CTAN update: pgfplots
Christian Feuersänger submitted an update to the pgfplots 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. -- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/pgfplots More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/pgfplots We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Christian Feuersänger submitted an update to the pgfplots 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.

CTAN Update: pgfplots
On Mon, 4 Aug 2008 Christian Feuersänger submitted an update to the pgfplots 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. Location on CTAN: /graphics/pgf/contrib/pgfplots License type: gpl Announcement text: -- The new version 1.1 contains speed improvements, several bugfixes and several improvements to the user interface. The file doc/latex/pgfplots/ChangeLog contains more detailed information. -- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/pgfplots .
