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

[dasag]

I created a graph in writeLaTeX, but I have some questions: How can set my Y-axis show only entering values (for example 1E+01), I don't want numbers?

Also: How I can set my third Y axis show only numbers 2000 and 4000 Same as picture. I want code for latex

Thank you

This questions has also been asked on TeX.SX.

Specify ticks and ticklabels.

Code: Select all

ytick={2,5,7},
yticklabels={Value 1, Value 2, Value 3},

Add axis y discontinuity=parallel for the third axis. Values 2000 and 4000 are already there.

So you would get:

You could also explain more in detail, what you would like to achieve, perhaps it's not completely clear to us.

Thank you

I added it just here:

Code: Select all

ytick={0,1,2000,4000},% your code
yticklabels={0,1,2000,4000},% your code
axis y discontinuity=parallel,% new
...

in the third axis.

I just don't understand what you mean by 1E+03 10^x. You can add anything you want. Just add ytick with certain values matching the axis, and yticklabels for arbitrary labels.

Thank you very much dear Stephan,

Thank you

This code in the document preamble would rotate the discontinuity markers and shorten them a bit.

Code: Select all

\usepackage{etoolbox}
\makeatletter
\patchcmd{\pgfplots@drawaxis@lines@preparediscont@for}{ticks,segment length=4pt, amplitude=8pt}%
  {ticks,segment length=4pt, amplitude=5pt,transform={rotate=45}}{}{}
\makeatother

Thanks

This code patches a pgfplots command. So it has to be inserted after pgfplots has been loaded, i.e. below:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=newest}
% now her it comes:
\usepackage{etoolbox}
\makeatletter
\patchcmd{\pgfplots@drawaxis@lines@preparediscont@for}{ticks,segment length=4pt, amplitude=8pt}%
  {ticks,segment length=4pt, amplitude=5pt,transform={rotate=45}}{}{}
\makeatother

You placed it before, so it did not have an effect on pgfplots. Sorry I did not mention this caveat.
