makeshape 2.1 (25 January 2013) The makeshape package simplifies writing PGF shapes. Declaring custom shapes with correct anchor borders can be difficult. Complex shapes often need complicated calculations to find the touching point of a connecting line. This package only requires that a developer write a PGF path describing the anchor border. It also provides macros that help with the management of shape parameters, and the definition of anchor points. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The package's documentation files are makeshape.pdf - The package's user guide sampleshape.tex - A sample shape. testsample.tex - Source for a document that tests the sample shape. testsample.pdf - The outcome of the tests. ontesting.pdf - A report on the various tests used in testsample.tex The package's installation files are makeshape.sty - The package's style file makeshape.ins - The package's installation file. makeshape.dtx - Source for the package's user documentation and code. ontesting.dtx - Source for a report on testing and code for the test document. These files can be generated with the following commands pdflatex makeshape.ins pdflatex makeshape.dtx pdflatex ontesting.dtx pdflatex testsample.tex Comment out the 'OnlyDescription' line in makeshape.dtx to include the package's implementation documentation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright (C) 2013 by Adrian P Robson adrian.robson@nepsweb.co.uk This work may be distributed and/or modified under the conditions of the LaTeX Project Public License, either version 1.3c of this license or (at your option) any later version.
