package.

Version number: 1.12
License type: gpl3

Summary description: Create normal/logarithmic plots in two and three
dimensions.

Announcement text:
--

1.12: scalability + performance
- scalability: reduced TeX memory consumption for huge inline tables
- scalability: lualatex allows bigger 3d graphics
- scalability: lualatex now reduces compilation time for huge 3d
graphics (requires \pgfplotsset{compat=newest} at the time of this
writing)
- scalability: lualated now reduces compilation time for boxplots.
1 input points from table: time reduced to 23% of pdflatex
- fixed bug: 3d axes where all axes used log scale produced compile
failure
- fixed bug: axis equal did not respect "disabledatascaling"
- fixed bug: mesh legend was confused by color input=explicit
- fixed bug: colorbar style did not reset zmin/zmax
- fixed bug: memory allocation in FPU consumed too much memory 
- fixed bug: boxplots: removed compilation error due to spurious spaces
in options list
- fixed bug: boxplots: now uses standard quantile estimators: has all 9
estimators of R and uses the same as in Excel as default (as of
compat=1.12)
- fixed bug: boxplots: sometimes failed to compute boxplot statistics
for special inputs
- fixed bug: boxplots: now, it sets 'mark=*' for outliers if there is
no mark (compat=1.12)
- fixed regression: compat=1.11 broke arcs inside of axis
- new feature: ensured that arcs inside of axis make use of 'axis cs'
and 'axis direction cs' automatically
- new feature: ensured that (0:1) is evaluated with axis cs
- fixed bug: precision of transformation cartesian to polar was too low
(added atan2 to fpu)
- fixed bug: z buffer caused 'mesh legend' to produce a compile error
- new feature: added 'y filter/.expression={y==3 ? nan : y}' to
simplify coordinate filters

More details can be found in the README shipped with the package.

package.

Version number: 1.11
License type: gpl3

Summary description: Create normal/logarithmic plots in two and three
dimensions.

Announcement text:
--

1.11: usability + bug fixes.
- new feature: "hide obscured x ticks=false" to disable the feature
which hides ticks
- simplified UI for symbolic coords: now, it accepts unexpandable
  dictionary entries including umlauts, undefined macros, math mode, ...
- simplified UI for symbolic coords: added magic prefix 
[normalized] to allow something like
xmin={[normalized]0.7}
- simplified UI for custom annotations: one does not need to say "axis
cs" any longer; coordinates like (1,2) are now automatically
interpreted as (axis cs:1,2)
- new feature: 'type ticklabels with struts' improves baseline
alignment of tick labels
- new feature: 'trig format plots=rad' allows to use radians in
trigonometric evaluations
- simplified 'external lib': added driver auto-detection for pdflatex,
lualatex, xelatex, dvips (\usepgfplotslibrary{external}, or, with the
next PGF release, \usetikzlibrary{external})
- simplified UI for \addplot coordinates: now, it expands macros as it
goes.
- new feature: 'intersection segments' now accepts negative indices to
count from the last backwards
- simplified UI: 'intersection segments' now accepts new syntax with
1-based indices (old 0-based are still supported)
- fixed bug: fillbetween has had a problem with pins on input paths
- fixed bug: now, 'stacked ignores zero' is no longer applied to error
bars.
- fixed bug: tick lines were drawn incorrectly for centered axis lines
in 3d
- fixed bug: variable=u failed to work in some contexts
- fixed bug: fill between implicitly activated layers, but did not
install the correct layers for grid lines etc.
- fixed bug: z grid style was applied to y grid style
[ ... more bugfixes which do not fit here. Consult the packages README]

shifts of bar plots 1.9:
- new feature: asymmetric error bars

correctly in the middle and print the increment (compat=1.9)

- new feature: 'scatter/position=relative|absolute' allow to position
'nodes near coords' absolutely. use-case: bar plots + nodes near coords
which are at, say, y=0 rather than their y value
- new feature: integration of smooth shadings & auto-CMYK conversion
\usepackage[cmyk]{xcolor} or \selectcolormodel{cmyk} will reconfigure
pgfplots to use CMYK (document-wide)

1.6.1:
- fixed incompatibility lualatex,shader=interp, and german package (introduced

1.6:
- added support for layered graphics (main use case: multiple axes and layers)
- added support for second colormap in mesh plots (mesh/interior colormap name)
- added support for scopes inside of axes
- contour plots: added ability to provide list of discrete labels (mesh/levels)
- empty lines are interpreted as interruptions in data plots (was undocumented 
since 1.4)
- added more scaling options to 'scale mode=scale uniformly' (affects axis 
equal in 3d
  and \addplot3 graphics)
- fixed wrong implementation of 'axis equal' and 'unit vector ratio' in 3d
  (backwards compatible for 2d, but not for 3d - the 3d implementation was 
plain wrong)
- fixed incompatibility of lualatex and shader=interp
- fixed bugs/added features around \addplot3 graphics
- fixed bug: colorbar did not support ymode=log
- fixed a couple of minor bugs
- fixed bounding box computation for clip=false,axis lines=none

the catalogue entry has hardly changed, and the revised version won't

On Mon, 4 Aug 2008 Christian Feuersänger submitted an update to the

package.

Pgfplots draws high-quality function plots using normal or logarithmic scaling, 
with a user-friendly interface.  The user supplies axis labels, legend entries 
and the plot coordinates for one or more plots and Pgfplots applies axis 
scaling, computes any logarithms and axis ticks and draws the plots.

Pgfplots is based on Till Tantau’s package PGF/TikZ.
