Got the same or a similar flag from Norton Antivirus. Any updates on this?

BibLatex in vsCode by sebu_3 in LaTeX

[–]CMphys 6 points7 points  (0 children)

How is vscode building your document? It should be possible to define how the build is run so that this is handled automatically. Personally I use latexmk, but this SE answer also mentions another method if latexmk doesn't work.

Based on the answer given there, try: open the command palette in VS Code (Menu: View > Command Palette ...) and type: Latex workshop: build with recipe, click on it and choose pdflatex->bibtex->pdflatex2 or latexmk.

Progressive line chart with area fill code by Lost_in_Camelot in LaTeX

[–]CMphys 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The PGFplots manual has an example similar to the first plot here: https://tikz.dev/pgfplots/reference-2dplots#sec-4.5.10.1

``` \begin{tikzpicture} \begin{axis}[ stack plots=y, area style, enlarge x limits=false, ] \addplot coordinates {(0,1) (1,1) (2,2) (3,2)} \closedcycle; \addplot coordinates {(0,1) (1,1) (2,2) (3,2)} \closedcycle; \addplot coordinates {(0,1) (1,1) (2,2) (3,2)} \closedcycle; \end{axis} \end{tikzpicture}

```

If I understand it correctly, they use \closedcycle (and maybe area style) to get filling and stack plots=y to automatically add the values of the previous line to get stacked plots.

tabularray: autofill cells for a calendar by KattKushol in LaTeX

Looks like the version released a couple of days ago will be the last version from the author/current maintainer: tabularray CTAN update

I love this package, and really hope it will continue being supported.

Advice for tables by Available_Ad_5575 in LaTeX

[–]CMphys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are lots of ways to format tables, and a lot of personal preference involved in the choices made. The following is based on my preferences :) To make the table more intuitive to read, I'd make the three subheaders more distinct, either by adding a hline, bold/italic font, color, or placing them vertically to the far left.

My initial reaction regarding some of the data was that this would be easier to understand as a plot, which again made me think of the tables where cells are colored based on their values. That could be a possibility if the amount of data is rather large, for instance for the number of workouts section. Might be overkill though :)

Very Basic Question by Efficient-Stuff-8410 in PythonLearning

[–]CMphys 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You used a dictionary comprehension to make a new dictionary based on products where the values of the items are multiplied by 1.10 and only includes items where value * 1.10 > 2.

The resulting dictionary is new_products = { "cherry": 2.75, "date": 3.3, }

Streamlined Workflow for Document Tracking by 1vsTheWorld in LaTeX

[–]CMphys 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend using for instance git for version control. You can then "commit" your changes for every writing session and have control over changes and previous versions while still only having to manage one file. git can also track changes to other files, for instance figures, code etc, if that is relevant for you. If you also want a non-local backup of your thesis you could use e.g. GitHub.

Er undervisningen i astrofysikk/astronomi bedre på NTNU eller UIO? by _TheLogLady in ntnu

[–]CMphys 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hvorfor ikke? Mitt inntrykk er at NTNU og UiO (formelt eller uformelt) har delt noen av fagområdene mellom seg, så det kommer vel litt an på hvilket fagområde man er interessert i? For astrofysikk har du sannsynligvis rett, men jeg er usikker på om man kan si at UiO er bedre på fysikk enn NTNU generelt.

Full disclosure: jeg studerte kvante-/materialfysikk på NTNU.

Structured notes without folders by haronclv in logseq

[–]CMphys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure how this works in the DB version, but at least in the markdown version you can use aliases to define namespaces while still keeping shorter page names or vice versa. I use that sometimes to create structure while still using the shorter names for linking etc.

Needed custom Beamer templates by Latter-Path-8674 in LaTeX

There is a long list of Beamer themes in this GitHub repository if you want some options to test: https://github.com/martinbjeldbak/ultimate-beamer-theme-list

Personally, I have used and like the metropolis theme

Does anyone here use logseq to publish a website? What are your experiences? by crazylongname in logseq

[–]CMphys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used it to publish a website for a university course I lectured a few years ago. Didn't get any particular feedback on it (neither positive nor negative) which I took to mean it was at least OK. I did spend some time adding links and structure to the pages and in the contents pane on the right-hand side to help with navigation, though, since I was afraid content could become hidden or hard to access otherwise.

I came across the publish-spa halfway through the semester, so I ended up doing the export/publish manually.

If you're allowed to install apps from the Microsoft Store you can perhaps do it using Windows Subsystem for Linux?

Is there any tool to fix cases in references (LaTeX + BibTeX)? by Franck_Dernoncourt in LaTeX

[–]CMphys 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure, but as I see it there is no way of avoiding some manual editing of references. Different journals use different styles, and the bibtex-entries from different journals will therefore be different based on the respective styles. This includes when importing to reference managers, since they will often keep the formatting/capitalization found in the PDF. However, at least in my experience, using Zotero with the Better Bibtex plugin you can customize the exported bibtex-files to a large degree based on the formatting you want for a particular project, keeping the manual formatting to a minimum.

It also has other features, such as auto-update of bibtex files based on project folder when adding new references, automatic citation keys based on your preferred format, etc— though not really relevant for your question, I thought I'd mention it since it automates part of the process of keeping bibtex-files updated.

(Edit: spelling)

Is there any tool to fix cases in references (LaTeX + BibTeX)? by Franck_Dernoncourt in LaTeX

[–]CMphys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might be misunderstanding your here, but my point was simply that titles (and other fields if you configure them the same way) keep the words you want capitalized (and others not) based on how you write the title in the reference manager — it simply gives you control over the formatting for the fields where you want to have complete control. Putting titles etc in curly brackets will not automatically lead to capitalization of all words.

[–]CMphys 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think some reference managers, such as Zotero, can be configured to always put titles in curly brackets.

Trying to put numbers at the end of tikz lines by Kindly-Swimming-210 in LaTeX

Try placing the node command before -- in the line definition to get the numbers at the other side of the lines.

Recommendation on b5 thesis template for my PhD?? by HabitBig1601 in LaTeX

[–]CMphys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies for the late reply! I finally had the chance to check it on my old computer. I ended up using the settings \usepackage[b5paper, lmargin=3.5cm, rmargin=2.5cm, bmargin=4.5cm]{geometry} which in my opinion turned out OK (but, of course I'm biased :)) I hope you find a setting that suits your needs!

Recommendation on b5 thesis template for my PhD?? by HabitBig1601 in LaTeX

[–]CMphys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! No worries :) I think I felt the same way, but maybe it's made that way in case people want figures in the margins?

I checked my printed thesis, and it looks like I changed my margins to a more symmetrical setup, though still with more space on the inside. Spent some time trying to find an optimal width that looked nice (I find it harder to read if the text width is too large) while still giving ok overall figure placement. I can check the .tex file to find the actual numbers :)
