+pgfplots - Create normal/logarithmic plots in two and three dimensions for LaTeX/TeX/ConTeXt.
+
+pgfplotstable - Loads, rounds, formats and postprocesses numerical tables.
+
+PGFPlots draws high--quality function plots in normal or logarithmic scaling
+with a user-friendly interface directly in TeX. The user supplies axis labels,
+legend entries and the plot coordinates for one or more plots and PGFPlots
+applies axis scaling, computes any logarithms and axis ticks and draws the
+plots. It supports line plots, scatter plots, piecewise constant plots, bar
+plots, area plots, mesh-- and surface plots, patch plots, contour plots, quiver
+plots, histogram plots, polar axes, ternary diagrams, smith charts and some
+more.
+
+Pgfplots is based on Till Tantau's package PGF/TikZ (pgf).
+
+Pgfplotstable displays numerical tables rounded to desired precision in various
+display formats, for example scientific format, fixed point format or integer,
+using TeX's math facilities for pretty printing. Furthermore, it provides
+methods for table postprocessing.
+
+Please take a look at
+ doc/latex/pgfplots/pgfplots.pdf
+and
+ doc/latex/pgfplots/pgfplotstable.pdf.

+The virus killer Avira Antivir reports the virus HTML/Malicious PDF.Gen in pgfplots.pdf.

The |patchplots| library supports grid (|mesh|) visualization in the same way as for two/three--dimensional |mesh|- and |surf| plots. This includes four different approaches: the first is |shader=faceted|, which uses constant fill color and |faceted color| for stroke paths (as we already saw in Section~\ref{sec:lib:patchplots:flat}). The second approach is to use |shader=faceted interp| which uses interpolated shadings for filling and issues stroke paths on top of each interpolated element. The third approach is to issue two |\addplot| commands, one with the filled |patch| plot, and one with a |patch,mesh| style which only draws (colored) grid lines on top of the previous plot. The three approaches are shown below.

The approach of meshes on top of patches implies to draw grid lines simply over any previous drawing operations. Thus, depth information is lost (as displayed in the first example above).

+Sometimes it is desirable to draw parts of a single plot separately, without connection between the parts (discontinuities). \PGFPlots\ offers two ways to generate interrupted plots: either using |empty line|s or by providing |unbounded coords|.
+
+The first way is simple; it needs no extra key (only |\pgfplotsset{compat=1.4}| or newer in your preamble):
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+\begin{axis}[
+ title=Interrupted data plot]

+ };
+\end{axis}
+\end{tikzpicture}
+\end{codeexample}
+\noindent Here, \PGFPlots\ runs with the default configuration |empty line=auto| which interpretes empty lines as ``jump'' markers. This works for any data input method, i.e.\ using |\addplot coordinates|, |\addplot table|, and |\addplot file|.
+
+
+The second way to generate interrupted plots addresses the case where |empty line|s are unavailable or impossible (due to limitations of the tool generating the data file, for example). In this case, interrupted plots can be achieved using the |unbounded coords| key combined with coordinate values |nan|, |inf| or |-inf|.
\begin{pgfplotskey}{unbounded coords=\mchoice{discard,jump} (initially discard)}
This key configures what to do if one or more coordinates of a single point are unbounded. Here, unbounded means it is either $\pm \infty$ (|+inf| or |-inf|) or it has the special ``not--a--number'' value |nan|.

+
+Line plots in three dimensions are also possible for data plots (tables). The most simple case is if you simply provide a series of three--dimensional coordinates which will be connected in the order of appearance:
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+\begin{axis}

+ };
+\end{axis}

+\end{codeexample}
+\noindent Note that this plot implicitly has |mesh/rows=1| because it has no end--of--scanline markers (|empty line|s). If in doubt, you can set |mesh/rows=1| explicitly to tell \PGFPlots\ that you have one--dimensional data (and not a matrix).
+
+Line plots from data files are also possible if the data files only contains two coordinates -- and the third should be provided somehow. In this case, the |table/x expr| feature comes into play: it allows to combine data plots and math expressions:
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+\begin{axis}[
+ xmin=3,xmax=6,

+\addplot3[red,domain=-3:3,samples y=0] (5,x,x^2);
+\end{axis}
+\end{tikzpicture}
+\end{codeexample}
+\noindent Here, we have two plots in one axis: one data plot from a data table with just two coordinates and one parametric plot. Both denote the same two functions. For the data plot, |x expr=4| assigns the $x$ coordinate, and |y=a,z=b| define how the input columns map to coordinates. Again, the plot implicitly uses |mesh/rows=1| since there is no end--of--scanline marker. The second plot does the same with the short--handed notation |(5,x,x^2)|. It only samples one--dimensional data due to |samples y=0|. Finally, |extra x ticks| configures two additional ticks for the $x$~axis; this is used to display grid lines for these specific ticks. The |xticklabel=\empty| argument avoids overprinted $x$~tick labels at positions $x\in\{4,5\}$.
+
Three dimensional line plots will usually employ lines to connect points (i.e.\ the initial |sharp plot| handler of \Tikz). The |smooth| method of \Tikz\ might also prove be an option. Note that no piecewise constant plot, comb or bar plot handler is supported for three dimensional axes.

+ Each mesh has two sides: one which ``points'' to the view's origin and one which points away from it. This key allows to define a second |colormap| for the side which points away from the view's origin. The motivation is to distinguish between the outer side and the interior parts of a surface:

+ \noindent The |interior colormap| is often the one for the ```inner side''. However, the orientation of the surface depends on its normal vectors: \PGFPlots\ computes them using the right-hand-rule. The right-hand-rule applied to a triangle means to take the first encountered point, point the thumb in direction of the second point and the first finger in direction of the third point. Then, the normal for that triangle is the third finger (i.e.\ the cross--product of the involved oriented edges). For rectangular patches, \PGFPlots\ uses the normal of one of its triangles\footnote{This may change in future versions.}. Consequently, |mesh/interior colormap| will only work if the involved patch segments are consistently oriented.
+
+ A patch whose normal vector points into the same direction as the view direction uses the standard |colormap name|. A patch whose normal vector points into the opposite direction (i.e.\ in direction of the viewport) uses |mesh/interior colormap|.

