Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Tweaking some parts of a chart

[dasag]

Thank you veryyyyyyyyyyyyyy much dear Stefan.
You look my question which send about X axis and 8 graph in one page

Best regards

[dasag]

Dear Stefan you received my mail?

[Stefan Kottwitz]

I got one some days ago I see. I seldom look into that mailbox, as I don't really use it but it's connected to some websites.

I just don't provide LaTeX support via email, as it costs much time and nobody pays it. Here in a public forum I post answers because public solutions may help further people and it extends the knowhow base of this Internet forum. I maintain this platform, so I feel responsible.

Even here, I'm not often these days: busy with work and family, and writing another LaTeX book, which means just sporadic posts by me. The chance to get something done is if a question is clear, focused, detailed, complete - answerable in one go. Unlike here. But feel free to open new topics.

Stefan

Dear Stefan I say my last post about X axis and 8 graph in one page
Dear Stefan I send you hand-draw x-axis.

[Stefan Kottwitz]

I simply don't know what "I need my X axis show -168 hours, but when I write 0,4,8,12 hours very similar, how do all number far between." means.

The drawing showed me not much difference from what is already in the chart.

You go for a Ph.D.? Great. Take it as a challenge on the way to fine-tune a questions details and English wording for best legibility and readers will post a solution for anything. Should be easy for a Ph.D. candidate, and so you may get results.

Stefan

[dasag]

That is very good answer, dear Stefan
Wen I do this operaion by latex code my X axis show very bad

X-axis time 0,4,8,12 near-close to each other

Also You dont answer how do that 8 charts in one page, which code I need to write?

[Stefan Kottwitz]

X-axis time 0,4,8,12 near-close to each other

Those are the positions, they cannot be changed if chart and font remain the same. So change the scaling of the whole axis if they are too close to each other.

Also You dont answer how do that 8 charts in one page, which code I need to write?

No matter if charts, numbers, images, ... could be minipages, parboxes, tabular... the latter seams the easiest. Look, the chart from here is just in a macro - repeated, just insert any chart you want:

I have eight different graph. I read your comment and code. But I dont understand concrettly where I can write this codes. I send code of my eight grahph. Dear Stefan you can to create all 8 graph in one page. This is my end question. Thank you for all:

You could put each one between \begin{tikzpicture} ... \end{tikzpicture} into a cell of such a tabular, just separated by & (column separator) or \\ (end of line).

Here it's after midnight, I'm off for tonight.

See you,

Stefan
