Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Prime Factor Tree Help

[tpa77l3]

Hi guys,

Hope your all keeping well under the circumstances.

I'd like a bit of help creating the following factor tree in the shown format. Try as I might, I'm getting a bit overwhelmed by the apparent possible complexity of it all! Thanks in advance

You can use TikZ for this, and make either a forest or a tree. There are other specialized packages for trees.

Thanks for the reply.

I spent some time playing around trying to alter this example:

http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/m ... sion-tree/

but have come unstuck when approaching the end. It's more than likely because I don't fully understand the syntax even after looking through the tikz manual. For whatever reason the tree will not carry on consistently after '105' and I am unable to remove the expressions on the right without it messing up the whole tree. Any ideas of where I'm going wrong?

I think in this case the example confuses a beginner rather than helping him. It is more advisable to start with a simple example and expand it until you reach your target.

In your example, a missing closing brace causes an error message:

This is great - many thanks. I guess you'd use one over the other for different situations where the complexity is greater?

Whats the best way to scale something like this down so that it doesn't take up a whole page?

[Bartman]

The size of the drawing without the forest package can be changed in the following ways:

• command \resizebox
• command \scalebox or
• the options scale and transform shape of the tikzpicture environment

Drawings with forest can only be scaled with the commands. The following source code must be inserted in the preamble so that the drawing is not shifted to the right by white space.

Frustratingly I'm even having trouble with this! Could you please provide an example of \scalebox when not using the forest option?

Why doesn't this work (taken from: https://latex.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14944)?

First of all, the respondent of the other topic does not use the standalone class. It is not necessary to load the graphicx package as this is already done by pgf/TikZ.

The documentation graphicx and the example of the other topic show the structure of the \scalebox command. Make sure that all required braces have been set.