These can be fixed using |miter limit=1|. Second, the boundary between blue and black is incorrect. This can be improved by means of an increased sampling density (|samples=31|). In addition, we can configure \PGFPlots\ to move the boundary between the two colormaps in favor of the blue region using |mesh/interior colormap thresh| as follows:

-which allows to skip over a non-comment header line. This allows to read the same input files as |plot table| by skipping over column names. Please note that comment lines do not count as lines here.
-
-The input method |plot file| can also read meta data for every coordinate. As already explained for |plot coordinates| (see above), meta data can be used to change colors or other style parameters for every marker separately. Now, if |point meta| is set to |explicit| or to |explicit symbolic| and the input method is |plot file|, one further element will be read from disk -- for every line. Meta data is always the last element which is read.

+\subsubsection*{Summary: External Three-Dimensional Graphics}
+As has been shown in the previous sections, \verbpdfref{\addplot3} |graphics| allows to include three-dimensional graphics and \PGFPlots\ overlays a flexible axis with all its power. The cost to do so is
+\begin{enumerate}
+ \item collect both logical three--dimensional coordinates \emph{and} image--internal two--dimensional coordinates for \emph{four points} of your graphics.
+
+ In Matlab, this can be simplified by the tool mentioned on page~\pageref{sec:plotgraphics3d:matlabscript}.
+
+ \item If your axes form a right--handed--coordinate system, that is all. If not, also add |x dir=reverse| for any reversed axes.
+\end{enumerate}
+
+\noindent
+Consider the following list of you encounter problems while working with \verbpdfref{\addplot3} |graphics|:
\begin{itemize}
\item It must be possible to deduce the origin and the three (two--dimensional) unit vectors from the four provide |points|; otherwise the algorithm will fail.
The algorithm should detect any deficiancies. However, if you encounter strange ``Dimension too large'' messages here, you can try other arguments in |points|. Take a look into your log file, it will probably indicate the source of problems (or use the |debug| key).
\item \PGFPlots\ uses the first two points to squeeze the graphics into the desired coordinates (which implies that they should not have the same canvas $X$ or $Y$ coordinates). It verifies that the remaining |points| arguments are projected correctly.
- \item The resulting scaling by means of |scale mode=scale uniformly| will only rescale the $z$ axis. You may need to adjust |width| and |height| (both of them) if the result is unsatisfactory (see the example above).
+ \item The resulting scaling by means of |scale mode=scale uniformly| will try to satisfy all scaling constraints. You can change these constraints by modifying |width|, |height|, |xmin|, |xmax|, |ymin|, |ymax|, |zmin|, |zmax| and/or any combination of these parameters. See also |unit rescale keep size| which controls the flexibility of limit changes. There is also a key |scale uniformly strategy| which allows to select a different scaling strategy.
+
+ \item The image should have a ``right--handed--coordinate system'': you should be able to take your right hand, point your thumb in direction of the $x$ axis, your first finger in direction of~$y$, and your second finger in direction of the $z$~axis. If that is impossible, once of your axes is reversed and you need to communicate that to \PGFPlots\ explicitly by means of the |x dir=reverse| key (and its variants).
+
\item There is a |debug| key to investigate what the algorithm is doing:
\begin{pgfplotskey}{plot graphics/debug=\marg{true,false} (initially false)}
If you provide |\addplot3 graphics[debug,points={...}]|, \PGFPlots\ will provide debug information onto your terminal and into the logfile. It will also generate extra files containing the determined unit vectors and the linear system used to derive them (one such file for every |\addplot3 graphics| statement, the filename will be the graphics file name and |.dat| appended).

+\subsubsection{Reading Coordinates From Files}
+
+\begin{addplotoperation}[]{file}{\marg{name}}
+\label{pgfplots:addplot:file}
+\paragraph{Deprecation note:} If you have data files, you should generally use |\addplot table|. The input type |\addplot file| is almost the same, but considerably less powerful. It is only kept for backwards compatibility.
+
+
+The |\addplot file| input mechanism is similar to the \Tikz-command `|plot file|'. It is to be used like
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+\addplot file {datafile.dat};
+\end{codeexample}
+where \meta{name} is a text file with at least two columns which will be used as $x$ and $y$ coordinates. Lines starting with `|%|' or `|#|' are ignored. Such files are often generated by \textsc{gnuplot}:
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+#Curve 0, 20 points
+#x y type
+0.00000 0.00000 i
+0.52632 0.50235 i
+1.05263 0.86873 i
+1.57895 0.99997 i
+...
+9.47368 -0.04889 i
+10.00000 -0.54402 i
+\end{codeexample}
+This listing has been copied from~\cite[section~16.4]{tikz}.
+
+Plot file accepts one optional argument,
+
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+\addplot file[skip first] {datafile.dat};
+\end{codeexample}
+
+\noindent
+which allows to skip over a non-comment header line. This allows to read the same input files as |plot table| by skipping over column names. Please note that comment lines do not count as lines here.
+
+The input method |plot file| can also read meta data for every coordinate. As already explained for |plot coordinates| (see above), meta data can be used to change colors or other style parameters for every marker separately. Now, if |point meta| is set to |explicit| or to |explicit symbolic| and the input method is |plot file|, one further element will be read from disk -- for every line. Meta data is always the last element which is read. See page~\pageref{pgfplots:scatter:src} for information and examples about per point meta data and page~\pageref{pgfplots:scatterclasses} for an application example using |scatter/classes|.
+
+
+Plot file is very similar to |plot table|: you can achieve the same effect with
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+\addplot table[x index=0,y index=1,header=false] {datafile.dat};
+\end{codeexample}
+\noindent Due to its simplicity, |plot file| is slightly faster while |plot table| allows higher flexibility.
+
+Technical note: every opened file will be protocolled into your log file.
+
+ The file can contain |empty line|s to tell \PGFPlots\ that the function has jumps. To use it, simply insert an empty line (and ensure that you have |\pgfplotsset{compat=1.4}| or newer in your preamble). See the documentation of |empty line| for details.
+\end{addplotoperation}
+
+\begin{pgfplotskeylist}{%
+ plot file/skip first=\mchoice{true,false} (initially false),%
+ plot file/ignore first=\mchoice{true,false} (initially false)}
+ The two keys can be provided as arguments to |\addplot file[|\meta{options}|] |\marg{filename}|;| to skip the first non-comment entry in the file. They are equivalent.
+ If you provide them in this context, the prefix |/pgfplots/plot file| can be omitted.

