Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ How to magnify (Zoom in the graph)

[Azzam]

Hi all,

I am a beginner in latex, and I would be grateful if someone can help me to do this issue. I am having a graph and I want to zoom in a specific part of it. I have seen many threads about this issue but I am confused about it.
Thanks in advance

Code: Select all

\documentclass[journal]{IEEEtran}
\usepackage{cite}
\usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}
\usepackage[caption=false,font=footnotesize]{subfig}
\usepackage{multirow}

\begin{document}
\begin{figure}[h]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=88 mm]{Figure6}
\caption{ Stability circles for different load points in area close to 50 ohm on a smith chart}
\label{Figure6:Stability circles for different load points in area close to 50 ohm on a smith chart}
\end{figure}%
\end{document}%

Hi Azzam,

welcome to the forum!

You can trim and clip the image, such as:

\includegraphics[width=88 mm,trim={8cm 14cm 8cm 6cm},clip]{Figure6}

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for your feedback, actually I want to magnify the specific plot inside the plot and not to trim it. Any idea? thanks in advance

[Stefan Kottwitz]

Then magnify by other options without clipping, such as

\includegraphics[width=12cm]{Figure6}

or

\includegraphics[scale=2]{Figure6}

Dear stefan,

Please bear my ignorance. I tried what you have mentioned. but what I want is similar to the attached file.

Sorry for any inconvenience

What you are looking for is inset picture in a picture. See if this link helps you.

Hi Mas,

Yeah, that's what I want to is to insert a graph(.pdf) as mentioned in the attached first post, then I wante to generate a large plot inside it, showing a zoom on a region of the large plot(.Png). I have inserted the code within this issue. Can you do me a favour and write down for me.Thank in advance

[Stefan Kottwitz]

Is the plot generated with LaTeX, such as by TikZ or pgfplots? Then it may be easy.
Extracting and magnifying and external plot (such as made by Mathematica or Matlab) is more difficult.

OOH, I see. That's mean I can not do it.!! Thanks for this clarification

Best regards

Perhaps we can help to generate the plot with native LaTeX. It will look better anyway. pgfplots is extremely capable (see pgfplots gallery).

What is your plot code?
