Re: [Orgmode] pstricks in org-mode?

2009-10-20 Thread Johan Ekh
No luck! I did not manage to create an interest in the AucTeX mailing list
for using AucTeX preview-latex in org-mode.
Does anyone have an idea how to proceed with this?

I really think that it would be a good feature to be able to work with
pstricks code in org-mode. I'm I the only one
to think that way?

Best regards,
Johan

 I think you could start by investigating if it would be possible
 to use preview-LaTeX in a file like an Org-mode file.  For this you
 probably
 need to ask on the AUCTeX mailing lists.

Thanks for sharing with me! Your setup seems to give a good  
workflow. Before

starting to use org-mode I worked with my
graphics in emacs using the preview facility in AucTeX. Thus I  
could develop

my picture and easily update the
preview to see the effect of my last edit.

Since starting to use org-mode I find that I have it open all the  
time and

would like to include it as much as possible
in my work flow. Many of my pictures share some content and it  
would be nice

to develop some templates that
I can start with when I do my pictures. Pstricks is postscript and  
usually

do not display in dvi viewers. This is
probably why dvipng doesn't work.

Is there any way I can manipulate org-modes route to a png preview  
picture?


Best regards,
Johan

But I don't know how it behaves with pstricks.

I usually create the graphics in a separated file when I'm working  
with
latex. It's a complete latex file with the necessary preamble that  
will be
later turned into comments when I'm finished and want to actually  
include

the
graphic in my document. (using \input{graphic.tex})

When I'm working on it, Emacs occupies half of my screen (or more)  
and

evince
occupies the other half. Whenever I compile the document (using  
pdflatex

since I
use tikz to draw graphics) the pdf is automatically reloaded by  
evince.

Since I
don't rely on the preview-latex for developing the graphics I  
don't know if

it
works with tikz. I guess I'll give it a try.

...

I tried with the simple example
,
| \begin{tikzpicture}
| \draw (0,0) -- (1,1);
| \end{tikzpicture}
`
and it does not work. Only a little square is show in the Emacs  
buffer.

Well,
this is expected since the package tikz is not included in the  
temporary

.tex
file (and neither is pstricks as I could see).

After included the usepackage{tikz} in org-format-latex-header the  
preview

is
created. However nothing is show, since the graphic generated by  
tikz

(and
pstricks) is not present at the DVI stage.

This seems to be a limitation of dvipng and not org-mode.
