.4}{$ {#3} \, \partial{}{#4}$}} }{ \mathchoice{ \scalebox{1.1}[1.25]{$\displaystyle \int_{{#1}}^{{#2}}$} \kern0.25em{ \scalebox{1}{$\displaystyle {#3} \, \diff{}{#4}$}} }{ \scalebox{1}[1.1363]{$\int_{{#1}}^{{#2}}$} \kern0.1em \scalebox{0.8}{${#3} \, \diff{}{#4}$} }{ \scalebox{0.6}[0.68]{$\int_{{#1}}^{{#2}}$} \kern0.1em \scalebox{0.5}{$ {#3} \, \diff{}{#4}$} }{ \scalebox{0.5}[0.57]{$\int_{{#1}}^{{#2}}$} \kern0.1em \scalebox{0.4}{$ {#3} \, \diff{}{#4}$}} } } This is the largest symbol I have adjusted for personal use.

When I remove transform shape everything works fine. Does anybody know how to make tkz-euclide draw the correct circle in combination with transform shape?

In the process I used minipage, but the items are not horizontal aligned, line by line. For instance, in the example, item 1 and 3 are not under the same horinzontal line.
