TikZ and PGF builds

PGF has a relatively long release cycle. To get all the latest features and bug-fixes you should use the development version of PGF. If you don't want to check out PGF from CVS yourself you can find builds here, conveniently packed in a TeX Directory Structure (TDS) compliant structure.

Warning: The development versions are not always stable. If the latest build causes problems, download and install an earlier build and wait for a bug fix.

Builds

Build date 2009-06-02
Download zip | Download documentation

2009-05-29 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • allowed numbers like '.9' in fpu.

2009-02-29 Mark Wibrow <...>

  • Fix for signal shape.

2009-05-22 Jin-Hwan Cho <...>

  • Applied the patches for dvipdfmx driver, pgf-doc-diff.version2cvs (2009-04-18) and pgf-generic-diff.version2cvs (2009-04-19).

2009-05-18 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • Restored processing of unknown keys in the predifened key filters 'and', 'not', 'or' and 'false': it was not improvement...

2009-05-17 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • fixed the sequence of arguments of \pgfqkeysactivatefamiliesandfilteroptions and \pgfqkeysactivatesinglefamilyandfilteroptions in the reference manual.

2009-05-16 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • key filtering: the composed key filter handlers 'not', 'and', 'false' and 'or' now ignore unknown options and call the .unknown handlers.
  • pgfkeys: removed the experimental \pgfkeyssetdefaultpathforhandled method. It doesn't fit into the clean interface for pgfkeys - and the problem of default paths for handled keys can be solved better with the /handler config method.

  • fixed bug in fpu sqrt.
  • provided feature to disabled fpu manually.

2008-12-31 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • added pow and greaterthan to FPU
  • fixed some FPU issues
  • fixed processing of /tikz/domain key - it produced N+1 samples instead of N.

2008-12-30 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • added further functions to fpu; improved sanity checking; fixed smaller bugs related to fpu

2008-12-29 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • improved internal floating point code: it is possible to change the low-level representation with minimal number of code lines.
  • modified low-level floating point representation. All high level code should be completely unaffected; the changes are backwards compatible.
  • Wrote first draft of a floating point unit library (fpu) similar in spirit to the fixed point library of Mark Wibrow.
  • Moved all floating point math operations (functions) into the fpu library. It is now necessary to include the library in order to use floating point math operations. The number formatting methods are still available as before.

2008-12-06 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • mark=none is now equivalent with mark= (disables plot marks). The previous behavior was to issue \pgfuseplotmark{none} which is equivalent to \relax (and wastes time).

2008-11-23 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • added support for active ! characters (for example in blue!30!black and french babel setting)
  • modified processing of domain option: the argument is \edefed such that any potentially active ':' characters will be expanded to non-active ones (avoiding errors in the following processing).

  • Fixed problem with nodes on a line inside a picture that is inside a node of another picture. Pictures will now always start with "pos=.5" set.

2008-09-07 Mark Wibrow <...>

  • Slight hack of decorations so that the input path can consist of a single move to. This enables stuff like \path [decoration={some decoration}, decorate] (4,5);

Note: The PGF manual would not compile properly with this build. The manual included in this build is from an earlier build.

2008-08-31 Mark Wibrow <...>

  • Rewrote math parser. Anyone who relies on, or has hacked internal parser or function macros, or has defined their own functions for the parser will need to reconsult the code and/or documentation.
  • Files for functions definitions split (possibly permanantly) into different files.
  • Scaling of results at the end of the parse is no longer the default action. This doesn't break PGF or TikZ, but it may break user code that depended on this scaling. To turn it back on use letpgfmathpostparse=pgfmathscaleresult.
  • Modifying existing functions or creating new functions must now be done using pgfmathdeclarefunction and pgfmathredeclarefunction.
  • Single argument functions do not need parentheses, provided the funtion is followed by a space, so sin 60 is the same as sin(60). But! Functions have the highest precedence, so sin 60x is the same as sin(60)x.
  • Added {} operators for array specification and [] operators for array access - see docs for details.
  • added postfix ! factorial operator.
  • added c++/java style conditional e.g., x > 10 ? 13 : 20.
  • added >=, <=, !=, prefix !, &&, || operators.
  • added atan2, log10, log2, e, int and frac functions.
  • adapted cosh, sinh and tanh from Martin Heller.
  • added lua-style random function for generating random integers.
  • added Mod function (note capital letter). Uses floored division and is never negative.
  • min, max, veclen and pow can now be nested in any argument position.
  • min and max can now take a variable number of arguments.
  • For compatability pgfmathmax and pgfmathmin still take two arguments (although these can contain comma separated expressions). However pgfmathmin@ and pgfmathmax@ now only take one argument in the form pgfmathmin@{{1}{2}{3}{4}{5}} (for 5 arguments).
  • added hex, Hex, bin, and oct functions. These functions will not work properly if the post-parse scaling is turned back on.
  • 0 prefix for integers now specifies an octal number which is automatically converted to base 10.
  • 0x or 0X prefix for integers now specifies a hexadecimal number, which is automatically converted to base 10.
  • 0b or 0B prefix for integers now specifies a binary number, which is automatically converted to base 10.
  • "" characters turn off parsing (!) for part of an expression.
  • added width, height, and depth functions for text e.g., width("Some text"), but as an expression is edef'ed before parsing other commands will have to be `protected' e.g., width("noexpandHuge Some text").
  • bugfix for tan and cot.

