Math & Science ⇒ Connected Nodes in Matrices

[ghostanime2001]

How do you use \Rnode, \rnode, \rput etc... inside matrices? I want to be able to connect one element to another element in different rows or columns. Also I want to set different styles for those elements. How do I use node connections with matrices? I receive an error.

Hi,

i think you have to let latex create the matrix first, then "overpaint" with tikz nodes, something like Alain Matthes' example:

(therefore use tikz matrix environment)

I cannot use pstricks nodes ?

The provided code example works fine for me when compiled via LaTeX→DVI→PS→PDF. ✓

[ghostanime2001]

can you post the code ?

[cgnieder]

I think Thorsten means the code you posted. I tried it, too, and it worked for me as well, both compiled the way Thorsten mentioned and compilation vie XeLaTeX.

oh I see, I was compiling with pdflatex instead of xelatex. I re-compiled my code with xelatex and I produced the same result.
