Re: [Gretl-users] TikZ

Moreover, it's relatively easy to perform marginal adjustments, such as aligning elements _perfectly_ (since you position them numerically/programmatically, rather than by using a mouse) if you have to. Finally, you can add anything you want to your picture, including labels and formulae, so if you want to put something like $\pi = \int_a^b f(x) \mathrm{d} x$, or "see eq. \ref{moo}", it's very easy to do so. ------------------------------------------------------- Riccardo (Jack) Lucchetti Dipartimento di Scienze Economiche e Sociali (DiSES) Università Politecnica delle Marche (formerly known as Università di Ancona) r.lucchetti(a)univpm.it http://www2.econ.univpm.it/servizi/hpp/lucchetti -------------------------------------------------------