+\subsection{Layers}
+{
+\tikzset{external/figure name/.add={}{layers_}}%
+
+It is important that several parts of an axis are drawn ``on top'' of others. Usually, \PGFPlots\ ensures this by drawing them in a suitable sequence (usually background followed by grid lines, followed by tick lines and tick labels, followed by plots and finally axis descriptions). While this works reasonable in most cases, there are cases where more control is desired. One common use-case is if multiple axes shall be drawn into the same picture: here, the sequence from above should be applied to all involved axes simultaneously.
+
+\subsubsection{Summary}
+This section is the technical reference for using and customizing layered graphics in \PGFPlots. As such, it is hard reading.
+
+For most purposes, the following is \emph{completely} sufficient for you: If you want to enable layered graphics, put the following statement into the |tikzpicture| which is supposed to have layered graphics:
+
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+ \pgfplotsset{set layers}
+ \begin{axis}
+ ...
+ \end{axis}
+
+ % perhaps a second axis which should use the same layers?
+ \begin{axis}
+ ...
+ \end{axis}
+\end{tikzpicture}
+\end{codeexample}
+\noindent This enables layered graphics for that specific |tikzpicture|.
+
+You may want layered graphics if you have multiple axes in the same picture, of if you have specific needs for your plot.
+
+Consider reading |on layer| if you want to move particular elements of your axis to a different layer.
+
+
+\subsubsection{Using Predefined Layers}
+The main key to control layered graphics with \PGFPlots\ is |set layers|:
+
+\pgfkeys{
+ /pgfmanual/gray key prefixes/.add={/pgfplots/layers/,}{},
+}
+
+\begin{pgfplotskey}{set layers=\mchoice{none,\normalfont\meta{layer configuration name}} (initially none)}
+ This key enables layered graphics for either the current axis or for all following axes.
+
+ Enabling layered graphics has the effect that the order in which graphical elements are given is unrelated to the ordering in which they will be drawn. The main benefit is if you have multiple axes in the same figure: the axes can share the same layers.
+
+ The invocation |set layers=none| disables layered graphics.
+
+ The invocation |set layers| (without equal sign and without arguments) is the same as if you would write |set layers=||default|.
+
+ In all other cases, |set layers| expects a \meta{layer configuration name}. There are two predefined configurations available (the prefix |/pgfplots/layers/| is optional):
+
+ \begin{pgfplotskey}{layers/standard}
+ A layer configuration which defines the layers \texttt{axis background}, \texttt{axis grid}, \texttt{axis ticks}, \texttt{axis lines}, \texttt{axis tick labels}, \texttt{main}, \texttt{axis descriptions}, \texttt{axis foreground}. They are drawn in the order of appearance.
+ \end{pgfplotskey}
+
+ \begin{pgfplotskey}{layers/axis on top}
+ A layer configuration which uses the same layer names as |layers/standard|, but with a different sequence: \texttt{axis background}, \texttt{main}, \texttt{axis grid}, \texttt{axis ticks}, \texttt{axis lines}, \texttt{axis tick labels}, \texttt{axis descriptions}, \texttt{axis foreground}.
+
+ This layer is automatically used if the key |axis on top| is used together with |set layers=|\meta{any layer configuration name}.
+ \end{pgfplotskey}
+
+ As soon as the key |set layers=|\meta{layer configuration name} is encountered, \PGFPlots\ starts the \pgfname\ command |\pgfsetlayers|\marg{layer names} with the layer names of the respective configuration. Usually, this \emph{replaces} the current layer configuration of the embedding |tikzpicture|. Furthermore, |set layers| stores the name of \meta{layer configuration name} such that every following |axis| knows how to map graphical elements to layer names.
+
+
+ The fact that layer configurations are properties of a complete |tikzpicture| (whereas an axis is only one of multiple graphical elements of that picture), they need to be given at one of several supported positions:
+ \begin{enumerate}
+ \item Directly within the picture:
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+ \pgfplotsset{set layers=default}
+ \begin{axis}
+ ...
+ \end{axis}
+\end{tikzpicture}
+\end{codeexample}
+ \noindent This option explicitly tells the reader of your source code that a significant portion of your picture has been changed: the complete picture has and uses a \meta{layer configuration name} (in this case |default|).
+
+ \item As option for one or more axes which is/are directly within the picture:
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+ \begin{axis}[set layers]
+ ...
+ \end{axis}
+\end{tikzpicture}
+\end{codeexample}
+ Here, \PGFPlots\ implicitly communicates its layer configuration to the enclosing |tikzpicture|. Thus, the effect of |set layers| is \emph{not local to an axis}; it survives until |\end{tikzpicture}|. Any other option only survives until |\end{axis}|.
+
+ In this case, only the \emph{last} activated layer configuration will apply to the picture.
+
+ \paragraph{Limitation: no environments or local \TeX\ groups allowed.} Standard usages as within the examples of this manual will always work. But since the layer name configuration is essentially part of a \PGF\ picture (at a low level), one cannot arbitrarily set them; \PGF\ will complain if they are changed within some nested \TeX\ groups or \LaTeX\ environments. Typically, you will never need to worry about this.
+
+ In short, the following examples are \emph{forbidden} because the axis is within locally nested groups.
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+ {% FORBIDDEN! Consider using case (1) above!
+ \begin{axis}[set layers]
+ ...
+ \end{axis}
+ }
+\end{tikzpicture}
+\end{codeexample}
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+ \begin{scope} % FORBIDDEN! Consider using case (1) above!
+ \begin{axis}[set layers]
+ ...
+ \end{axis}
+ \end{scope}
+\end{tikzpicture}
+\end{codeexample}
+ \noindent These examples are forbidden because the layer configuration will be cleared by the `|}|' of the first forbidden example and by the `|\end{scope}|' of the second example. A solution would be one of the different placement options (i.e. choice (1.) or (3.)).
+
+ \item outside of any picture:
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+\pgfplotsset{set layers=default}
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+ \begin{axis}
+ ...
+ \end{axis}
+\end{tikzpicture}
+\end{codeexample}
+ \noindent This choice configures the layer configuration for \emph{every} following |tikzpicture|.
+
+ \end{enumerate}
+
+
+ \paragraph{Limitation: axis alignment restricted to inner anchors.} This applies only if you changed the default value of |anchor| (which is |anchor=south west|).
