xypic yytree cannot connect node 11

Thanks, this solution works.

For future readers I'll note that this problem happens with all multiples of 11 (e.g. 22, 33, 44)

xypic yytree cannot connect node 11

Hi All,

I am trying to typeset a simple "directory tree" using the xytree package. When I attempt to connect to node 11, no connection is drawn and all subsequent connections (e.g. to node 12) also do not display.

MWE:


\documentclass{minimal}

\usepackage{xytree}

\begin{document}

\yytree ...

cropped ybar plot

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

I've found using enlarge x limits={abs=<value>} combined with specifying the width of the plot allows me to position the bars with more control and get a better result.

An explanation of how avoiding the symbolic coordinates and use numbers for the x ...

cropped ybar plot

Hi All,

The bar plot produced by the following code has two issues:
1) It is cropped at the extreme left and right edges
2) There is too much space between the two groups of bars.

\documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.17}

\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture ...

Bibliography: how can I define a new field?

I’m wondering how I can define a new bibtex field which will behave like the author or editor field. Specifically I want to add a “collector” field so that authors, editors and collectors of references which have the same name end up sorted correctly in the reference list.

So if I have one work ...

\hhline resets \rowcolors

Perfect!

And as far as I can see, this doesn’t introduce any unwanted space/gaps either.

\hhline resets \rowcolors

I’ve tried this, and indeed doubling \hhline does fix the row colouring issue, but it doubles the thickness of the line.

So we’re halfway there.

I should also note that exactly the same problem arises with \cline (though there are separate issues with \cline not rendering nicely with coloured ...

\hhline resets \rowcolors

Hello,

I've encountered a weird problem whereby use of \hhline causes \rowcolors to mess up. It is like the \hhline is itself treated as a row (which is then 'coloured')

So, if I have \rowcolors{1}{white}{gray} before a tabular, every second row should be grey. And this is indeed what happens ...

mathspec disables italics in Bibliohraphy

Thanks,

Yup, using TeX Live solves the issue! Yay!

Using TeX Live also resolves some warnings XeLatex was throwing up concerning xdvipdfmx. I'll post here so that people using MiKTeX who are googling around trying to resolve them (like I was a week or two ago...) can find this post and hopefully ...

mathspec disables italics in Bibliohraphy

Hello,

Currently the problem persists.

I uninstalled MiKTeX and downloaded the latest version (which was what I had anyway, but I re-downloaded) it and the problem persisted. I ran the update and I saw that fontspec had an update, but when I try to update it I get the following error message ...
