Howto Display figure twice: once in the text and once at end

Post by arthurx »

Hi
I am using latex and tikz to make figures. I have one file with all the tikz figures
right after eachother. Now i want to integrate them in the text, while also keeping them in the single file, and to display them twice. Once in the chapter or section and then at the end of the document where they appear again. So i can see all the figures without the text between them. Is there some way to do this.

First I was thinking about making many different tikz files and then use \input{}

Can I use the \input{} command to take many different slices out of a longer file?

Greetings and thanks Arthur :D :D

Welcome, yeah sure, you can slice your document up. It will be a tiny bit slower, since files have to be opened and closed, but you probably on't even notice it. Having the different pictures in different files will also keep your document a little bit cleaner. I always extract large tables or complex graphics to extra files.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Thanks for the welcome! :D
maybe that is the best way.

But in some online publications open source, they put the figures in the text and you can click on them and then they appear all together.