+ Any axis which uses layered graphics should use one of the following values of |anchor|: |north|, |north west|, |west|, |south west|, |south|, |south east|, |east|, |north east|, |north|, |center|, |origin|, |above origin|, |left of origin|, |right of origin|, |below origin|. In case you really need another anchor, \PGFPlots\ requires the use of |cell picture=true|, causing the layers to be local for that specific axis.
+
+ The technical background for this limitation is a hen-and-egg problem: outer anchors (like |outer south west|) are only available \emph{after} the complete axis has been generated -- and layers can only be drawn after each drawing instruction has been issued. The technical keys for further reading are |cell picture=false| or |cell picture=if necessary| (one of them is active for layered graphics).
+\end{pgfplotskey}
+
+\begin{command}{\pgfplotssetlayers}
+ An alias for |\pgfplotsset{set layers}|. It activates the |layers/default| layer configuration.
+
+\end{command}
+\begin{command}{\pgfplotssetlayers\marg{layer configuration name}}
+ An alias for |\pgfplotsset{set layers=|\marg{layer configuration name}|}|.
+\end{command}
+
+\begin{handler}{{.define layer set}=\marg{ordered layer names}\marg{style definitions}}
+ Allows to define a new layer set configuration named \meta{key}. Afterwards, \meta{key} is a valid argument for |set layers=|\meta{key}.
+
+ The first argument \meta{ordered layer names} is a comma-separated list of layer names. The names are arbitrary, and |\pgfdeclarelayer| will be called for every encountered argument\footnote{To be more precise: \texttt{set layers} calls \texttt{\textbackslash pgfdeclarelayer} when it uses \meta{ordered layer names}.}. There is just one ``magic'' name: the layer |main| should be part of every \meta{ordered layer names} as it will contain every graphical element which is not associated with a specific layer.
+
+ The second argument \meta{style definitions} contains options -- just as if you would have written \meta{key}|/.style=|\marg{style definitions}. The \meta{style definitions} are supposed to contain \PGFPlots\ style redefinitions which make use of each encountered element of \meta{ordered layer names}. This is probably best explained by an example: the |layers/standard| layer configuration is defined by
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+\pgfplotsset{
+ layers/standard/.define layer set=
+ {axis background,axis grid,axis ticks,axis lines,axis tick labels,main,%
+ axis descriptions,axis foreground}
+ {
+ grid style= {/pgfplots/on layer=axis grid},
+ tick style= {/pgfplots/on layer=axis ticks},
+ axis line style= {/pgfplots/on layer=axis lines},
+ label style= {/pgfplots/on layer=axis descriptions},
+ legend style= {/pgfplots/on layer=axis descriptions},
+ title style= {/pgfplots/on layer=axis descriptions},
+ colorbar style= {/pgfplots/on layer=axis descriptions},
+ ticklabel style= {/pgfplots/on layer=axis tick labels},
+ axis background@ style={/pgfplots/on layer=axis background},
+ 3d box foreground style={/pgfplots/on layer=axis foreground},
+ },
+}
+\end{codeexample}
+ \noindent This definition declares a couple of layers, and it adjusts \PGFPlots\ styles by adding |on layer| commands. The arguments for |on layer| are the elements of \meta{ordered layer names}.
+
+ Note that if you have an element in \meta{ordered layer names} which is never referenced inside of \meta{style definitions}, this layer will always be empty. In other words: the \emph{only} reference to the names in \meta{ordered layer names} is \meta{style definitions}, \PGFPlots\ has no hard-coded magic layer names (except for |main| as explained above).
+
+ Since the second argument \meta{style definitions} defines \meta{key} to be a normal style key, one can simply use \meta{key} in order to set \meta{style definitions}. This allows to inherit them. For example, the |layers/axis on top| layer configuration is defined by means of
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+\pgfplotsset{
+ /pgfplots/layers/axis on top/.define layer set=
+ {axis background,main,axis grid,axis ticks,axis lines,axis tick labels,%
+ axis descriptions,axis foreground}
+ {/pgfplots/layers/standard}
+}
+\end{codeexample}
+ \noindent i.e.\ it only redefines the \emph{sequence} of the layers and re-uses the style definitions of |layers/standard|.
+
+ Any number of layer configurations can be defined.
+\end{handler}
+
+
+\subsubsection{Changing the Layer of Graphical Elements}
+There are a couple of keys which change the layer of a graphical element.
+
+\begin{pgfplotskey}{on layer=\marg{layer name}}
+ Providing this key somewhere in a \PGFPlots\ style or inside of a \PGFPlots\ axis will change the layer for all graphical elements for which the style applies.
+
+ For example,
+\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+...
+\begin{axis}[set layers,grid style={/pgfplots/on layer=axis foreground}]
+...
+\end{codeexample}
+ \noindent will change the layer for any grid lines to |axis foreground|.
+
+ The argument \meta{layer name} is expected to be part of the current layer configuration, i.e.\ the argument of |set layers| should contain it.
+
+ Note that if you have two \emph{plots} with different values of |on layer|, you may also want to enable |clip mode=clip individual| or to deactivate clipping altogether using |clip=false|. Clipping options need to be provided as option to the axis, not to the plot. The technical background is that clip paths needs to be replicated for the layer on which the drawing is supposed to happen -- otherwise they will be applied to the wrong layer.
+\end{pgfplotskey}
+
+\begin{pgfplotskey}{mark layer=\mchoice{auto,like plot,\meta{layer name}} (initially auto)}
+ An advanced key which defines the layer for plot |mark|s. It is typically the best choice to leave it at |auto|.
+
+ If you write |\addplot[on layer=|\meta{layer name}|]|, the
+ layer will be used for the complete plot. Plot marks are treated with special care, so you can define an own layer for plot marks.
+
+ The initial choice \declaretext{auto} will automatically define a ``suitable'' choice, leaving the responsability with \PGFPlots. Here, ``suitable'' means to respect |clip mode| and |clip marker paths| in a way such that plot marks will not be clipped even though the default layer for your plot will be clipped.
+
+ The choice \declaretext{like plot} will pack the marks onto the same layer as the plot they belong to. This might cause clipped markers, i.e.\ markers which are only displayed partially if they are close to the boundary of the axis.
+
+ Finally, one can provide any \meta{layer name}, just as for |on layer| -- but the layer can be different from the layer used for the plot.

