Re: Parametric plot and infix postfix

Re: Parametric plot and infix postfix

I am currently using MacTeX. How do I install pst-infixplot for this distribution if I am able? If I am not able is there another way? Also, what is the syntax to plot a surface in parametricplotThreeD[ "what goes here"]? Thank you very much for your help.

Parametric plot and infix postfix

Greetings,

I have two questions. The book I am learning about PSTricks on is The LaTeX Graphics Companion 2nd ed. In it it has no documentation of how to use parametricplotThreeD to render a surface that is plotted with two independent variables. The curve option does not work as this clearly has ...

Re: Newbie needing powerdot

Thank you Juanjo. I will try this. I have a different shell prompt on my Mac but hopefully this will work when I find out what the shell prompt is.

Re: Newbie needing powerdot

It was TeXshop that I had the trouble changing the background color. Also I am very sorry about misspelling your screen name Juanjo.

Re: Newbie needing powerdot

Thank you both Stefan and Juango,

I downloaded MacTeX and if this has powerdot it should help greatly. It looks like a good LaTeX distribution. I have only one remaining question. How do I change the background in the text editor to white again? (I seem to have done something to make it a grey.) I ...

Newbie needing powerdot

Sorry for the weird heading,

I am a newbie using a IMac with Mac OSX Tiger and OzTeX. My question is: how do I acquire the powerdot class. Keep in mind I know very little about LaTeX except what I use on a daily basis. Any help is appreciated.
