Hi all, I am proud to pronounce the release of pgfplots 1.13!
It is now available via CTAN http://www.ctan.org/pkg/pgfplots and http://pgfplots.sourceforge.net/ and will become part of the associated TeX package managers (MikTeX, TexLive) within the next days. A list of changes is attached to this email. Kind regards Christian Changes: 1.13: - fixed bug: incompatiblity between fillbetween and babel - fixed bug: 'compat=1.9' (or newer) failed to work with log bar plots - fixed bug: javascript incompatibility between Acrobat reader DC and clickable lib - fixed bug in polar axes: repaired default axis label positions - fixed bug in polar axes: repaired support for sloped descriptions - fixed bug: 'axis line style={draw=none}' had no effect unless one had 2d boxed axes - fixed bug: point meta expressions with '=' inside of them which caused compilation errors - fixed bug: compat=1.12 combined with interrupted plots (by empty line) failed to work - fixed bug: compat=1.12 combined with lualatex evaluated relational operations (<, ==) with the wrong operator precedence - fixed bug: fixed floor and ceil functions - fixed bug: 'set layers' broke alignment features with different manifestations ('set layers' together with fill between in group plots, together with at={} key, together with anchor) - fixed bug: fill between and group plots: fill-between graphics was missing (list of layers was lost) - fixed bug: \addplot graphics {\newFile{P.pdf}}; failed to properly expand the file name - fixed bug: fill between + error bars resulted in compilation error - fixed bug: stacked plots occasionally used a wrong coordinate mapping - fixed bug: provided suitable default legends for xbar and xbar stacked - fixed bug: 'dateplot' now computes missing 'date ZERO' automatically. 'date ZERO' is managed automatically. - new feature: Added support for search paths to find data files (table/search path) - new feature: 'xtick distance' allows to define tick positions by distance - new feature: "axis line shift=10pt" shifts axis lines together with all their descriptions - new feature: 'matrix plot' (alias 'imagesc') which allows cell-based matrix plots - new feature: unbounded point meta in mesh plots will be treated like an invisible patch - new feature: added high quality colormap 'viridis' (use 'colormap name=viridis' to activate it) - new feature: ensured that 'shader=flat' returns the same result for every choice of 'z buffer' (starting with compat=1.13) - new feature: utility function \pgfplotsforeachungrouped: added support for \breakforeach - new feature: compat=1.13: activates sampling routine with less rounding errors - new feature: cycle multiindex list (uses the 'ith' element for every provided sub-list) - new feature: 'color of colormap=<value>' or 'color of colormap=<value> of <colormap name>' - new feature: 'index of colormap=<value>' or 'index of colormap=<value> of <colormap name>' - new feature: cycle list={[of colormap]} - new feature: cycle list={[colors of colormap={0,100,500,100} of viridis]} - new feature: cycle list={[indices of colormap={0,1,2,3} of hot]} - new feature: added support for 'stack negative=on previous|separate' which allows separate plots for '+' and '-' (useful for bar plots) - new feature: added support for 'colormap access=direct' combined with 'shader=flat mean' and 'shader=interp': it previously used to interpolate indices instead of colors - new feature: \closedcycle now produces useful results for 3d line plots - new feature: added \usetikzlibrary{colorbrewer} and \usepgfplotslibrary{colorbrewer} - new feature: added 'colormap access=piecewise constant' - new feature: added rudimentary support for "Filled Contours" (based on 'colormap access=piecewise constant') - new feature: added methods to build colormaps based on other colormaps using "color of colormap", "index of colormap", "colors of colormap", "samples of colormap", and "indices of colormap" 1.12.1: minor bugfix release - fixed bug: incompatibility of 1.12 with unicode-math - fixed bug: lua backend failed to work with table input and dependency on \coordindex - fixed bug: lua backend failed with 'forget plot' 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) surf shader=faceted: time reduced to 61% of pdflatex (\addplot3[surf,samples=70] {exp(-x^2-y^2 +x*y)}) surf shader=interp: time reduced to 25% of pdflatex (\addplot3[surf,shader=interp,samples=70] {exp(-x^2-y^2 +x*y)}) surf shader=interp, parametric: time reduced to 36% of pdflatex (\addplot3[surf,shader=interp,z buffer=sort, samples=50,domain=-1:0,y domain=0:2*pi] ({sqrt(1-x^2) * cos(deg(y))}, {sqrt( 1-x^2 ) * sin(deg(y))}, x);) surf shader=faceted, parametric: time reduced to 40% of pdflatex (\addplot3[surf,z buffer=sort, samples=50,domain=-1:0,y domain=0:2*pi] ({sqrt(1-x^2) * cos(deg(y))}, {sqrt( 1-x^2 ) * sin(deg(y))}, x);) - scalability: lualated now reduces compilation time for boxplots. 10000 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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Pgfplots-features mailing list Pgfplots-features@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/pgfplots-features