\subsection{Scaling Options}
+There are a various options which control or change the scaling of an axis. Here, ``scaling'' typically means two aspects: first, the unit vector size in each direction and second, the displayed limits in each direction. Both together control the size of the axis box. In addition, axis descriptions change the size. However, \PGFPlots\ scales only units and determines limits. It does not scale axis descriptions by default in order to keep consistent font sizes between the text and the figure.
-\begin{pgfplotskey}{width=\marg{dimen}}
-Sets the width of the final picture to \marg{dimen}. If no |height| is specified, scaling will respect aspect ratios.
+Often, one wishes to provide the target size only and let \PGFPlots\ do the rest. This is the default; it scales the axis to |width| and |height|. If you provide one of these options, the axis will be rescaled while keeping the aspect ratio.
-\paragraph{Remarks:}
-\begin{itemize}
- \item The scaling only affects the width of one unit in $x$-direction or the height for one unit in $y$-direction. Axis labels and tick labels won't be resized, but their size is used to determine the axis scaling.
+Occasionally, one wants to provide unit vectors explicitly to ensure that one unit takes a prescribed amount of space. This is possible by means of the |x|, |y|, and |z| keys. In such a case, the |width| and |height| options will be ignored (or only applied for the unspecified unit vectors).
- \item You can use the |scale=|\marg{number} option,
-\begin{codeexample}[code only]
-\begin{tikzpicture}[scale=2]
-\begin{axis}
-...
+Another common approach is to enforce specific |unit vector ratio|s: for example by specifying that each unit should take the same amount of space using |axis equal|. Here, \PGFPlots\ scales the lengths of all vectors uniformly, i.e.\ it applies the same scale to each vector. This is done by means of the |scale mode| configuration which is basically one of |scale mode=stretch to fill| or |scale mode=scale uniformly|: \PGFPlots\ tries to satisfy the prescribed |width| and |height| arguments by finding a \emph{common} scaling factor. In addition, it attempts to enlarge the limits individually to fit into the prescribed dimensions.
+
+In addition, you can use the option |/pgfplots/scale| to simply scale all final units up by some prescribed factor. This does not change text labels.
+
+If needed, you can also supply |/tikz/scale| to an axis. This will scale the complete resulting image, including all text labels.
+
+\subsubsection{Common Scaling Options}
+All common options mentioned in the previous paragraphs are described here.
+
+\begin{pgfplotskey}{width=\marg{dimen} (initially empty)}
+Sets the width of the final picture to \marg{dimen}.
+
+Any non-empty dimension like |width=5cm| sets the desired target width. Any \TeX\ unit is accepted (like |200pt| or |5in|).
+
+An empty value |width={}| means ``use default width or rescale proportionally to |height|''. In this case, \PGFPlots\ uses the value of |\axisdefaultwidth| as target quantity. However, if the |height| key has been set, \PGFPlots\ will rescale the |\axisdefaultwidth| in a way which keeps the ratio between |\axisdefaultwidth| and |\axisdefaultheight|. This allows to specify just one of |width| and |height| and keep aspect ratios.
+
+Consequently, if you specify just |width=5cm| but leave the default |height={}|, the scaling will respect the initial aspect ratio.
+
+The scaling affects the unit vectors for $x$, $y$, and $z$. It does not change the size of text labels or axis descriptions.
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+\begin{axis}[width=5cm]
+ \addplot {x};
\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}
- to scale the complete picture.
- \item The \Tikz-options |x| and |y| which set the unit dimensions in $x$ and $y$ directions can be specified as arguments to |\begin{axis}[x=1.5cm,y=2cm]| if needed (see below). These settings override the |width| and |height| options.
+Please note that \PGFPlots\ only estimates the size needed for axis- and tick labels. The estimate assumes a fixed amount of space for anything which is outside of the axis box. This has the effect that the final images may be slightly larger or slightly smaller than the prescribed dimensions. However, the fixed amount is always the same; it is set to~|45pt|. That means that multiple pictures with the same target dimensions will have the same size for their axis boxes -- even if the size for descriptions varies.
- \item You can also force a fixed width/height of the axis (without looking at labels) with
-\begin{codeexample}[code only]
+It is also possible to scale the \emph{axis box} to the prescribed width/height. In that case, the total width will be larger due to the axis descriptions. However, the axis box fills the desired dimensions exactly.
+\begin{codeexample}[]
\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis}[width=5cm,scale only axis]
- ...
+ \addplot {x};
\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}
- \item Please note that up to the writing of this manual, \PGFPlots\ only estimates the size needed for axis- and tick labels. It does not include legends which have been placed outside of the axis\footnote{I.e. the `\texttt{width}' option will not work as expected, but the bounding box is still ok.}. This may be fixed in future versions.
+ \paragraph{Note:} changing |width| and/or |height| changes \emph{only} the unit vector sizes. In particular, it does not change the font size for any axis description, nor does it change the default spacing between adjacent tick labels. It is best-practice to use |width|/|height| for ``small'' changes, i.e.\ changes for which the font size should remain the same. Consider using one of the styles |normalsize|, |small|, |footnotesize|, or |tiny| which are described in Section~\ref{sec:scaling:styles} on page~\pageref{sec:scaling:styles}, and \emph{then} change to your desired dimensions if you need a different ``quality'' of scaling.
+
+ \begin{command}{\axisdefaultwidth}
+ This macro defines the default width. It is preset to |240pt|.
- Use the |x=|\marg{dimension}, |y=|\marg{dimension} and |scale only axis| options if the scaling happens to be wrong.
-\end{itemize}
+ This default width defines the aspect ratio which will be used whenever just one of |width| or |height| is specified: the aspect ratio is the ratio between |\axisdefaultwidth| and |\axisdefaultheight|.