2008-07-22 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • fixed typo in pgfmathfloat.code.tex
  • added 'optimize command away=macro' key to externalization library. It allows to discard unnecessary and possibly expensive user macros during export (unnecessary = not in selected picture).

2008-07-18 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • Fixed bug in system layer path collecting. Very long paths are now processed more efficiently (the bug disabled an optimization).

2008-07-14 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • added "marker" positions into the output of number formatting routines to find period positions (even if no period is typeset) and exponent positions. Allows alignment within auxiliary routines.

2008-07-14 Till Tantau <...>

  • Fixed dash phase bug.
  • Fixed missing library include in automata lib.
  • Added "align" option. "text ragged" and friends are now deprecated. Text width need no longer not, but can, be specified. The following now has the expected effect: node [draw,align=center] {Hello\world.};

2008-07-10 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • added pgfqpointxy and pgfqpointxyz to complement the "quick" point commands in basic layer.

2008-07-09 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • added 'every mark' style.
  • 'mark options' simply overwrites 'every mark' (consistent with its old definition)

2008-07-07 Till Tantau <...>

  • Finished circuit library and documentation (well, some shapes still missing, but that's something users should contribute).

2008-07-01 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • the external library now handles active double quotes ", single quotes ', and active semicolons ';' in its system call correctly. Furthermore, \ will expand to a normal backslash. The initial system call now uses double quotes for indows compatibility, it also contains the shell-escape feature for gnuplot invocations.

2008-06-30 Till Tantau <...>

  • Did some documentation of circuit lib.
  • Removed the separated documentation of the intersection library and made this documentation part of the main documentation.
  • The intersection cs is now deprecated, the documentation is now only based on the intersection lib.
  • Added a "by" option so that "name intersections={of=A and B,by={c,d,e}}" will create an alias c for intersection-1, d for intersection-2 and e for intersection-3.
  • Renamed "path name" to "name path" in the intersection lib. This is more consistent with "name intersections".

2008-06-29 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • Minor changes on float stuff, wrote pgfmathfloatmultiply and pgfmathfloatdivide on top of pgfmathmultiply and pgfmathdivide
Build date 2008-06-27

  • Renamed various things in the intersection library.
  • Now possible to intersect un-named paths using the intersection coordinate system.

2008-06-26 Till Tantau <...>

  • Continued with circuit library.
  • Introduced subdirectories inside the pgf library directory and moved libs into them. You may need to update your checkout.

2008-06-26 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • The external library now typesets as horizontal material by issueing leavevmode. This fixes an inconsistency with the normal tikzpictures.

2008-06-25 Mark Wibrow <...>

  • Added intersection library + documentation for intersecting named'' paths.

2008-06-25 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • Fixed bug in external library. Now, strings like '#1' occuring somewhere in an image is collected correctly.

2008-06-24 Mark Wibrow <...>

  • Removed new intersection stuff. Need to restart from scratch...

2008-06-23 Till Tantau <...>

  • Started working on circuit library documentation.

2008-06-23 Mark Wibrow <...>

  • Added PGF code and docs for intersections of two curves and intersections of a line and a curve.
  • Fixed bug in foreach code when registers are used with dots statement.

2008-06-22 Till Tantau <...>

  • Created first version of circuit libraries for electrical engineering (circuits.ee.*).
  • Added libraries so that ee circuits and logical circuits can be accessed using the same interface. (circuits.logic.*)
  • The tikz lib shapes.gates.logic.* will no longer be needed, the circuits.logic. will replace them. (The pgf libs shapes.gates. are still used as before, however.)
  • Minor patch in shapes.gates.logic.US so that the .0 and .180 anchors of a not gate or a buffer gate are the same as the input or output anchors.
  • All this is not documented, yet.
  • Worked some more on dv stuff, but nothing to "show", yet.

