Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Rotate the picture I've drawn

[Mimi]

Hello everyone!

Here, I've attached the picture of the graph I need to draw. As you can see, the picture has 3 similar parts. The code for one of the 3 parts is as below:

So, I would like to know if there is a way that I can duplicate and rotate and get all 3 parts (without having to draw each part individually)?

Hi Mimi,

welcome to the forum!

Very good, that you posted a compilable example with image. So I could modify it. You can use \rotatebox of the graphicx-Package.

I would use TikZ for such a drawing.

Hi Stefan!

I got the error ! Paragraph ended before \Grot@box@std was complete. with graphicx package. I did some research on the internet and found this post. So, I added the rotating package to the code you gave and it works.

It also works without the graphicx-Package. About the error, could you clarify it for me.

[Stefan Kottwitz]

Hi Mimi,

my code works for me without error. Perhaps you did a modification? For example, don't use empty lines in such environments, which stand for paragraph breaks in LaTeX. Looks like matching the error "Paragraph ended before ... complete".

Wenn, if it works with rotating, fine. But you could consider updating the graphicx package or the whole TeX installation, if it happens with exactly my code, and is so caused by an older version.

Hi Stefan,

For example, don't use empty lines in such environments, which stand for paragraph breaks in LaTeX.

I have removed all empty lines and it works. 谢谢你.