- Specifies how |width|, |height|, and the three unit vector keys |x|, |y|, and |z| are combined to produce the final image.
-
- The initial choice \declaretext{auto} chooses one of the other possible choices depending on the actual context. More precisely, it is the same as |none| if at least one of |x|, |y|, or |z| is provided (meaning that these keys are the final unit size). If no unit is provided, it defaults to |stretch to fill|.
-
- The choice |none| does not apply any rescaling at all. Use this if prescribed lengths of |x|, |y| (and perhaps |z|) should be used. In other words: it ignores |width| and |height|. In this case, you may want to set |x post scale| and its variants to rescale units manually.
-
- The choice |stretch to fill| takes |x|, |y|, and |z| as they have been found (either from user input or from some automatic processing) and rescales the axis with two \emph{separate} scales: one which results in the proper |width| and one which results in the proper |height|. As a consequence, the unit vectors are modified and distorted such that the final image fits into the prescribed dimensions. This is usually what one expects unless one provides unit directions explicitly.
-
- The choice |scale uniformly| is similar -- but it applies only \emph{one} scaling factor to fit into the prescribed dimensions. This scaling factor will be the same for both, |width| and |height|. Naturally, this will result in unsatisfactory results because either the final width or the final height will not be met. Therefore, this choice will enlarge or shrink limits to get the desired dimensions. Thus, the unit vectors have exactly the same size \emph{relations and angles} as they had before the scaling; only their magnitude is changed uniformly. But due to the given constraints, parts of the image may be empty or may no longer be visible. In case the outcome needs manual improvements, you can improve the visibility by modifying |width| and/or |height| (more freedom is not supported for this choice). Note that \PGFPlots\ implements this rescaling \textbf{if and only if} $e_{yx} = 0$ (for two--dimensional axes) or $e_{zx} = 0$ (for three-dimensional axes). In other words: for two--dimensional axes, the |y| vector has to be parallel to the canvas $y$ direction and for three-dimensional axes, the same holds for the |z| vector. The idea is to rescale only the vertical part of one unit vector and to change the limits of that respective axis simultaneously. The |scale uniformly| choice is used to realize the \verbpdfref{\addplot3 graphics} feature, see the documentation in Section~\ref{sec:plotgraphics3d} on page~\pageref{sec:plotgraphics3d} for its examples.