2008-06-21 Mark Wibrow <...>

  • Fixed parsing bug in foreach code.
  • Added "rotate fit" key to fit library, so (e.g.) a rotated rectangle can be fitted around nodes/coordinates.

2008-06-21 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • Added documentation for tikz 'external' library.
  • created pgfexternalwithdepth.tex file to use the 'baseline' information.
  • improved some issues of the external library.
  • Added '/pgf/images/draft' option
  • Modified implementation of draft images to show the image file name instead of the internal image name

2008-06-19 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • Added tikz library 'external' which allows automatic or semiautomatic export of each tikzpicture to pdf. Documentation is not yet ready.
  • Added self-contained latex package tikzexternal.sty to read those images without tikz/pgf installed.
  • Added support for the 'baseline' option in beginpgfgraphicnamed ... endpgfgraphicnamed by storing the box depth into a separate file.

2008-06-19 Till Tantau <...>

  • Added first ideas for a circuit library.
  • Bugfixes in scoping behaviour.
  • Changed scoping rules for to path operation: Options are now local. This may break existing code, but is much more consistent with everything else and removes other problems.
  • Patched mindmap lib to account for these changed rules.
  • Added insert path option.
  • Deprecated "after node path". Use "append after command" and "prefix after command" instead.
  • Moved datavisualization libraries to separate subdirectory.

2008-06-18 Till Tantau <...>

  • Changed label and pin options once again, to allow more flexibility. In particular, the angle can now be omitted. Also, for rotated main nodes the anchors are now chosen in more sensible ways.

2008-06-16 Till Tantau <...>

  • Added tiny little turtle graphics library for fun.
  • Changed scoping rules for foreach statement on a path: the last coordinate is now persistent not only after the foreach statement, but also between different iterations.
  • Changed positioning of "label" when you attach a label to a transformed shape. The position is now absolute with respect to the page, unless the "transform shape" option is used.

2008-06-11 Mark Wibrow <...>

  • Fixed the bug fix for character checking in foreach.
  • Updates and fixes for new foreach code.

2008-06-13 Till Tantau <...>

  • Fixed bug in new foreach stuff that causes an error on things like foreach i in {1,...,foo}. If a list element is a macro, no is-it-a-character check is done.

2008-06-11 Mark Wibrow <...>

  • Checked in proposed foreach extensions. Possibly the extensions would be better contained in a pgflibrary...
  • list items can now be evaluated.
  • dots replacement is context sensitive.
  • sequences indicated by dots can be character sequences.
  • a list item can be remembered'' in the next iteration.
  • access to the number of the current item in the list is provided.

2008-06-09 Till Tantau <...>

  • Worked a bit on data visualization stuff.

2008-06-07 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • Added '/pgf/number format/1000 sep' and 'dec sep' shortcut styles which simply call 'set thousands separator' and 'set decimal separator'. Those option are somewhat long...

2008-06-06 Till Tantau <...>

  • Fixed the "local bounding box" option so that it honors the "relevant for picture size"-if.

2008-06-04 Till Tantau <...>

  • Fixed buggy "mid left" and "mid right" options.
  • Added "between positions" option to the "mark" option. This makes it possible to create paths with "repeated arrows along the path". This did not work before.

2008-06-03 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • Added '/pgf/number format/assume math mode' to disable math checks. This allows to assemble tabulars, apply pgfmathprintnumber to each cell and use the dcolumn package to align at decimal separators (no documentation for that feature yet)

2008-06-02 Till Tantau <...>

  • Fixed pgfpages in conjunction with everyshi.

2008-05-31 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • Semantics of |/pgf/number format/fixed zerofill| changed: it now simply sets a boolean which affects all numbers in fixed format; it does not SET fixed format. The same holds for sci zerofill.

2008-05-30 Christian Feuersaenger <...>

  • Provided pgfmathprintnumberto macro in addition to pgfmathprintnumber.

  • Moved plot handler options to /pgf key tree.
  • added 'bar shift' option.
  • bar width option is now evaluated when needed.
  • Added documentation for plot handler library changes and for tikz-plot interfaces.
  • Modified pgf manual macros: codeexamples section now employs pgfkeys, xkeyval no longer required. Introduced style 'every codeexample' to maintain compatibility and allow customization for users.

2008-05-21 Till Tantau <...>

  • Added missing documentation of moveto-decoration.

2008-05-20 Mark Wibrow <...>