+\subsubsection{Scaling Strategies}
+ The content of this section is quite involved -- and its knowledge is typically unnecessary because by default, \PGFPlots\ controls the involved stuff automatically. You may want to skip this section.
+
+\begin{pgfplotskey}{scale mode=\mchoice{auto,none,stretch to fill,scale uniformly} (initially auto)}
+ Specifies how to choose the (individual) unit vector scaling factors, their length ratios, and perhaps the axis limits in order to fill the prescribed |width| and |height|.
+
+ The |scale mode| implementation expects some ``initial'' set of unit vectors. This initial set of unit vectors is determined as follows: for standard two--dimensional axes, it is simply the unit cube $e_x=(1\text{pt},0\text{pt})^T$, $e_y=(0\text{pt},1\text{pt})^T$, $e_z=0$. For three--dimensional axes, it is the outcome of the two keys |view| and |plot box ratio|. If you provided units explicitly by means of one of |x|, |y|, or |z|, this value is the initial unit vector.
+
+ In addition, it expects ``initial'' axis limits (i.e.\ values of |xmin|, |xmax|, etc.). The initial axis limits are those limits which have been deduced from your data or which have been provided explicitly. Furthermore, the initial axis limits already include changes of the |enlargelimits| key.
+
+ Given the initial set of unit vectors and the initial axis limits, the |scale mode| implementation is a kind of ``post--processor'' which creates modified unit vectors and modified axis limits in order to satisfy all specified constraints. These constraints are |width|, |height|, and |unit vector ratio|.
+
+ The initial choice \declaretext{auto} tells \PGFPlots\ to take full control over this key. It chooses one of the other possible choices depending on the actual context. The choice |auto| evaluates to |scale uniformly| if |unit vector ratio| is set. Otherwise it evaluates to |stretch to fill|.
+
+ The choice \declaretext{none} does not apply any rescaling at all. Use this if prescribed lengths of |x|, |y| (and perhaps |z|) should be used. In other words: it ignores |width| and |height|. In this case, you may want to set |x post scale| and its variants to rescale units manually. See also |disabledatascaling|.
+
+ The choice \declaretext{stretch to fill} takes the initial unit vectors and rescales the unit vectors with two \emph{separate} scales: one which results in the proper |width| and one which results in the proper |height|. As a consequence, the unit vectors are modified and distorted such that the final image fits into the prescribed dimensions. This is usually what one expects unless one provides unit directions explicitly. This mode does not change axis limits. Note that if one of the unit vectors has been provided explicitly, \PGFPlots\ will not change it. It will only change the remaining axis limits. This mode contradicts |axis equal| or |unit vector ratio|.
+
+ The choice \declaretext{scale uniformly} takes the initial unit vectors and applies only \emph{one} scaling factor to all units. In this case, there is just \emph{one} common scaling factor for both |width| and |height|. Naturally, this will result in unsatisfactory results because either the final width or the final height will not be met. Therefore, this choice will adjust axis limits to get the desired dimensions. Thus, the unit vectors have exactly the same size \emph{relations and angles} as they had before the scaling; only their magnitude is changed uniformly. In addition, axis limits may be changed (with individual scaling factors for each axis limit). Note that if unit vectors have been provided explicitly, \PGFPlots\ can still rescale it with this choice -- it will keep the relative directions and size ratios. The choice |scale uniformly| tries its best to modify the degrees of freedom in a ``useful'' way. The precise meaning of ``useful'' is the |scale uniformly strategy| key.
+
+ \begin{pgfplotskey}{scale uniformly strategy=\mchoice{auto,units only,change vertical limits,\\change horizontal limits} (initially auto)}
+ The |scale uniformly| method requires to determine one \emph{common} scaling factor which rescales every axis \emph{unit}. In addition, it allows one scaling factor \emph{for each axis limit}, i.e.\ up to three.
+
+ The constraints for this search are that we want to satisfy the |width|/|height| constraint, have as few rescaling as possible and that we do not want to reduce limits (as this could possibly hide data points).
+
+ The choice \declaretext{auto} chooses one of the other possibilities automatically. Depending on whether we have two dimensions or three dimensions, it compares the available methods and chooses the one which does not reduce limits and which involves the fewest rescaling (i.e.\ it may compare the outcome of the other strategies). This is the default. If you keep the choice |auto|, you do not have to worry about the remaining choices. Note that manually provided axis limits will not be modified.
+
+ The choice \declaretext{units only} will not enlarge axis limits. It will only rescale the units. To this end, it chooses the scaling factor such that the \emph{smaller} target dimension is filled as desired. In other words: if |width| $< $ |height|, it will scale to satisfy the |width| constraint. The |height| constraint will be ignored. The case $>$ will be done the other way round. The choice |units only| typically results in a square axis as it takes the initial set of unit vectors (which are typically the unit box) and scales them with a common scaling factor. Consequently, you can choose |units only| if you want a boxed axis. You can still change axis limits manually, however.
+
+ The choice \declaretext{change vertical limits} chooses a common scaling factor for the unit vectors on order to satisfy the |width| (!) constraint. This common scaling factor is similar to |units only| -- but |units only| can also decide to satisfy the |height| constraint whereas |change vertical limits| will scale unit vectors to satisfy |width|. In order to satisfy the |height| constraint, |change vertical limits| modifies just the vertical limits. For two--dimensional axes, this is |ymin| and |ymax|. For three--dimensional axes, this is |zmin| and |zmax|. Clearly, there is a chance that it will \emph{decrease} the displayed range -- in this case, parts of the image will be clipped away. This method \emph{assumes} that the vertical axis has not been rotated (i.e.\ that $e_{yx}=0$ or $e_{zx}=0$, respectively). It refuses to work and falls back to |units only| for rotates axes. Choose |change vertical limits| if you want the image (i.e.\ the actual content) as wide as possible. You can modify |width| and |height| to improve its outcome. Note that manually specified axis limits will not be changed, see below for details.
+
+ The choice \declaretext{change horizontal limits} attempts a similar approach, but for the horizontal limits: it determines one suitable scaling factor which is applied to all unit vectors and modifies horizontal axis limits to satisfy the remaining constraints. For two--dimensional axes, this is quite simple because we typically have $e_{xy} = 0$ (i.e.\ the $x$ unit vector has vanishing $y$ component) and $e_{yx}=0$ such that \PGFPlots\ can change axis limits easily. If a two--dimensional axis has an $x$ unit with $e_{xy} \neq 0$, the method is not applicable and falls back to |units only|. For three--dimensional axes, it assumes that the $z$ vector is not rotated, i.e.\ $e_{zy} = 0$ and tries to change limits for both $x$ and $y$. This choice is much more involved because here, $x$ and $y$ components are coupled. Consequently, the common unit scaling factor and the two involved axis limit compensation factors for $x$ and $y$ are tightly coupled as well. \PGFPlots\ solves a system of non--linear equations iteratively to arrive at a suitable solution for all three scalings. Use this method if |change vertical limits| would clip away parts of the image (because it reduced the displayed range) and you do not want to change |width| and |height|. The choice |change horizontal limits| will typically result in more empty space in the resulting figure. But it will not clip away content. Manually specified axis limits will not be changed, see below for details.
+
+ \end{pgfplotskey}
+
+ \paragraph{Manually provided axis limits:} Any manually provided arguments for |xmin| and its variants are considered to be immutable; \PGFPlots\ will not change them. If you assign |xmin|, \PGFPlots\ will only change |xmax| and vice--versa. If you assign both |xmin| and |xmax|, \PGFPlots\ will not change $x$~limits at all. Note that if you assign both |xmin| and |xmax|, \PGFPlots\ will simply skip the scaling and will give up on the constraints. It will not try to compensate the lack of scaling opportunities by changing $y$~limits, for example. This has the positive effect that assigning limits does not change the complete appearance of your axis. The allowed set of changes to axis limits can be configured with the following key.
+
+ \paragraph{Interaction with }|enlargelimits|: Note that |enlargelimits| and |scale mode| are independent of another: the outcome of |enlargelimits| is used as ``initial axis limits'' and these limits may be changed by |scale mode| (even if you said |enlargelimits=false|). See the documentation of |enlargelimits| for details on this interaction.
+
+ \begin{pgfplotskey}{
+ unit rescale keep size=\mchoice{true,false,unless limits declared} (initially unless limits declared)}
+ In the default configuration \declaretext{unless limits declared}, unit rescaling may cause changes to the axis limits in order to keep the figure's size intact. However, only those limits which have not been declared manually are subject to rescaling: if you say |xmin=1|, only |xmax| and the limits for $y$ and $z$ are free to change.
+
+ Setting |unit rescale keep size=|\declaretext{false} will \emph{disable} the modification of axis limits altogether, i.e.\ axis limits will not be rescaled to compensate scalings on unit vectors.
+
+ Setting |unit rescale keep size=|\declaretext{true} will always rescale limits, even if they have been declared manually.
+
+ This key mainly affects |scale mode=scale uniformly|. This, in turn, is used for |axis equal| and |\addplot3 graphics|.
+
+ See also the addition documentation for this key and related examples on page~\pageref{key:unit:rescale:keep:size}.

+ The |scale uniformly| choice is implicitly used for |axis equal| and for the \verbpdfref{\addplot3 graphics} feature, see the documentation in Section~\ref{sec:plotgraphics3d} on page~\pageref{sec:plotgraphics3d} for its examples.

+\subsection{Technical Internals}
+{
+\tikzset{external/figure name/.add={}{techinternals_}}%
+
+This section describes keys which are usually set by internal routines -- it is typically unnecessary to use them. However, they may impose limitations or influence performance. Such cases are documented clearly in other sections of this manual. This here is the reference on the involved internals.
+
+\begin{pgfplotskey}{cell picture=\mchoice{true,false,if necessary} (initially true)}
+ This key is set automatically by \PGFPlots\ if necessary (for example by |set layers|).
+
+ Typically, \PGFPlots\ creates a so-called ``cell picture''. A cell picture is a separate picture which is typeset into a node. Finally, the node is shifted to fulfill special |anchor| requirements. The necessity for a cell picture is given if the |anchor| of an axis is only known after the complete axis has been drawn.
+
+ The initial choice \declaretext{true} means that \PGFPlots\ will create a cell picture for every axis. This allows all |anchor|s, but it is unsuited if multiple graphics layers are desired or if one wants SVG export. In order to create a cell picture, \PGFPlots\ interrupts the embedding |tikzpicture|, draws a new |tikzpicture|, and finally typesets the result into a node.
+
+ The choice \declaretext{false} tells \PGFPlots\ to draw its paths directly into the embedding |tikzpicture|. Such an approach is necessary if the axis shall use layers of the embedding |tikzpicture|. This is possible if and only if the |anchor| can be determined without actually drawing the complete axis. If so, \PGFPlots\ will modify the transformation matrix in advance. Note that axes with |cell picture=false| will \emph{contain} all the usual anchors -- the only difference is that the axis itsself can only use one of the following anchors for its alignment: |north|, |north west|, |west|, |south west|, |south|, |south east|, |east|, |north east|, |north|, |center|, |origin|, |above origin|, |left of origin|, |right of origin|, |below origin|.
+
+ The choice \declaretext{if necessary} will check if the chosen anchor is one of the list above. If so, it will use |cell picture=false|. Otherwise, it will use |cell picture=true|.
+
+\end{pgfplotskey}
+
+\begin{pgfplotskey}{clip mode=\mchoice{global,individual} (initially global)}
+ This key controls how \PGFPlots\ implements the |clip=true| feature (which is on by default). Its primary motivation is control where markers are placed: are markers on top of everything else (choice |global|) or are they overdrawn by following plots (choice |individual|)?
+
+
+ The choice \declaretext{global} tells \PGFPlots\ to install one single clip path for the complete picture\footnote{The choice \texttt{clip mode=global} was the only supported clipping mechanism up to and including version 1.5.}.
+ In order to avoid clipped marker paths, any markers are processed after the clip path has been closed, i.e.\ on a separate layer (see |clip marker paths|). An unexpected side--effect is that marks are on top of plots, even if the plots have been added after the markers.
+
+ The choice \declaretext{individual} instructs \PGFPlots\ to install a separate clip path for \emph{every} |\addplot| command. Consequently, the plot will be clipped. But most importantly, its markers will be drawn immediately after the clip path has been deactivated.
+
+ An unexpected side--effect of |clip mode=individual| is that
+ \begin{enumerate}
+ \item the resulting pdf will be slightly larger due to the repeated paths,
+ \item custom drawing instruction like |\node| or |\draw| need to be clipped \emph{manually}: use
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+ \begin{axis}[
+ clip mode=individual,
+ ]
+ \addplot+[samples=3] {x^2};
+
+ \begin{scope}
+ \clip \pgfextra{\pgfplotspathaxisoutline};
+
+ \draw (axis cs:-20,15) -- (axis cs:20,15);
+
+ \draw (axis cs:-20,20) -- (axis cs:20,20);
+ \end{scope}
+
+ \addplot+[samples=2] {x};
+ \end{axis}
+\end{tikzpicture}
+\end{codeexample}
+ \noindent to install a custom clip path around your |\draw| instructions for such a use--case. Here, the path instruction |\pgfplotspathaxisoutline| results in a path of the axis outline, i.e.\ the path which is used for the background paths or for clipping. Since it is a basic level macro, it needs to be encapsulated by |\pgfextra|.
+ \end{enumerate}
+
+ Note that |clip marker paths| can lead to the same result as |clip mode=individual| if the plot does not reach the boundaries.
+\end{pgfplotskey}
+
+\begin{pgfplotskey}{compat/show suggested version=\mchoice{true,false} (initially true)}
+ If enabled, \PGFPlots\ will show you which value for |compat=|\meta{version} results in the largest active feature set and highest quality.
+
+ This key will generate a warning if the current version is so old that the quality degrades seriously.
+
+ The notification will be printed to your |.log| file (during |\end{document}|).

+\PGFPlots\ does a lot of computations ranging from abstract coordinate computations to low level |.pdf| drawing commands (implemented by \PGF). For complex plots, this may take a considerable time -- especially for 3D plots.
One possibility to reduce typesetting time is to tell \PGF\ to generate single, temporary |.pdf| (or |.eps|) documents for a subset (or all) graphics in one run and re-use these temporary images in successive runs. For \PGFPlots, this is the most effective way to reduce typesetting time. It can be accomplished using the |external| library described in Section~\ref{sec:pgfplots:export}.

+ SCALING PROBLEMS in 3d:
+
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item
+ the plot box ratio and axis equal feature both need to imply \verb|scale mode=scale uniformly|. But it is still wrong; even if one activates the correct scale mode.
+
+ The problem: the axis equal stuff operates on the projected unit vectors and applies different scalings.

+\begin{bug}
+ Using square brackets as first char inside of \verb|\legend| leads to a failure: \verb|\legend{[\ion{Ne}{2}],...}|.

+ Potential fixes: (a) redefine \verb|right of origin| and its friends for 3d; (b) do not use the \verb|right of origin| things, prefer \verb|rel axis cs=1,0.5,0.5|. Problem: \verb|rel axis cs| must know where the fractions to find the origin (keep in mind that a rel axis value of $0$ means ``lower end'').
